Who plays online poker on here ?

Home
I'm going blind on this one but because of the sheer number of hands played it often appears that there's a lot of staggering hands.

Why thank you hft im not a clueless  bully then after all

Nothing like bullying a poker table tho is there, big stack.

Agree that playing with friends you have to be able to bluff poor hands

But how do you bluff good hands, go online and take a look, I folded my poor hands, I have to play the good though otherwise what's the point playing?, if your going to start throwing ACES because it looks a "set up action flop" then you might as well jack the game in altogether ffs. towards the end I was throwing top pairs because of it.

I'm so relieved I'm out of there, it was dragging me down, actually depressing me the amount of times it was bad beating me, no way to live, at least with horse racing if you get a none ride out for a place you can be calm and get it back, sorry but online poker just keeps "mugging you off" in the long run.

I'm relieved I'm no longer angry about it, I'm sitting here pleased its over, watch a film and relax and enjoy life, stick to horse racing in future and maybe play a bit in a casino once a month with a proper dealer and proper people

HFT,
Is there no Online activity that you have not taken part inHappy

Online homosexual dating....

I am relieved to hear that,HFT

hft . . No i ment its a great feeling being big stack and bullying , not that you do it.

I am so out of form Stevie Gerrard is phoning me up for tips...

Never understood poker "professionals" that play long hours (and I get Pokerplayer magazine sent for free) and have time to post online knocking people..

My point would be if you are that good and you win so much why not play 24/7/365...

Why hold Tutorials,enter offline and generally waste your time...

So many good players - where are all the bad ones...

Hft as a man to admit your Shute at poker is akin to admitting you av a 2 inch knob

Everybody wins at the poker table and on bet fair don't they. . . . .

Fooking hell, I've only been offline for two hours and there's 60 new posts on here, I started to read them then got bored. But to contradict HB1989 I'm pretty sure Victor Bloom won his first 'live TV' tourny he played in. And you losing 22 hands on the trot calling every street with just 11 euros is absolute tosh.

How dare you go offline for 2 hours

It was limit poker kenbo but you only read what you wanted to read yet again. Don't worry pal everybody hates me and wants take me on, mock me, insult me, the whole world has it in for me, fu ck em.

Utter muppets the lot of your

NL is worse. utter muppets throwing their last £20 on 45..

At least limit limits what they can throw in the pot.

H b I think I've been fair in what I've said, I certainly don't hate you.

Hth

Feck me King ...

The proven cheat Ivy reckons he can win millions playing online...

Day in day out..

And then takes a day off to make a video that most young pups will download for free...

King if you are that good why are you on here taking the rise out of one of Betfairs finest when you could have filled your pants...

Please do not tell me that you can multi-table 20 times and still post on here...

Because I will not have it...

Everybody hates me, I don't care, I gladly take it as I know I'm right and their wrong, fu ck em, I go against the grain and they hate it, they look at me and think why cant I be like him.. the answer is simple, you have a yearning to be accepted, I don't.. You don't want to be neglected, peer pressure, its why most 13 year olds will take that drag behind the school shed, because if they don't they get laughed at, I pity the one's who feel the pressure to take that drag, its why people who work in good jobs go on a night out and accept a line of coke with their idiot mates, because if they don't they fear mocking will commence... Its easier to say yes rather than no. I say no, and if they laugh I precede to kick the sh it out of them mentally.

This multi table stuff.  Is it like doing 12 books at bingo.

Kod as admitted to all the bad beats and basically doing his money..... and yet carries on playing, that right there shows him for the mug that he is,

Difference being with horse racing kod is that you can trust the jockey to ride out enough times for places to make sure your bankroll keeps steadly rising, you cannot trust online poker, I cant anyway, it seems most who play play of instinct rather than skill, they happily go all in if they think they will drop it, and they don't have to sit next to the person they've sucked out on, they are in the comfort of their own home without prying eyes. put them in a live situation and they wouldn't play that garbage, you can get a read on people live, and I guarantee you can read them like a book, check matt damon dropping that full house on the flop for instance, the fish around the table picked him up straight off and he won f uck all with it.

online poker = too many action flops, too many action hands for it be realistic.

but I don't expect any of you to take it seriously, you think its all legit and normal and standard to be bad beated with these hands I've described, yes you can be bad beated with these hands, but 10 times in one session. not normal and no amount of bs from you lot will change my mind on it.

I didn't read it was limit poker, I did say I couldn't be arsed reading it all. It's still highly unlikely that you lost 22 hands in a row though. What's 1 doubled 22 times? I've only got 20 fingers and toes so that sum's just out of my reach, it was HU wasn't it?

And I quite like you HB1989, so you don't have to exaggerate your badbeats for my sympathy.

On a brighter note, my nephews are going to be mascots at the Derby vs Chelsea game.

My bedtime now.

Think it was Gary player who said that koddy

Are you terry griffiths

It was on micro stakes granted but it was 22 straight hands in a row, I went out to see how many times he was going to win, wasn't about losing the poxy 11 euros. but I've also experienced it on midim stakes as well. its all well and good being "skilled" but you can only do so much with a top hand only to be bad beated, and you can only do so much if its giving you 47offsuit and him the AKsuited, funnily enough I did not once bad beat him last night with these poor hands which strengthens my hatred for the fu cking thing.

When they are going to call any bet with anything what the hell can you do?, if you go all they go all in, if raise big they just flat call it and chase the outers, I said yesterday it also has something to do with the idiot players your up against, and most think they can play the bloody game but they are dead wrong.

But the software allows sloppy play

He said it when he holed out of a bunker a woman said that was lucky . . . He answered that immortal line and he is right.

Thought it was trevino who said it after doing jacklin from the bunkers?  Anyway trevino also said "There's two things that won't be around for long, pros that hole long putts for pars and horseburger"

I ain't talking about micro stakes, micro stakes are mainly for fun, and I understand people going all in with 2 euro, its the medium stake loose players, and like I said the premium hands don't hold up enough for my liking, its all well and good tightening up and value betting, but only to then be done playing a set and getting bad beated, I have spent all afternoon giving out examples KOD.

Nah it was player mate defo

I am mainly talking about heads up here by the way KOD

If you play on a 6 seater table, you have the whole issue of 2 players colluding.

Either way you get mugged long term

yep , that is a gary player quote

Is called b u m hunting and that's why your called arseburger1989

Arse burglar,please

any hu limit player is 90% likely to be a bot or bot-aided

You know when I started this thread I didn't expect to get this many replies

It truly has been a master class, not quite up there with Zodies efforts but not bad all the same.

master class that didn't set out to be one, usually are the best though

errrr you are already signed up to the exchange

On Horse Racing I will play against anybody or machine,Dave,as I am far better than most.
I will leave poker to others.

Bots are awash on these poker sites ... they normally go under the name foe example "13563"

And they auto bet, raising every hand regardless.

and they can normally be found on the 0.40-4euro buy ins. its not hard to know when your up against one

Racingstar

You've never once tipped up an horse on here, I have never seen you in the lay comp either. instead of sounding off how about entering regs lay comp which starts tomorrow??

Horsebreath,
100% of my In Running betting is done on BF.
My strong views are bet elsewhere for very obvious reasons.
It works very well for me.
I have absolutely no desire to mark others cards (if you will excuse the pun).
I am happy to leave competitions to others

in other words "lessons are extra"

Oh yes.. your the one with the 10k...

No,Horsebreath,I merely demonstrated that I was prepared to show at least that amount to silence you once after you called me a £2 punter

And,as I recall,you called me a £2 Pensioner punter.
When I proved otherwise you then said it was my Daddies money.
It would appear that you have always been an utter prick

Are you two father and son?

It is his daddies money don't listen to him, £2 punter but his dad probably gave him 10k of his money that he got for falling of a ladder in compo cash, you them on the ads, total planks who shouldn't be near a ladder but yet get jobs on building sites.

Racingstar is clearly a bit special.. special needs.

KODY,
Like  good poker player,you never show all you have

Regretaby for Horsebreath/Arse Burglar,he cannot but help to show what he has or has not

There is still money to be made at poker.

If you want to learn the game then play heads up. You will learn more in one week @ HU than in 6 months @ 6max. Spend a few months specializing at HU and then go back to your 6 max games and see how more clued in you will be in every spot. Your game will be at a new level.

But it's like anything: you also need to be focused. People who moan like babies have no focus and will never improve. Don't moan. Don't blame other people. Don't blame the site. Don't blame the game. Blame yourself and your lack of focus. Then you can start improving and learn how to beat the game.

Sorry game but I've seen enough in 2 weeks playing online to put me off playing, its not the money I've lost, I don't losing money, if you value money then your halfway to losing it right there, you need to not have that emotion, otherwise you lose it, which is why blokes who do their cash lose, because they have a family to provide for etc, they have the kids and wife at the forefront of their minds which automatically clouds their judgement.

No what winds me up with online poker is the clowns your playing with, they raise just about anything, and you cant get a read on them online, the amount of times I've thrown cards only for that wan ker im playing to show his cards and show his bluff, I will then go in with a good hand and the bastard isn't bluffing and beats me. I've now been bad beated far too many times to care about the game, I'm past caring about it, I'm past anger I;m now firmly driving away from it with a smile on my face.

Some maybe correct in that if you learn and learn and learn you will eventually beat them, but I have a game I'm already pretty good at that makes me steady profits in horse racing, and can certainly do without another stress, it took me 5 years (started in 2009) to learn all about the form in horse racing and over the last month neglected it, which has been making steady profits to play some **** and bull online poker game, which could take another 5 years to fully get to grips with.

I admire anyone who can stick at it though and show profits.

Lol

People devote their lives to beating online poker but you try to casually jazz in for a few weeks and then moan like a baby when you lose. WTF?

I doubt very much too that you make a penny at horses. You came to poker looking for easy money and moan when you can't get it after two weeks. That means you have a very poor understanding of the work and commitment required and that you lack patience. That also means you lack these things for horse racing too. That also means that you lose at horse racing too.

Ok I lose at everything.

Not getting into anymore fu cking arguments on here with you morons tbh.

Another sabbatical is in order I think.

Don't know when I'll be back tbh, hopefully never

Only a small percentage (less than 5%) of people who gamble on horse racing are net winners over time. For poker that figure is closer to 30% i.e. one is at least 6 times more likely to be a winning poker player than a horse bettor. So if you can beat horses that means you have an innate understanding of hard work and the patience required to beat a difficult game like online poker. Yet your conclusions after just 2 weeks of casually playing poker immediately tell a different story.

Sorry mate. Not buying it. You don't make any money from any form of gambling.

The ghost of divi bird
I won't be able to play today so you can be as snidey as you like,I have other fish to fry( fish in poker parlance means not any good player)
Don't forget to pm the supine salmon spray and " ding dong bannahan" that you don't need babysitting today.  Ta

Are you sure your old enough to be on this site deepblue???

This is getting pityiful

I have arisen and therefore am no longer supine       

,I have other fish to fry( fish in poker parlance means not any good player)



I knew it, your a chip boy for Harry Ramsden

salmon spray
The word Supine has more than one meaning I would of thought that you would of known that being spelling pedant and grammar nazi.
Let me quote you from the online oxford dictionary." failing to act or protest as a result of moral weakness"
I se your boy done good yesterday appearing on the same thread as I A L without starting his usual nonsense.
You need to reign him in and stop supporting him when he is out of line.

Two posts at 2.19 and 2.20 in the morning thinking about this thread.

Poor sod.

DIvvi bird
As explained to bannatard I am not in the UK and were about 8 hours in front of you,it would be nice if you could get something right for once,hence the time it was about 6 o,clock here,I shall not be responding to you Again as I fear for your mental state and you might be a bridge jumper i wouldn't like that on my conscience. Thanks for introducing me to my new playmates bannatard and slippery salmon.

deepblue. I am not actually in the habit of defending DICKIE on here. He's a big boy and is quite capable of looking after himself. I am also aware he can be provocative and indeed he and I were on VERY bad terms when we first crossed each other. In other words I am not really interested in getting involved in the dispute between you and him,but if you keep on digging at me you and I will have a little feud all of our very own.
I hope that closes the matter.

An interesting read. There's actually some good advice too, though none of it comes from the 'its r1gged' crowd.

Go salmon go

He aint worth it mate, fook knows where paddy got him from, but he aint no challenge.

provocative am i hunny

Number ^^^^^^^***

Wac

Dickie,
Remember my advice and do not get involved with posters you cannot stand.

Racing sound advice but Knuts like dippy blue need telling I m o.

I feel exactly the same about many on here but have now decided to ignore them (would you argue with a chimp)?

Eight hours ahead of us? Where's that then, somewhere in the Far East?

Good point racingstar.

On a beach in Dubai should think kenbo, reading the betfair forum like you would.

Deepblue was a super chess computer was it not?? This thwat is a screw loose off it.

Salmon spray you got yourself involved remember so now it doesn't suit you,I will remind you how you got yourself involved you picked up on my spelling mistakes when I was having a spat with the retarded one.when I asked why you said you did it to a lot of people on the forum which was a Lie.i trawled through your posts and never found one.you were being a smart@rse trying to impress your chum and give support .

Also since I posted that I would not engage with him he has had a field day posting insults all over the forum,so I think it's safe to say you can add coward to his repotoire,lie down with pigs and you'll come up stinking as the saying goes.

.i trawled through your posts and never found one.you were being a smart@rse trying to impress your chum and give support .

Do trolls trawl?? This really is car crash stuff.

Salmon spray
You will find that supporting someone and defending them are two different things that my slippery friend is your way of getting off the hook,same as opologising to me for upsetting me when I was not at all upset I was just curious as to why you did it.
If you would of just said sorry for being an &rse that would of been the end of the matter.

WAC

That would be apologise I believe deepblue.
I'm afraid my reaction to your request for me to say sorry is the same as Mr Bird's. The chances of you having read all my 31,000+ posts on here are slim I would have thought.

salmon spray,  OK we will do it your way and have our own private little feud,you are correct I did not read all 31,000 posts but I read enough looking for the mythical spelling correction ones and never found one. However I found a couple of interesting ones like you enter a tipping comp,
With no entry fee and no prize money you tip up 1 -5 shots ( beat )  1-3 shots ( beat)  so clearly you have no intention of winning.
That in itself is poor form, but when it looks like you may be relegated  Teddy comes out of the pram and you threaten to quit.
Your thoughts please.

And I thought I'd lost all my stalkers     
Or do you hire a private detective deepblue ?

If you do I'd sack him. Please see mecca's thread wot I have just raised.

Salmon spray I told you I looked through enough of your posts to find the mythical spelling corrections,and came across a couple of gems, now my slippery friend you are trying to divert away from the issue at hand and accuse me of stalking you.
Look at your post where you threate to have our own little feud so how can I be stalking you.
So you think it is ok to be a smart @rse with a complete stranger and when it comes on top cry foul.

Why would you post on a random thread and not this one and expect me to see it you really are a slippery fish,of course you aren't going to answer my question are you. Your no sport  for a private fund.

You are a joke. You called me a liar for saying I was in the rather unfortunate habit of correcting people's spelling errors. I've found one from two days ago ffs. I think you owe me an opology.

Salmon spray, your posts are incoherent what has two days ago got to do with anything I thought I was dealing with one retard now it looks like
There's more.shall we go back to the beginning, you were a total stranger to me and I have never heard of you you came on a thread that I was having a spat with the retarded one and tried to belittle me by remarking on my spelling mistakes and poor grammar.
When I pulled you about it you said it was a habit of yours and you do  it to other  people on the forum. I looked through some posts of yours and never found one. So when I asked you to point one out you said you could not remember, instead of admitting that you had been an @rse you apologised for upsetting me,again I was not upset just curious as to why you picked on my spelling when the retarded one was on the thread with equally poor spelling as mine. I think you and the truth are strangers when it suits. Two days ago you said if I kept digging at you we would have our own feud  because of your lack of honesty I accepted your proposal. Immediately you accuse me of stalking you and go of on a tangent to avoid debating with me. You even post on a random thread to avoid bumping this one. And of course don't answer  the I question I posed what a slippery fish you.

Salmon Spray always turns up on my threads to bash them, yes I have whined and whinged about my bad beats but anyone who as played online poker will admit that bad beats happen more often online. any way like I said Salmon as taken a disliking to me and I don't know why, but its pretty sad tbh.

I called you a liar after giving you the opportunity to point a thread out of 30,000 where you corrected someone's speling mistakes you could not,
You were being a smart  @rse  but lacked the courage to admit it. This nonsense is all of your own making but instead of being a man about it your digging yourself deeper. When your in a hole stop digging HTH

Thank God for Salmon Spray........sweet relief

Horseburger I have absolutely nothing against you.
deepblue I don't know where to start with you so I don't think I'll bother. Life is too short. Have a good day.

Horse burger
Salmon is a smart arse and likes to think he is clever when the pressure is on he goes down faster than a crac ho , if you don't mind me saying there has been some good advise offered to you regards poker, I think you are out of sinc playing for money until you have found a game you like and crush at lower levels then move up. I can think of at least 20 forms of poker but only play two.

*advice

Best excuse ever to the bad beats though is this one "you play more hands online"... yes fair enough you play more hands, but that strengthens my fairy about forced action, they speed up the play creating more hands per hour, thus creating more rake. fair dues, it may be random when the whole cards are dealt, as that's been verified by the top brass, not a problem with that, but its what happens on the flop that hasn't been looked into, how the fu ck can two people have full houses and some other poor sod hits a straight?, one of the poor fu ckers full house as been nailed as well, happens far too often on the lower stake games.. fair dues it happens less on the high stake games, not criticising the high cash games, does play more random. but the below £100 cash tables are pretty ridiculous.

My thinking is why not do what they do on betvictor, with all the money they have they could do it quite easily imho and that's to set up tables with real card dealers, you join a table (similar to the roulette tables on live casino) and a proper dealer deals the cards etc, would take a bit of doing but its doable with the cash they'd still make from rake... but we all know it wont happen, they'd give some lame excuse as to why they cant but we'd know the real reason for the no answer.

I don't know where your coming from as regards online poker, the small stake mtt,s  to expensive as regards rake so you might as well play on the ply money tables until you have a solid game. You must have a strategy to play for money or go bus to your choice. Try and get a read on your opponents and when you can do that try and go through the gears to boss the table. Then play maybe a small stakes mtt  allways play within your
Bank roll.  Good luck

A deepblue is not just for xmas . . . . .

Deepblue

Good advice but play money is nothing like playing for cash, I did ok at heads up at first, got myself in front, bossed the oppo, played quite well, it was only when I got bad beated a few times I lost my confidence, everything became hard, playing the high two pair became tough after that, everything seemed to happen on the river, it got to the point where I'd be playing Aces very conservatively as to not lose as much money. Not a confidence thing I found out though, it was the two pairs I was playing were never that good, they only just held up, maybe the luck ran out tbh, it was only a matter of time playing like that tbh, not as good as I need to be.

Those bad beats though?!?! still shocking to lose them

Watching someone who reads the board like my dad brought home that maybe it wasn't the software, maybe not the player, should have seen that straight on the flop with my set of 9s, I lost the hand on the flop tbh, but that's the way it goes, you can only improve, and maybe some are right on here in that you need to keep playing and learning, 3 months isn't long enough, online poker makes it like a kid in a sweet shop though, all that so called easy money blinds you.

Ok I take your point about bad beats but what about the hole cards before the betting starts you must have a range of entry point.so if your range is wide people will pick up on that and be wary of you because they won't be able to get a read on you. If your range is narrow they will pick up on that and bluff you.if your only prepared to play premium hands you will get no action. Also pricing your bets is very important you can bet to keep people in the pot or bet to get rid. Like I said learn to crush at small stakes and move up.

Fook me it's gus hanson

Tut-tut.

Salmon spray
I hope you have recovered from your meltdown yesterday,your posts were making no sense as you went into panick mode. All the information I have on you is gleaned from what you have posted yourself,so to accuse me of hiring detectives and stalking you when it was you that threatened me with our own little feud is bit much. As you know I won't engage with DIvvi bird as I think his mental state is poor and he may be a bridge jumper
I am begining to think the same about you.there are some tall buildings in Shefield and I would not want that on my conscience.
The only good thing to come out of debacle is now you have elevated DIvvi bird to a Retards ,retard you being his follower and all.
