Re: Live game and online poker.. Which one is better?

Advantages of live poker: -Better ability to read opponents and pick up tells, obviously. Even in a 3-6 limit game, you quickly get an idea after sitting down who is the table maniac, rock, clueless fish, etc., and can adjust your game accordingly. -Social aspects of the game (very underrated). -Collecting...

Re: Kids, don't try this at home.

Actually, there were 2 reasons for my play in the 2nd hand. First, the player was a total fish. Don't know if I could explain it but I knew I had him if a heart came and considering my added outs by hitting a pair I had 15 cards that would help me on the river. This is a tricky hand to explain because...

Re: Getting killed on Paradise Poker ...

I play at Paradise, only because they took my credit card with no hassle. It seems very tough to win there, at all levels. There are a lot of good players there, and I don't see a lot of plain old fish. Except for me, maybe.

Re: Getting killed on Paradise Poker ...

A subject that has been hashed a lot - best place to play. Depends on what you're looking for - good competition, fish, graphics, fast play, lots of players, reliability, etc. Check the thread "Online Poker is Rigged". I play Paradise, Party, and Poker Stars. Full Tilt is a popular one...

Re: Nuts!

I am seriously thinking of leaving UB because of the difficulty of getting hand histories. Stars is nuts because of those eyeballs. Considering I'm a novice and prefer to fish in ponds with more and smaller fish, is Stars the right way to go? Aren't the players at Stars generally better than...

Re: I got made fun of... what do you think?

Thanks for the reply, Otter. (and others) I agree the call on the flop is the most questionable call I made. You are right that I should have expected a raise and anticipated it in doing my figurin'. I didn't. Your reply will help me to consider this down the line. Even so, with four outs and...

Re: I got made fun of... what do you think?

I'd be upset with those Kings also - but he should be more upset at himself for capping the river. He's a fish himself. I rarely chase gutshots, as 4 outters rarely come... also what if you're raised on the flop by the button?

Re: I got made fun of... what do you think?

Seems to me you considered every move, thought it was worthwhile, and followed up with action. A fish in this situation would have been calling hoping for that 10 - you were calling with reason. Big difference. Same results. From their perspective calling you fish means it wasn't their fault you...

I got made fun of... what do you think?

I'm in late position holding . Two limpers in front of me and I call. The button raises and the BB and two others call. I call. Five to see the flop. Pot is 5.5 BB at this point. Flops is . One bet in front of me and I call. The pot is paying 10-1 on this call and I have two cards to go on my inside...

Re: Interesting Statistical Analysis

Today I hit 6 month since a day I started to use PokerTracker. So far I have 26,000 ring games hands loaded into it. I did not load any tourney. I found it just terrific. Actually the best feature there (for me at least) is the rating of the opponents. I get 5,500 players in PokerTracker DB, 600 of which...
