Looks like @Gramma has now taken his place at the top, where he belongs. Congrats
POOL Discussion Thread
Hey everyone, just wanted to say I really enjoy this website and especially playing against you all.
I never really went deep into poker before (not further than watching a WSOP tournament on television really), but I decided to give it a go these past couple of months, with some reading and studying on the side as well. Still havenāt played any real poker (for $), but if I ever decide to do it, all the practice I got will definitely come in handy.
Iām still trying to figure each and every one of you out, like what play style are you using or any clues I should be aware of for each hand, but itās quite the learning curve, as some of you seem to be pretty good at this game lol. And then there are the leaks in my game, which definitely donāt help.
Last, but not least - Gramma, every once in a while Iām like āha, I got you with this monster handā and then you proceed to destroy meā¦
Hi @blndr,
Welcome! Glad you are liking the site! It is great practice and a fun way to play a lot of hands. Feel free to post in the forums anytime you have questions or comments.
TOP TOP on the leaderboards, Jamie Gold style.
@blndr - I am having fun battling as well. It is fun playing against all the different styles that people have here. Nice flop on that JJ4 board! Unfortunately for you, I didnāt have much. That 843 board was just a cooler - not sure what else you could have done with top two pair and a bunch of draws out there.
Good game! Looking forward to another soon!
Yo gang I am GARBAGE. Just saying whatās on everyoneās mind
When I started here, I was so god awful it was almost not funny. Youāll figure out how to adjust. So donāt give up, this is a cool tool to learn. I went way down in the hole at first, took a few matches to figure out how to adjust and start winning.
Can anyone confirm if the winrate number (bb/100) is that out of 100 hands, or out of 100 big blinds? Is there a maximum this number can be?
@Vexxus - BB/100 is how many big blinds you won for every 100 hands that you played. In theory, there is no maximum that this number can be. It is helpful for determining how profitable you are at a given game.
, KINGS COURT 6-max⦠SEAT OPEN! Anyone else game?! @rayofhope @Kwickfish @Skid @SingularThey @Vexxus @bootsmollie @blndr
Trying to get my rating up, not down lol
Question: all the hands in a match get check/folded as soon as I donāt reply my opponentās action on even one hand, right? Is there a way to change this to only check/fold if the playerās been completely inactive in the past two days? Just wondering because I was busy and didnāt get to cycle through all my hands in timeā¦
@RayCarmelo we started out with it configured like that, unfortunately what ended up happening is some players would just leave the match and it would take 2 days between every action⦠like check (2 days wait) check (2 days wait) check etc. This frustrated a lot of players who didnāt understand what was happening so now if you timeout it folds out all your hands.
(Effective next Kings Court match) increased hands and timeout on the Kings Court 6max game to 2500 hands and 4 days timeout to minimize variance and allow for deeper reflection when needed.
Gramma owns me so much
We are all owned by Gramma on this blessed day
