Yeah. Go play 6m you'll be even more disappointed. Does anyone play on lock?

4b is the new 3b.

6m is the new fr. lol @ nl25fr being aggro, its a passive bitch fest with fish never calling river bets without the nuts and tight regs who occasionally make an unbalanced play

6m is easier than FR nowadays on Merge.

I think FR is easier. 6-max has always been beatable for a higher WR but harder to play because of higher aggression and wider ranges. But then again, there are way more 6-max games to play than FR which makes it easier to select good games so you might be right.

Does anybody here still use HEM 1? I'm trying to find the update for it since the BCP upgrade. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

It's on their downloads page. I've been using PT4 but the beta is suppose to be ending soon so I might go back to Holdem Manager, not sure yet though. I like Holdem Manager a little more but it runs so slow on my PC and PT4 is actually pretty smooth and doesn't seem to use too much memory.

since the software update my wr is -8.3 ptbb/100 on saturday and sunday on merge over 8.4k hands. if you throw in the saturday and sunday before that so you're looking at the month of june, my wr is -7.8 ptbb/100 over 13.5 k hands. that is 7 BIs at 25 nl and 14 BIs at 10nl. that is pretty much impossible. over the 100k hands before that I was at 2.4 ptbb/100.

so if merge isn't rigged (and I'm pretty sure it is, I noted that the shuffle was different from ftp months ago), it's rigged against me. and since I was one of the biggest winners at 10nl prior to the update that was designed to make it harder to multitable in virtually every way, and merge is brought to you by the country if not people who gave us daniel tvetzkoff, and I haven't forgotten how to play, I'm perfectly fine with assuming that I'm being cheated.

[ ] pretty much impossible to lose 21 buy ins in 13.5k hands.

Maybe, just maybe, variance is catching up to you. Why on earth would they make the software harder to multitable?

also, why are you just measuring in terms of saturdays and sundays?

why did they hide the HU tables?

we can discuss why if you really like, but it's irrelevant to the fact that they did. you can go down the list of changes one by one and almost every single change made it harder to do so.

and if -8 ptbb/100 over 13k hands is variance catching up with me, I must have been running like god before, at ~2.4/100

I thought it was accepted that the tables are softer on the weekends

Anyone kind enough to sweat me 25NL? Been a year since I played and I am pretty sure I am spewing money but dunno where.

I have no idea why they hid the HU tables, but the rest is false. Obv the update didn't go so well, but they're asking regulars now upgrades to make. Why would they do that if they didn't want ppl multitabling? I'm interested in hearing your reasons why they would want this. And it's very possible you were running good before and poorly now, why is that so hard to believe? 13k hands is nothing.

sure it is, but why does that matter for the reasons you posted about your run? how have you been doing on the other days?

also i now know who you were on ftp so i'm kinda shocked you're getting all worked up about losing $300 and being $100 below ev

The real question is why are you playing 10nl?
***OFFICIAL MERGE POKER REGS THREAD*** Quote

Hiding the HU tables is good for the FR and 6-max games. Recreational players are more likely to just play something else instead.

Hold'em's a 4-street game. Playing "perfect" stats - whatever the F that is - pre-flop doesn't mean anything postflop.

yeah was gonna post that too. thought it was pretty lol that you posted pre flop stats like it makes much of a difference.

I posted the pf stats just to give a general idea of my playing style, if I was playing 19/16 obv I'd expect more variance. I know there's no such thing as perfect stats.
