I recently switched casinos. I am now on a different one. I have significantly noticed something strange. I am getting paid off well on my winning hands. This first week of about 2000 hands of 2/4 full rings I am up over $1000?

I am taking my share of beats, I am even losing money on KK, and AKs. Is this just a statisically annomoly or did i just find a fish pond?

I looked through my poker tracker and relagated the wins mostly to getting 2 people calling raises all the way to the river.


For the conspiracy nuts out there, my brother thinks u get better hands in the begining on the casinos.


Anyone esle out have this noticed this lately? Or am I just luckier than a pig in [censored].

I have been playing higher, but have recently went back and played $2/4 games, as
I think they're optimal for clearing bonuses and for rakeback...(b/c it's easier and safer to multi-table it (for me anyways) then to multi-table 5/10 or 10/20...)

If you can beat 5/10 and 10/20, then going back to 2/4 is a pure joy...it's so easy...you can 4 table it and still kill it at every table...

The people in Real casinos at 2/4 still probably aren't "experts" but they don't play nearly as badly as those that do online...
(although I do not have a lot of live 2/4 B & M casino experience...lol).

My advice with your big hands like KK, AK, and AA is to not get fancy with them and
to just raise pre flop to knock ppl. out - NEVER limp with AA or KK, etc. (unless in a really tight game...and if you find this at 2/4, then leave!).

Welcome to the wonderful world of online poker - make sure you get deposit bonuses, free chipsets, and rakeback to go with all the 100s of Big Bets you are sure to be winning as the 1000s of hands go by!

You think online games are softer than B@M?

Not on Party and the x-skins it's not. Both 1/2 and 3/6 clear bonuses faster than 2/4 due to the rake structure.

And to the OP, nobody cares. You're running good. No other explanation. Enjoy the downswing when it hits.
