Why aren't you playing?

I used to think villain reg here was a good player, like good enough to fold overpairs, I cant make out if his move here was bad or so godly that he put me on the exact hand i have which also happens to be the only hand in my range that he beats

that hand is weirding me out switch

edit: anyone know of a eurotrash site (naturally they will have a soft player pool) that doesn't rape me in rake ?
i checked out NoiQ and their rake system is so completely awesome for HU but the fact that there is such a low traffic, even for a small euro site, and that it's in actual Euros and not dollars is bad.

Anyone know what the rake on party HU is like ? Feitr, you there ? I got 20% ish rakeback there iirc.

meh classic case of "omg I might be good here and even if I'm not flush draw gotta get it in because calling off would be bad". He just plays this pretty awful imo.

 

[KingCurtis]

Man I really have been taking advantage of regs at 25nl, at first i thought they were the ones to stay away from but I can 3 Bet there OTB and CO raises 90% of the time and TID there and I''m c-betting the flop a lot also so they are so exploitable.

He's gone, man. Let it go.

wait what happened to feitr?

I was gonna ask the same about ChrisTC as it happens...

 

[eNTy]

500 hands, $50 in rake, I think that rates as bad .

He's gone, man. Let it go.

Fell into Mount Doom afaik.

 

[jewboy07]

wait what happened to feitr?

didnt he get all hyper frustrated and quit? or did i imagine that?

 

[blankoblanco]

500 hands, $50 in rake, I think that rates as bad .

that does sound bad. whats the difference between everest's rake system and noIQ's?

 

[pantin007]

i love it when there is a fish at the table with a deepstack who thinks he is the best player on the table. he loses a pot and calls his opponents idiots not knowing that he only had 30% equity in the hand

ps this is omaha

 

[Suited Frenzy]

This hand should make WV proud. Even though I wasn't that strong, I seen a ton of limpers & thought I'd raise because of it. I didn't let the open limper get away w/ open limping WV, proud? Oh yea, I have 100 BBs here too HaHa :top:

I just barrel and try to get it in, so many FD+ medium PP in his range.
Also i raise alot bigger prf there are allready 4limpers infront so i probably make it .12-.14.
I like a ..55 turn bet cause its about the size that a villain holding 99 things he has FE against

 

[WVHillbilly]

Well let's see. You're OOP and get to see a free flop so I don't mind checking there at all! If you are going to raise in that spot though I'd make my preflop raise MUCH larger. Something like .16 I'd say. As played just keep betting. I'd say something like .65 on the turn.

 

[cAPSLOCK]

Looks like he is drawing so offer him the worst pot odds possible.

 

[cAPSLOCK]

Oh something else.. I don't want to speak for WVH... but IMHO I kinda like limping into a family pot if I am OOP with something like QTs.

Said as much above, so speak away.

 

[eNTy]

I didn't really check out Everest's hu rake system, I just know how much I payed in that small sample, but NoiQ has a great one.
0.05 for every 1 euro in the pot in rake, max 75c rake per hand in hu.

Everest is probably like max $3 and im getting raped because of it.
The problem with noiq is that it's in euros, so i cant play 50 euro hu there.

I think going back to tilt is the best option at this point, rakeback is bless and a lot more traffic than the smaller sites. And not some ridiculous low hands/hr as well.

 

[jewboy07]

so im finding lil waynes "ready for whatever" and "no quitter, go getta" are pretty much motivating me to play

 

[switch0723]

afaik, feitr made it pretty well known that he really really didnt like playing poker, just did it coz it was easy money for him, he then got frustrated at a rough patch and didnt think the money was worth the distress of playing something he hated so he quit

I imagine chris tc went broke again with his 10 buyin brm
