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

[Monoxide]

I cant cash in tournaments and its just adding to my problems.... I keep sneezing over and over and over and my nose hurts now, ****ing jesus I hate pollen its always like 3-4 weeks every year its so ****ing bad, im life tilted right now from it.

I prolly sneezed 100 times yesterday.

 

[Deco]

Just to be clear, we havn't left, we are in neutral ground

Very good to hear.Hope it sorts out.

Deco, I'm slycbnew at stox as well - but I only use stox for the videos, all my chatting/HA stuff is here (dumb, I know, since I pay for that service and this one is free).

Damn I'm the opposite. I've been a member for 18months now and must have watched no more than a dozen videos. Any recommendations?

I was an utter forum whore up until my free membership ran out then I joined here.

How is poker treating everyone?

50 NL is finally going well for me. I've broke out of a 20K break even streak and managed to up my BB/100 to 3. When that includes the break even stretch I really have been running like god this month

Took abit of a bump taking shot at 100NL, but ah well.
I'm also thinking of waiting till I have 25buyins rather than 20.
20 just doesn't seem to be approved off lately when it comes to bankroll management.
Anyone use 20BI's successfully?

I have an account at Betfair. No personal experience at that low level, but I just fired it up and had a look. It`s just about peak time in the UK right now. There are currently about 20 6-max tables in play, but only one full-ring.

How many tables do you FR grinders play usually?

 

[orangepeeleo]

raise 93o on the button??

i think my raising range in late positions for 6max is too tight....

Is this a standard raise with 1 lp limper??

if limper likes to call pf and folds way often to a c-bet then i suppose its not bad

and @ jake i only play 6

I would say it depends on the blinds and the limper.

I do 4 regularly but only because of screen size. I'm moving up to 8 web I get my new computer

set for life idk but you seem to do well in them

those are quite easy to play if you ask me. and its good for your small roll as long as your ok with winning small amounts at a time

 

[Jagsti]

Betfair software will make you want to gouge your eyes out with a garden fork imo!

Maybe not set for life lol,but a good start.

You have 8 buy-ins right now,so a bad run could wipe you out,but If you run like you have obviously your on your way.

Man sngs are enough to make me smoke again, but I have a plan! I shall play more tables huzzah!

its kind of more than 8 buyins because in a sense its the 2.25 split into four tables/a separate prizepool

the villain in question limp called 42% and Folded to cbets 69% over a decent sample. I was isolating with any 2 vs him.

6 atm.

yuck...just stacked AA over QQ against some random deep guy 2 hands him being at the table. I lose.

Really? That bad?

I can't wait to go to Vegas this month and play poker!! Will anyone else be there this month?

It`s not as ugly as it used to be, but definitely functional rather than pretty.

Cool, my vpip/pfr for 6max is around 17/15 atm and i've been thinking i need to loosen up a bit, just to get a bit more action really, i just seen that and it was more like wholly s**t i really do need to loosen up!!

But yeah with villain stats as they are i can understand, still i dont think i would be opening with 93o though lol i dunno if i have the balls, then again i do play micro 6max so plays like this are quite bad in general as you get called down so bloody light!

 

[Jagsti]

Really? That bad?

I certainly thought so.
