Re:being a nit pt. 2- stars 1k
Hes not limping w KK in a multi way pot , so his range is def 44,k4s,k3s,k3o,k4o,56s,56o which your only behind 44. based on that and who the player was its an easy call his AI.

Re:Sit & Go - Who stops playing SnG's on Friday nights and Saturdays?
You know I noticed i would lose with the best hand more often than other times on the weekend. It could get pretty frustrating at times. However the games are still good based on the type of players playing. You can offset the bad beats by possibly increasing your volume. That being said I still prefer to play through the week with the regulars that i usually have notes on and know there style, tougher games but a lil more straight forward So in conclusion I agree with the original poster (although I think 40 games is not enough to make a fair assesment) and I also agree with the others that ...

Re(5): jrsygmblr ows me $250
I could see transfering 10,20 maybe 30 dollars, but $ 250 a lil over the top thats more than ive deposited online total in 3 years. theres too many dishonest people in the world, besides did you think a gambler is capable of lying, probably. Good Luck with the collection

On Sunday June 24 held a $3 + rebuy satellite tourney to the newly recognized as a major tourney, the Absolute Poker 150k gauranteed for (Sat. June 30). Pocketfives agreed to add 25 seats at 200 +16 to the prizepool. A situation was created because the (June 30) tourney was the $500 + 30 version of the Absolute 150k. The prizepool from the players plus the money (seats) from p5'a only totaled like 7 seats (at $530), players were unsure how things would work out. Absolute Poker and Pocketfives came together and awarded the 25 seats for a total of 30 P5ers in the running for a 41k top prize in ...

Re(2): Great News for Yesterday's Absolute Satellite Blowout Winners
Man like i said some where on this page Ive been with Absolute a long time, please please, please allow the RESIZABLE TABLES, it would it allow the players more convience in playing multable tables . The current table size actually discourages me from playing more games at once, (which means less money for the site , rake, tourney fee etc) Oh and Turbo SNG's takes forever 10 min blinds other than than that Love, Peace, and Hair Grease

Re(2): Great News for Yesterday's Absolute Satellite Blowout Winners
Yes this is very generous of Absoulute. They were my first online poker site and the first thing i noticed was the excellent customer service. I finished 16th and there was some confusion because of the difference in the buy-in nobody was sure what the outcome would be.So Again thanks to Absoulte for steppin up. Thanks again P5's for a great place for us poker fans,junkies,students,teachers etc. to mingle work on our game, get better and of course win money. Smokin Purple
