lol ure probably leveling, but i really didnt know cuz we dont have a word for it. anyways im brazilian and speak portuguese. txs anyway if leveling or not

i found this:

"Usage: A poker player who uses various underhanded, unfair methods to take advantage of inexperienced opponents. The difference between an angle shooter and a cheat is only a matter of degree. What a cheat or thief does is patently against the rules; what an angle shooter does may be marginally legal"



so basically, angleshooting is doing something imoral/unethical but not ilegal on the tables?
pretty cool that u guys seem to despise that. here in brazil, uf ure an angleshooter ppl will always take ur side, just because the rules are too.


brazilian poker sux!!! (players too)

yeah I believe its only the north american culture which has such a distaste for angleshooting,

many other places have a "if you can cheat you should" mentality

This is just wrong. Have you ever heard of samurais?

whats samurai's got to do with anything

lol 15k posts on 2+2 and you don't know what that refers to

While we are getting vocab lessons... What does "pooh bah" post mean?

I believe it's in reference to this

i see regs sit regs pretty often at turbo structure. turbo is much swings, and regs sit regs and then its some much variance.
im not bumhunter (they regs aren't good at 30-50lvl usually) but im just wonder why regs not sit regs in "reg structure" like in turbo

that's where the nits hide

god this is so annoying. i played a reg who seemed to be tilting pretty hard, spewing off money with midpair and stuff... now he seems to be intent on tilting his roll off at higher stakes. the catch being that he only plays 4mans so even if i felt like taking a shot at the $550s i'd still have to beat another reg to get any of that sweet sweet spew money. i'm gonna end up as tilted as he is at this rate

because they're dumb.

some of the regs have an edge on others but no reg will sit another - well at 50s or lower. there are a few that i will sit each time. actually there a couple of b/e regs that will sit others.

i think one of the things that makes reg speeds winning players less likely to sit other winning players is that the games go on much longer than at turbos - most regs are pretty nitty postflop in reg speed games (compared to turbos) since they're used to playing fish. i'm speaking from a Stars perspective btw; dunno about FTP.

the whole reason to deal with the longer structure in reg speeds is the big edge it gives versus fish. but when you're playing against another competent person, then the edge goes down enough that you might as well play turbos. i mean if your edge against a reg in a reg speed game is say 5% and your edge against a random in a turbo is 5%, then it's kinda ******ed to play a 30 minute reg speed game than a 10 minute turbo.

edit: one of my favorite regs to play has a 90% pfr and a 98% cbet. another guy has a 88% pfr and a 80%+ fold 3bet even though i 3bet him like 40% of the time. there are some really bad reg speed winning players.

edit 2: oh and also a decent amout of regs in normal speed games use a limping strategy (like 100/20) which makes the game go even longer. i'm looking at this one limping reg i used to play and our games average over 20 minutes each according to HEM.

oh godddd he just called off his whole stack with J-high on the flop. WHY CAN'T YOU PLAY 2mans LIKE A REAL PERSON

lol... link? reference? info?

Couldn't be arsed to change my bookmarks to the new HUSNG forum, so haven't been reading lately....but where did the whole challenge thing from borderline and palinca go? Borderline backed out I presume?

IMO that's better than playing a nit in reg speed where you grind them down to 5BB, they double up, rinse & repeat. Sure, losing a bunch of matches to a fish sucks but at least you're getting action and not about to slit your wrist because of boredom. Watching paint dry might be more interesting then playing someone with a 25%VPIP in reg speed.
