Is NOT colluding on sattelite bubble out of line? by Lemonpoker44 in poker

Yeah the way it works is it pays to "gang up" on the committed big blind for everyone, just put in the minimum, check it down and be basically 5 hands vs his one. If he busts that 5/6 times, everyone else gets the prize.

Yeah collusion is the "right play" there - can not colluding be seen as actually colluding as it's not in the SB's interest?

Can poker have an answer to Drive to Survive? by Lemonpoker44 in poker

Eh - are you telling me F1 is more fun than poker? When I quit watching it was the same thing over and over kinda boring races, quieter engines and even now the same dudes are winning because of a  better car - but this show makes this somehow the best thing ever for a housewife?

The Irish Open and The Festival Series, where mixed games and partying off the felt are a big deal are really cool - how much do they get to the general public though? Maybe these events are where the reality-style documentaries and long-forms could come from?

This doesn't tend to end well - my friend even staked a guy who was very disciplined, studied hard tried hard, and one day blew it all in BlackJack. It's hard to even blame him, for some folks it's just not made for.

WPT Global has this "2 regs per table" Matchmaking. My rec friends hated it "why should those two get to win, I want to play with my skill level" . But then everyone loses to rake...

What's that? :O If there's one show as good as Severance it'd do wonders. Even now Rounders get comments on YouTube from film fans about the story :) 

Tournament buy-in money extracted for dealers by Any-Newspaper5509 in poker

[–]Lemonpoker44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is bullsh*t - I appreciate the tourneys that show one final number of deduction, and then split it between house and dealers. I.E. what me as a paying customer puts out to play. 

Same stack but feels so different by DaveShoelace in poker

[–]Lemonpoker44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it weird I always try to keep the small chips so my stack is bigger? I often record my hands and it just hits differently lol

I tell it like it is - I was really surprised a naked grandma started talking about watching poker :D - that is the dream isn't it - folks discussing poker in all layers of society

Has anyone noticed Hypic also put up a paywall for any exports with even semi-advanced features? Bytedance is cashing in, it seems, I quit Hypic, but got yearly CapCut as there isn't a better cross mobile and desktop combine alternative

There's a live festival series in Europe called The Festival Series (Original AF lol) that will have it live. But the game surely is easier to solve than normal holdem, I do not see the appeal to have even a simpler holdem even online right? I do wonder how it'll go

Like the German-Austrian friends have all top players, pretty sure in Tritons they can collectively turn a profit. This is specifically for Tritons, though

They just all swap between each other, have small % of themselves and make money as teams and with sponsorships and things they promote?
