Pacific Poker network and rankings....
Prolly leave this to admin to answer, but i suspect it is a case of Pacific don't allow a data feed by any external organsiations. U will notice that OPR does not include them although this could be wrong as sharkscope does.

Good hands at micro mtts 10-15bb
Agree with ur comment gj. Was not meaning that style of play at the table is the only dynamic - certainly stack sizes, position, etc all make a huge difference to the decision. It comes down to picking ur spots. Additionally if I am going to shove a fairly wide hand I want to b the opener

Good hands at micro mtts 10-15bb
If u r first in I open shove with all these hands and depending on players behind and my image / table dynamic usually alot wider (if u have been quiet 4 a couple of orbits u can possibly get away with this far lighter (Note position dependant) (Ax, suited connectors, any 2 broadways, any pr but u want to have some showdown potential if u r called). The key is u want to put them to the decision - yes u will get get called by hands at times, yes you will b racing at times and yes there will b suckouts. But a good % of the time u will take it down preflop and if u r called and ur hand holds u ...

contest idea
If u opened it for all rebuys up to $3 u MIGHT get a winner. Whilst I am sure there r players that have won these multiple times I doubt it has ever happened with them winning 1 on each site on the same day ever (same week no doubt has happened). U only need to look at the $5 and $10 Daily Doubles on FTP - how often have the jackpots went off for winning both and they tend to have smaller fields than the $3rs. I agree that something like this would b great motivation, and if any1 pulls it off it would b a sick acheivement, but how many people will do this 4 a while and then drop out. It ...

Live tournaments Do's and Dont's
[QUOTE=DocHoliday;6211576]Be careful not to act out of turn. If you check or fold out of turn, it's not that big of a deal, but you can still give off information that can help other players, so try to avoid it... If you put your chips in before its your turn to act, the usual rule is they remain in the pot. So if you make a call out of the turn, and then someone raises who was to act before you, chips will stay in. You can call a raise, but if you do not want to, what you have already put in, remains in the pot. Can be quite important on some occasions, esp. when blinds get bigger, so do pay ...

calling here stoopid???
Unless u have a read on this guy (was he in the habit of just flatting raises or was he the aggressor in earlier hands when he had trash - if he is playing this hand differently perhaps that may give an indication of strength) - Ship it and cross ur fingers (sorry that u ran into a big hand - GG) - even if he has trash here he is likely calling - yes ur shove represents 1/4 of his stack but with the other players in there the pot is substantial (around $42K if u shove when it gets back to him) - he has to then call an additional $23K odd if he wants to stay in BUT there are no additional ...

Now I know how to play Rush Poker (FTP)
OK - I give up posting the link - there is a video Star trek, Beam me up Hottie - was entertaining. It was in the asscoated videos of the OP. No I am NOT a Trekkie Personally I thought his comment about his wife stuck outside in the rain about the only redeeming thing in the first 8 minute vid although some of the hands were definately out there. By the way liked the Bot Video Bunny

As the first reply said - 8 minutes I won't get back. The only half funny thing was him talking about how his wife was pissed about being locked out in the rain. However there was something salvagable in the associated utube posts and NO I am definately not a Trekkie....

Hand in super donkament
I think if u believe she is a calling station then instead of check / flatting the flop check/raise - yes it is a relatively dry board and does turn ur hand over effectively (although she may assume just the ace rather than 2 pair) but fml u have not made her pay 4 the draws here. The Big Blind is also in the hand (and led out on the flop ffs) - here u r giving him a chance to outdraw u as well and u r out of position - u need to play this fast imo - by fast I am suggesting a check raise - (definately no issue w ur check - but check call oop I don't like) - sure there will b lots who flame ...

Prahlad Friedman accuses ZeeJustin, Isaac Haxton of sharing accounts, MA
I never understood why the guy who was eventually found to have not put it out - just did not say at the time "Hey guys, sorry it may be me". tbf though perhaps an honest mistake on his part - he may have thought he had I mean how stupid does he think security r - it was always going to come out. I don't undertsand why they did not check the camera immediately- could have even reviewed it whilst play was continuing - note who takes the pot down and take / award the chips to the appropriate parties. Although the antes were large at that stage the missing of 1 from the pot whilst it was ...

Is this a bad shove on turn? Does this get through the other 99.9% of the time?
If u think he is a donk / calling station then don't push w a hand that has questionable showdown value in the first place. With ur read I think it is a fold ... even though u have said u have been tight do u believe he sees u that way - have u had history. U may have been tight against his BB but were there other hands against others that were shown down that may have affected ur image. I look at the hand history and the turn shove smells of bluff to even my donkey senses (yes I am a donkey). Think about it from his perspective. U will see that he can't put u on anything other than a scared ...

Should the 17 year old who came 6th in sundays 5milly special keep the money?
Not going to comment on this issue as such but The rake from this tourney alone earned Stars over $946K. Do u really think they r going to jeopardise their future and reputation on one player who has been outed as underage and prior to this had next to no $s or volume. Guess who the biggest winner of the SM was Definately a sick accomplishment by this kid (whether he keeps the $s or not), but it is pretty awful for public perception / regulation and legalisation aspects.

Can you make a deal HU for a package?
Was the advice given for an ANZPT event in Sydney last year and I am aware of some other cases where u could arrange other options such as transfer the 2nd package to an alternative event or nominate another player (there are quite a few that fund their horses in the event this way). I think in the case of online satties u r correct - u get $T by default 4 the 2nd entry BUT I have heard there are options available (such as transfer of 2nd package). As u already know the primary package is not transferable. Suggest u just send an email to Stars to b sure what they will or won't allow. There is ...

Can you make a deal HU for a package?
If u already have a package and win another u can sell the 2nd one or transfer it to another player, but it must b a second package - first one is not transferable. U could look at a deal with him too but as one of the other posters said who has the $5K sitting in the account + do u want to trust a random to honour it. Additionally if the opponent does not have the package and wins he cannot transfer it to u unless he also already has an initial package. Saw a effed up situation where this happened at a live satty to this tourney last year.

NAPT LA! New to pocket fives someone please help. Thx greatly appreciated!
I have some friends who have ended up in a similar situation. If it is the 1st seat u can't sell it to any1....but they may allow u to play at another affiliated event. I had friends hold over ANZPT seats as they were unable to attend and they qualified through pokerstars. In their case was seat only satellite so no accommodation etc involved. Naturally if there is a diff in buy-in between venues u may have to make that diff up. Suggest that you write them a nice email explaining ur situation. I know that they took a while to respond in my friends case but they did allow it. Obv will depend ...

Help! Anyone experiencing this?? Full Tilt poker
I had same problem - it varies - some times fine other times just drops out and freezes. me thinks the server is struggling with the increasing traffic. It seems to be a bigger problem with Rush tourneys Still not as bad as the problem I had earlier tonight - power went off with 14 players left of 3400 odd. Eventually got back in on my laptop (had a few issues - probably lost 2 orbits or so) just in time to see AA fly into the muck. was able to play the rest of the tourney out until I ran my AK into AA but at least I was able to finish before the battery died. Power came back on 2 hours ...

Attention Full Tilt Poker(FTP) users, advertisers, users, sponsors, and executives
Most security software looks for certain executable files. If you have the .exe for "skanky bot" on your computer (which may have somehow got on there when u were viewing the You-Tube or most likely went to their site) and they find this (possibly it loaded a tracking cookie or the like when u viewed) which they obviously have it is cut and dried. Think of it from their perspective - what r they supposed to do - turn up at ur house only to find u have deleted the program and evidence prior - how do they even know that they r even looking at the same setup. If they have found a trail that ...
