****July Poker Chat Thread****

[Emperor IX]

Met the juiciest $5 HU sng player ever today. Only raised with a good fr hand (pre and postflop), called off all his money nice and quick, and best of all: ACCEPTED THREE REMATCHES.

I think break even poker at the beginning of the month is now a ritual.

Summer break + Part Time Job= Volume= Iron Man=$$

 

[zachvac]

but thats not full ring, thats a sexy 3 handed table

lol I've done that at FR, wasn't saying anything about it being bad, just that it'll obviously lead to high variance.

I went from xxx.5 FPPs, to xxx.04

It was weird enough having .5, but now .04?

Then .54, now .59, .89, ... .03,

Iron Man only equals $$ twice a year and you'll be at basic when July = $$.

Sorry KC.

"You are 437% more aggressive than optimal. Be a lot less aggressive!"

 

[zachvac]

btw for my normal grader it says I'm pretty close to optimal in loose/tight preflop but I should be less aggressive preflop. They really want me to limp more? Best one is this though: http://www.pokertableratings.com/fulltilt-grader/durrrr

That's right boys and girls, TR just told durrrr to fold more often:

"You showdown 26% more often than optimal. Fold more often."

 

[pantin007]

that makes me believe that they have some holes in there system ldo

i am not completely convinced this slide conveyed accurately what he was talking about at the time

Flat more in position, imo.

And about durrrr, TR is obviously not able to compile relevant stats for 100000nl. But for lower stakes, i think they have enough data to give pretty good estimates on how the really good tag play.

 

[bw07507]

Wooo, I get an A from TR as well

Response from Hollywood, Is this normal to have reserved in game funds?

Thank you for contacting HollywoodPoker support.

I have looked into your account and can confirm that there are $30.00 'reserved in games'. When players bring funds to table games, these funds are taken out from the players' account balance and reserved in games. In cases where players are abruptly disconnected from game tables - these funds are stuck as 'reserved in games' funds as players did not manage to properly exit table games.

In order to allow the 'reserved in games' fund to be returned to your account balance, we would suggest you to stop playing. The funds of $30.00 reserved in games should be returned to your account within the next hour.

In cases of downtime or mass tournament disconnections, there might be delays but the funds should be returned not longer than 24hrs from the downtime/mass disconnection.

However, if the mentioned funds are not returned to your account, kindly get back to us and we will have the technical team to return the funds manually to your HollywoodPoker account.

If you are referring to a tournament, kindly note that once the frozen tournament issue is resolved, we will compile the required information to perform mass refund. Our most sincere apologies for the inconvenience.

Should you have any further queries, do not hesitate to contact us.
