Default Pacific Poker players ??

I got 25$ free from there, and sitting was wondering if somebody from here plays there? Really doesn't feel that good after playing on Stars and Party, but how are the players there? Till now I have seen some good ones, so what is the opinion of 2+2 ers ??

Some hands till now...

This guy stayed in with 34s on the flop of KQ8 and caught the backdoor flush with the final Board KQ8TA and took down a nice pot...urgh. The same person some hands earlier, nicely played his set of 5s against my AK, when the flop
was A45.

Default What do you think about this hand...lol

I am in MP in 78s. I call.

3 others players including SB and BB to the flop. Flop is 8J3

SB checks, BB checks, I bet, fold, fold, BB calls.

Turn Q.

I bet, he calls. River is a Q, I bet, he calls.

Shows me Q6...I really don't know how he stayed in on that flop.

I also realise I can't put notes on players??

i started the exact same way as you, with a 25 dollar bonus from pacific, from that i built my whole bankroll. The games are very soft, but you can only play one table at a time. I player there until i had a couple hundred bucks then moved some to Party. When i play now i always play 3 party/empire and one pacific. Good luck...

i wouldnt limp with this hand unless other had limped before me, i think that if you open-limp with a suited connector you can't be sure that enough people will come in after you. Also, i would check behind on the river. Pacific software blows but the games are really soft.

The players are unbelievably loose passive. I played Pacific for 6 months and could count the good players I saw on one hand. If you can deal with the pitiful software (I can't) it isn't bad to play one Pacific table along with say one party table.

By the way, if you have played Party in the past it's going to take what seems like 100X as long to clear that $25 in bonus money if you are playing micro limits.

I played there to clear a bonus. the only player I saw there who was respectable was thirdan.

I literally crush those games. Now I just need more Bonus bucks to clear.

The players there are some of the worst Ive seen. Worse than Party.

Lots of money to be won there for sure..but the interface sucks..pretty much no frills and no multitabling.
