problems focusing
i have been playing online for around three years now and i have enjoyed some moderate success in mtts over that time. but over that same time period i have played in several live tournaments in both las vegas and in florida. i have won two tourneys in vegas (both at the paris), finished third in another (at the imperial palace), and cashed in two others (one at fitzgerald's and another at the paris). I find that staying focused for four hours alone in my dining room online is very hard but when i play live it is not a problem in fact i stay very alert and focused while playing live. does ...

Full Tilt Won't Pay Me
i receive every check i request in 7-8 calander days. bottom line is this the UIGEA has forced the sites to use rogue 3rd party processors who are obviously stealing funds. we can all sit here and complain about the sites but i truely believe they are doing their best. they make way too much money in rakes and fees to drive us away over payouts which comes from prizepools not profits. the best solution is dont depend on online winning to live on use them for extras and vacations.

does it ever end?
i know i am far better than i was three years ago but the problem is not getting outplayed. i definitely do from time to time but the problem is playing really good tournament poker and getting beat by inferior plays on a regular basis.

does it ever end?
over the past three plus years i have played hundreds of tournaments and sit and gos on several sites. i have won around 6-8 mtts in total and have around maybe 20-40 final tables. but as time has passed and i have learned more about the game it seems that the more times i get my chips in with the best hand the more brutal beats i take. lately i've been temtpted to just fold pocket aces and kings because they rarely hold up in showdown situations. but i very rarely seem to come from behind in critical hands to even things out. please do not use this post to make jokes and beat your own ...

full tilt customer support
I have always read on pocket fives how great full tilt's customer support was. until recently u have never had the need to find out for myself. now that have, i must say that anyone who thinks full tilt has good customer service is full of crap. i have been trying to get a response from them for about six days now and cannot get so much as a kiss my butt from them. i requested a withdrawl on 4-23-08 and as of today have not received a penny nor an explaination as to why. their "7-10 business day" waiting period expired on monday so i am clueless as to what is going on with the ...

Anyone else see a problem with this???
he answered a question. that's not playing your opponent. flashing one of your hole cards aka d.b. gold is playing your opponent. this was total bs.

Johnny Chan's a jopke
first of all hold 'em isnt the only variety of poker. chan has won bracelets and i dare 100s of thousands in all of them so to say he's a terrible player is ludicrous. i think his choice of people to mentor, i.e. jamie gold, says all you need to know about his common sense however.

proof of multi-accounting
anyone who claims they played in a 1million tourney on ub is a complete fraud from the get go. lesson from my grandma years ago the one who boasts never has done it in the firstb place. the quiet man is the one with the accomplishments.

How did Stu Ungar Play?
i have an old issue of cardplayer where matusow and sexton both are quoted as saying that in tournaments unger would never play a hand until the antes went in. unless he had a/a or k/k of course. then they said he'd run roughshod over the tsable constantly stealing.

having trouble shifting gears in mtts
i am a tight player by nature and i have been consistent in getting deep in multis for several months. but once i get within three tables of cashing i seem to be getting beat by inferior hands consistently. often i am getting med p/p called down by crazy hands then getting outdrawn. is it because im not playing agressive enough pre-flop or what'
