| Greetings all,
I seem to be going though a rough patch at Will Hill. I'm finding I often get it in with the best hand, and be often a 80+% favourite before the River only to continually loose. Last night I had pocket Kings, there was a raise before it got to me with three other players, I re-raised 4X's the original hoping to take down the pot then only to be called by two players - flop contains the mandatory Ace and two hearts. I go all in for my last 8 quid, one player folds, the other calls me with 6 8 of hearts - turn is a blank, River brings, you guessed it, Q of Hearts! This gent had called with nothing but the flush draw, and hit it - I'm so over these beats - why do these people never fold....and worse, why do they hit so much!
Broadcast of the video casino - good thing, but that the player can receive quality picture he must have a stable and fairly fast connection to the Internet. Typically, the rate should be no lower than 256 kbps. In some videos, a casino, the player can choose the video quality to conform to his channel.
And finally like to mention is the fact that videokazino, much more interesting to use different strategies such as the Martingale system for playing roulette basic strategy for playing blackjack. The video casino certainly no "curves" random number generators. Everything here is really at 100% and depends only on the case, your luck and skill to play.

| Quite a lot of us think that we're unlucky and that the river card always ruins it. I've thought that a few times myself. At least you're calling him a gent and not a donk! I know a couple of guys who deal at the casino, and from what they've told me it happens a lot on the live tables. It just seems as if it happens more online because hands are dealt more quickly.
I've called a few times chasing a flush, not always if the cards are as low as 6 and 8, as I prefer there to be more outs than just one suit. I don't know about you, but when I play on cash tables I can tilt very easily. I just stick to SnG's or tourneys.
I'm sure someone older and wiser will come along and give more advice. I still class myself as a fish because I've only been playing a few months! | |

| I have swings when no matter how good my hand is the river kabooms it. LOL. I have flopped the nut flush, boats, etc and get chased down and beat. You can lead a donkey to the river, but you can't make him fold. X | |

| pokerchic,
I have played against you quite a few times, your game is solid, your betting strategies when you hit are what let you down, you try and trap too much and try for the payoff at the river.
Any payoff if a good payoff!!!!
Please dont think I am being rude, because im not, but always think of what they could have and there possible outs, donkeys and fish chase anything, bet more girl.
Steve

I agree with you. When I hit I want to slow play and get some chips in the middle. Sometimes more than any it does work to my advantage, then sometimes I does not. I will keep your advice in mind. X | |

| I will offer you this advice too since I have played tourney's ranging from .10-10k.
Your game suits a 50.00-150.00 1R1A strategy.
Stay away from .01-50.00 games, you're a bit of a target girl.
never seen your game face or what you look like, but I am thinking you would be good in live games also.
Live play is so much different to online, body language, intimidation, general table presence. Too give you an idea I think I am down 25k on poker stars alone this 1/2 of the year, despite having some good results, and I am well up over 6 figures live in the same period.
Anyways if you want to elope to Australia also, we can surf all day and play poker alnight.

| Thanks again twinkyninja. Your advice is solid. Once I build my bankroll to a nice size I will be moving up a level. What level (buy-in) are you playing online? And the surfing sounds fun. LOL. X | |

| Hey depends on my mood. I often also play freerolls, I am playing a badgui freeroll on stars right now, later at night i like the 109.00 turbos, weeekends I stick too high end buy in tournies on fulltilt (no many dicks around on weekends to play smaller $$$), i love the 1R1A tourneys around the 50-250$$$ range.
Online I pick the day and time I play for various events, I like to try to avoid, donkeys, idiots, people with no respect for money etc lol.
Steve
P.s Surfing is fun! | |
