even w/ very high rake, paying that 7k bet was incredible. i never ever thought that could happen.

stealthmunk, rake is 5% and its capped at 1,5k. btw its common find 5% uncapped rake in brazil, so w 1,5k cap we feel its ''cheap'' lol

    So a $20000 pot will have $1000 taken out of it?

    In the casinos I've played at in the US, a $20000 pot will have $4 taken out of it

      teddyKGB, what you mean?

      rake $100/hr would be a dream in brazil. but its impossible...

      poker games are NOT super underground. far away from that... poker clubs in brazil usually are located in very good area, close to the best places of the city. most of them has lot of luxury, with rich people having fun. if you are walking in street in front of one good poker club, you will see bmw, mercedez, maybe ferrari in front of the place. you will think that is a night club, maybe a great restaurant, or something like that.

      police knows that is a poker club, so don't need be hide...

      that being said, tournaments in brazil are OK w/ the laws. we have LAPT and BPT (brazilian poker tour) both from poker stars, this tournaments run inside big hotels like sheraton and others good places w/ police man making the guard and people from the governament seeing that. just cash games aren't 100% fine, but i guess this will change very soon.

      side note: in our culture, rules aren't made to be followed. i mean, rules aren't that important. so if isn't againt laws, doens't mean its illegal lol.

      Urubu, if you were to ever die. I would miss you

      Your posts somehow manage to bring me joy at all times of the day. It's amazing

      Flipping for a small finger? LOL, what a lunatic?

      When I meant 100/h, i meant 100/hand? Is that possible?

      These games must be super amazing for the poker clubs to be able to rake that much. Come to Australia bro, come play some rotation home games with $5 max rake... We complain that that is too high... LOL

      live game, mandatory stradle 100 on button.

      some limpers, i pot 600 w/ A983ds on CO. BTN flat call, SB make it ~2,5k, i flat, button flat.

      flop T53r, 8k in the pot. SB ck w/ 7k behind, i think ''fuuuu tilt etc'' and bet 6k. btn tanks forever and fold kings faced up. SB SNAP shoves, i call just 1k more.

      i got 2bdfd + bottom pair. i say ''i got pair of 3''. he replys ''you are winning by a mile''. and i insta reply ''hey bro, i don't have a set. just one pair of 3''. after i said that, i hear some sweet words ''as i said, you are winning by a mile''. i puke.. wtf?

      he shows QJ86. hmmm

      turn 9 , river blank. phew

      one more sick hand. on board 722hh everyone checks, on turn Ax player 1 bet pot (600ish), player 2 calls, other folds. river is 3h, player 1 pot, player 2 snap call. player 1 shows A2xx and when player 2 see the showdown, he gets surprised and says ''wait. wtf? where's the river?''. people says river card is 3 and he says ''oohhhhh. i thought we were on turn. i was slowplaying to shove on river. damn it!!!" and shows AAxx. hehehehe - side note, this guy won 50k in the night.


      another fun hand

      action on pre doens't matter. on flop K54 player B checks, player A pot, player B c/call being OOP. turn is 2, player B checks, player A snap shoves 7,5k into 8k pot.

      player B tanks forever and ask ''do you want i call?' player A keep quiet. player B keep asking this for few minutes and A still quiet. after couple minutes B says ''yo, for real, i am giving you the option. just say and i will do it. i call or i fold?'' and A finally says ''ok, you should CALL. '' and is going to show his cards when player B says ''so i fold'' lol

      they start a big confusion because A thinks player B should honor his words and has to call. (which maybe sounds weird for you, but this is standard in brazil. our game isn't oficial, isn't underground, but meh your word is important. imo A is right for sure) and the owner of the game is called to make a decison.

      lots of minutes talking, and waht they decided: player B can fold, but has been told he should never ever do that again here in sao paulo. B says in his town and at oficial tournaments he can do that, he was just making an ''interview'' to see if he capture some tell from A. the owner of the game says ''yo, you are in sao paulo. here its our rules''. and its decided B can fold -because he isn't from sao paulo and didn't know the rules. and for don't create any problems the owner of the game says ''ok, the house pay to player A the 7,5k bet ''

      =p

      ps: no, we don't have any seats open. no, you guys are NOT welcome in this game
      Have you ever wondered that maybe the house hires 'fish' to juice pots up majorly and try and force all ins? I have heard about this being done before but never quite to the extent of calling off with Q hi on that flop
