The Official Poker/Gambling Thread

Damn that's like no people lol. The tracks I go to usually have like 20-30 tables running, Hard rock has like over a hundred easy.

 

glhf at bank

GUESS WHO'S READY TO PLAY ONLINE POKER BITCHES. Deposited $150 so I don't have to call up the bank every week. Gonna be playing like $3 tourneys or $0.10/0.20 cash games or do you think those cash games are still kinda big? Edit: played a $5 turbo. What a joke. Play like 1 pot, get bullied in it. Blinds went up like every round, didn't get any cards then run my 7bb in 9s when I have 8s. Yeah.. sure I did

If you want, I think it could be fun to both play in the same tourney. We should 2 table it (since 1 table at a time is boring unless you're in the money) and could spectate each other's tables

I don't have time for tourneys really, not during the week anyway. Can't they easily last 3-4hrs depending how many people register? Llama I know you said you put like 12 in one time. I have more than a $150 bankroll. As long as this lasts me this month I'll be fine. I can just call the bank back up so they let me deposit more. Buuut the key is not losing tourneys ;) also I'm staying away from turbos. The blinds went up like every orbit. That's way too fast

Looks like I'll be playing mostly cash games then. And the turbo I played was only 9 players, I'm sure the bigger ones are more fun

.10/.25. Guy makes it .75, I make it 2.25. Get 3 callers. KJ10. I have AQ. $9 pot, I make it $6. I was thinking about slow playing but SOMEONE has to have a piece of this don't they? Should I have slow played it? Also, since we can't see usernames on bovada, do the notes still stay with the account? Like let's say I make a note on someone, they leave and a month from now they join back in, will the note still be there? It would be kind of pointless to have notes only for that one session unless it's a tourney

Playing 2 tables of .10/.25. My left table we both flop sets, get it all in on river. I got him beat. My right table I flop set of 6s. Bet flop, check turn, everyone also checks which sucks. Bet pot on river. Guy calls, rivered set of jacks. Oh jeez. Keep running 9s into 10s, or jacks into queens. Anything one directly higher than the pocket pair I have haha. Started with $150, up to $217. Made some lose calls and plays that cost me a bit but up almost $70 for a few hours a day isn't bad for .10/.25

I think I've gotten 72 like once this whole time I've played so far. And I got some screen shots.. I didn't get paid off with my quads like you did. Also I'm up almost $100 from my $150. It's funny how nitty people are playing .10/.25 than 1/2 live.. can't ever get anyone to fold playing live casino

What'd that pay and what was the buy in

50? Shouldn't that have paid a few hundred?

Well for one I thought usually tourneys only pay top 10 percent so 50 people shouldn't have gotten paid. I just feel like 50 is too low. It's not even worth grinding hours to make $40

I guess I'm not used to the tourney pay out structure. Had a pretty shitty night. Ran bad and made bad calls like usual. It's hard to put your opponent on garbage made hands but welcome to online poker

unlucky run out on that 22 lol

It seems like you're an emotional player and one piece of advice I have is to figure out how to change your mindset to narrow the range of situations that you consider "bullshit" or worth reacting to. I know we're just fucking around in here, but the J9 for example, is a super standard just run of the mill scenario. But you screencapped it prob cuz you felt like poker gods wanted you to lose. I could be totally off base here lol, just don't fall into the trap of "If I'm ahead on the flop I deserve to never lose"

I feel you, not that I necessarily agree, just understand your view

pre-flop all in btw
