I'm starting to wonder if getting my own deep table via iron man medals would be worth hundreds of dollars

Wait for antes imo. My biggest problem is deciding on a level. I kinda want a 1kNL one that I can take shots at when it's fishy heh

its worth $140.63 assuming that you are normally spending your medals on the $76 tokens. If you get a money seat once and stack a fish then youve already made your money back! (or most of it in your case )

who are the best ssnl coaches for <200$/hr?

The last month or something, almost all my sessions I have just sat at some empty tables and waited to play, and while it does sometimes take quit a while to get the first opponent to the table (time of day makes a big diff I guess obv), 95+% of the time, when someone does join, the table will be full in 3 hands. Not exagerrating. I guess there are some ppl just sitting waiting to see a table with more than 1 person in it and jump in or something.

Tokens/FT points are really the only thing to buy.

Does playing a sat. for tokens with FTPoints effect your MGR?

why not bonus money?

i really think expecting other regs to sit in whatever seat is most optimal for you is a bit optimistic and self-absorbed and is certainly a secondary concern compared to your relative position to the people you are actually trying to profit from.

Two highlights of today's solidly meh session.



Playing 36/30/4/12 at a table can result in good things! Managed to induce a light shove from a nitty reg running 15/13 with a 4 % 3 bet over 600 hands.

As this is the regs thread I'll name villain, it was Bagataway.




This bluff was slightly tilt driven (just walked set kings into flopped flush in 3 bet pot) but I still stand by that it's decent, though I'd prefer it if we were slightly deeper.



Villain was reasonably competent running 26/20/2 over 300

Figure he never has a set or decent flush draw as he'd 3 bet flop


Turn: 5 ($85, 2 players)
CO checks, Hero bets $52, CO calls $52



Bit worried about him jamming turn with tp/overpair with a decent f draw but If I check it's to give up unless I spike a 7 or q


River: 5 ($189, 2 players)
CO checks, Hero goes all-in $144.05, CO folds


He never has a boat at this point or a flush as he'd jam turn with it, most likely has an overpair /tp type hand with a diamond that will hate life If I shove, so I do.


Final Pot: $189

Hero wins $330.05 ( won +$93 )
CO lost -$93


Is my thinking off or is this a half decent bluff?

I play 2/4+, and I dunno about the regs @ 1/2, but most every reg who actually starts deep tables I would hate to have on my left. Even if the fish is directly on my left, I would never start a deep table. Even the bad regs who start deep tables 3bet enough to where I will not be able to play my style profitably. Also, it is fairly accepted and should be a standard imo that regs are respectful of position when starting deep tables against regs. If not then there will be little incentive to start a deep table knowing you'll be oop to a good reg when you actually get deep. Plus it justifies infinite seat moving and me switching seats on them, which probably also hurts the games.

yeah i wasn't really thinking of 2/4+ when i made my comments but i definitely see how much the issue depends on your individual style of play and the skill level of your opponents

if only I could be fcked to play...

Buff, do you ever go to Black Hawk?

thinking of coming out of the hole i crawled into after dumping 8 buys on wednesday. howre the games?

Sometimes. Haven't been in awhile. Prob will go again once the law is finally implemented and play some drunken 2-100 spread since I can actually stay the whole night.

i may start short stacking no joke. I cannot beat 6max anymore.

Bagataway is anything but nitty. he's more like a 24/20 3b 7-9% type player.

i was thinking about this the other day and i came to the conclusion that theyre waiting to gather a good amount of data on the amount of points regs can earn by repeating tons of challanges like Harman's over and over. i think we're shooting ourselves in the foot by doing it cause theyre just gonna come out with a store that has huge scaled up prices.

Gotta love aggro images. This is a nitty reg who had cold 4bet me like 3 times w/in 6 or so buttons (to be fair I think I 3bet isoed fish 5 or so of those buttons). He folded to a shove before, then this:

Ha, guess he's just been card dead every time I've played with him, lol samplesizeaments.

This is exactly what I thought too.

FTPDoug said (like a week and a half ago) that the store prices are within a matter of weeks; now, how many weeks is anyones' guess.

bagatway is nitty....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

anyone know whatever happened to chantech/kingsjstur or whatever?
