Sites are fishier!!!

Postby AlexMR » Thu May 19, 2005 3:29 pm

Is it me or most poker sites have become fish tank in the last few weeks!!!??


I am working on party clearing the new bonus and was at bodog, and Absolute.... and all of this sites are FISHIER than ever!! Party LAGs are not even noticeable. It´s all fish or rock - weaktight.


Any ideas why or is it a wrong appreciation?


Comments, ideas....

College just let out, there are a bunch of kids in sunglasses with their baseball caps turned backwards glaring at the computer.

I played against the very worst player I have ever seen the other day, at the $50 Prima tables. He would minraise preflop about every third hand, with stuff like J8o. And then after he minraised, he would minbet most of the time, but then would tend to call almost anything afterward. He called all-in with nothing twice while I was watching. I couldn't get a hand against him, and in fact ended up losing a whole buy-in at that table. :( :( :(

I don't know about the sites being fishier, but it seems as though my play has gotten fishier in the last week or two :)

well,

I have been clearing the pokeracenow bonus at party. I deposited 450 and I am cashing out 690. Less than 48 hours. About 10 hours at the tables 2-3 tabling. Havent looked at PT but I know it is great winning with about 1100 hands.

The same at Bodog. I only deposited 65 last saturday, I cashed out 280 on wednesday. It´s been a little luck but mostly awful calls and people all in with TPTK and TP crap kicker like...uhm 5 clubs!

I also took three bad beats for more than $30 each. Small full house lost to bigger one. I guess you can lose a couple buy ins with those hands.... :oops:


I think it could be because of the WSOP and all the advertising on the travel channel and ESPN. We should donate a little to make them keep the commercials the whole year!!! :wink:

Kent, I was a t two tables with the same guy (or his twin, identical DNA brother) and also couldnt get a hand against him. I saw the guy lose 5buy ins in about 30minutes. He just couldnt stop calling. it even hurt me. He was complaining of his bad luck...

I think we are seeing more just more new players, hence fishier ones. Over here in London you cannot move for poker adverts, especially Party, Empire, UB and Poker Stars. They are advertising on buses, cabs, massive bill boards and at Premiership Football games now. If all this expenditure isn't bringing in more new players god knows what will. I think we are not far away from seeing 100 000 players on Party, and they surely cannot all know what they are doing?

I think the skill now is in spotting who is smart, who is stupid and playing accordingly.

I've been too busy having my nuts handed to me (details on the blog).

Every hand beaten by one hand better. If I was dealt QQ, someone was sure to have KK. If I got KK, I ran into AA. Two tabling at Stars, I ran into AA 5 times in 15 minutes. Each time, I had no worse than JJ, and twice I flopped a set, only to have an ace hit the turn or river.

I had AQ, someone had AK.

I shut it down for a few days so I wouldn't piss my roll away.

Ah, back to the grind next week.
