How do you rebuy for 2 starting stacks in a tournament on FT? When I rebuy it gives me only 1500, and I just noticed a guy rebuy for 3000.

Can't seem to post hands anymore? I used to all the time. Now the converter is different. All I do is right click the hand in HEM and go to Copy hand to Clipboard just the the converter says to do but it won't convert it? What am I doing wrong?

yes there are better regs, but there are alot more fish too. play your normal game or a little tighter than normal until u can adjust

i dont know if there is such a thing? all major sites are quite similar imo on the hands per hour.

there is a double rebuy option or else just click rebuy twice. sometimes u can only add-on after you have dropped below 1500, so once u are in the big blind if u click the rebuy/add-on you can get another 1500

thanks for the advise!


I have two big hole in my knowledge, i hate matematics so i have never tryed to learn calculating odds. I would like to learn it. I was looking for something in the memorable threads but i havent found it. I need something like a basic lesson from calculating odds fast. It could be fine some excell too.


I would like to leard set up ranges too. please post me any article about these knowledges, something what helped you to start calculating odds and set up villains ranges.


I have printed out a lot of memoable threads, like a f*cking golden mine for my brain. some of the theories sounds like advises from a wise samurai. I dont want to befog the game but i could never imagine soo much theory behind poker. These threads open my eyes that i havent paid attention to the human factor in the game.

Hi im new to the forums and i would like someone to explain what this means E.g quote " my stats are 15/17/3.5 for that game" i would like know what the abbreviations for each stat are, what the numbers mean and whats good and whats bad as i keep reading this term everywhere from different posters but dont have a clue what it means. (the numbers i wrote were just random so may look incoorect or silly)

Ive been playing poker a while and am a winning player at micro stakes but have only just started learning about holdem manager and poker huds and alot of the poker jargon/abbreviations is baffling me. Thanks.

Beginners Forum Frequently Asked Questions

thanks. really helpful.

When playing an 9man SNG are there any situations preflop which justifies calling (after the rise, I never limp) rather then 3betting ? When playing cash games I learned that as a TAG rising / 3betting are always a better choce and when my hand is not good enough to 3bet I shuld dump it.

Also, what would be the correct 3 bet size on early / middle / later stage of the game ?

Didnt want to start a new thread over this, I was beating NL10 at 6.5bb/100 over 40k hand sample, however the past 5 days I have run terrible, and lost over 13 buy ins (11 buyins under ev), I took a break for 3 days came back and dropped back down to NL5, and yet again I had a losing session. So basically Ive been downswinging for 15k hands..

Just wondering could I have been on a heater for those 40k hands and im actually a losing player.. its just got me doubting myself.

probably a combination of a heater and bad run and you're somewhere in the middle. that winrate was probably unsustainable, but you're saying that you're running under ev so meh, split the difference

I recently purchased Poker Tracker Micro Stakes version. I imported all 75k hands or so that I have played. I have played basically every type of game from 2nl-25nl. I have played 6max and FR regular and 6max and FR Rush. I have also played some ante games.

My primary game has been 5nl 6max and 5nl 6max rush. While the 6max games are the vast majority of my hands, I have played enough (10k hands I'd say), of games that are not 5nl 6max that I feel have made a significant impact on my total winnings.

Poker Tracker has filters that you can use to only view your stats and graphs on certain limits and game types. Should I just have it report on every game that I have played, or should I filter it to report solely on 5nl 6max?

On a related note, is there a way I can see how many hands at each specific game type I have played on Poker Tracker?

I'm in a 1/2 cash game with an OESD holding QJ - on the turn the board is:

KT35 ....

there's 20 in the pot and the villian bets 10 making it - the pot = 30. Am I getting 4:1 or 3:1? I ask do I include my bet in calculating those odds (making pot after my call 40 I'm getting 4:1)? Or is it just 30 getting 3:1 - and btw that's not sufficient odds even if I think he has a K I can get his stack - he's pretty tight. Is this a good call?

the board is complete rainbow...

you need to pay 10 to win 30, which is 3-1

what does ''hof'' stand for? should know, ive been posting here long enough but i dont know

In the quick reply box, there is an icon with a mountain and sun, click that and add the link to your image

It skiped the last few characters

Profanity filter is censoring the filename.

Whatever the image is, you should probably think twice about posting it.

Nah. it is just that I didn't register with Imageshack, and it works perfectly well now .
