Official pacific poker regulars thread - Page 201 - Micro Stakes Pot Limit and No Limit

Why we talk about me? Total offtopic.
Yes I play terrible, I played 2 hours a day this and last year at average, so I avoid people who play 5 or 6 times as much than me. I play those players who are also amateurs like me. Its not bumhunting, bumhunting is when you play 10 hours a day as a pro and you are playing against newbies.

Definition bumhunting: Sit and wait for the very worst players to take their money and refuse all other action. Also i bet your objective of playing poker is to try to win money --->you are bumhunter

. Just face it.

On party they have limitied number of tables, and on 1/2+ practically all tables have one person waiting. If you want to play you simply has to sit down and play. If the guy at the table dont want to play he has to give "his" table away to you, no1 is able to sitout for more than like 1 maybe 2 minutes. Also, you cannot rejoin a table before 5 minutes after you left, so you cannot tableblock.

Hey guys,

Just wanted to let you know that we've started testing 35 min buy-in as our main table option (I don't like the idea of having "shallow" tables. Either all 35 or none).

We're testing it on NL100 for a week or two to see the effects.

Please note that we didn't restart the tables, so the tables that are live now still have a 20 bb's min. In a few hours or a day they will die out and all NL100 will be 35 bb's minimum.

Good job. This all 35 or none means that 50bb minimun probably will never get realised?

Still good job 35bb will kill a lot of edge the short-stackers had.

I play at Lucky Ace and there you first need to unjoin the waiting list and then you have to join the table again before you can sit down and play.

Double or Nothing Heads up sit and gos FTW. Grab a buddy and 12 table the double or nothing sit and gos. It was genius but 888 put an end to it when they realized how easy it was.
