ehhh, not a real problem. glad you found the info you wanted.

Mod edit: (removed poster's content) This poster has a "history" of wanting to make trades before he has established himself as a regular 2+2 member. He has been sent PMs from a trading moderator (MH) detailing the reasoning behind the 2+2 policy......yet poster still persists.

Hopefully...... with time will come enlightenment.

Hi,

I am new to poker and have been playing a few very low micro stakes MTT. can anyone help me with the below?

I was playing a bounty tournament and open jammed 88 on the button for 22bb. SB had 9bb (min bounty). BB had 35bb. Is this a massive mistake? Should i never shove 22bb?

Small blind folded and big blind called AA and held:

Is there any software you can use to see whether it is right or wrong?

Thanks in advanced

Seems unexploitable in a vacuum but that doesn't mean there aren't more profitable ways to play it. In a bounty event I probably jam too

Is there anywhere on the forum where I can share my poker website/blog?
I've been browsing and can't seem to find any place where it would not be totally weird or against the rules to post it.

Create a 2+2 blog/thread in House of Blogs. However there is policy in place that you should be aware:

This forum is for posting your blog on 2+2. It's not for linking to blogs posted on other sites -- including links to VLOGs posted on other sites -- if you want to do a non-poker VLOG, embed the video in your thread here, don't simply link it. Please do not include outside links in your posts. Thanks.

Well I wouldn't be posting a blog here on 2+2.
I have my own website which I would link to. So if I understand those guidelines that wouldn't be allowed?

Correct

edit: You should also look at the "rules" related to posting in Poker Goals and Challenges HERE

Also states:
So I guess I just can't post my blog on this forum?

Correct, you can not link to your off-site blog. (You have a link in your profile that I believe is the one and only correct way to steer traffic to your blog).

If you would like to have the rule changed, you can start a discussion in About The Forums. Perhaps try a Search in that forum first is my only recommendation.

Nah it's fine, was just wondering if there was any place that allowed it.
It would probably be overflowing with links to websites though ...

IMHO, lots-of-links is not a huge issue for me.....as long as they come from established posters. But not my rules around here....I let the owners of the site dictate what they want.

((As an aside, I ALWAYS nuke a new poster that has a link in one of his first coupla posts. 99.9985846% are spammers.))

Hi i want to play poker can someone give me beginer guides link here

At the top of the main Beginners Questions page you will find one Announcement and four Stickys. These five threads will get you started toward learning poker and learning how the 2+2 community and forum operate.

Good luck.

If you read the first post in this thread, you will come across this statement:

That also applies to all the other threads in Beginners Questions.

Welcome to the forum.

Does anyone know what hand Imsirovic could have were he folds 500 more to win 230,500? Shouldn't literally any two call here? Even the nut low 2 3 call for a chop? I know there's something to be said about having a single chip in a MTT but this is nowhere even close to the money

Where and how would I report someone trying to resell me poker courses through PM?

Yeodan, contact Mat Sklansky or Bobo Fett. Either of of them can look into it.....though I must say I don't think there is much that can be done to help you other than to gather information (copies of PMs) to assist with you lawsuit.

Have you read 2+2 TOC? Anything in there that makes such a practice illegal on this site?

Although....they will probably have a sympathetic heart as it involves intellectual property.....

A lot of live tournaments now are playing with a BTN or BB ante. This means that when a player is not in one of those positions in the next hand, they stand to win several BB off a tiny fraction of one, giving tiny chip amounts far more value than they otherwise would have even considering ICM.

Not a dumb question btw.

Ok, I'm not a beginner, but have almost not been playing att all for a couple of years. PokerStars has changed the way to display bounties. I know very well how it works, but this makes no sense: Let's say it is a $100 tourament (PKO) and ignore the fee here. 50% goes to the price pool and 50% to the bountypool. But att start everybody has only $25 att the table and nothing in the playerlist. If player A eliminates player B he should get $25 to his account and his bounty should ingrease by $25 to $75. Now this seems not to be the case. Player A only get $12.50 and ingreases to $37.50....Where did the rest of the money go? Both players have donated $25 to somewhere.

Are you sure you're not looking at a $50 donkament? The rest of the figures you use make perfect sense if it is

I am sure it was $100. I checked again and it's the same in every fkn PKO.
Half of the bounty pool has disappeared like a fart in the wind. Whether I am stupid or something weird is going on.

Maybe it's just displaying what you'd actually take off the table (and the equivalent that'd be added to your bounty), rather than everything in one?

I’m a little confused about the math aide of things. I understand that you need to account for you’re equity versus the pot size so you can make +ev plays, but this logic tends to fall apart at a live cash game of 1/3 nl. Since everyone uses denoms of 5, people will bet 10 as a small bet, 20 or 25 as a large, 50 for a very confident bet, etc. The exact bet size seems to have no bearing on math, just what feels right to whoever is betting based on what’s been consistent at the table thus far.

As well, equity seems to fall completely apart too. When people’s range is “almost anything”, your Ace King suddenly doesn’t look too good, because any one of the four people who are in the potty in the flop could have made a pair, two pair, straight or flush draw, etc. So yes, I get that theoretically onlymplaying the best hands should lead to long term success, but what happens is that you will wait for hours to get a premium hand, bet 20 preflop, and c-bet to score a small pot, if everyone didn’t already fold preflop.

Basically, it feels like everyone at the table just wants to play flop lottery, making it very difficult to win with just luck, as it almost always seems like at least one person has made the nuts every flop.

Maybe reread the answers you got in the Beginners Question thread you started a while back.

Also, my advice is only that....my advice. I am no poker guru.

Good Luck
