pretty good start to the month, can you guess where i found the amazing wonder that is table selecting skills and only 9 tabling 100nl instead of mirrion tabling 50?

 

[WVHillbilly]

LOL no wonder i wasn;t getting a response...WVHillbily qouted the wrong email for their support lolol

Sorry man. I think I did the same thing in another thread today. Need to learn to check my facts.

 

[KingCurtis]

niche garph as you would say

so I am making more folds like this lately..I know it's 5nl but I was reading entys article on micros and really think that making these lay downs is helping me lately especially if the flop was low?

[c9h13no3]

Ahhh.... recovered from my downswing last month in 1 session.

 

[feitr]

Once I do make it to 25nl probably 50nl, I want coaching lessons, how much would someone charge me on here cuz i only want a CC member tbh

Can't imagine coaching is worth it until you are playing nl200 or higher in order to offset the cost of lessons. Not to mention that you certainly don't need lessions to beat micro/low cash games.

Poor guy. You know when his case 3 completed the flush he was dancing on the freaking ceiling. I guess he just forgot to bet. Must have been a waffle eater.

Then stop playing.

Seriously knowing when to quit is a huge factor in playing winning poker.

 

[Infamous1020]

Good job - how much did you win?

won like 1kish, then beat DJ Sensei in a fairly big pot at 600nl

Any people bothering to vote today?? I'm thinking UKIP for the euro elections but the local ones are troubling me, i don't think labour should be running the country as a whole but my town has improved drastically in the last few years and we have a labour mp running the show so i might have to bite the bullet

 

[Irexes]

UKIP = not very thinly veiled racist party.

Other than that it's all the same.

 

[BelgoSuisse]

You can always try out sites like http://www.euprofiler.eu to fit your opinions to a particular party.

 

[eNTy]

I has to vote on sunday on flemish parliament afaik but im in a different country
strange ?

switch, ur graph says oh hai to god

 

[Dorkus Malorkus]

i'm voting BNP today

UKIP = not very thinly veiled racist party.

Other than that it's all the same.

Are they?? I didnt know this, their main point for me is getting out of the eu, i don't like ministers in brussels having so much of a say over what happens in britain, banana sizes amongst other things lol

The banana size thing is kind of an urban myth.

Seriously, the cost/benefit ratio for the UK (or any other member) to belong to the EU is just overwhelmingly in favor of maintaining EU membership. EU is far from perfect, but it's really not that bad an institution either. Much lower cost than any other institutional level. Much smaller administration. One of the best parliament around in terms of the quality of the arguments heard there.

The major problem EU has is that whenever a national government screws up, they defect the blame towards the EU in order to avoid getting punished by their electorate. But there is virtually no EU decision that can be taken without the approval of the national governments, so it's total bullshit.

 

[switch0723]

us brits are meant to vote for something today? meh, is it important?

 

[Jurn8]

Anybody know how many hands at 25nl it would take to get 450 points on Paddy power?

First off, that's heartbreaking. I haven't really played poker regularly in a while, but I like reading hands to keep somewhat fresh when I do hit up the tables...plus, "poker at work? that's better than work at work."

Anyway, we are raising here to balance our range, correct? I don't play these levels, but I'm guessing we still don't have much FE here PF, and limping is way too transparent. So it hopefully allows us to C-bet certain boards depending on the villians and take down more pots uncontested, which limping doesn't allow much of.

How often do you guys mix it up between raising and folding these smaller PP's preflop in early position at your stakes (FR)...in what cases, if any, would it be a good idea to limp, in relation to types of players acting after you?
