***Official Stars Regs Thread*** - Page 1047 - Small Stakes Shorthanded Poker

u must have a skewed idea of what a fish is, man. stars 3/6 is jumping with fish today/tonight

at least 2 60/2's at all 6 of my tables, less than an hour ago

well believe me I have a pretty good idea when stars games are good for a saturday night and when they aren't
when I'm playing for an hour and still 3tabling while playing on 2 sites because I can't get 6 good seats which on a normal thursday-sunday takes about 10 mins on average, well that means tables suck

haha, i dont do it on purpose, but i just dont understand the guys that think the 3/6 games are hard/theres no good games. its an impulse, not premeditated

and certainly not claiming i made 200 BB

I'm not saying there aren't fish around I'm just saying it's way less than avg for a weekend. Also I don't sit in games oop to the fish like you often do, I think you overestimate your edge in a game where you are OOP vs one 40/20 semifish vs 4 tags and 3BB/100 rake
in other news I just finished an 500 hand session with 39 won@sd so I think everyone who can still flop pairs should die

i dont overestimate it (i know its not great)

but id rather play 3 tables where im oop vs the fish and 3 tables where im in position vs the fish, than just 3 tables where im in position

hmm, 45k more vpps to reach 500k, I wonder if it's worth it to grind lower games to get there. It would be a free 4k minus whatever 50k fpps is worth (maybe about 800ish?).

im still confused by this, so if its a level its an awesome one. but it reminds me of a hand i played the other day for some reason, cant find the hand history.

guy raises on button, i 3b from the sb with q10o, he calls. flop is Axx 2 hearts. i bet he calls, i dont have a heart. turn in a jack, b/c, river is a king, b/c. he shows Ax with a flopped flush draw. i felt a little guilty about that one

you better not because I set out on the same goal and gave up after day three and 4k means a lot more to me than it does to you

so i say don't go for it!
