Ladbrokes

Ok, all this week i have been playing at Ladbrokes, and as i have said before, i am new to on-line poker.

One thing i have noticed is that people will call you down or raise/re-raise you to the river.
Is this common on all poker sites??????? or are the loons just at ladbrokes?

Thanks

Fug`s.

That is online poker. When you don't have to look someone in the eye after doing something stupid, it is alot easier to play that way. You can win big but get blindsided the next hand by what people will call with.

Many times you may think your hand must be being beaten by the other players constant betting - but normally its because they are -
1. Over-rating their hand
2. Chasing a flush or straight
3. Trying to bluff
4. Or more often - FISH

Sometimes your hand will be beaten - but this is a lesson i and im sure many others have realised, When then pros say only bet with the best hands - they are right

This happends at every poker site you play on, you will find this as you play at more sites. Ladbrokes has as many bad players as all the other sites but it also has some very good pro players. A lot depends on the limits you play at, the lower the limt, the more likely it is you will get sucked out by players who are not worried by the fact they might lose their $5 entry if they call down to the river with middle pair or a flush draw hoping to catch
