You are a fool

Well AQ is still top pair strong kicker, so you say it should still be folded to even if it's a pot sized bet? You are probably right, but I would be interested if you could elaborate why it should be folded?

We are assuming every grinder and recreational on the site suddenly decides to increase there number of tables to win a milestone Multi tabling is hard even more so whithout the correct software and tools so we assume they have access to these or go on a whim.

Is it possible that more then a few grinders who play on other sites might join in when there is money being given away? Is it also possible that not everyone finds multi tabling as hard as you do?

Now this is the essence.Let me address this its not more than a few grinders joining a site from another for a million to one chance.
Do I find it hard?You tell me Jedi! any player who multiples+20 tables is not useing software in order to facilitate this play.
THIS IS NOT MONEY BEING GIVEN AWAY.

IMO folding the turn there sucks. It is a 4bet pot. There's approximately $1 in the pot and there's only $1.50 behind and he bets $1. No way you can fold when you hit TP of A's. Of course, if we don't know much about him, then there is a pretty good chance he'll show up with AK a good amount of the time.

Really the problem is pre-flop. Getting into a 3betting/4betting war pre-flop when you don't know much about the opponent isn't great.

Of course ta 2NL you probably can 3bet AQ for value vs. unknowns, but vs. a 4bet I would think it has to be a fold. If you knew something about the opponent, then maybe a shove could be fine. Calling doesn't seem too good to me.

But I don't really have a 4bet calling range.

Again, what are the numbers? Are there 10% more players? 50% more? 2x more? 100x more?

It's not even remotely close to a million to one chance, so it's time to stop repeating that nonsense. And how is it not money being given away? Making a statement in all caps doesn't make it true.

A bunch of people actually start playing 24 tables just a bit before the milestone and just fold every hand until it is over.

Others play a lot of tables and don't fold every hand.

I read this three times. You missed some words or jumbled some words or something. The above quote is not understandable.

LOL this makes me chuckle how do they pay the milestone hand per 1M of hands dealt so from hand x 1M/1 hands later you have a milestone.LOOK the numbers up for yourself.
I will tell you this with no doubt your biggest site Pokerstars is a fraud from top to bottom.

And let me say 1 million/1 hands is free money its free money a million/1 lottery tickets you all winner of the highest prizes distributed and that is free money right.

Interesting post, what you say sounds logical to me. Thank you for your input

You have a strong hand, but up to this point Villain has represented a MONSTER. His minraise pre is a little dumb, but when he 4bets you, you should be suspicious. When he checks behind on the flop and pots the turn, he's almost never showing up with a hand that can't beat TPTK (K on the board makes your Q top kicker). I don't entirely disagree, and from a straight money standpoint I agree shoving's usually good here since we only have to be good ~37% of the time, it's just that lines like this SCREAM "Hello sir, please give me your money" to me. Better to bail and be out 26 bbs than shove and lose a stack the majority of the time.

So all this hand-wringing about all the extra players, and you actually have no idea whatsoever how many are playing. No surprise.

And if this is how you're getting your "one in a million" odds, LOL. Yes, if a person just played a single hand at any time with no idea where things were in relation to the milestone, their odds for that single hand would be one in a million. You think the extra player volume is explained by people coming to the site to play one hand? There is great awareness of when a big milestone is approaching - people start cranking up the number of tables they're playing as one approaches, and many are 24-tabling. Therefore, their odds are much closer to one in a thousand than one in a million.

Not sure what you are trying to say. Are you just stating that they pay a milestone every 1 million hands?
Does anybody know what meaning this sentence is trying to convey?

Milestones as in your words are free money a million/1 chance is not free money in my book clear.

No problem.

If you like discussing strategy in hands you should check out the strategy forums here. People are constantly discussing how to best play different hands.

Actually, that would still be "free money being given away" (which is what I said - not just that it's free money, as it's obviously only free money for the lucky winners), but of course people who are coming there to try to win aren't playing even close to a million to one shot, as I've told you many times already.

Does a 1 in 119 shot count as free money to you? Does it help explain why the volume of players goes up, or are you determined to hold to your point of view regardless of evidence shown to you?

THE HANDS ARE DEALT BY POKERSTARS AT 1M THIS IS WHEN A MILESTONE HITS.
Yes the player volume in regards to a lottery is far from explaining this no iI did not say one hand.GO look at the figures yourself the extra volume is not explained.

And your source for this information is?

According to you, milestones are free money. However, a million to 1 chance at winning money is not free money in my book.


^ I rewrote your thought. I think it is much easier to understand what you are saying when it is phrased and punctuated as I rewrote it.

But I don't know who the "you" is.

Look for yourself the data is out there.Er poker scout par exampler.

How would I do that? I don't have access to player volumes during the milestones. You're the one making the assertions - what are you basing those assertions on?

Goodnight fools we take existing facts and rework them to what you are trying to promote.You will also refuse to admit the simple fact milestone hands are dealt 1M.

Night Hitler.

Yeah I agree with this as well. I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for your input

Well done - make assertions, refuse to back them up when provided with contrary evidence, and then take your ball and go home.
