Black A's at one of the loosest tables around!

[jagoff]

Good times then bad times!

Interpoker

Flop % around 70% avg pot around +-$30

I take my seat and after a few orbits ($78) I get this beaut on the button

EVERYONE calls $1 to me

I have AsAc and make it $6 to go (bad idea in retrospect).

I get 4 CALLERS!

Flop is all diamonds 4 6 T

First position raises to $3 EVERYONE calls (yeah including me)

Turn is another diamond Q

I fold faster than a frenchman

How much more should I have raised? I knew that these guys LOVE playing sooted cards but was there anyway to get rid of Ad5d guy that won the pot? Other than raising all in of course PF?

[Wayfare]

This is like asking:

Was there any way for me to make the flop come down differently?

[BaronVonCP]

why not raise all in?

is it because you don't want Ad5d to fold?


hmmm.

[jagoff]

I hear the sarcasm and I gotta say "I knew it was coming"! Seriously though was the raise sufficient enough considering the competition?

[Swede]

"I fold faster than a frenchman"

*laugh*

[willie]

i misplayed aces, but it was my first time at a b&m cardroom, 1-1 nl

2 call to me, i raise to......dum da dum dum dum! 3 dollars....EVVVVVERYONE CALLS

flop is jqk. ep shows strength and i fold

from here out, my standard ace raise in a game that loose is gonna be 9 dollars.

its spelled suited, not sooted

Thanks for the spelling lesson professor. Unfortunately, the day they showed spelling on 3-2-1 Contact I was sleeping comfortably after having a PB&J sandwich for lunch!
That sandwich was goot!

If you have AK and their both the same suit, then your hand is suited (i.e. it has value as a hand which is increased because your cards are the same suit).

If some fish plays 72 because the cards happen to both be clubs then his hand is sooted (i.e. it is trash but some yokels play trash when the suits match). "Suited" is intentially misspelled to mock the fact that dumbasses think that is a sufficient condition to play any hand from any position.

when i play interpoker, i don my "intarpokah" hat which blocks all logical thought and puts me into pure monkeybash mode. don't be afraid to be ugly here; these people are unlike any others on the internew playing poker right now- i'd bump preflop to at least 10, probably 15-20 (and yes, i'd get 2-3 callers). interpoker players make party players look like the final table at the WSOP, they're there to gamble, don't forget it.

"interpoker players make party players look like the final table at the WSOP, they're there to gamble, don't forget it."

Is this really true at equivilant levels of their NL games?? I've been using Party and the skins and if the players there are "good" compared to any standard then I'd love to be playing against that standard as much as possible. So I might have to give them a try if that's really the case.

There is no raise that will scare off people like that. In my session last night I had AA cracked 4 times. Once by a guy calling a 6 dollar raise preflop. He had 7 9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif in MP and hit his flush. O yea I forgot I bet 15 after the flop and there was only 1 diamond at the time.

Second time I thought I learned my lesson so I raised it to 15 preflop. Guy calls me and the flop is Q 7 9. I bet 20 and he calls. Turn is a 4. I check the rest of the way as does he. He turns up Q 4 o/s!

Third time was the worst. UTG raises to 2 dollars. Everyone calls to me on the button. I raise to, ya ready for this? 50 dollars! 100x the BB! 2 people call. Flop comes rags but one guy bets his last 10 dollars. Other caller folds and I call. He has 2 5 o/s and wins it with 2 pair.

Last time was in a tourney so it wasnt as vicious a hit to the BR. Still sucked though.

The moral of the story is that there is no limit to what they will call. You could go all in, and I am sure you would get called with K Jo/s or something like that! These players are there for one reason. TO GAMBLE! If you keep doing what your doing you will win. Today I had red AA and did the same thing with 2 callers all in. One had 88 other had KK. I hit A on the turn and broke em both. Didnt get me back where I was before yesterdays debacle, but it felt good.


Go all in! Make em pay!

[fimbulwinter]

here's the scoop:
1. the cardroom is associated with a much bigger casino site, so most of the people are gamblers, not poker players.
2. the lowest NL there is 100, so the worst NL players are at the 100.

if you have enough to lose 4-5 buyins and not be crying, go there, it's monkeypoker at its finest. the bonus is good too (90 bucks for 450 raked hands) but the bad beats can really hurt if you're playing 100NL on a typical SS bankroll.

Is the 100 NL game $1 BB? Also, are there very many games going on since its more of a casino site? Thats one reason why I love Party and skins more than anywhere else... right now they got over 50,000 people, and I'm guessing only a few hundred of them are people from these forums who are really taking a lot of money from the games.

yes, the stacks are 100BB (1 dollar blind) which makes fim happy /images/graemlins/smile.gif
typically they have 5-10 6 max games going and 8-12 full ring. not too shabby and, moreover, you can pinpoint the very few sharks that are there with ease. there are like 2 good players i've seen, all others are nuts.

if you;re playing intercasino, you can spot a 2+2er a mile away by the fact that he has 75x the buyin sitting at the table.

I say this with earnest:

This is one of the best replies to a sarcastic twitty comment in a long time. Not only did it subtlely mock the man who played grammarian, but it was well prosed and provided an excellent explanation. I laud you, sir!
