I came across this old thread and got quite the laugh from it.Of course the young guy would have more experience than the "old guy" hahaha"Do not feed the trolls" and its abbreviation DNFTT redirect here. For the Wikipedia essay, see "What is a troll?". For other uses see Troll (disambiguation).An Internet troll, or simply troll, is someone who posts messages on the Internet to get a reaction from other online users, or to cause problems"

We raise blinds every 20 min. During the early rounds, when it doesn't cost so much to see a flop, I'll play almost anything, 'specially if there's been no raise. 12 limpers makes for a pot worth trying for.Later on, when the blinds get bigger and there's going to be more people betting at it, I will play cards I can make nuts with: suited or non- connectors and small pockets, I try to get in cheaply. With big As & big pairs, I call early and raise in late position.When I get lucky and hit flops, I get a lot of action, as long as I explain it to them: "Okay, I raise 300 - that's 3 X the bi

Yeah - I do understand that a tight fold gone wrong is way better than a loose play gone wrong and that more players makes for a wider range of hands, but doesn't that also mean you'll get a better payoff if you do hit a flop?I'm trying to get some new ideas - I have a $50 buy-in tourney with 70 players coming up Sunday and I'd like to win it. It isn't huge bucks, but it's not pocket change.My usual style is to get all the money in and hope that I have the best hand after it's over.

Thanks for your insight. It isn't my table, so I haven't any say over how many people show up to play.I dunno the circumstances of Phil's hand, but there could be a lot more than one out.What is a joke account?

Some background. I have been playing poker for over 50 years, with a 10 yr layoff that ended last Feb. We used to play Dealer’s Choice.I did have a couple months 5 years ago playing Limit Hold’em for tokens on Pogo – my only online experience. I did well at that.I am retired due to health and, last Feb, I met some people and now play in a weekly tourney with re-buys. I have been playing no limit hold’em for only 9 months.The group I play with are a bunch of guys having Poker Night Out – lots of refreshments. There are sometimes 12 of us at the table. They have a range of playing styles – wild

two people were left in after the river, after the betting, the caller laid down a pair of queens. the callee then showed one card which was an ace that paired with the board and mucked his other card. after much argument he stated the other card was a jack that also paired the board. IS THIS KOSHER?His contention was that he showed enough to beat the Qs and didn't have to show his other card.

Hmmm - I guess there are no actual poker players here - just a buncha trolls and wussies.I have been wasting my time . You guys have a nice life whacking each other off. byeeee

"So, who are you really?"That was such an existential question I had to give it profound thought before answering. There are so many answers.One one level I am an Ol' Fart tryinta get a game going. To that end and to get the attention of the web spiders, I have started a new post: www.fullcontactpoker.com/poker-forum/index.php?showtopic=120734On another level, I guess I am an internet person. If you cared to, you could search my name and find out stuff.And, on another totally different level, I have a Secret Identity but I always use my powers for good.

Here's a test question: Have you ever folded AA before the flop in hold'em?

I have a joke or two... heard this one?Two guys adrift for weeks on a life raft in the South Pacific have run out of water, no food... they're perishing. Guy in the front of the boat looks over the side - there's a bottle and he snags it out, opens it.Out pops a genii, who heaves a huge sigh and announces: Centuries in there I have been. Giving you one wish only, I am and be quick about it 'cause I'm outta here after that.Guy in the back of the boat says: I want all the beer in the world!POOF - the whole ocean turns to beer and the genii disappears.Front guys says: Smooth, Einstein - now we go

My goodness you guys are a buncha sharp cookies, aintchya? Ever cut yourselves?I guess I gotta put up with a certain amount of fluff kanoodle to keep my post on the first page here. Do any of you buckaroos actually play poker or do you just hang out here because the moderators are lax in removing off-topic posts?

Greetings.I found this forum by Googling poker kamloops, so I hope I'm at the right place.I'm a retired old guy looking to kill a couple or more afternoons a week. I can get to almost everywhere in the Shuswap area of BC.Does anybody have an afternoon game going or want to start one?
