^ I believe he is referring to your comment 'finished now'. SIGH

Me thinks you are taking stars comments to heart too.

Wtf brockl and kingofthesea just sitting out in the table fish is sitting out while playing the rest ??

***** idiot scumbags u r even worse that scumbag182 or dumb****cheaterspanische

fwiw I did happen to catch this some how... alexo spazzed out and left after tilting his face off, and then benyamine policed it a bit and threatened reporting, and then the fish sat back in and MIRACULOUSLY , king of sea and brock sat back in and pleaded ignorance

isnt seaking one of the spots aswell?!^^

So many anons itt

I missed it too. I think it's because i don't really read most of the promo email stars sends. They are just overdoing it imo... I get one almost daily. Just got notified that its easier to buy play money chips now... They should send a lot less of them and try to personalyse them a bit imo.

Those emails could 100% be targeted better.

I get emails from Stars telling me I can now buy play money chips with PayPal. And that I can get in on the tournament action for as little as $1.10. Cheers Stars.

i like play money. i can relax and spew in comfort

Hi Guys!
Does anyone was coached by Quadrophobia ? I'm actually playing mainly zoom500 on stars and I'm sure that i need to make something with my math-based leaks if i want take shoots on higher games. After reading Quadrophobia's blog it seems to be great choice, but at first i want to make some research about him.
Nowdays its not hard to find brea keaven or losing coaches ofering lessons for some sick price. So I'm bit sceptical about someone who is hiding he's results/screnname.

^A player can be break even/losing and still be a great coach for helping you find weaknessess. ESPECIALLY if it's math-based leaks that you mainly have.

What others leaks are there than mathleaks?
You mean mental leaks or what?

Sure, it is possible. But we can also find b/e coaches producing b/e players.



Tricky question, all spots can be calculated but you dont need to be math expert to be winning player. For me preflop play and high spr postflop play can be separate leaks.

benni i thought you quit, glad to see you are back


i think this is ppt question but what is the most amount of backdoor quad, backdoor royal, backdoor straight flush you can have on flop




i just started learning about this math in poker, its quite interesting, 2-1 doesn't equal 50 percent

Well there are the tilt/intangible leaks such as game selection and quitting at the proper times that coaches like Tommy Angelo and Jared Tendler address. But more than that, there are bet sizing leaks, balance leaks, line and frequency leaks, hand reading leaks, and just general range estimation and judgement leaks.

For example if a villain bets pot on the river, you are getting 2:1 on a call, so all "math" can really tell you is that if you're good more than 33% of the time against his betting range you should call, and if less fold. But then math is basically irrelevant, and hand reading, having a proper idea of opponent's range based on the way the hand played out and his bluffing/vbetting tendencies what's most important in making your decision

Combinatoric is also part of math, so it can tell you how often you are good

Math is idiotic.

so is ivanhoe

Satisfying end to my live session. £1/2 4/5/6 (mostly 6, I'm the only calling 5), in for £1400, down to my last £200 pullup after about 4 hours, up and down from £700 to £200 and back, go down to 3 handed, spin up to £1600, the guy who runs the game and had lost tons and tons had previously announced that he was done but said he was bored waiting for the game to finish and bought in for £1k straight. I find AAQQT2ds the next hand and we get £1.5k in preflop, flop comes AT2r, I jam, get a quick call from big stack (shorter stack is allin for £500). We run it twice, first board I bd the nut flush, second board pairs the 2 on the river, poor shortstack proudly announces 'nut nut' with two broadways even after I've tabled my hand and then his head sinks and I break the game to finish £1700 up.

Oh and I also made SN today for first time since 2012, needed to cash out FPPs and I'm too cheap to take the lower rate.

dont get coaching from someone who wont provide you with their results

dont get coaching from someone without recent results

4-5 years ago I was charging $300/hour (with discounts, avg worked out ~ $200) for online PLO coaching. I don't know whether I was providing that value to everyone - almost certainly much more for those that were humble, studious and played medium stakes or higher - but I had great results online and I was at the peak of my game, reasonably close to the top of the curve (at least for the games I was playing and coaching for). Since then more and more of my income has been other gambling interests to the point where I'm only making maybe ~10% of my income from online poker and I only beat $2/4, not for much, and only 5cPLO, doubt I could beat $2/4 4cPLO. I've turned down a bunch of coaching requests in that time.

There's a number of things that go into being a good coach, beyond just being a good poker player. I tried to teach a holistic approach to being a professional online PLO player, so a bunch of soft-skills including BRM, game/seat selection, software, obviously tilt control (though you should be trying to solve that on your own rather than having a coach for it), as well as the nuts and bolts PLO skills. I could probably impart some value to learning PLO players now and my coaching might appear great to some but what you really need is references. People you know to be strong poker players coming to you and saying 'not only is this guy a good, well-rounded poker player but he knows how to coach as well'. Those count much more than recent results.

You know what counts regarding the subject? The math and the truth.

The maths in poker isn't trivial and truth is subjective.

what % of students can identify the truth?
