Re: Microlimits infested by tight germans
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] pokstrategy2 = M. Wahls, former chess champion (co-founder) pokstrategy1 = password_is_1 = former starcraft player (founder) good site with a lot of (good) informations, but I don\\\'t like it because it seems 95% of the players / forum members are (ex-)counterstrike or starcraft kiddies and every thread is like a bashing / dick measure contest. [/ QUOTE ] kinda like a german nwp? [/ QUOTE ] Yes, they even have Steve Der Pimpenschlauten who scams all the top German high limit pros for thousands of Euros.

Re: Microlimits infested by tight germans
Well, so let's give that thread s short subsumption until here:
<ul type="square"> [*]They translate 2+2 authors' books to german, don't cry out too loudly that those are not their own ideas to the beginners (although they name the sources).[*]They keep the advanced information to themselves.[*]They rip off the beginners by giving them a crappy bonus offer.[*]Michael Davis' sample of german girls traveling out of country, provides empirical evidence that these are not tight, unfortunately.[*]They censor any links to better (bonus) information.[*]They are not funny. Never. Ever.[*]They infest my beloved micro limits with tight and/or aggressive players and make it harder for me to rebuild my bankroll. (Yesterday was fun though. They loved to 4-bet-semibluff their straight or flush draws only to make and cap it again on the river when they were already drawing dead against my frequently flopped full houses. Can you say 55BB/100?)[/list] Suggested solutions are <ul type="square"> [*]Get away from their prefered sites (but hey, stars is MY prefered site. They should go away.)[*]Level Hamburg. Again. (Do not use nuclear weapons please, I'm living close to Hamburg.)[*]Steal their blinds. (But hey, LPPs give you big bets, so why settle for 1.5 SBs?)[*]Invent some sequel to starcraft, maybe cardcraft where you first have to invent 'advanced river skills' so you can make your hand; inventing 'calling lvl. 4' would make you an uberfish...[/list] Basically I think they deserve to have a meeting with good old Al Capone Jr. so they can get their well deserved nut kicking. BTW, they have this: Gambler's Little Helper and they hope 2+2 doesn't find out about it. It's a Table Selector for party. I haven't tried it AND I haven't checked it for spyware/malware. Maybe someone checks it out to see if it's useful. It comes only in german, but most words closely resemble their english translations.

[ QUOTE ] Sounds like there is a German Blitzkrieg woflenstomppin all over your Party microlimits that you like to play. Solution? Don't play at Party. [/ QUOTE ] Hah, little do you know! .5/1 are small stakes in my terminology and way above my roll (and i suck at them .5BB/100)! I am talking about .05/.1, .1/.2, .25/.5 stars tables (I pwn these with 4.5BB/100@30k hands, and no it's not variance, it's ALL SKILL [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ! These are infested by them due to a former bonus program of that site. [/ QUOTE ] Those are nano-limits, dude. That's where the homeless people play.

PokerStrategy.org.uk (English)
I'm the founder of PokerStrategy.de / PokerStrategy.org.uk, so let me utter some words. Btw, I myself can be found in the 100/200 shorthanded games at PartyPoker under the name password_is_1
about it: General Info: [ QUOTE ] PokerStrategy is the biggest Poker community in Europe! Our goal is to encourage the spread of the poker variant Texas Hold’em. PokerStrategy views Poker as a purely strategic game We exclusively work with mathematical-strategical and psychological principles, rendering profitable playing possible in the long run. So we are not geared towards gamblers! We offer you a full training in Texas Hold’em to – for free! Our offer is totally free and without any obligation. There is absolutely no financial or legal liability! Investment of your own money is not wanted – and not necessary at all! PokerStrategy advises explicitly not to play with your own money. Every beginner gets a seed capital of $150 free and starts his poker career solely on this amount.

They are full of innovative ideas, of course supplemented by various secondary sources which we clearly state. 2+2 books are certainly among them and are heavily recommended to all our members. A lot of our content however is really innovative, for example an advanced theory on pre-flop which I am sure you have never heard of. Finally, we recently started working together with the well known high limit professional Stoxtrader who is going to answer strategy question in our English message boards and who will also produce weekly coaching videos.
