Thanks for the heads up. Already cashed in on one.

Re: \"Aces Never Lose\" on WPEX Fri noon-Sat noon and Weds.
 

Players that play stud eight or better and are not playing at WPEX during the aces never lose promotion don't know what they are missing. If you play in these games and log any sort of time in , you can easily rack up between 5 and 10 of these in a day. At the 3 and 6 dollar level that's a minimum of $500 just in bonus not to mention the relative softness of all the hi lo games on that site.
There were 3 stud 8 ($3-6) games going recently but it should be more often IMO with this promotion. It's a no brainer.

Just my two cents.

Nice call, even though I posted the rules, it hasn't really occured to me that the stud games are a good option too. Don't know stud8, might be a good reason to learn.

B. <-- cashed twice on busted aces already today for $150 in my account. Woo Hoo!!

Stud/8 counts? I had assumed it was just Stud high, because it seemed insane to do it for /8. Both buried and split OK, and winning either half of the pot counts as a win?

Guess money's going back into WSEX for this.

Or is it just the first two hole cards that count? Be nice if you could use any 2 of 3.

I've been paid for split Aces in Stud HIgh.

Re: \"Aces Never Lose\" on WPEX Fri noon-Sat noon and Weds.
 

Sorry, I didn't respond earlier. Yes the promotion does count for stud high and also for stud 8 or better; and yes it counts for split aces as well as aces in the hole.
I was glad to see 3 and a half tables of $3/6 stud eight or better going earlier today when I checked in. It really is a can't lose proposition.
On a side note, it's just unbelievable how quick the rake adds up in my account when I play there. I try to put in four or five six hour days a week over there. The problem is that it usually ends up being more like 3 or 4 days and only maybe 3 or 4 hours a day but I still get anywhere from a thousand to $1,600 in rake back per week.
The players are much tougher than any other site as far as holdem goes but if you play omaha 8 or better or stud 8 or better, they are nothing special (and are borderline bad in stud 8 or better). The 2-4 omaha/8 game is by far the nittiest of the split games but still easily beatable if you are a good o8 player. When you move up to the 3/6 or 5/10 omaha/8 game, there is one guy who makes the game good all by himself. He reminds me of MrRobert in the old days on the Stars 75game. He is that aggressive.
As far as the holdem players being much better, I think they are but if you learn to think about the game , they can be beat easily. I think too many people got used to beating up on total morons over the years and forgot how to think and play poker with other good players. If you go to wpex and start beating the holdem games there then you can go and beat any holdem game of similar stakes at any other site with ease. I would liken it to playing pool on a 9 foot table for an hour or so and then going to a bar table and shooting lights out (although the congestion on a bar table can be a whole other matter) but you get my drift. I guess a better analogy would be going from a snooker table for half hour and then playing on a 9 footer.

Alright I'm done rambling.

Got an hour left, anyone for 3/6 stud/8?
