Holy [censored].

Pokerstars support is amazingly fast.

A++++++++ I'm actually almost dumbfounded that they got back to me within about 4 hours.

What are echecks -- is this to cashout directly to your US Bank Account?

Yep, money goes exactly to and from your bank account from via a third party. THe Subject line on the bank statement says PStars.

It says they are going to hopeuflly make this available to all US players (old and new), but since I had used it before UIGEIGAIGEIAEG whatever its called, they are letting me use it now.

However, when I deposited on FullTilt using my debit card the transaction showed up in my online statement immediately. I deposited some money last night and nothing has shown up as of yet. It may be a physical check that gets processed (I think Bodog used to have, may still have something similar). When I did something like that through Bodog the bank called me every time to approve (different bank than I have now though).

I just played with the biggest fish I have ever seen in PLO tables.

First I just had one PLO1000 table open for observing purposes where three regulars were playing. Then there hops in this completely new SN in the game. He takes $833.95 to the table (so full BR obv). In the very first hand he gets it in pre-flop with QJ72 against AAXX and some third premium hand and wins the hand with luck. He has now something close to $2300 stack and immediately leaves after that first hand.

I am just about to close the client when I see him now being in a PLO200 full ring table, which plays about 6 handed at the moment. I decide to sit in, when I see that he somehow has close to $700 stack at the table and there are also some other unknowns, which is usually a sign of bad players. And oh boy what a player he was. Here are his stats from the hands he played in that table before busting his account:





I was able to get a net of $500 from that spew, EVEN THOU this did happen against him at the beginning (86/14 on the flop for me):

Pot Limit Omaha Ring game
Blinds: $1/$2
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $200.00
UTG+1: $406.60

MP3: $20.00
CO: $77.05
Button: $38.20
SB: $198.00

Pre-flop: (9 players) HERO is MP2 with A K A 4
UTG raises to $8, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, HERO raises to $36, 5 folds, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls.

Flop: 7 A 9 ($112, 3 players)
UTG bets $25, UTG+1 calls, HERO raises to $212, UTG calls all-in $139, UTG+1 folds.
Uncalled bets: $48 returned to HERO.

Turn: 5 ($465, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $465)


River: 8 ($465, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $465)


Results:
Final pot: $465
HERO shows A K A 4

WOW... this is easily the worst hand i've ever seen played.
Guy claimed he was folding A-high flush on river. I didn't believe him so I told him to put it on pokerhand.org

I guess he was telling the truth...

hand would be funnier if he had the 6 in his hand and didn't realise he couldn't be beaten. I guess he could be lying anyway.

Colddecker, was it someone with a screenname similar to werri20? I saw that guy do about $8K over 2 hours on 3 tables of $5-5 at ongame once, never seen him again. 'I have a pair? Ok I raise the pot. You're reraising me the pot? Well, I have runner runners, I'll put you all-in.'

Second hand's a cooler, and it's funny that you lost to quad 7s twice, but you played the first hand really bad. First off, you should be leading the flop, rather than letting weak trips check behind, and the turn raise is terrible. You're behind way more than 50% and a good player will lay down AA easy there.

probably.

This is HU against a bad aggro opponent and one card beats me. How am I behind way more than 50%?

This guy DEFINITELY wouldn't have.

Well, in the first place, according to my quick calculations, there are 15 times as many combinations of 7xxx as there are combinations of AAxx in this spot. And the turn bet size is more consistent with a 7 than with AA anyway.

Against a standard opponent, check/fold > bet/fold > check/call >>>>>>>>>> check/raise. If you want to argue for check/call or bet/fold against a total donk fine, but C/Ring's still ridiculous.

mostly i just wanted to complain about losing to quad 7's two hands in a row. I'm not at all saying I played the hand well. But, his betting / calling range is much wider than 7xxx or AAxx without question.
