Poker Players?

Any of you out there?
Just trying to figure out if it's worth starting any discussion threads here. If you play, how often and what site online (if you play online)?

I used to play all the time with a certain group of friends that I haven't talked to in months, so my play has dropped off quite a bit lately. I also used to go to a Thursday night game every week, but I've been slacking on that as well.

When I play online, I like Ultimate Bet (I've just played for free so far), but their software is acting goofy on me lately and I can't seem to get in any tournaments which is what I prefer playing. I've thought about getting a pay account there and see what I can do with it, but I've got other things to do with my money soon.

I'm going to Vegas on Thursday, and plan on playing a bit there, but I've also never been there and want to do the whole "tourist" thing. I've got a friend who lives there, and he's also into poker, so that should help. He's already told me that I have to play in a couple tournaments with him while I'm there. He may also have a home game at some point, so I should be back in the swing of it by the end of the weekend.

I play regularly on www.pokerstars.com

I've been playing for a couple years now. I started playing with real money about a year ago. It's not exactly a reliable source of income, but there are enough new players out there that if you're patient enough you can be pretty successful. I have class all week and not a lot of time to get a real part-time job, so playing poker is a good way for me to get a little bit of extra money.

I play at Pokestars.net, the free site. I don't gamble but enjoy the game. I play about once a week, I guess.

I've played a little at AbsolutePoker and a little at PokerStars. I am not really a gambler, but enjoy playing. The problem with the free tables is you often get some idiot that wants to shove all-in constantly, knowing you don't really have much/anything to lose.

weekly games with friends and a monthly 100 tournament in my neighborhood with about 80 guys. I came in 2nd last week which was cool, pulled in a little bit of money.

I try to shy away from online poker, too many amateurs and its so hard to read an amateur who sits on a 3-8 through your raises and re-raises and eventually ends up geting a straight. Or getting runner runnered with trips. Not fun

My best friend beat my full house with a four-of-a-kind last week.

I always assume that a full house is unbeatable, and went all-in.

When you are the first one out at my table, you are immediately turned into a waitress, getting beer and snacks for everyone else until the next guy goes out.

Everyone starts slow-playing to enjoy the free labour. Fucking pricks.

When my buddy finally lost, I punched him in the nuts. I felt better, somehow.

I was down at the Seminole casino in hollywood, fl over the holidays. I had a full house. Kings full of Aces. Got beat by the guy next to me. 4 aces. I couldn't believe it. The shitty part is thats probably the worst bad-beat you could get. If I had A's over J's or better and was beat by a 4 of a kind I would have had hit the bad beat jackpot. I think it was up to $80,000 and (if I remember correctly) I would have received 70% of that pot. shucks is all I could say.

Anyway, I play at pokerstars.com probably every other day on average and go to the dog track couple times a month to get some pari-mutual hold-em in.

You know what makes me laugh? Those guys who play with their chips like it is a fucking video game.

Dude, noone is impressed that you can make one stack out of two. Stop spinning the fucking things and bet with them.

You want to impress me? Win the damned game.
And I hate how everyone gets all "Serious" when there is a big pot on the table. Relax guys, it is just a game. If you couldn't afford to lose, don't play at all.

Anyone play with women? I have only ever played with guys. Do they play different, or does it throw the game off balance and everyone is all "OOOoooh look, there is a girl at the table, she must be a great player..."

Of course those suckouts are not fun, however those people are the number one reason I play online poker. You cannot say you wish everyone played like a pro, or even smart. It's all about expected value and variance... if they chase a gutshot straight draw, when you bet half the pot or more, you will definately win more than your fair share.

I do this It's not because I'm trying to be "cool" or impress anyone, its because keeping yourself busy hides tells. If I try to sit there doing nothing, I will have subtle tells that good players will pick up on; if I always make sure I am shuffling chips every single hand -- it distracts my body from giving out those possible tells.

I'm curious who everyone's favorite and least favorite pro's are. Try not to list more than 2 or 3 of each.

To start it off...
Favorites: Sammy Farha, Mike Matusow, Phil Ivey
Least-Fav.: Phil Hellmuth, Sean "Sheiky" Sheikan(sp?)

Not really, some people can choose to employ more than 1 deck of cards. I have a dealers shoe with 4 set of deck in it and the game was going along just fine until we got to a round where I got into an argument with my buddies that my 4 of a kind 8s with aces beat his full house 3 8s full of king because they thought that it was stupid to have that many 8s in any round and tried to declare the round null and void and stick to a single deck of card. Of course, my argument prevailed because we all agreed to using more than 1 deck of card until we decided to stick to a single deck.

That's why I like matusow, except he tries to be a dick to be funny, not to be a true whiney dick =)

I think Hellmuth is a very large reason so many internet players whine about suckouts and start cussing out their opponents.


Anyone here play anything other than no limit holdem? Ive been playing Limit for about a year for maybe 10 or so hours a week but im starting to dabble a bit more into pot limit Omaha and 7-card stud.

It's hard to get in a good set of discussions on poker and get input from others when you are restricted to one thread in such a broad topic .

If the mods are considering the possibility of a forum, perhaps just a general gambling forum would work better than poker specifically.

Played 100 NL at a casino last week. Lost when I went all in with QQ. I couldn't believe that guy caught his set of 10's. 80% to win and I still lose.

Maybe this will make you feel better... (it wasn't me, thankfully). A little setup... this is a bad beat table, meaning if you lose with quad 8's or better and both players use both hole cards, it hits the jackpot. It was a little over $100,000 at the time and the losing hand would win around $35,000.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) Bad Beat Jackpot

Preflop: Heroine is BB with 9d, 9s.
2 folds, UTG+2 calls, 1 fold, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, 1 fold, Button calls, SB completes, Heroine checks.

Flop: (6 SB) 9h, Tc, 9c (6 players)
SB checks, Heroine bets, UTG+2 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, Button calls, SB calls.

Turn: (4.50 BB) Jc (3 players)
SB checks, Heroine bets, Button raises, SB folds, Heroine 3-bets, Button calls.

River: (10.50 BB) Qc (2 players)
Heroine bets, Button raises, Heroine 3-bets, Button caps, Heroine calls.

Final Pot: 18.50 BB

Results in white below:
Heroine has 9d 9h (four of a kind, nines).
Button has 7c 8c (straight flush, queen high).
Outcome: Button wins 18.50 BB.





That river would put me on tilt for life.

I will play low buy-in tourneys in Vegas whenever I go. Best I ever did was making final table and ended up going out in 7th overall, which was good enough for a pat on the back. Only the top 5 finished in the money that tourney.... grumble. I had just lost half my stack by the jerkoff to my left who caught a flush on the river, he had only one club in his hand, that always stinks. After that I was going to stratigically fold until I made it to the payout spots. But then I get A-Q suited, you have to play that, right? I went all in pre-flop, got called by K-9 offsuit, he caught a 9 on the flop, that was that.

I play on Full Tilt a lot, but only for play money. My handle there is SoggyMan.

Played some no limit hold 'em with my friends yesterday. I actually got rockets, which is surprising. Second time in my short poker life... I get kings once in a while, but the aces are so much more elusive.

I actually hit my set on the flop with those aces too... mwahaha

I actually got a straight flush tonight. I had QT spades. Flopped a straight and a flush draw. I bet, 1 call. Spade comes out on the turn. I go all in, she calls. Turns out she had K2 spades. My only out is the 10 of spades. River comes out ten of spades. My friend was pretty pissed off

Now, here in Washington state it is a ten year prison sentence for gambling online or even talking about it thru email or internet.

This just sounds incorrect. How can talking about this be a crime? As for playing, it is technically illegal, but the government does not go after casual online players. To be honest, they haven't even gone after the pros, who would be first if they went after players. Who they do care about are the CEO's of the online gambling companies that run their stuff overseas, as evidenced by their detaining one such person who I believe was switching planes in a US airport.

As for my poker history, I am a fairly successful low stakes player over about 250k hands. I average about 10$ an hour multitabling now, but when I first started at micro limits, it was much much lower, and my total roll stands at around 2000$ at the moment. I don't believe I have what it takes to be a high stakes player, so I'm becoming more of a casual player while I pursue other interests. I've played NL primarily, at 3 different sites. Recently, I've been trying some Limit and some 7-card Hi stud action. Have also tried my hand at live play, which I find fairly interesting but don't love as much as my mentor does.

My mentor taught me the basic rules and very low-level strategy in college. He plays as high as $150/$300 stud, and is semi-retired at this point. Basically, he's going for a masters, but has no real plans but to play poker for a living. He plays about 4 hours a day at most. He is the one who got me started by transferring 50$, which I dropped to $10 at some point. I started following his teaching from that point on, and when I got to 100$, transferred back his $50. Then I proceeded to grind that up, very slowly, to where I am right now.

If anyone wants to discuss strategy, I'm always willing. www.twoplustwo.com is a great resource if you can ignore the useless posts and focus on the good ones.

Some people have more money than sense.

I've been playing a lot of "free" poker lately, and doing quite well...........so..........my Absolute Poker account somehow found a $96 grubstake deposited in it, just for giggles.

That was about 5 days ago. I played a bit through the week, and had bumped that amount up by about $50. I figured out that playing head's up was more my style, and decided that tonight I'd stick to just that.

My account now has $390+ in it, and there is one very perturbed AP player right now.

I sat down with a guy at a $20 table, and he was raising everything, calling every raise I made, and playing so loose it was sick. By the time I figured him out (I couldn't believe someone was playing THAT loose for $20 a pop. ), he had me outchipped by about 4:1, and I couldn't come back even knowing what was up. But, as soon as I was out I hit the same table, and so did he. I folded the first six-seven hands, then finally flopped two pair. I thought I had him nailed, but the turn and river brought him a straight. So I'm going to give it ONE more try at the same table, and he sits down again........and sure enough, I have his number. I fold anything that isn't a medium pocket pair or better. I let him steal all the blinds he wants. But when I have something, I nail him to the wall, HARD. I play textbook tight-aggressive poker. I don't bluff at all, and don't bet anything less than top pair or better. I win this time. He sits down again, and so do I. And I beat him. Now we are even. He wants some more, and I oblige, and take a $20 from him. He disappears from the table, so I go look for another game.


I'm feeling good, playing with house money, so I peek at the $50 head's up tables. Guess who I find? So I sit down, and take $50 from him.......and he wants more, so I take ANOTHER $50 from him. I figure that I'm pressing things, so I log off, and go watch a movie. I decide a few minutes ago to check out the tables again. I often peek at the head's up tables where one person is waiting to play, just to see if I see someone that I've had good success against waiting to play. :angel: Who do I see? :rotfl: You guessed it!! So I log in, sit down, and take $100 from him.

So, all told, I took $220 from the SAME guy, all within about 2 or 2 1/2 hours, at head's up hold em. I'm guessing he doesn't have nice things to say about me right now.

I've been paying on pokerstars.net username rawk-zilla. I've been doing well on the $3 1 table tournaments. 7 times out of 10 I'll place in the top 3. Right now my biggest weakness is patience. If I have to fold 7-8 hands in a row I start taking stupid risks, calling when I have a face card with a weak kicker, off-suited connectors, stuff like that.
Over the last month, I've turned my $50 investment into about $35, but I'm still learning. I took in about $15 tonight, and if I can manage to break even, I may put a little more money into my accout and start playing for higher stakes.
Does anyone have any good books on Texas Hold'em to recommend (aside from Super System)?

Last time I gambled I was in one of the Indian casinos outside of Phoenix on I-10. (Gila River). I walked in with $400 and at one time had over $1600.

72 hours later I was falling asleep the guy to my left would nudge me and ask me if I were in, I just wanted it to end so I kept throwing chips in, raising and doing whatever I could to end it.

I did, it was my last time gambling. 7 years, 7 months 1 day and 14.5 hours as of right now.

Poker is a great game, but if you aren't careful it is every bit as addictive as heroin, cocaine and alcohol. My advice, play as long as it is fun but quit and never go back the second it becomes too serious and you keep saying "I'll go after this hand" yet, you play another 1/2 hour or more.

I envy those who can play, walk away and play again. I wish I could have. Poker was my lover for a long time.... I was damned good until I would get tired and just want to end it.... and ending it for me was losing it all, hence no more betting for me.

my answer to the original question: I usually play at http://www.pokerstrategy.org.uk/ cause I like that they teach you how to play, and to be honest, I'm a greenhorn at this game. what pan6467 says, doesn't sound too encouriging though...

I think poker is a lot of fun, I was considering being more serious at it, but like Pan there are times when the break is bad, that I start risking more, being more stupid, "not staying disciplined."

So at this point, it's just a nice distraction.

Boy, not much action on this topic despite it being a sticky...

Come on Poker Players, lets meet up sometime. I'll be playing tonight into the wee hours on Full Tilt. My handle is SoggyMan. I usually play the 100,000 play-chip buy-in sit & go tournaments.

In February I was final headups after a 6 hour tourney with re-buys and two 10 person tables making the winner take home upwards of $1000.

I made a big preflop raise with a pair of kings, got called. Flop...(Kd, Kc,10s) I have Quad cowboys, and I tried to milk him. He went all in (later determined to be a bluff). I called. He showed Jack 9 spades. Turn was Qs. The river was the 8 spades. He caught a straight flush on the river.

I haven't played since. Too many bad beats.
