I only kept playing it because 2 threes came on the flop, with another ace as the river card

Well thats fair enough lol

Nickatilynx · 10-09-2005

Playing Ace/3 before the flop means that you probably have the 2nd to third best hand at yr table.

The chances are someone is already holding an ace with a better kicker , and there is the probability of someone already holding a pair.

The other two that stayed in the betting where holding aces but I got the win with 2 aces and 3 three's. this game doesn't suck

At this point it is you!! LOL You'll get better with practice and, as Nick said, read a book.

I highly suggest the following poker books. The links go to Amazon UK for easy use by you. There are books that are specific to online poker as well (that I didn't list) as it IS different than a real life game.

Doyle Brunson's Super System II or Doyle Brunsons original Super System - The original is considered the poker bible. It covers more games than just Hold Em though. The sequel (II) is much of the same but there is some more that was added. Either one is quite good.

Play Poker Like The Pros by Phil Hellmuth - the "poker brat" and former world champion has a pretty good book here.

Winners Guide To Texas Hold Em Poker by Ken Warren - more of a beginniners type of book that you might want to rerad before geting into other books.

I'll admit that it's fun, it just gets a bit... what's the word I'm looking for... boring, when it's 5 or 6 hands between wins, but then two come along - one after the other and it makes it interesting again.

5 or 6 hands between wins?

LOL

To win tournys , during my tight periods , I have gone 20 or 30 hands never saw a flop LOL

Hmmmm If you play like that you are playing rubbish cards (or the luckiest shit in Christendom LOL ) and a good tight aggresive player will be watching..................... and waiting.He will be able to make an very educated guess at what cards are in yr hand , and then...you are fucked lol

The real trick IMHO is changing it up.

Get the respect of people as a tight player first...then mix it up...surprise 'em

Means they can never put you on cards

or basically, I should just go with meds between hands? ;-)

TheEnforcer · 10-09-2005

Not a problem.

Not a bad book to start with. Not great but not horrible. I highly suggest getting one of the Super System books eventually though. It's considered the best by a whole lot of people.

Will do

Nickatilynx · 10-09-2005

I like marking out the newbs....

You know the chances are they will only go on an ace...so you wait...and wait..

Enough callers 6/7 or 7/8 or 8/9 suited is an interesting hand.

fucking Scandanavians play them all the time. In general if they are from there they scare the crap out of me.They will go on anything and keep betting at you.

The only thing you can do is wait , and wait and wait...lol

The best is waiting for someone , and you know they have a/k a/q a/j...cause of how they are betting and there past behaviour......

If the flop is none paint and you are holding...its lovely jubbly time cause they tend not to lay down there A/K ( I call it "pretty colours" syndrome)

The best ever is just sit there patiently seeing flops with middle pairs , and if no set , no bet.

If the set hits.......its "thank you jesus" time!!! LOL

But hang on...now I'm telling you the plot LOL

I'm registered and playing mate, just look for opranotrev on the playmoney tables lol

Trev · 10-09-2005

I've just had 2 aces beaten by a five and a four

Trev · 10-09-2005

You managed to get a new screen name yet Newton?

He lost all his play money

Newton · 10-09-2005

yeah i did lol first time trying to figure out what the fuck was going on, without reading any manuals lol so signed up for a new username and won all the money back .. this poker lark is a piece of piss

It doesn't suck does it.

TheEnforcer · 10-10-2005

The bad thing about play money is... that it's play money. A lot of people don't give a fuck and will play any two cards no matter what.

I've noticed the difference, few people were willing to take a 3 and a 9 all the way to the river card when playing for real money, but 90% or more are willing to do it with play money.

Newton · 10-10-2005

It may be play money but I treat it as though it were real, or it gives a false sense of security, and makes you play differently when for real.

Typically I don't bet over £1 and have a few small 'Toonie' wagers with young Nick .. thats the extent of betting for me.

Trev its a good game and now I understand it and see the odds with the cards it is much better. Still pissed at the whelp having 4 jacks and beating my full house aces over jacks .. still it was a good crack ..

I need to find a good game of cribbage for money
