Ok, so the story with LIQUIDMAN2 aka TUTSNCAMON didn't finish.
He denies me action after i sworn I'll bust him 3 times until I'm satisfied.

FT security banned 2nd account, but allowed him to keep playing under the first one.
How is it possible? He HAS TO BE BANNED on BOTH accs and not be able to reopen new acc EVER after using both accs insta-switching between them and resit on the same table to play?

@urubu, how is Natal?
internet in egypt costs a whole lot more and it's impossible to use it for grinding. And by impossible, I don't mean 24 tables. You just cannot play poker over there. I lost more on connection crashes then what i've spent on the trip, and I 4table $30 husngs for a livin'. IMAGINE THAT !

UniKK: no way
UniKK: whats up withthat?
liquidman2: dont have money
UniKK: ill wait for you to REDEPOSIT
UniKK: when ?
UniKK: tell me
liquidman2: soon
UniKK: how soon?
UniKK: 5mins?
UniKK: 1hr?

...silence

But when they immediately sit in when the fish joins a 6max table it just look pathetic.
the fish that play these games either don't realize what is obvious or they don't care. the games still run (around very few regular fish + daniel lol)

it's not like the 4 sitting out are killing the action for the one sitting in... if any of them sat in then the other would probably sit out.

and it's actually rare that that many are sitting and not playing. usually it's no more than 3 at a table and maybe if scout is playing 25/50 then a table will fill 5 out of 6 seats but i promise you scout doesn't care lol.

I don't mean to be a douche but since he voluntarily agreed to play some more you're just hurting your chances by poking him

lol these ppl are truly idiots. One reg is playing and everyone else is sitting out w like 20 ppl on the waitlist. No one is gonna get booted so no one from the waitlist can get in and no fish can come

If you dont think thats unethical and scummy you are probably a bumhunter your self.

Some people needs to play to create a game, those are always the best (nutsinho or whoever that might be) and when they have started a game against a very very good player those scumbags just sit out. When a fish sits in they immediately sits in and plays, and when he leaves they immediately sits out again.

If they dont dare to play against nutsinho etc they shouldnt be sitting that high imo.

If I sit down at a table, Im going to play no matter who sits, maybe thats not the best strategy but I play on a level I can afford to go on a 10 buy in downswing on a session. Maybe there are some bumhunters making more $, but they sit around and wait for action 10 hrs a day, and their must suck.

What about somewhere on the coast of Italy? Crete is nice btw, just those two towns I was in weren't somewhere I'd be particularly keen on staying past the two weeks I was in them. Dunno if you've experience with them, but there was a huge population of Roma Gypsies there and where there is Roma, there is trouble.

@urubu, how is Natal?
I've stayed in Sharm El Sheik in Egypt and it's amazing. If you could find something residential there you'd be set, the place is beautiful and a lot of fun too. It's very touristy but theres loads and loads of clubs and restaurants in an area called Nama Bay, hot girls, partying etc. Not your traditional muslim area, safe to say. There's also casinos there with high limit action vs tourist fish so it'd be pretty sweet for competent poker players.

I've also been to Cairo which I wouldn't really return to, it's a pretty scary area if I'm being honest and to a westerner I couldn't imagine living there comfortably. It has become very muslim and is a bit of a giant slum, with super dangerous road conditions 24/7. I'd imagine crime is low though as there's armed police EVERYWHERE but overall it was a pretty depressing place to be.

Luxor is another area I was in, really nice area on the Nile so plenty of green grass and plants around. Everyone seemed a lot more relaxed than in Cairo and nicer in general. Some really cool historic areas in Luxor but I don't know how the nightlife/fun element matches up to somewhere like Nama Bay.

If you go to Egypt you have to get into scuba though, red sea is one of the best places in the world to do it and it's dirt cheap there to do it through PADI so it's safe too.

Good thing about Egypt is they're all broke and will literally do anything for a bit of cash. Bad thing is that some of them don't particularly like white people nor atheists. They'd literally rather hear you're a Jew than an Atheist because they simply can't understand not believing.

I know people who've moved to BA and they've no intention of returning, it's supposed to be an awesome place to live.


I'm super interested in Vegas next year but it's $$$ depending, so if I make a decent chunk between October and December I'll give a definite answer on it.

I have been lurking on the HU threads for about a week. I currently play sngs and 6-max, 70% 6-max. I am looking for diversity, so I am adding HU to my repertoire. I started to play some small micros to get comfortable with HU play. Was doing well, but I need some core knowledge worked out.

Going through the thread I have a couple questions that have been asked 1000s of times. Here are my questions:

What stakes do I need to play at to start see HU cash games?

What is considered solid player stats and fish stats? I am just looking for a range. I realize HU is more about reads compared to 6max games.

How many hands do you need before you can feel comfortable with the stats you have on a player?

Thanks. I am looking forward to participating actively amongst ya'll.

The lowest limit on most sites is 50nl, but on certain networks you can find 10nl or 20nl (i think ongame or ipoker?)

What is considered solid player stats and fish stats? I am just looking for a range. I realize HU is more about reads compared to 6max games.

Positional stats are more important than your standard vpip/pfr in HU since there's only 2 spots and they're extremely different. Most good regs will play almost every hand on the button with a raise, so expect to see smth like 85/85 for their sb stats. fish will play smth more like 60/0 or 70/5 or whatnot but it varies obviously. In the bb there's a wide variety of styles, most common is probably something like 40/20 for a reg but plenty are tighter and are looser. Obvious signs of a fish is that their vpip in the bb is roughly equal to that in the sb.

How many hands do you need before you can feel comfortable with the stats you have on a player?

Certain stats converge quicker than others, for example i'd start trusting basic preflop stats after 50-100 hands but flop stats will take longer, turn stats even longer, and river stats could take 10k+ hands to be anything meaningful. If you're referring to winrate stats, even 50k hands might be unreliable.

Thanks. I am looking forward to participating actively amongst ya'll.
welcome and gl!

I've took down this muppet (liquidman2) in DeathMatch for 33.5 buy-ins today. I've told him before I'll bust him no matter what.
But somehow i feel bad now, despite that i did what i had to do. He Godmoded me for two days big time and in the end hard hand happens lots of cash super deep in on the river and he shoves rest repping super ultra narrow range I have super tough time and he sais JACKAS.S !@#$%. And soon HNR me. Next day he HNR's me again pretty bad. And also he posted on PTR that i'm an ugly person twice with other bad words.
But now after I've busted him, next chat occured:
liquidman2: man
UniKK: Ive told you Im gonna bust your roll
UniKK: then youll need to seel your mom and ill bust you again
liquidman2: i am &&%%ed
rest of chat i didn't get copied, but he said he can't pay rent now and he is making only 30E/day.

Despite all that stuff happened and he truly deserved it, i feel real bad. This is just a game, and i don't want him to suffer. If he is telling the truth, i'm willing to help him with rent money, if he'll pay me back them in the near future.

Don't go to Egypt, all women are like that:


Locals interrupt you at least 10x daily with rip-off deals, trying to sell you bottle of sand for $10 etc and always try to scam you with everything, i.e. you want taxi to the nearest shop, they say it's 20km from here if it's actually 500m, paid with $5, taxi fee was $2, he gave me back $2 said he doesn't have more (obv I can't be bothered to go run for change because of $1). Hygiene even in 5-star hotel is LOL etc. This country is just so terrible, imo only meant for cheap/poor people who want all-included vacation for $500.

And I highly doubt you can get decent Internet there.
