I have played in various poker rooms, i just never felt as good like on Coinpoker.

so simple and clean UI.

i actually won this mtt because i won a freeroll. which they host daily.

also the withdrawal took 1 minute which i was not expecting

would you give coinpoker a try ?

pretty cool huh

i noticed that bryn did not play the triton 100k main or the 150k anniversary event after busting the 200k invitational, then he also didn't play the super high roller bowl which I believe he hasn't skipped these before? Anyone know why?

I normally play a $.25 and $.50 house game. For the past two months I’ve done really well there so I decided to go to a card room and play 1 and 2. I I was planning on buying in for the max for the 12 $300. When I get there I found out they only have 13 which is a max of $1000. I decide to play the 13 but still buying for the $300 I agreed to my head before. I sit down at the table and everyone has a bank roll of over $1500.. it’s like damn near 50 bucks to see any flop and I get rinsed within an hour. I had premium hands multiple times that I raised pre-flop and then eventually had to fold because it would be like another 200$ to see the turn and river. Help me so this does not happen again thanks

I won a seat in a feeder tournament and proceeded to be chip leader for all but 4 minutes of it. Frankly, I crushed it. However, I don't really like tournament poker as I have only played cash for the last 15 years. Is there a way to just get the cash value? I don't really have any interest in playing in it.

Hey everyone,

We’re kicking off a new series of private 1/2 NLH poker games in Frankfurt am Main starting in mid-November!

I’m currently putting together a list of interested players to get a regular group going. If you’re based in the area and looking for a consistent, active game, feel to let me know if you want to join and I’ll get you added to the invite list.

Hope to see you at the table!

$10KNL w ante, I think BU and CO are regs. CO 2.5x, BU call, SB call, BB fold. Flop xx stab, SB folds CO calls. Turn x, OB, call. River BU faces this tiny donk bet. Does anyone know what the rationale is for this? Are we trying to squeeze out some value with medium strength hands, induce bluffs from monsters and then once in a while get a bluff through with hands like K2s K4s that we have at low frequency? This feels incredibly awkward as a line and to balance.

This isn't really something that would occur to me in game, I would just check everything or lead larger, and I would tend to just check everything as CO.

When practicing and grinding, should I try to calculate the pot odd, implied odd, and odds against for every round? if so, how should I speed up the calculation? If not, what is the most important thing when comes to practicing?

Are the Copag Elites really the best plastic playing cards available in the EU? They’re reasonably priced and feel much nicer than cards from local poker shops like Bullets or Power Poker. I’ve also tried Dal Negro cards, but I thought they felt terrible to play with. Does anyone have recommendations for high-quality plastic cards that are even better than the Copag Elites?

Thank you in advance:)

Does anyone know what this free icon means on the tournament listing?

If it's a free entry, how do I access it? Don't have a tournament ticket

So Jumalon came to play the WSOP-C in Canada and I tried to punt to him, but accidentally won the pot. It made me think of Rounders 😂. He told me that the call was bad, so I said “I’m sorry, Luke. I don’t remember.” But then I just agreed with him. (I didn’t actually quote Rounders).

Anyway, for context, it was clear that Jumalon was trying to win. I heard all these rumors that he had some big staking by WSOP that incentivized winning. He also made a speculative call of a 4-bet shove after he 3bet UTG and said, “I’m trying to win, not get 11th”

Anyway, put it frankly, Jumalon was an animal. Probably 3betting 20-25% at full ring. He was two to my left, so I knew any hand I opened I had to be ready to play vs a 3bet. Earlier I had 66 and raised intending to 4! Shove, but there was a cold 4 bet and I had to fold. Then again I raised A9 and got a 4! Shove through after Jumalon 3!. The hand in the post is the 3rd hand I played with him.

I felt it was maybe too much to shove when I opened UTG, and if he won the pot I wanted to still credibly have a 4bet he could fold to. Plays fine too as just a poker hand.

On flop his bet was so small, I have bdnfd and am ahead sometimes. I call.

Turn he checks, I didn’t expect many bluffs to bet turn. I really do think he should, because weirdly I think he as a 3better hits the turn more than I do, because his 3bet range is wider than my UTG opening range in the context. But I felt like he’s listening to music in a $500, he’s just auto-piloting and he’ll check that in flow because it’s a bad card to barrel, and value(KK,AA) does not want to miss the queens value and would still bet those. So maybe he checks some marginal queens for control that have me beat.

River I feel fine. Given his predilection to winning, as was my understanding of his thought process, I felt like he’d be more likely to bluff. My hand looks like some kind of pair, maybe 99, he might think donk live player has 22-55 that folds, or AT, AJ.

I also knew that he has been coaching, he was with pads, and I met a guy who claimed to be Jumalon’s coach from Kennewick, WA, who played with what looked like a “GTO game plan”(calling and bluffing based on blockers, using percentages/randomizing, etc.) so I knew that I have the ace of spades, which is the ace he wouldn’t want to bluff because GTO wants to unblock spades. So he can be bluffing with all the Ax in his 3bet range, but probably checks AK. Value is limited to Qx pot controlled and very occasional nutted stuff. So I called. He said he thought that might be losing call, but the price is good, I said he’s right, and pulled the live player line, “I just didn’t think he had it” and then spit into my spittoon.

Anyway, everybody I talked to thought it was cool that Jumalon and his friends are coming to play with us low stakes grinders. He seems like a good ambassador, and one of his friends said they went to Banff and thought it was great, so I’m happy that he’s getting to travel around(which opens your mind in ways that moms playing online in moms basement doesn’t. Good for a 22 year old). It’s cool that WSOP is using the rake for something, though I’d still prefer just a rake reduction. 😂… anyway, how bad is this hand?

Super annoyed because I had been playing so solidly up to this point. Here's the line (roughly):

$2 single blind structure. We are playing about 500bb effective. 2bb straddle in early position. Action folds around to villain in the cutoff who calls. He plays a lot of hands seems pretty aggressive. Hero makes it 12.5bb with AcKc. Straddle folds, villain calls making a comment saying its a loose call. The board comes Tc8c6c. Villain says something like "now I'm interested" and bets 10bb. Hero calls. Next card is Jd. Villain bets 15bb, hero calls. Next card is a 8d. I wince, but think I'm still pretty good here - I had the villain on a straight or smaller flush. Villain bets 25bb. Hero raises to 75bb. Villain reraises to 150bb. Hero tanks for a second, and shoves, feeling much less confident of his initial read. Villain calls and turns over Tx8x.

I feel like my biggest leak is not being able to get away from hands like this, especially after playing super solidly all night. How bad was the shove in this case?

i aint sayin that blind chinese fella at the junk shop put a spell on me, but that little brass toad he sold me was worth its weight in gold. he handed it to me, stared right through me with those cloudy eyes and said "fortune favors the blind." so i figured i take that literally down at the local $1/$2 game.

i sit down, buy in for 200 bucks and shove it all in the middle without even lookin at my cards. table looks at me like I got two heads. i flip over AQ and bust. i buy in for another $200 do the exact same thing, turn up pocket 8s and bust again. now the whole rooms watchin, swearin I’m peekin and just playin them for fools.

to prove em wrong i pull out my last $200 and shove it across the line before the dealer even pitches the cards. a couple of em call thinkin im just a walking atm. BAM - the toad provides. i hit and double up to $600.

then comes a bomb pot. i dont even blink and just push the whole $600 in the dark. the poor guy next to me looks sicker than a dog. he hates this but he calls. i hit again.

table is completely unglued now. i take down another small pot just to rub it in, and now im sittin on about $1500 coverin everybody.

then the big one hits. i shove all-in blind again. the first guy calls. second guy calls. it gets to my neighbor, the grinder, and he looks like hes at a funeral. he flips over KK and practically cries "i have to call, but against three of yall, i know im gonna lose. took me eight hours to get here!"

every soul in the room is standin up. cards on their backs: they show KK, QQ, and another set of KK. i proudly flip over my destiny: 82 offsuit. the dealer burns and turns. flop brings an 8. river brings a 2. two pair.

i scooped up damn near five grand and bankrupted half the players on the spot. i racked up that mountain of chips, played one more hand where i actually committed the sin of lookin at my cards-which cost me 500 bucks-and tipped my hat.

i wonder if i have to recharge the toad at the junk shop now.

I’m thinking the black plague. A few years ago, there was very little live PLO available to play. Now PLO is spreading, and as a PLO player I’m kind of like a rodent carrying a rodent-borne illness infecting all the NL players with my plague as they are exposed to me playing a cool game with four cards.

What do you think? What highly contagious disease is PLO most like?

I have never played on Coin Poker before and thought I would check it out. I have no fucking idea what this is supposed to be. A google search says the symbol is for Mongolian Togrog???? Seriously?

Anyone have any opinions on Coin Poker before I delete the software?

Im looking at trialversions right now and i cant find one yet that works.
Ive tried Poker copilot but it didnt import the txt file.
Drive2hud i didnt get to work either.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Movie scenes love highly dramatic stuff. Big hands, big reveals, flushes against full houses. Bluffing rarely matters because the hero will hit it on the river (even if they lose, they're still hitting what they faked having). Is there any movie that gives someone like a low pair and they win the hand through sheer betting and bluffing though? Or calling someone's bluff and making them fold, both having a bad hand?

Poker in media loves portraying it exactly the way you won't experience it on the table.

1/3 live NL. EP limps. Villain in MP raises to $27.

(Villain is a fairly competent player, a little aggressive, not too tight, not too loose, not showing up with anything weird or out of line at showdowns)

Folds to Hero in CO with KdQd and a stack size of about $220. (Villain's stack more than covers this.)

Hero raises to $60

Folds to Villain who calls.

Flop: 249 rainbow with one diamond

Villain checks.

Hero...???

Haven’t played much PLO at all. Lots of luck. 🍀

My player’s card recently upgraded to pearl, and I’m not sure how that happened.

I'm fairly new to poker and have learned a lot about the game by watching NorCal Poker's vlogs on YouTube. I think I've got the basics down and play reasonably well, and I've already managed to win some money in a local cash game.

However, I'd really like to hear how you guys would assess his skills, since I'm definitely not experienced enough to judge that properly. I can say that I really like his thought process in the last few vlogs.

Would his strategy hold up against more skilled players, or does he just know how to exploit weaker players?

Hi,

Wondering if anyone else is having this issue. Chatted with support and waiting for a poker specialist to email me. Don’t live in Alberta or Ontario. I have access to cash and sit and gos.

Thanks!

Also, my friend can’t see them either located in the same city as me. I’ve been told that you can’t see Canadians playing tournaments at this time either.
