carbon poker multis
I got up and decided I would make it a day and play several tourneys, but it will not load when I go to tourneys. Cash game and sitngos is working but not the tourneys. Wondering if it is something on my end or its not working for anyone. Oh and this is all on Carbon, might be important to tell u that info. Any responses would be appreciated.

Question about a live ruling..
The rule is the hand is live until dealer scoops the cards into the muck pile. Now i do agree with others that different casinos have there own rules and yes my casino it seems to be different with each floor manager lol. The rule though is that if not touched by dealer then they are still live.

have 14 blinds vs an all in on dealer chip when all fold to him
Yeah i was going for the win and i had been playing pretty tight but opening when i came into the pot, whereas he limped alot and folded if raised preflop. He was always trying to get in cheap. Needless to say i called and he had kk oh well everyone catches a hand sometimes lol. Hard not to be result oriented but i figured i made the right call.

have 14 blinds vs an all in on dealer chip when all fold to him
Villian has played pretty decent, not opening much or raisin much pre, but alot of limps and folds. He has pushed last two times previously also showin A9 and K10. So this is his 3rd consecutive push. The tourney is a 1 dolla rebuy 10 min levels. Sorry for leavin this info out and blinds were 800/1600 i believe and i had 24000 and he had 33000 i believe

Interesting Hand From 1-2 NL
Seeing you saw his cards can play with your mind. If you didnt see his cards lets say what do u do on flop' I raise his bet of 30 on flop to 75 to 100 because of the wet board like you said. Now if he calls i agree with all on turn i push, but i never said im a winning player lol. Thats just my point and line i take.

Did i make a good chop?
Was this at firelake or riverwind' I used to play the ones at riverwind all the time and it gets really annoying because they always want to pay people at the final table and always want to chope sometimes even up to 6 people when 3 or 4 are originally supposed to get paid. The blinds do make it like a turbo though when blinds get high but im down for a chop heads up or 3 way if money right. You did good hear so i would be happy

Tournaments with no Antes
I play alot of these here in oklahoma and i agree you have to learn the shove fold strategy. I personally shove fold when i get to 10 bbs and most times i just sit back and watch all the horrible play the whole tourney till i get a hand and push on someone i know will call with junk. For example if i have JJ i want to take it down pre and will push and will get called by horrible hands like qj or kq and worse. Of course sometimes it doesnt work out, but get it in best and if beat hit the cash games up and make your money back. GL at the tables

Backing and Staking Discussion
I have someone offering to back me in a $550 dollar tournament. He wanted 70% for him and 30% for me which i said no. I got him up to 60-40. He said that if i do not cash i will owe him nothing. So i think 60- 40 is not bad deal right' lol or can i get more haha. I have never been backed nor has he backed anyone. I also want to know if i should get in writing probably' We just know each other from the casino and he has seen me cash often in the smaller 100 dolla tourneys and i just dont feel comfortable paying 550 so he offered. all responses will be appreciated.

Official Bankroll Management Thread
i appreciate the replys and i agree that i need to give the booze up when playin. I dont expect to build a bankroll right off the bat with 20 but its a start. I want to get back to grindin the very low stakes cause my tourney buy ins are usually never above 5 dolla. So the 25 cent 90 man sitngos and the one dolla is what im going to play. Is it sad that im happy that i just spent almost 4 hrs in a 25 cent tourney and won it for 6.23 lol but its a nice way to start off.

Official Bankroll Management Thread
Anyone have any suggestions what to play on stars with 20 bucks' i figured the 25 cent sitngos and the occasional one dolla. Basically i know that i just need to play something different and take the game seriously again. Its been awhile and i will say i have never been a winning player but i do know that i can be. I like to drink and play poker and know that is not a good combo because it makes me to where i am trying to make a hero bluff or hero call and then im out of the tourney so anyway any ideas are welcome and thx for all

full tilt making fraudelent charges to your account??
k long story short my sisters boyfriend is trying to tell my sister that fulltilt is making false charges. i dont play on there often so dont know but have never had site make multiple false charges. she says it was multiple 10 dolla charges and sometimes the same night. msa was the company that cashed these and f somethin acount. i told her most sites 10 dolla is the minimum u can deposit at a time and he probably did that cause she says there is dates where there is like 6 at a time in one night of 10 dolla charges lol so let me know people if im right lol

this is my biggest leak!!!! just bad play i guess how do i get away from these hands?
I will be honest tourney just started so had no idea. In these micro stakes tourneys hard to put them on much,but if i had to try i though A10,AJ, AQ,AK or maybe 88 through qq with qq being very top hand cause most with kk or aa overbet pre makin it obvious in these tourneys lol but this is my leak
