Ironicly, my first big Max Bet And Win (while at a full table), was with Aces and Eights (a dead man's hand) lol.

Wish I would have taken a video. 

 

The next hand or so was a blind Max Bet and everyone called. Only this time the community cards turned a full house of Aces over Kings and everyone won lol.

It's fun. I'd play the sh*t out it if it were higher stakes. I've only played 2 games so far, walked away on the plus side each time. Last game, just awhile ago, doubled my money in 4 hands.

I've found that the best medicine for all-times-all-in'ers is to really drag out the game. I won't fold until the timer has almost run out.

All-times-all-in'ers do not have the patience for that

I'm currently playing a game with a all in'er who got $48.5 from pure luck

And i'm pissed off

Just be pacient, you'll eventually outchip him (if outchip is even a word if not then I invented it lol) There's no real play with these kind of people in cashgames, just simply wait for a good hand and become the all-iner yourself, they ain't gonna fold, they probably even don't know what fold or bluff means. Silly.

I always am. But with this guy I didn't have even 1 hand I could've won and he still left the game with 60 dollars just from pure luck. That was crazy man.

I am pretty decent at hold em I like to think myself.

I'm just not lucky enough to win a decent pay. Like yesterday, I had a ace and a queen. On the table comes an ace and a queen, but also a king. And it turns out one of the other players has an ace and a king in this hand...

 

That's how my pokerlife goes, it's fun, but for me it's not an easy way to get some quick extra ingame cash...

went to san de knee to find some of the dynamic events, got bored of searching and ended up at the saloon, drank my 5 beers for the daily and had a sit at the poker table, hahah to my enjoyment 4 lowlevels who looked like they had no clue what their doing, i had to wait till their hand was finished, all they did was bet, then fold. so, i had a queen, and a 8, not very good but lets go, put in 20 cents, guy next to me raises 5, 2 fold, other guy matches the bet.

 

pot was now 17 dollars, time to spring the trap, cards dealt on table: 9 10 jack  and king and a random card i forgot, put in 3.50 for giggles, get matched twice, pot is now 20+ i raise to 5, get matched once, other one folds, i got a nice line up with that queen, made 27 dollar.

 

next hand goes, i get dealth dual aces, let em raise the pot a little ,i max bet once after the cards get turned: insta fold for everyone: 45 dollars made in 2 games, NICE. off to play again

My most exciting one was probably when I got a double ace as my starting hand, which I was bouncing off of walls over but I wanted to grab as much of the other player’s cash as possible, so I made a few baby bets, then I gradually progressed it until I got the max bet. Won about $30 from it.

They most likely limited the stakes so that people cannot use Poker as a means of selling in-game funds. Something akin to gold sellers in large MMORPG's.

yesterday i got a queen high straight and won $19.00, not bad.

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run

I had a straight flush in real life once, I know I'll never top that, lol.

Poker sure gets easier when you have a good run of cards.

 

Cleaned up last night at a table of 4 with someone else joining when someone left. But mostly that was due to my getting very good hands early - including pocket aces very first hand, 2 full houses and a 4 of a kind (not all in a row. That would have been insane). Put the brakes on the "max bet all the time" types. Suddenly, no one seemed to want to call me when I pushed. Made about $100 profit in 30 minutes or so.

 

But usually, the cards aren't so kind. I have to be much more patient and can't get very aggressive.
