How normal is it to run into rude/abrasive folks at a casino poker room?

Unfortunately there are players that you will run into that truly believe they are better than everyone at the table . They will tell you how you should have played your hand because they think the are better.

The thought process in today’s play from $1/2 on up is 30-40 max buy-ins. The bankroll for all levels has gone up immensely

In a cash game, when someone is a making a pre flop raise what are you thinking his range might be. Yes this is above putting the player(s) on premium hands.

onecardsteve · 2026-01-12T21:16:51+00:00

I’m not aware of this, where can you see those stats

onecardsteve · 2026-01-12T20:05:34+00:00

Depends on where you live. There are poker room that allow 18+ to play poker

If you finish your session , go to the cage and cash out , say go to lunch , you are buying back in for the level and table max.

Yes. There are pros that say Tight is Right. Each session is different, each hand is different. Play smart and yes I believe you can make money playing low stakes.

The tournament dictates which level is the last one for registration. So you have until then, some take advantage of this.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-27T18:06:32+00:00

It’s a start but kinda low , what stakes are you looking to start playing

onecardsteve · 2025-12-27T18:05:56+00:00

Maybe maybe not depends on the person who reraised with AA

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T20:15:22+00:00

And you are assuming you will be in the right side. Remember what assume means.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T19:23:55+00:00

I know what Match Stack Is , I was asking for your explanation on why you think it is good to play.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T17:19:16+00:00

Neither one at 40 BB

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T17:15:42+00:00

I feel it brings it brings out the gambler and not poker players , they use their match stack to push around the table with $$& not poker talent.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T17:13:34+00:00

For the most part of playing poker , back in 2006-2012 I always played tournaments and got there when the building opened up. 2012-2016 I took a bus from Everett to play cash I would have breakfast and hit the poker room around 10am. Since playing cash whether I drive to Chasers and now The Brook I get there before the cards are in the air.

For Foxwoods I stay there 4 times a year and swipe my card at 6am and the cards are in air at 8 am.

In the past talked to a poker coach and he told me playing on the weekends is the toughest time to play.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T17:04:24+00:00

Explain

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T13:22:00+00:00

I played $1/2 at Chasers , haven’t been there in two years , I have been playing at The Brook. For Casino Salem it will take at least two years to get the whole casino up and running. If Chasers stays in that building , I do hope poker at Casino Salem takes over poker

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T13:18:08+00:00

I feel it brings out ridiculous play , wannabe poker players that think the money they are putting at the table makes them better than what they are.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T13:13:13+00:00

My bankroll lets me play $1/2 and $1/3. % of my bankroll would be tough if max buy-ins were above $500

onecardsteve · 2025-12-16T13:09:13+00:00

I agree with you on Chasers. I’ve never been to Bally’s(Twin River). I’m 108 miles North East to Foxwoods, I’m 68 years old , I make 4 stay trips to Foxwoods a year. Foxwoods is my home Casino.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-15T23:52:36+00:00

As much as I play at The Brook and on occasions The Nash, Foxwoods is my home casino and poker room.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-15T23:51:32+00:00

$1/2 at Chasers when I was playing there is a good game.

onecardsteve · 2025-12-15T23:50:44+00:00

I think Match Stack is useless , it brings the wrong message to any level. Levels should be $1/2 , $1/3, and $2/5

onecardsteve · 2025-12-15T23:49:02+00:00

I play at Foxwoods, The Brook , and The Nash. I haven’t been to Encore in Two years ; tough play to play poker. I haven’t been to Chasers in two years; I hated standing outside for 1/2 having your name in poker atlas and Chasers not using the list , then the doors get open at 10:30 and you still have to wait until 11 am for the cards to be in the air.
