Hitting a rough downswing here, and was wondering if anyone sees some holes in my game. SN is thestraw0039 and I have been playing 3-6 and 5-10.

Games on stars are really rocky at the moment, 3-6 is full of new tag playing 18/12 type games. On one table the average pot was $6!

i'm so angry that i'm missing out on all of these promo-time games because of travel.

way too tight players everywhere. such beautiful low-variance easy to run over games.

07-03-2008 , 04:29 PM

great khan - boring nit
viettiger - tryptamean style tag
drarpadelo - should stick to huhu.

Great Khan is a terrible tilt monkey.

Sorry I can't help you, but maybe you'll feel better knowing that you have absolutely killed me in the last two weeks or so. Second biggest winner against me.

He's not "good" though either.
When I played him 6handed at 10/20 and 15/30 he was running at 50% 30% over a significant sample and went ape**** in the wrong spots. Imo a soft spot for sure.
07-04-2008 , 11:10 AM
eyegetpaid and skilledyou both have a winrate > 2 BB/100 hands in Q1 2008 at 10-20.
both played more than 20k hands.
skilled is 51/40 with a steal of 61%
eye is 47/28 with a steal of 52%

based on this there a 2 option:
- both do something right
- everyone makes something wrong against them

I guess if you have some good reads you can surely win money of them.
07-04-2008 , 12:03 PM
timoK. Interesting data. I agree with your second conclusion - I bet most people see their numbers on their hud and let their game go to ****. BTW, what is the sample size on that data?

I'll bet this is TooMuchAction from FTP fame. That guy beat the 15/30 game pretty handily.

Well, I played close to 20k hands at Stars 10/20 too and won like 2,87BB/100 but I kinda doubt that this is my true winrate in that games... But here is hoping

probably short of cash at stars trying to 24 table during the promo.

The slacker misses SNE in 6 months of 5*points and then gets a week of 7*points to finish it off. Running good.

OMG where did this Chinaboy goldmine come from?
If he continues to play any 2 sooted cards in 100% of situations, he can't continue to hit his flush 100% every time - can he?
07-05-2008 , 08:29 PM
chinaboy plays moderately well, but enjoys playing some fishy hands... suited cards, connectors, weak aces. he occasonally will run up his deposit and take shots in the big games

I've seen so many of his type at B&M casinos... It's hard to believe when they're winning, but they play better than some fish

Boc, this sucks I have no one to yell out to when I get "Slick" or "The Rockets!"

I might start posting in the LC thread every time I get them.

I'm having the same problem Mitch. Gotta let me know when you guys get a vacancy at that house.

I said something about having the crabs yesterday playing around my 2 brothers. They didn't think I was talking about having pocket 3s in a game of Texas Hold Them. It was weird.


eta: In the interest of full disclosure... I made that story up. You can imagine how weird that would have been though.
