afternoon poker

[geForce]

Man, some people like to gamble. Some guy rivered me twice in a row to get a flush.

First hand, I got a top 2 pair off the flop. I'm betting average.. maybe around 5 times the blind after the flop and 10 times the blind after the turn, then 10 times again after the river. He calls only, but he hit the flush on the river, but before that he had high card only.

Second hand, I got a nut straight off the flop. I bet big to start with. 5 times the blind pre-flop because I had A K. 20 times the blind after the flop, then all-in (which was about 80 times the blind) after the turn. He hits a flush on the river again.... I just couldn't get this guy to fold. I was pretty pissed.

haha... i think i just figured out how to beat gordon at poker irl... call everything!

that being said, it's a long weekend... someone up it set? lols

[nature boy]

i tried playing here and there only to get wasted by fishermen as always.

i'd like to play, but i can't today. supposed last day at work before holidays but i'm busy as f#ck.

too bad you can't set up private tables with this app... then we could try to out fish each other

[geForce]

We could make a Slow speed table. That would almost be private, since most people like fast tables.

[nature boy]

or one with crazy blinds. but none of us really play the same time.

[geForce]

We can only do crazy blinds IF you have the stack to back it up.. I guess that would just be Dunc and me lol

[nature boy]

no, just put crazy blinds and you guys keep folding until my stack is built up a bit. so simpo.

[nature boy]

and btw, this game is so glitchy if you're logging in with two accounts. sometimes winnie would get the daily bonus, sometimes i would. it's like each device only gets it once.

[Duncan]

the app is super glitchy in general.. i still get d/c problems all the time... hate it when i have the nuts too...

[geForce]

Haha, some guy went nuts on me yesterday.

I had pocket 8's, and off the flop there was J,5,K, then 3 and 10 came out. I just called all the way, and I ended up winning with pair 8's. Someone asked me why I didn't raise with pocket 8's, so I said because there were 2 over cards. Plus, I said this game seems kinda rigged to me because someone always seems to have the nuts.

Then 2 hands later, I had a J in my hand and 2 J's show up on the flop. I bet into it, and at the end, I had trip J's but no one else was betting. I bet average after the river and some guy went all in after. I couldn't fold trip J's, so I called... I had him covered anyway. He ended up having full house J's since the flop.

I made a comment - I just said "see?". Meaning, someone always seems to get the nuts. The guy who won just went crazy on me, calling dumb, stupid, idiot and stuff. I was like, "woah, why the hostility.. wasn't blaming you". He just kept saying I don't know how to play and that I'm stupid.

I don't know what was up with that guy.

i think you're giving these fb players too much credit.. i doubt they'd even know how to calculate pot odds lol... there are tons of randoms just playing because they see poker on tv and they think they can play too. They don't know the odds and what you're supposed to do in what situation... some people call all ins with a high card for no apparent reason.. and their high card is like an 8 or something.

it's pretty lame but i guess like joel said, it's pretty much funny money so people don't care and just call in hopes of pulling a horseshoe outta their a$$... sometimes i do that for funz too haha...

if we want real poker action, we should play for real money
