Yeah, you really mucked this one up badly. Sadly, suckouts will happen. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Am I the only one that caught this? You limped in with QQ, a very excellent hand but also very vulnerable to overcards. Do you really want people with A7o getting a chance to limp in with you, catch an ace on the flop and then break you?

Was this a pathetic attempt at "slow playing" like you hear about on TV?

You also have to bear in mind in online tournaments and SNG's morons are quick to call big bets and all'ins early on, so you will get paid off by raising initially.

You then attempted to reraise hte mini raise (he miniraised to 30 and you reraise to 100, as best I read it). You have to look at how much money is on the table and what sort of odds you are giving people to chase.

you tell me. the guy was like a million to one underdog when he flopped NOTHING, and youre asking if he knew it was coming? im sorry that everyone is being so rude but sometimes its just so obvious that its not worth asking.

i suggest getting into stud. the developers (one of whom i know very closely. you can pm me for details) have not gotten around to developing card trackers for stud yet so that should be safe.

I'm not a betting man, but I would bet my life that this "hadjisme" is a cheat and is using some kind of illigal device.
I would write a letter.

They've been working on a tourney version for some time. There's even a wristwatch version for live play - Steve Dannenmann beta-tested it during the WSOP. Obviously it isn't perfect.

The guys around here sure love a good joke...

Seriously...there is a piece of software (I won't name it here)
that is used this way: you enter the hand# and it will decode
it (like a barcode or a checksum) to determine what 5 cards
will appear on the flop. This is also used by Party Support to
determine if there was any hacking, etc. because they can just
decode the number string to get the flop that was supposed to
hit.

The bad part is you cannot read opponents' hole cards or determine
what order the cards will hit the flop...just the cards themselves. There
is a known bug when using the "four color deck" option that will not
correctly assign the right suit to a card, but the rank is the same.

I really hate that software like this exsists...but if you are among the
few people who use it then all the better. Be VERY CAREFUL trying
to download it online or from another player, because there are often
"backdoors" like viruses and utilities that let your "friend" see your
hole cards.

Best of luck, and hurry before Party changes their checksum
algorithms after the 1st of the year...(although they will crack
the new one too eventually!)

It's a $10 tourney, what do you think? Feel free to engage your brain before posting.
