Feedback about the Lock Poker move to the Revolution Network
Thanks. Odd. 30r was 100/200/0, 150/300/20 and then 200/400 and 300/600. Hopefully things will be more consistent tomorrow when the full schedule comes out.

Slow playing top pair top kicker...
General advice -- don't try to trap TPTK type hands on boards where a lot of turn/river cards will leave you guessing. Any K, Q, T, 9, 8, 7 all possibly improve your opponents range and make it more difficult to know where you are. On boards like that, focus on extracting value from Jx/Tx hands and draws.

Slow playing top pair top kicker...
Main thing -- fold river. You shouldn't often beat a single hand the villain has in this situation. Flop -- since villain only min bet flop, I'd probably raise flop to 250. You want to extract value from weaker Js, Tx hands and any 9x/8x hand that may be drawing. Turn call is fine. Not a huge fan of raising turn because better hands always reraise or call and worse hands usually fold.

Cheating and Rabbit-Cam hacking ocurring on Merge Network
How much do I need to pay to license the MergeMafia trademark as my username on Lock' Trolling aside, I respond because you're wrong and I'm hoping you'll someday realize that. If you think Merge is rigged in our favors, then surely the members of the Merge Mafia will lose on Revolution. Would you like to make a wager on that'

Revolution Network MTT Schedule
Lock was on the Cake Network, left to join the Merge Network and then created its own network. Doubt that's the issue, because it should let you keep it unless its currently in use on an existing cake skin. I'd probably just email support.

Correct, that's because Intertops is on the same network. Both Lock and Intertops are now skins on the Revolution Network.

If your screen name is in use on the pre-existing Cake Network, you'll have to change your Lock name. Perhaps you can change your Cake name and then keep your current Lock name.

wonder how much traffic people think merge will lose after Lock left ........
I wouldn't be surprised by a 20-25% drop. I also wouldn't be surprised if the drop was negligible. We'll have to wait a couple weeks and see how it all shakes out.

No. If you're planning to 5b/f, it's much better to flat pre or perhaps flat the 4b (but that depends on sizing).

I think some people will settle in on Lock only, others will leave Lock and go back to Merge and a good number will play both. Overall, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a 20-25% drop in Merge MTT traffic, but I don't think it will hit 40-50%. Overall, I don't love it since MTT prizepools on both sites will be smaller, liquidity will be reduced (especially in non peak times) for SNGs/Cash, and it means higher buyins + more tables for similar profits. However, a lot of people hated Merge, so at least it gives US players an alternative option.

You need to post the full HH. Bet sizing is really important here. I'm not folding AKs bvb, especially to someone who 4bets light. But the bet sizing is really important since you should either be setting up a 5b jam or at least giving villain a chance to 6b bluff.

Lock Poker purchase of the Cake Poker Network
no offense, but lol. If you didn't like Cake and their software, not sure why you would have been excited for this change since it was always based on Cake's software. I have heard that Cake upgraded their software at some point (I don't know when -- I havent played there in over a year) -- and that it's better than it was. The Lock cashier isn't changing and Lock reps have stated that the cashout times for Lock players should remain the same.

Another Lock Poker rant: Maybe
FWIW, Lock was on the Merge Network. The RNG was the Merge Network RNG. Lock has left and is now using the Cake software RNG. If you really think Merge was rigged, you may want to try your luck on the new Lock poker (now part of the Revolution network). I'll be 100% honest with you though, I've had 500-1000 game breakeven stretches/downswings, so a sample of only 237 tournaments seems a bit small. Poker can be brutal at times, I've had crazy things happen on every site I've played on. I have taken and given a lot bad beats in the mid/high stakes MTTs on Merge, but I haven't seen a systematic ...

Issues with Carbon support
The support for many Merge skins can be slow at times. It took me 6 weeks to get verified by Lock, 5-6 days on Carbon and 2-3 days on Hero. I would keep following up with Carbon support and hopefully you'll hear something soon.

Lock Poker purchase of the Cake Poker Network
We can agree to disagree about Merge, however, we should at least attempt to be honest. You have felt this way about other networks: / Yes -- the Cake Network is now the Revolution Network and has added the Lock skin. Traffic should increase quite a bit. It's the existing Cake Network + Lock skin (which left the Merge network). The Cake Network includes several skins including Cake, Intertops, Broadway Tables, etc. Your old account should still exist. You should be able to log in normally once you download the new software. PM Shane and/or email Lock support. Worked fine for me ...

It was automatic before the switch to Revolution. Their cashier isn't changing, so I would assume it is still automatic.
