I know I don't buy a billion hands off PTR and uber nit it up for epeen winrates, but I work pretty hard on table selection as well. If I'm at a bad table it's only temporary as I feel it out.

just sit to daqs left, it IS a good seat. that is all i am saying. and if you are taking a seat to his right, you probably just sat where the fish was.

I just judge the quality of the games by how much work I have to do to get into good ones and tonight I had to work as hard as I can remember to get position on fish. That is all. Seemed like there were an extra amount of regs floating around as well and this was from 11pm to 2am EST.

I had to turn off placemint multiple times so I can place tables to my second monitor (where I normally only keep the lobby) because I couldn't decide which of the 7-8 tables I wanna keep (I never play more than 6 so if there are more good ones I ditch the worst ones, today there were multiple occasions where I had a hard time ditching any)

What level you guys talking?

At 2/4 the games were very good today/tonight imo. Couldn't always get the godseat but the fish were so bad it didn't really matter.

Sorry games were still crap. All the losing regs getting those milestones I'm guessing.

now looking back at my session I found two tables where I was sitting on the left of this guy:http://www.pokertableratings.com/sta...h/GarrinchaRDJ
whom I perceived as a full blown maniac because that's how he played for about an hour, 50/40-60/50is preflop 3betting anyone with any 2, then he calmed down and started to play 30/20 at which point I was all confused and left
maybe these were the bad tables Abso saw me at

lol Abso, you're just a little quicker to label people fish than some of the other posters here.

And La Peste is a nit for only seeking out the giant loose-passive 5+BB/100 losers while passing up tons of good spots.

On a related note, I saw one of the worst players in the Stars 10/20 have a game break around him and he was the last man standing yesterday. Apparently since his VPIP is under 30 and he plays frequently, none of the others thought he could possibly be a fish.

how much is that guy losing? I've yet to see a 30vpip guy lose more than 1.5-2BB/100 which isn't that awesome when chopped 5 ways

2.41 BB/100, and I'm sure it's way more when he's playing 2-4 handed since he's an awful tight/passive/foldy disaster. That guy should have a game whenever he wants.

just hate it when a few people get a few fish on their right and tell everyone how awesome tables are

When you have an 8 hour workday where there is like 20% of the normal people at the office and you have nothing to do, you will do anything to entertain yourself.

Elo,

Didn't he kind of own you a little there? Is he just thinking your flop call is a 4 or missed OCs and only way to get value is to c/c?

I felt completely soul-owned, actually. With that being said, I can have pretty close to anything after the flop action and I really don't think c/c is best. But when I saw his hand I wanted to cry, yeah.

I don't mind it so much when I lose because I'm taking beats or coolers or whatever, but these sessions when I just have no playable hands and am folding all the time and looking like a supernit really annoy me. In my last like 1500 hands at 500/1k I'm down 180 bets, which is not fun. At least I got to say "cool story bro" to DN.
