Saw you got mail earlier. Pretty oldskool but easy to watch.

Dumb question but have money on it.

Won't say what side im on:-)

I think the main problem is you rep absolutely nothing by c\r flop on that board. As played its a fold.

Cloverfield.

Absolutely terrible.

wow. player power threatening a sit out stops the change.

[  ] this was the reason

What was then? I can't see why a company would not respond to a large section of their customer base kicking off for the world to see?

No point trying tto make 10% off your regs if you lose 15/20% of their custom/volume.

How do you see it as large? I am assuming it was a few hundred at the absolute max of winning players who post on 2+2?

I see that as a tiny group and a group which pokerstars would most benefit (in the long run) if they got rid of them.

I agree with the numbers but other forums such as this use NVG etc as a quasi RSS feed for poker. I think even if this manages to effect even 500 regs play thereyou have to bare in mind the volume/amount of tables they play. Pokerstars even announce these events to 2p2 so they obviously value the communities opinion and from what i can see there is no overt mutual financial interest.

Cardroom manager dealt with this horribly. He really needs to think about how to keep a decent atmosphere and diffuse such situations.

You however have berated a dealer publicly instead of mentioning it quietl to the manager and he could give advice based on your concern, therefore helping your local card room and also not making someone feel needlessly targeted in their place of work.

Equally getting up and demanding this and that rarely works the way we want. Yet by folding your membershipin half and walking out they lose a customer who brings in3k worth of money to the company, yet they alsi lose somebody who publicly ridicules their staff instead of improve the room.

Attitude adjustments needed all round.

In that thread I imagine everybody sounding like Sheldon out of the big bang theory.

for some reason i read player 5.

This is a fold vs 8

Pretty tough spot. Think you are ahead here enough vs a mega fish here enough.

his AF is real low but his range is basicly any flush Imo and boats ofc.

Ithink he doesnt have bare trips/ bigger flush all the time because his 3 bet is quite high. Its basicly normally a boat or small flush. Tiny chance he has nfd iguess. Enough to stack off.

A couple things in your posts make me think that playing nl200 would be a massive mistake.

-if you havn't got a HUD up to this point. I would not introduce one at this point at nl200

-if this is boredom based and you will have a few hours i would just consider playing lower and using the time to read up on advice on hands/ also best uses of a HUD etc.

-if you find playing poker at less than nl200 online i would be concerned you dont enjoy poker as much as you think and its about an amount to gamble.


Good luck whatever the outcome is.

hey Alex congrats on a fantastic year.

Where you was in feb/early March is kind of where i am today. So looking at your blog today for the first time was quite cool. I remember playing at dtd when you was dealing and also more so random donkaments in 2010.

a few points.

shocked you didnt really play with a hud online for so long.
well done on tidying up your image.
Good luck in2012 and hopefully if u down london way well clash.

So to sum up beggar and chooser were friends who managed to break down the stigma of tramp/ civilised people relations?

Top blokes I say.

TLDR

So your point about the buy in? Actually its fine I'm done tapping.

Pretty standard call Bob imo. And why is A5 a snap and A4 a fold?

shows what I know - I thought Jake's A4 was a fold

I would have folded that tbh.

Against Alex it's a call. Against the other two an easy fold

Your say that like it's the only possible answer. I'm thinking bigger picture, Cody has a playable stack now and has a good chance of running over the table, he does not need to gamble. I think its marginal tbh.

His edge actually comes from knowing the A4 is a call here in the long run

I understand, but you can argue it both ways, its not as clear cut as your saying I don't think. Even Jake had to think about it, he knew it was marginal for him.

Case in point. Cody just rejams QJ against Alex. Again you could argue he can use his edge in better spots. In fact this is a good spot and Jake is good enough to know it

But as you know re-jamming is totally different than calling  

That's the beauty of poker there often isn't a 100% correct answer

ICM

This ain't a $10 MTT you know  

Errm pretty sure Cody plays enough volume to make the buy in irrelevant.

Anyway, we can agree to disagree.
