            How about we get a game where we value points as credits? ie, before the game, we all transfer x credits to the game host. and when we cash out, we recieve our credits back.

            think that would be an interesting way to spend creds.

                According to PTR lumpho is down 3k in cash games

                Do you play mostly SNGs? I can't stand them really. They're pretty soft at the lower stakes but boring. I'll sit like 20+ of them at the same time. If you move up everyone knows how to optimal SNG and it's a ****ing flip fest with such little edge.


                I mostly play low stakes cash games on tilt. Favorite game is deep heads up NLHE. I like Omaha but I'm not terribly good at it compared to NLHE.

                I like the 0.25/0.5 games; I've got well over 100,000 hands on there now, and my edge is pretty big ( < 5 bb/100) w/ 12 tables. A nice TAG game with good use of a HUD makes the game pretty soft for those interested.

                Have made a lot of money at those stakes and don't really feel like moving up. Have tried a couple of times and didn't run well, not to mention the players are stronger. Played well but ran -EV and lost too much of my roll, so I moved back down.


                Anyway, I hate playing on stars. With that said, I might take a peek into these games. Could be fun, but given the fact I never play on stars I don't have any play money chips. Does that matter? Let me know.

                I have millions on full tilt if anyone wants to play there, but alas...damn poker stars and it's ugly GUI.

                If I need chips, any games in particular that are especially soft? I like the rush games on FT; I was bored one night and wanted to test rush games;ran about 10k hands w/ 4tables at 100/200 and ran up 2 million in winnings (With reloads on every double up, effective edge 100 bb/100 lmao).

                  yeah i'm up 10,000$ in sngs and big tourneys look on sharkscope under stars/all games. as far as i'm concerned cash tables are rigged. i take 1 and 2 outers on there like it's nothing.

                  EDIT: on stars i frequent the 119$ and 114$ tables most of the time and i'd say about half of us have optimal sng strategy down so theres still room to make $

                    Hand sample? I've gotten blasted lately in some pretty hilarious sessions. I dropped 12 BI in the 0.25/0.5 game last week in under 1000 hands HU. Some guy steam rolled me and it was like every hand was rigged. It was the worst hit I've ever taken. With that said, I won it all back and more later.

                    Basically, 1/2 outers are pretty common dude and if you haven't clocked well over 10k hands you probably just had bad sessions.


                    Really, only half? If it's that soft I might consider them again if I need money or a break from cash games, but on tilt when I moved up I wasn't hitting any fish. Everyone was a tight nit and super aggro as the bubble approached. Maybe just bad luck.

                        Yeah these runs happen. I played live with some old friends almost every day during winter break. And I'd lose 80 dollar pots, 120 pots while being an 80%+ favorite with all the chips in the middle and he literally hit the underdog about 5 or 6 times in a row in huge pots in a span of a week and a half. If he needs to hit a gut shot on the river, he'd hit the gut shot, even if the other person all in has one of his outs and the other person is drawing dead. He was making every draw. It was getting to the point where I actually questioned legitimacy but there was nothing fishy going on except for my big downwards spike on the line graph of chance. I was down like 215 dollars at this point for live play for winter break.

                        Then in one day I profited 340, hands held, bluffs worked, image building went how I wanted it to. I had bought in only for 20. Everything went right. Then the next day I made a modest 180. This person I'm talking about is one of like 4 others but he's a complete fool at the table and it's always a shame to see him win.

                          Okay, I signed up, but I don't have any cash on there right now. I use Full Tilt Poker instead because I just enjoy that more. But I can put money on it if I need to.

                              Jesus dude. Well, that's the beauty of tourneys I guess. Nicely done.

                              One good run can make you a lot of money, whereas you just rolled the equivalent of me grinding for several months XD

                              With that said I've had zero luck in tourneys thus far. I've ran fairly deep a couple of times, but every time it comes down to an all in situation when I'm pretty close to big money, and I get it in good and get sucked out on. Urg D:

                                Poker is one of those games I am embarrassed to admit I don't know how to play.
