statistics and the net

[varady5]

OH boy here is the ultimate debate....do you play the "percentage" game??? for ex::: aa b4 flop has a 87%chance of beating qq.....if so do you really think this is the way to view the strength of your hand???



I have a hard time playing in this perspective... especially online...its my opinion that you are 50/50 b4 flop with ANY two cards when it comes to online poker...but thats just me..

If you really think that way then lets play a little bit serious cash game. Name the game and the stake.

pmsl you really are way too funny!! Did you recently have a sense of humour transplant?? <---- these smilies are often used to turn what has been said into a joke!!

Btw i can assure you that the levels of play on this forum if you take the kind of attitude that yr presently displaying in yr posts onto the tables in a wass game yr likely to find yrself staring at the screen in disbelief at the ass whooping that someone has just layed down on you!!

I agree that the odds in online poker may seem different but rest assured that the odds are still the same online as in real life!! The thing with online poker is that there are so many more hands per hour dealt that you see more of the beats than you would in a live game!!
Poker is poker, nothing will change AA is still only 2 cards and can lose at anytime!!

OK...i never said i dont play by the odds i just dont look at it from the same perspective....and i never said i hadnt realized the fact that there more hands on the net than in real life...im just simply stating that you never know what kind of crap the "random number generator" will deal out.AND TY for backing me up on the 50/50 b4 the flop statement with the "aa can lose " statement...that was exactly what i was getting at... except you Pros seem to think i play with my head up my ass...so if i was dumb enough to ever give the scammers online my money i would love to play you...but i stopped letting the sites rip me off...THAT WAS THE SMARTEST PLAY I HAVE EVER MADE IN ONLINE POKER......now i like to play frs for the learning curve.... sounds funny eh...it has netted me quite a profit in brick and mortar play learning how to defend against donks by playing frs online....and i have made a little online too...when i lose it i dont really care...but i always learn when i play no matter what.

The problem with you firing off post after post is that the mods will immediately notice them and will not update yr status to active.. Active status needs to be earned and can take a couple of weeks for you to get that status. Nothing will happen over night, so if yr serious about poker then hang around here and post and soon enough you will get that status and be able to participate with us all

[varady5]

Man what is it with everyone thinking im only posting to get active status....of course that would be nice ... but geez cant a guy read and get some input in there too??.....Whats a guy gotta do to make you realize that i like to talk my ass off... i dont have much else to do...sitting at home injured from the job... so yah ive read a lot and posted a lot..... you would too if you were as bored as i .... btw this is the only forum i have ever had to constitute my posting... all i wanted was a few opinions and what did i get SCRUTINIZED......WELL THANKS FOR MAKING ME FEEL WELCOME... THIS HOW YOU TREAT ALL NEWBIES???? AT LEAST IM NOT COPY AND PASTING 10 OF THE SAME POSTS LIKE SOME I SEE... I ACTUALLY HAVE SOME LITERATE TALENT AND CAN WRITE MY OWN THOUGHTS.i HOPE THE MODERATORS SEE THIS ...THIS COULD BE A COMPELLING REASON NOT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS FORUM..... YOU COULD LEARN A LOT FROM SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN A POKER DEALER FOR A LOOOOOOONNNNGGG TIME.. I HAVE SEEN A MILLION HANDS PLUS ....MORE PEOPLE THAN THAT.....AND BEEN AROUND THE GAME FOR AT LEAST TWENTY YEARS....EVEN PAID MY WAY THROUGH SCHOOL PLAYING/DEALING POKER...I HAVE 3 COLLEGE DEGREES FROM REPUTABLE UNIVERSITIES AND WILL DAMNED IF I WILL CONTINUE TO BE MADE TO FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT OR INTELLECTUALLY CHALLENGED. PLAYING/DEALING POKER HAS BEEN A PASSION OF MINE FOR A LONG TIME AND I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP IT LIKE THAT. .... BUT IF I CONTINUE TO RUN INTO PEOPLE THAT CONTINUE TO SCRUTINIZE AND HUMILIATE HERE I WILL NOT CONTRIBUTE THE DEPTHS OF MY KNOWLEDGE .. I HAVE SAT AT THE TABLE WITH SOME OF THE WORLDS GREATEST.... BOTH DEALING AND PLAYING AND BEEN NOTHING BUT COMPLIMENTD ON HOW INTELLIGENT MY GAME PLAY/ANALYSIS WAS... COMING FROM LEDERER (FOR ONE) THAT MEANT MORE THAN ANY PIECE OF ADVISE I WILL EVER GET HERE.

[welshy77]

No one is having a pop at you!! yeh i was joking about with you earlier with my " have you had a humour transplant" comment but thats the life on this forum. We are all friends, we play against one another most nights of the week.

my post after that was just an observation and me politely pointing out the way things go on this forum!! There are others who wont be so polite and will tell you it the way they see it, which is what makes this the great place it is

Good luck and happy posting

As welshy said nobody was taking a step at you. Your reposts remind me on a comic from an old german cigarette commericial. I hope you can control your temper better at the tables.

Proof me wrong and welcome to wass.
