My winrate vs regs is higher than vs fishs. All the fishs outhere are crushing me everyday. I think I overestimate these guys all the time

Dusty Schmidt friended me on facebook today. Am I right in thinking that he is Leatherass?

This is weird if it is because I have never spoken to him, emailed him or anything and I am a lowly 50NL player whilst he plays 1kNL/2kNL. I am in the UK and he is obv US and we have no friends in common. Why the hell would he befriend me?

Not that I care or anything, have nothing against him, just thought it was a bit weird.

plo is even more fun yesterday i managed to lose 12 bi at 5/10 getting hitnrun by literally EVERY SINGLE opponent and didnt play more than 80 hands vs anyone.

haha

my PLO experiences are very similiar, its such a sik game!

urubu should coach me

my one-pair river calls work a lot more often in PLO. Does this mean that I'm good at plo or that I suck especially hard at no limit?

Mynameisbusto. Always seemed to own me, and loved to minraise when we four tabled, which tilted me.

dont take it personally but some guys ask so stupid thinks here, damn...

does anybody want to play? im bored

haha

The actual policy on FTP is that you aren't required to play anyone HU and once you sit at a table, it is 'yours' so to speak. So yes, if he says 'no thanks' then you're supposed to leave the table. The reason everyone is saying you get 'one time' to not leave or something is just because FTP will only warn you the first time, so there's no real consequence for staying. But the rule is, you're supposed to leave.

I would be wary of this. I suspect a lot of people get their passwords hacked because of what they find out about you on your FB account.

Mark

Yes good point. I'm gonna have to check it and make sure there are no revealing details on there.

or just defriend him.

This works whether or not he is genuine.

(though generally a good idea to keep feck all reall info on facebook)

why would you want to use the RSA token btw? I understand it for ebanking because it is handed to you in person but on pokersites people can still photoshop a fake id if they know your info and it's not like its hard to choose a password that's too unfeasible to brute force.

stop sitting at A tables u bumhunting pussy

People don't bruteforce passwords, they get access to your email somehow. RSA tokens would have prevented like 90% of hacks in the last year and they cost something like $60, why would you not get one?

+1

If they can get access to my email they can request ft/stars to disable the security token, or get a new one, because I "lost" it. It's basically little more than a second password.

What I forgot is that it is an effective measure against keyloggers (though a little more inconvenient than basic computer security measures) so yeah. The reason I would not get one is a)I'm lazy and b)I'm busto

Come on man, they're obviously not going to just disable it because you email them. There's no need for there to be a difference between a bank's token and a poker site's one. My bank did not hand me my token, they posted it to me.

The token is pretty much the ultimate in poker site security. Trying to knock it is daft.

Would have prevented like 100% of hacks imo. It's almost failproof.

No, it's not like a second password. Once enabled, you have to send them in proof of your identity to get it disabled. Read up on RSA tokens and how they work before you post crazy stuff like that.

Mark

I can't beat fish either - but sometimes I get lucky and suck out ha.

Amen

full tilt says they will do it, I checked stars and it looks they have thought it a little more thorough though I still think it's not that hard for somebody who knows your info. What can stars do more than ask for an ID scan they have no means to check the authenticity of. A bank _is_ different, or at least mine is, because if you want to bypass the thing you have to personally show up with a real id etc.
I'm obviously not saying its worthless but someone who can hack your password can hack the token with maybe 30% more effort imo.

Again, you don't really have a clue what you are talking about. I hope nobody reads any of the stuff you post about RSA tokens and takes you seriously. Go do some reading first before posting irresponsible stuff like this.

Mark

Well, in fairness FTP do state that they'll disable it after a security check based on documents that you email them. I gave out about it in the original thread, and I'll probably do so again in the FTP answers thread. The obvious problem would be that these documents are probably in the sent folder of the average poker player's email account. Realistically they should have to send you out another device, or at least an authentication code.

That said, the time delay between somebody initiating the procedure and full tilt actually disabling the token would mean most attacks along this route would fail. Also, you're knocking FTP's system, not tokens. Which is good because trying to knock tokens would be silly.

My dear Mark,

I know that RSA tokens are theoretically foolproof. That does not help if somebody sneaks into your house and steals it. On the internet one can figuratively do that by the same means with which they can change your password. That defies the whole purpose of a physical token.
