I believe PLO is higher variance.

I don't think any sng's is played for only rakeback because you don't pay into rake even close that much then you pay into cash games for same time period of playing.

Maybe. Usually. This question is way too vague and broad to be answerable. it's like asking, "Should I invest in stocks?"

1/2 no limit Every one folds to my buttom I have qj of spades I raise to 8 and the small blind calls big blind folds the flop comes 10 9 8 of hearts sb checks I bet 12 sb raises to 32

at this point I know he bluffs a lot i could of raise but went for a call the turn is a k he bets 65 at this point i could be drawing dead but i was thinking to myself if he really had a big hand like a flush he would of bet less it felt like he was trying to buy the pot so i call

the river is a 10 spades really bad card he bets all in for 150 at this point most of the time im drawing dead so i when into tank for about 3mins and began to process the hands he could have i didn't put him on the set cuz i know he would of raised me post flop with 10s 99s or 88s and i know he would of bet less on the turn with hands like qj hearts j7 hearts and flushes also he would of bet less for hans like 10 9 10 8 10 7 qj j7 on a scary board for value when the river was a 10

his all in bet didn't make sense to me except missing his flush with hands like a or k of hearts or a completely bluff so i went with my read and called with a straight he turns over K heart and 2 spades exactly what i put him on.

Hey, I am using HEM1 and have somehow managed to turn off the feature that allowed you to mark the hand whilst playing, so that you could later look through all your marked hands.

I have a had a look around but can't seem to find how to turn it back on. :S

Can somebody tell me what's the point of poker networks? Cake for example seems to have around 35-50 different poker rooms, why not just keep it as one big poker room like PokerStars?

I believe these 35-50 poker rooms are some small betting sites that have internet poker as a side feature. So are these betting sites that are in the same network all owned by same company or is Cake the betting sites' partner that gives them the poker client, in which the betting sites can put their own skins & logos on?

Also can people from different poker rooms play against each other if these poker rooms are on the same network?

Why do some companies have franchises while others are entirely corporate owned (Wal-Mart vs Costco)?

Usually, but it depends. Some skins share only some or none of their player pool.

A sit & go is a tournament that starts as soon as a specific number of players have registered. As opposed to a scheduled tournament which starts at a specific time regardless of the number of players (unless cancelled because there are too few players).

Weird indeed. I'd e-mail PokerStars staff. I doubt many players here know since that ChromeStar is such a new thing. Seems like a bug to me, but dunno.
