I Miss Poker - Guess My Hand!

[woohoosue]

just admit ity....you miss low stakes play with us.....and Glow bug does too. you miss us...say it!

$10 is low. And annoying low.

And i didnt have a rebuy.

lol obviously, but I would think he would have to put u on a pair lower than a ace there, w no kind of reads or image factor involved; which I still say is the only "skill" that is involed in poker/ and dont see how that comes into play online, cuz playing agressive vs cautious players and 4th grade fraction math, are not skills... its more of a "betting system"

online poker "skills" to me seem mostly like bankroll management, and the developemnt of a "intuition", which doesnt really apply here

[eejit101]

I disagree.

Firstly, as I can make reads online, very accurately. NDN should (I hope) back me up on that, Ive called countless hands spot on (or very close) by reading time, betting patterns, and previous plays.

However there are issues on the play itself. But i do think I had an ace folding there, depending on the level of player.

ya pattern recognition (betting and play) I will conceed as well, I just never consider that, cuz that can be faked... if someone plays the same hands and situations everytime, exactly the same... they are retarded

[eejit101]

No, not the same each time, but look for signs across different hands.

I get what ur saying, and I respect ur opinion, cuz u by far far know online poker much better than I do...

Im guessing my strengths are reading body language and giving off body "fake" language, and thats why I am a decent live player and about a breakeven online player.

I would be curious to see how I would play against a good online player, live... cuz I usually do well againt the guys, that talk about how they win online, but u never know if they are telling the truth or not.

but who knows, the reason I may win live is because I grind, like really hardcore, lol... know win to leave... even if I sit there for 4 hrs and made 5 bucks a hr... if its a table im at, I know is a 50/50 table, I have no problem taking my 20$ and going.

... and 5$ is the extreme low example, but ive done it before... and I know everyone says this, but I havnt been down for a mo. in like over a yr... but the most I have been up for the mo. is 800... average, prob about 300 im guessing

I play like 4-8xs a mo off and on, between 3 diff. casinos

I can only say that Eejit101 is one of those "push blind" and get lucky kind of players.

[eejit101]

Mmhmm. The above is so true it hurts.

[ScareCrowAKA]

I can only say that Eejit101 is one of those "push blind" and get lucky kind of players.

thats all the hyper aggresive stragety is... win most the time cuz people fold, get bad players to make bad calls, even the odds against good players by shoving-thus making the game mostly mathematical, by pricing yourself into the odds to hit.

[eejit101]

Yeah i dont do that.
