Ugh. There's no worse spot in plo than AA** vs AA** vs any 4 cards. You're usually a dog. And AA vs AA is just an irritating flip. I hate those spots so much.

Still, though, playing plo, good man! I think it's the most profitable game at stakes below $100 buyin by a mile. so long as you manage to work out how to rungood. the games on ipoker are just insaaaanely soft.

First time I've played cash games in months. Sat down at 4 50NL tables... about fifth hand in. Raise 99. Flop Q93. Someone bets into me, I raise, we go all in. Turn, Q, River, Q. He has QJo.

I love this game!

He shoved everything in on that flop? Wow.

So glad i'm running hot right now, because the fact these sort of idiots exist in the online poker world is working very well in my favour at the moment. I've been on the other side of the equation though, for a long long time running terrible with situations like that, and it's not nice at all.

[Poet]

50NL on Party is a joke. Had a few rough spots last night in a very short session. There was another where a total 60/40 weirdo fish kept pushing, I woke up with AK and lost to his 33. Probably the best hand he had when pushing as well! Still, even with two unders I'm only 2-1 there, but it'd be nice to run the right way more often than not (or at least win a few flips)!

Look what happened later, just two minutes before I wanted to end the session. Made it a small winning session.

When I didn't reraise all that much on the flop after his min check raise and he only called, I figured the fish had a flush draw and would call the turn (if not, then an overpair). Because a flush draw is the nuts yo. Pot was $40.75 and I shipped my stack (his $59.97 remaining effective stack). I love really bad poker players. Nice $155 pot to win heads up at this level.

[Chaz]

I can kind of understand his flop play there, if a bit fishy still. Especially if he is putting you on a couple of overcards. But obviously his call on the turn is ludicrous. Oh well, these are the guys who are making poker profitable for the good players! When they're not running hot with their miracle draws of course.

[Poet]

I know this isn't the thread for it but flop play isn't horrible, other than he needed to checkraise a hell of a lot more than minimum! Nut flush draw and a pair there is a monster of a hand, so I'd be playing this fast myself. His turn play is just outstanding though. Nothing pleases me more than seeing this sort of stuff at a poker table other being a part of it and winning.

[Retroid]

Another tourny lost because I had Snake eyes, I mean wtf?

Starting to really hate omaha

AJJT vs KKxx all in on flop of J92 turn 4 river K.

call from DB I check BB with J947 flop J95 I bet get reraised and call, get it all in on J turn, river A of course he has AAxx.

And my personal favourite raise from DB with ATsK3s BB calls, flop AT8 (top 2 + nfd) BB checks, I bet pot, he calls. Turn 3 (top 2 + 2 nfd) BB check raises and we get it all in, he has QJ62 (turn has given him Q high flush draw) river 9 for his straight.

[mayor_mike_haggar]

I feel your pain, i've been getting it in amazingly well tonight, only for people to keep sucking out. AAxx with a flush draw vs KKxx on a nothing flop, rivers his king. etc etc. It's a punishing game.

And yeah, that hand earlier was about as much as i could hope for. Nuts plus nfd is always nice. I was about 80% 3 ways, unheard of in omaha!

[sith]

I'm feeling a little bit sick right now. Was at the casino last night/early this morning, bought in with £80 and grinded up to £220. I'm then dealt black AA on the button, a few people call and one chinese fellow goes all-in for around £130. Obviously I follow and he shows Ah, 7d. I'm expecting to take this down with minimal fuss:

Flop comes

9s, Kh, 2h.

Turn

Jh

River

6h

Absolute bullshit of the highest order.

Poker is brutal. It's amazing how often bad beats feel like they hit! Hope it didn't hurt your bankroll too much losing to that sort of horribleness. Still, A7o squeeze play all in. Amazing! That game sounds sexy.

I was playing at a casino in China town. The Chinese are mental cases I tell ya.

They play Poker like Roulette at times, they raise £20-30 with any Ace-rag and will often chase Flush draws no matter if it costs them their full-stack.

Using poker as an excuse for gambling is awesome for the rest of us who don't. Without them we'd not have anywhere near the number of bad beat stories!

Oh I'm going to go back there for sure, if you get the timing right and hope the odds hold you could easily make £400-500 a session. It was just a crazy night in general, runner runner straights all over the place I swear every time someone flopped 2 pair, they would get destroyed on the river by a gut-shot or back-door flush.

The Chinese really have no concept of the term 'fold'. It was quite amusing to watch.

I really hope more people from mainland china start playing online soon. I have no idea why, but their culture just seems to produce the sickest gamblers.

Where is this casino? China town part of London near Charings X? If so I must check it out, been doing a little research and trying to look for a good casino for tournaments in Central, as the cash games are usually a little more pricey than I would like, but if I can expect regular play of that nature i'd be much more inclined to give it a go.

Oh, which one's that? I never knew there was a casino down there? I used to live in hulme, see. Was sometimes tempted by the nlhe games in some of the casinos, but it's not really my game. Maybe that would have changed my mind!
