It's hilarious reading the exchange between FF and DB knowing they are the same person i.e. mucacho. It really is desperate stuff using a second account to (self) praise what he is saying using his primary account. It's late now but when I have a spare minute I'm sure it will be easy to find other ...

Used to grind Pokerstars, Microgaming and FullTilt back in the hayday, mainly 6-max cash and some full-ring. Poker used to pay for most of our holidays and Xmas's. Then regulation started setting in and some of the best countries, with the most fish, were ring-fenced. The casual Americans were alwa...

I see it a lot at casino's. Most people don't want to build pots. Their bet sizing is all wrong or they shove on the flop after hitting massively (depending on stack sizes and blinds etc). Too quick to take the hand down. They get all giddy and excited. There's a tell lol. Casinos - absolutely. Jus...

This was just post bubble of a series event. There was about 900 players left. Nowhere near top 2 (I wish). :o I meant on the table. When it comes down to heads-up, an awful lot depends on luck - you play the hands, unless you see the tells. I stand by what I said, and win a lot. But everybody is d...

I'd never shove on a dry flop if I'd hit a set. You want someone with top pair crap kicker calling. You don't want them folding. You want their chips. If they hit runner runner to beat your hand there's bugger all you can do about it. You played the hand out how it should be played. You're just dam...

FactualFrank

Flop's way too dry to shove that spot. The only hands that definitely call are a King, KK, AA, and deuces, and you're going to get paid from those anyway. And you fold out any other hand that you can get value out of, and obviously you fold out his bluffs. In fact K9 might not even call. He didn't ...

I’m not pushing on a flop with a set. I pushed the turn when he had 2 pair. On a rainbow board like that there is very little beating you and no point pushing. That’s a hand where you can’t do anything else. He made the mistake calling the turn with 9%. Sometimes the chips are going in A rainbow bo...

Just keep learning is the way. I have 3 WSOP cashes so far and on 2 of the 3 cashes I have bust out on a bad beat so don’t feel bad about that, the other was a flip. You need to run good and definitely a mix of skill and luck is required. One of them was just after the bubble with an average stack ...

A suited connector is just like a 76s. Such as a 7 of Hearts and a 6 of hearts.

If you're just behind the button, it's a medium hand - if nobody raises, it's normally worth calling.

I never feel bad when losing if I make the right play. It’s when you make a mistake that you feel bad. There is lots of variance in poker and you definitely need to run good in tournaments. However, you should only feel bad when u make a mistake. And I agree with you about losing when you made the ...

Absolutely. It’s good watching Negreanu’s Vlogs from the World Series.

It’s a great game that you keep improving but never fully master. I’m happy when I get my chips in good no matter what the outcome.

What is 'o' ? Offsuit. KQo is something like the King of Diamonds and Queen of Spades. KQs (suited) is like the King of Spades and Queen of Spades. 72o is the worst hand in poker, purely down to odds of getting the best hand. To get a straight would mean a 6-5-4-3 coming down on the flop, turn and ...

Poker's probably easier to make money nowadays then it was. Too many just rock up thinking it's an easy game.

Yep. I played online and in a league from 2007 to 2014. Now I only play in casino's. Casinos are superb for poker, played in many. The downside to online is the speed.
