Dratj 0 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I remember it was around december about 3 or 4 years ago when Pacific first started their nl tables. I would sit down at their 0.5/1 nl table buy in for $100 and people would be easy pickings. I could sit down with 100 bucks and up to 300 or 400 easy in a few hours. One time I even had just over 1K. It was similar to playing live games back then. Now, tables are full of better players and nits and really the most you can ever get up to is maybe 200 or 300 and very few people play extremely poorly. Those were the good old days when the fishing was good. PS. quadaces you -------, don't even bother replying with one of your smartass negative remarks.

CrazyJoe 0 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I played pacific when you could only 1-table and the HIGHEST game was 1/2 NL. I cleared a grand at that table in about 2 hours, then did the same thing a few days later. It was pretty damn sweet. I should've stayed there but i'm an idiot, I went for other bonuses cuz I thought all the sites would be like that. Link to post Share on other sites
Spence 0 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I think you're correct. There are few fewer fish. People are starting to value hands correctly I think is the biggest change.You can still sit down at a table and run your buy-in up to 4-8x, just have to mix up your play now, or go on a huge rush.

I went from 50 bucks to over 4k in one week, people were just giving away money. Stopped playing for a while cause my wife was getting on my case, regretted it though, they were juicy times.

IQCrash 1 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Agreed. I loved pacific back in the day. Too bad their software was garbage and Dise stole me away from them. Been a while since I've played on Dise too, Stars is the place to be (at least for me) now. Link to post Share on other sites

Now you can virtually open as many as you can handle. Link to post Share on other sites

BrandonPL 0 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I find it interesting that you picked pacific specifically. I started playing pacific in Jan '05 when I turned 'pro'. My first deposit in was $200 and I made a profit of $10K in Jan. Over the next three months I cleared out another $25K. Lately, I've still been making money, but I haven't had a big month like those all year (at least not on any internet site). I too have found the players have become overall slightly better at poker, but there are still fish everywhere. There is nothing better than sitting down in a 5 person $200 SNG, sharkscoping everyone, and finding every single person at the table has lost money and often some have lost 10-20K. I don't really think players have become THAT much better, I just think as a whole they have become slightly more experienced. To be more succesful today you need to take very detailed notes on how players play and use that to give you the big advantage back that we had two+ years ago. Link to post Share on other sites

No, seriously though, that quadaces guy is a prime candidate for being the president in the Douchbaggery oval ofice. He probably now is the doucehbaggery prsesident of FCP.
