I think now possibly Greece. Used to be Italy followed by France imo.

The Israely players on GG are ****ing bad, especially in omaha where they reg with 15-20BB lol and VPIP 100.

Honestly, there wasnt much thought process I think. It was 7 am and I was really exhausted from playing too much. Maybe I just wanted to create some sort of clickbait or make the title more cool and stick out. But as madlex confirmed I tend to mess up on my titles. I also just like the term (is it a term??) and it grew on me ever since dnegs said it in his dexter/rastafari impersonation. Ja mon!, the pokahs..lol

This is en excellent edited video btw I think from Thomas (srslysirius). Go to the 25 second mark or watch the whole thing its funny. Yes he made some genius videos.


Here the original:

I said I busted out to not over, lol. I actually know it was to a guy, his name is botteon.

Im not sure if we are allowed to speak of busting in any other context here. Maybe this isnt the right place to talk about favourite pornstars. Maybe in another thread and different section. But this cracked me up lol, thanks!

This is a very interesting article. Im not sure if its a misprint or a troll but the date of this article says January 1970? Whats up with that?

Thanks for your answers guys!
I tend to like it when I see eastern european players on my tables, because some of them are just bad players imo. Of course when I scope some, they are stone heart killers at times. I think it has to do with general infrastucture and education systems.

They have very few high rollers that you can see at the high rollers events sometimes. Overall I think youre right, there isnt as many.


Agreed, imo you could sense that after BF.

I kind of agree with you here, as when I see players from china on my tables they are not playing all gto but I was unpleasently surprised at times of the level of play they are capable of. I think chinese players are improving now, a lot.

Finland and Belarus has so many strong players right now. Also bad ones. But when I see Belarus it makes me go on high alert.

Thanks for the input, I didnt even know finland had a really bad war. Pretty ignorant of me. Ill google it later.. I knew some poeple that were from finland or were living there. They were all wealthy. The fins make a lot of money and are not stupid, true.


I kinda get the same sense. There are a whole lot of bad players and then there is the elite high end. Overall I think they are getting signifcantly better.


lol, I havent seen many or any players from vatican city yet. They could be vpning.

lol

Thanks I honesly am not impressed by lot of players from that section, the eastern europeans, Bulgaria, Romania etc. There are always huge exceptions but yeah.


Yes, sorry I didnt put much thought into it to be honest and wasnt too impressed myself after I read it. The content could be wealth of information though.

Thanks, I dont think there there is anything racist by judging the player pool by cultural backgrounds, gdp and systems. I think some rich european countries dont value the money too much and are playing very splashy for instance, so do some wealthy Americans.


Agreed to france and I am really upset I cant play on winamax anymore.

I will stop to try to reply to every post, sorry guys that was a lot.

Midnight GMT on 01/01/1970 is the beginning of the Unix Epoch where Unix Time started with a value of 0. So that's what a date field defaults back to absent any other input.

Mod note: Thanks for keeping it funny and lighthearted so far. Please keep it that way (aka racist free) so we can keep the thread open for a bit.

If you see Germans now at Pokerstars you probably see a bunch of fish.

No way a reg will play with a panicbutton for any serious money.

I'm just going to ask where washoe is from and go with that.

lol. Ah cmon Pete mate, I think you know I am german.

But the irony of your post is that I was just about to say, I think the biggest donkfishes are from the UK in online poker. So maybe I have to change eastern European to British as the worst. And I love the british.

Lets say we had nations cup again. Who would be playing for the UK?

Team UK:
Steven Chidwick
Sam Tricket
Fintan Hand
Charly Carrel
Luke Schwartz
Roland De Wolfe
Liv Boeree

vs

Team Germany:
Fedor Holtz
Ben Rolle
Ole Schemion
Stefan Sontheimer
Christoph Vogelsang
Dominik Nitsche
Rainer Kempe
Tobias Renkemeier
Koray Aldemir

As much as I love you british I would put my money on the germans. I think it would be close. Superclose.
The current Main event winner is german, as was Pius Heintz a few years ago.
Im not telling you anything new and its not really fair as Gemany has more inhabitants.

Thank you madlex!

The panicbuttons are not only on stars for the germans. They are not the really a problem. A problem are the other regulations, i.e. deposits, amount of tables allowed etc.

let's just say it was the final nail

I think it is a good thing for me.

OMG I forgot Spraggy in this list. Sorry Spraggy.

You know whats best for you. Real professionally you can still do it somehow, or gotta move to vienna or some other place.

I hope this is the obscure reference I think it is.

I would've bet Boston

Crikey. Where to start on this one?
Ok.

Ensan isn’t German, he’s Iranian. He moved to Germany in his mid 20s.
Fintan Hand isn’t from the UK.
Ever heard of Matt Ashton? He won the 50k PPC, something no German ever has done. Not a surprise - the German hive mind and bankroll only functions for NLH.
Ever heard of Chris Moorman? Toby Lewis?
How come no German has won 2 EPTs? A UK player has, and she’s a rec.
You’ve also forgotten the fastest triple crown winner.
I could go on...

USA#1

...in everything, this too

worst players are belgians.Literally no other option just to limp every single hand

lol. Whats he saying? I dont get it. eels?
