hand histories like the one nofear47 posted makes me wonder why i'm so afraid to play higher stakes.

This is a pretty epic failure.

lmao again

Nofear, best hand I've seen in awhile.

lol nofear

+1

imo i played the hand well

lol... no you didn't. if anything, the other guy played it well.

but if this guy is willing to put all his chips in the pot with just an ace high... wouldn't it be better to just take this identical line when you at least have a pair?

i know nofear, its just real funny

yeah eric move up asap i go in with 3 hi all day long

Well I am involved in possibly the most boring heads up encounter ever.

Was trying to sit down at an $11 turbo hu sng and clicked on the $11.25 Hu deep no blind increases one instead.

Firstly it's the most boring game ever. I am playing against a guy called karlson89 who is 4 tabling these at the same time. If you look up his stats you will notice that he only ever plays these games and is $3k in profit from them over 90 days.

I was watching all the different games he was playing and it seems people were having the same problem as me having sat down at the wrong table by mistake. Instead of trying to beat him though they were going all in every hand and calling him every name under the sun through sheer frustration. I'm sure Karlsson doesn't mind though as they keep donking their money off to him haha.

Anyway I am sitting with 3418 against his 567 this now with blinds posted.

I have literally raised every pot bar really -ev hands like 52 62 72 etc.... to 50 and he has folded 90% of the time. If he comes along then continuation bet half the pot 50 and if he calls then check the turn and the river. If he goes all in or reraises or makes any sort of bet then he has the nuts so fold.

Hopefully I can win this but its taking ages.

Total ****ing waste of time.

I ended up in one of those and it took 3 hours! Literally 3 hours. Then when we were having a bit of banter in the chat straight after the game I pressed return which Stars interpreted as me accepting the rematch and ended stuck in another one

These guys prey on players who mean to join the turbos but end up there due to the ******ed Stars lobby jumping around.

Stars easily has the worst lobby ever coded. It's such ****. Combine that with the rest of their garbage software and I can't even stand to play there.

Is anyone here playing the $50s at Cake?
I've been playing there for like 3 weeks, i still can't work out if you can use HM but i kinda like playing without it. Also can you post hand histories and is there anyway i can look through my hands through some othe replayer if HM does't work?

Yeah there is without a doubt money to be made if you have the patience to play abc poker for 2 hours straight. They know what they are doing.

I can only begin to imagine how you must have felt when you pressed enter for rematch by mistake!

I moved my entire roll from Full Tilt to Stars last weekend but having second thoughts now. The lobby tilts me.

you can remove these from the lobby by typing "-increase" without the quote in filter

++++EV imo

Interesting that you bet 420 on the turn instead of just shipping it. Do you think you get more folds this way?

Yeah, I have a decent ammount of history vs this opponent. I think a push is fine but, imo the 2/5ish pot bet makes it look stronger thats what I would bet if I did have top straight or flush or 2 pair.

To all High Stakes Regs, how are the $100husngs on Full Tilt around 12pm-6pm est as compared to 6pm-2am est. I play during the 6pm-2am time frame and the games are ok, I get a good bit of fish. Now, if I start to add volume during the 12-6pm hours, what type of players can I expect to play. I would expect less fish but would like to know from someone who plays or has played the 100s on ftp during this time period of the day. Thanks for answers in advance.

anyone who wants to see the most whiny chat you have ever seen tune into me and tonimonntanas morning matches.

any news regarding the HU sng regs tournament?

Its set for july 19th at 7:30 est, there is a thread for it started by mersenneary. Are you in the tourney jenna?

probably first time ever i saw a pretty good fish sitting (who btw slowrolled me twice already so i soooooooooooo want to get him back) and didnt sit because i felt too tired to play =/ 'night all, keep powning

yes you are up past your bedtime. a growing 13 year old girl needs her sleep
