March - try hyper H/L + 18 max holdem

rake - 5,4k
If I don't have a lot to lose in 18 max - the SNE is quite real

In hyper H/L for as much rake no ((

call or fold. raise is no option as UTG already acted in a calling manner and this is no valid raise

I think I have seen an invalid raise like this b4 in a hyper. But it so rarely would be a factor I guess no1 cares enough to get it changed.

I agree, try get it fixed. Min raise is 20, CO raised 10, no right for UTG to do anything but complete after previously making his move.

I think I just fold. What is the best case scenario? One of them has a bare two pair and someone else a lower flush draw. You can be drawing super thin based on the preceding action very easily.

I shove all-in and hope the board doesn't pair.

cliffs: Stars conciders the sb as a bet pf, so the bb is the initial raise in the hand. Any bet over 1.5bb is then a legitimate raise. The problem is obviously too big a programming job and rare enough for them to concider fixing to comply with the actual rules of the game.

Quote:
Thank you for contacting PokerStars.

This player was legally entitled to reopen the betting in this case in accordance with Rule #28 of our Card Room Rules, which states:

"In No Limit and Pot Limit games, the minimum bet will be equal to the big blind. However, PokerStars treats the big blind as a raise of the small blind. That means that pre-flop, any raise in an unopened pot that is equal to or greater than the small blind reopens the action."

Our complete Card Room Rules can be found at:

http://www.pokerstars.com/poker/room/policies/

To further explain this rule, at the start of the hand, our system actually regards the small blind as the original bet and the big blind as the first "raise".

As an example, please consider the following hand with four players and their actions pre-flop:

WelLookyHeA: posts small blind 150
Ranners: posts big blind 300

wildside9: calls 300
Lucinda Luck: folds
Jay_Smith_07: folds
WelLookyHeA: raises 165 to 465 and is all-in
Ranners: calls 165
wildside9: raises 1145 to 1610 and is all-in
Ranners: folds

So as we can see, our server reads this hand as an initial bet of 150 chips, followed by a raise to 300, a call of 300, and then another raise of 165 chips. Since this subsequent raise is at least as much as the previous "raise" in the blinds (150 from the small to big blind) it actually reopens the betting.

This is a situation that actually comes up very rarely in regular game play - there needs to be a player limp in early position, and a player with between 1.5 and 2 big blinds go all-in, and then a third player to call. This combination of stack sizes and player actions is not very common. We have received very few questions about this over the past few years, and at this time we have no plans to make any changes to our rules or our software regarding this issue.

We hope that this information clarifies the play of this hand for you. Please let us know if we can assist you with anything else.

Regards,

Josh

SB treated as the original bet and BB as a raise...small lol. Both are forced bets. Good you informed them. They have to stick to the rules they have this time, for not having to do investigations and pay. But hope they consider this when they update their software at some point.

Just got some money for placing in Venus high orbit. I had pretty decent score but was surprised that I did not make even top 500 in low orbit. Is it more common for hyper players to get high or low orbit?

Pretty difficult to do either playing solely hypers. Wp. You must have run hellishly good as well as play decent.

For once I agree. It's next to impossible to top the low orbit playing hypers (less points on offer, 39 compared to 61 for winning 18-man games) although I once made 3rd in Neptune high orbit playing only $30 hypers. It's easier to do at higher stakes when 101 holdem grinders aren't posting low orbit scores > 500.
