i just openshove AA and limp the rest of PPs, works for me quite well ^^

ah yeah, and just shove sets on the flop, ppl call with all sorts of garbage

so basically you're set mining? what about KK, QQ, AKs, you don't open raise any of those??

HM1 update disabled it, FU Arty - I'm pretty sure this is your way to get me back for stealing your blinds.

Anyway, I'm not sure I like playing without a HUD. The game itself is certainly fast, I think multitabling Zoom 6max will be pretty cooooollll (Cartman voice). I also managed to mash the Fast Fold button by mistake with AKs, not for the last time I imagine. Not sure about overall fishiness yet.

Sorry about the HEM problem, Mr Beer. You managed to import the hands afterwards, I trust?

At first I didn't think I'd miss the HUD because I've colour-coded every single player I've ever sat with. And yet there were a thousand players on Zoom I've never seen before. I think I need to put in more volume. The 2NL player pool on Stars is MASSIVE. :/

i love how you can buy in to up to entries at the same cash "table" and you can also shortstack, double up, then leave the table and buyback in to the same table for min buyin again

i want to cooler those guys, and that just doesnt happen if i raise with KK, they all fold, except the miners, and i get only the prefloppot or i loose my cbet to a hit from them

you wont believe how many idiots i stacked who where in the blinds and had no choice but to stack off on certain boards

where i can just muck my KK if theres any serious action going on(of course i get it AI if one 3bets another one and its my turn)

also ppl dont fold to any flopbets with any sort of hand at all, so why just dont cooler back at them? they think they are king with there rivered trips and you show them the nutfull

with AA its a different story, because you get calls from Axs, any pair(for 100bb lol), and some random broadwaygarbage and they dont 4bet this, but they'll stack off with it pre if you just shove on them

and with AKs i WANT a multiwaypot, so i can stack those ******s with there 92s

So far the only people calling my shoves on the flop when I have a set are the people with higher sets or nut flush draws, lost about 6 buy-ins from this so far...

No . No need to apologise Arty, I'm just ****ing with you. I am bit irked with HEM though.

And yes, say hello to a million unmarked 2NL players, I think a lot of higher stakes peeps are trying out Zoom at 2NL.

nl2..

Anyone got HEM 1 working with Zoom yet?

When I hold CTRL and + left mouse fast fold, it isnt showing the hand result. Anyone else got it working?

Any strategies yet? It seems to me like you only make $ coolering people.

It only seems to work if I CTRL + FOLD (Not quick fold) when already in a hand/

Sweet, just lost AA vs A5o, flop 858, raise 3/4 he shoves, turn 5. **** goldstar donkey if that was one of you you can gfy

In other news, ZOOM!!! FKYYYAAAA

The mind boggles at some of the hands I see gold star, Platinum star and supernova players playing. They call a raise pre with complete **** - that I can handle, they are fishing to stack me on an unlikely flop. what *really* pisses me off is when they float the cbet with nothing and runner runner me. I mean WTF? How can it be profitable to play that way? The answer is, it ISNT profitable and that they just got lucky. My problem though is that I expect high star players to do clever things to beat me, not **** things. If I played the way they are playing, I wouldnt be supernova, Id be busto. They should be too.

I think you'll find that the whole star system is a bug in zoom. Mine isn't even set to display but 90% of the time it displays and with random amounts of stars. So, I'd just ignore it.

lost about 3-4 buy-ins to suckouts/coolers its pure gambling with no reads

Lol that might just be whats going on. Obviously not complaining that people are playing garbage but some of the hands Ive lost tonight have been ridiculous. Guys calling pot sized flop bets with 22 on a AA9 board and hitting their deuce, raise KQs late pos vs limper, KJ9r board, oh of course he has K9o... lol

i think tomorrow ill play some PLO that should be fun

another session just finished about level took some horrendous beats but made up for it with AA > AK twice. Nit it up and shove aces FTW!

"Do you really want to leave the hand replayer?"

THE HAND REPLAYER? Yeah I think I'm fine with that omg so tilting. Zoom is great, but that is really starting to make note-taking a ****ing chore.

Yeah I noticed that straight away.

'Do you want to leave the replayer?' LOL. WHAT?

Cant believe they dont have this fixed yet.

yeah it seems like a bug, it had me as a pokerstars pro for a bit yesterday...and i'm far from that

Yeah whoever was SB yesterday was a team pro.

too much moaning about standard beats itt.

How do I convert a Zoom hand? Can't convert them here or in the deuces cracked converter.

nah,

you make money by valuebetting. Just play good solid poker.

I can't comment on the fishiness compared to non-zoom because I haven't played non-zoom 2 NL but this is very fishy.

+1.

- Don't over-adjust
- Don't think that just because it's Zoom you have to play at breakneck speed. -
- Take time over decisions, make lots of notes
- Don't let this song get stuck in your head
