Poker Players

[Vitamin-X]

From what I understand a lot of no limit (all in) players get clobbered in
low limit hold'em.
Isolation is just that much harder and with so many people willing to challenge you and play garbage, the crowd is hard to beat.

bullshit.

no one folds pocket A's preflop. sure they're are alot of guys in the graveyard who did the fool's move and made a big raise before the flop with pocket A's, but never fold them until you see the flop.

pocket A's tend to have a 54% chance to win before the flop.

Only a complete moron would fold the rockets preflop.

A K suited is good starting hand but i prefer the snowmen. for some reason 8's hit the board alot. Yesterday had the snowmen, floped a set and rivered my quads. Today full house 8's full of 5's
Oh yeah and some guy had the pockets, went all in after the flop and got beat by a set of 8's

felt bad for the guy cause that was his last hand. He was gonna cash out but he decided to play one last hand. Looks down at his cards and sees rockets. Raises and gets called. Flop comes and he goes all in against set of
8's. Poor guy. If he only left while he was up which was about 500.

That's a very interesting strategy. what if you have pocket 8's or snowmen if you will.
I think if you ever layed down pocket AA preflop, You would be just insane.
The best way to play pocket rockets depends on your position, blinds, how the table is playing, how many players left, your chipstack and no-limit/limit. You have to feel the table. Ideally you're big blind, and you have control of the betting, but pretty much betting a very large amount is the key in no-limit which is all I play. Next turn go all in without looking at any of the cards, immediately shout all in and stand up.
9/10 times you'll win.

I ll play poker with you anytime ramitn! =D

you can't get mad at that.

you made the right call (assuming you went all in after the flop). that's just the way the game is sometimes. sometimes ya win, sometimes ya lose.

oooo 100 buy in ... lol

Considering i 6 to 8 table anywhere from $200 to $600 buy in, shorthanded NLHE online, im not sure if i would waste my time on something like that.

But if your serious, if im playing live I am comfortable playing up to 10/20NL 2k buy in, I can get us a table at the riverrock and you can feel free to reload /top off as much as you want.


I didnt mean to come off as a asshole in my previous post, I just thought it was funny how ppl had no idea what they were talking about.

[Haze]

......... Bah, poker is like sex, everyone thinks they know what they are doing and are good at it, but no one really is :)

so what you are saying is that you won't play for at $100 buy in?

sorry dude, but no one here is that big of a high roller. but if you would grace us with your presence by playing for $100 buy in's, then it would make my day, in fact, it would make my year to play with a poker player as prestigious as yourself.

what do you say?

i'll pm you when i am in town, if it is worth you time.

[omega_image]

why dont you guys just play online.

[Skitzo_Style]

i don't play online.

i want to see my opponent's faces when i play.

i just want to have a friendly game of poker.

6 to 10 players.

$100 buy ins.

forget the egos, forget the "im too good to play for $100" bullshit. just grab a case of beer, a set of 500 chips and play some god damn texas hold em'!

[kevnito]

technique what engine are you playing on? i tend to have a little money online at times. maybe we can play a few hands

[Technique]

I play mostly on full tilt and stars, and I apologize I should never have even posted in this topic was a bad idea.

Im not even that serious about poker anymore. I used to play for a living off and on for the last year but have a really good job now so dont play as much as I used to. I never said I was that good or anything but good enough to beat 200NL over about +250k hands.

Anyways nevermind, if anyone ever wants to play for some fun maybe do a HU sng on stars or whatever pm me ur tilt/stars screen.

[Pennywise]

I use fulltilt and true poker.com
