215'ers stay the hell out of the 55s

[mike28]

Seeing how today was my first day of running all 55s in my sets, it's only natural to look up and see DoYouSeeWhy chilling at my table.

Thanks a lot guys

[Karak567]

I see him at my tables frequently. Unless it's a different format of that name,

Played w/him a few times and caught the obvious 2+2 reference. In the half a dozen times I've played him he's struck me as above average but not outstanding. Small sample size.

[wiggs73]

I think you may have him confused with 'DoYouSeaWhy' but I could be mistaken.

[MegaBet]

rapturd...lol

I was always under the impression this was the same person.

8 215 tables, 4-8 55s.

[Hendricks433]

Same person just different sites, Empire and Party.

[raptor517]

he plays 55s and 109s. i dont think he dabbles too much in the 215s. its john hurst. holla

[johnnybeef]

Yeah, both doyouseewhy and doyouseawhy are the same person, and he is prolly the best 55 regular (only because im not there though.) /images/graemlins/wink.gif

dont worry beef hes better than you /images/graemlins/wink.gif holla

[redrooski24]

I see this guy a lot when I play also. Should I know the name John Hurst though and is he really the most consistent winner at the 55s?

[Karak567]

Is it bad that the name John Hurst doesn't ring a bell Raptor?

I looked him up on Hendon, but other than that I haven't heard of him.

lets cut the bullshit raptor, hes a pretty solid dude too....


edit: also, opening up early in the 55s isnt quite optimal. i think that opening up in the middle stages is where you will find your edge. the 55s are still loose enough early, that there is no need to risk your stack early with a marginal holding.

if you have such an edge over you r opponents playing more hands early, then WHY THE [CENSORED] ARE YOU TELLING THEM???? I'd venture to say that just about everyone who is beating up on the 109s browses this forum.

Because most people that are gonna read this and listen either play more hands already or are gonna at least start out playing them really bad. Holla.

well thats cuz you know how to play post flop which in and of itself is a huge edge.

[Deuce2High]

If the blinds never rose I would make less. Do you see why?

No you wouldn't, you would make more per S&G but way less per hour. (Unless you meant win more s&g's, not money).

This thread is pretty damn amusing. I listen to ya raptor, but you usually say what I am thinking so it's like listenening to the voices in my head. Holla!

[downtown]

Doyouseewhy and doyouseawhy are around a lot at the 55s. I've played against you as well, "rapturd" lol.

I generally avoid 2+2ers or good players if possible, but firing up tables for 8-tabling is a pain in the ass enough as it is, so table selection is not the highest priority.

Once on the 33s though I sat down on 8 in a row and on every table I sat on the same player left one after another when I sat down... I must be doing something right. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[fnord_too]

heh. My table selection is "is there a seat I want to sit in open?" (And that really means on the left or right side of the table depending on which monitor it will be on, not like favorable relative position or table strength sort of questions).

Starting 8 tables is a huge PIA.

Maybe you needed a shower

[/ QUOTE ]

Exactly. I like to sit in the corners, so that I know where to look for myself. Usually once per set of 8 I am either
1) Suprised that I am still in it
-or-
2) Surprised that I am no longer seated! (E.g. I think I pushed with kings, let me check this HH...) Bad beats are easier to take when you don't watch them happen.
