I always thought you had to be a youtube partner to be able to do that. Guess not.

 

[eNTy]

possibly
actually probably

I've been lax with poker since Black Friday but, I want to get back to playing again and rebuilding a roll. Any US players care to comment on the availability of action for us online? I have a carbon account with ~$50 on it but the game selection was very limited last time I checked.

edit: I suppose this can include SnG/tourney selection too as I'm decent at those and mainly looking to increase $$ rather than focus on cash for the short term.

 

[vanquish]

have you ever played 6max vanq at all?

I've played a lot of 6m PLO but like 5k hands of actaul hold em 6m games (not including FR tables that happened to be SH)

ive been stacked like 5 times in the last 2 days on boards like that
they always have it

 

[acky100]

I like it

"he checked river he has no flush, i cant win pot unless i bluff, i bluff big"

Would someone ever shove here with K flush hoping to get called by a lower one? Would noone shove here to make it look like a bluff with the nuts? Or were you real sure he couldnt of had a flush here... or could he of had a flush here but the chance of him having the K flush was small and there was so much more chance of him bluffing here that its insta profit for you to snap?



Oh also, dunno if its old news or not guys but

[Marginal]

I want a redeposit bonus. 1 time stars.

 

[eNTy]

whats the point of more fpps theres nothing good in the store anymore
no more bonuses so all you can really do is play a shitton of fpp satties to try and convert which is another high variance pain in the ass

 

[LuckyChippy]

Pretty sure it says VPP's unless I'm being dense? That's awesome shit if so.
