Surely that ChicagoJoey tweet was a level? You think he was being serious?

I got a violation for it
we had a rules change on this - you can put it in your location.

sorry for the confusion. i know the rules can seem ambiguous and unfairly applied, since not every mod comes down as hard as every other.

But really, it's more about Josio being smart, and not wanting to argue with someone who is likely going to be giving him money. No reason to spoil that action.
I agree.

the obvious reason is that you want to treat isildur with a little bit of respect because as long as he likes playing you he will continue to play you. Isildur have quit some ppl for the the fact that he absolutely hates that player/s tho, almost never because he is outmatched.


Could be also that he actually believes isildur(well, I would also, he really shouldnt strike anyone as the dude that pulls moves to angle back a few bb's considering he cannot possibly care about the money that much if he plays 1k/2k in games he haven't even played before.)

Does Isil always raise pot or only when he's tilted? It's a pretty bad leak to show you're committed always.

They would lose some self-respect if they had any left in the first place.

How do you guys dont get it. Rungood or runbad has nothing to do with how good player you play against. You only win more or lose more depending on your opponents.

To simplify: You go flip 10 times against a good playe and win all of them. Rungood.

You flip 10 times against a monkey and lose all of them. Runbad.

Or any other variation in which the wins are not 5-5 (+-0EV) is either good run or bad run.

That is only to demonstrate what rungood or runbad means (small sample also with only 10 allins). There is obviously rungood and runbad other than all-in EV, which is harder to determine. But the point is your luck is not dependent on your oppponents. You winrate obviously is, which consists of your luck and your skill level opposed your opponents luck and skill level.

lol havent noticed that feature yet
thx and ur %100 right.jeans doesnt need to use it at all..he is the true definition of luckbox..
but he is also a very good player..

Oh wow, the run it twice feature is here. Does anyone know what stakes it is available at?

I wonder which high stakes regs will use it. I also wonder if it indicated which players have the feature enabled. This might change decisions in pushing big draws. I remember Barry G said in an interview he didn't like to run it twice, because he wanted players to be aware that if they got in a big pot with him they would be playing once for everything.
