Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

Off topic but.. Does anyone use any rakeback on full tilt and how does it work?

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

Yeah I use rake back via RakeTheRake.com and it works great.
Sadly, If you already have a money account you can't start collecting rake back on it. And we all know its not allowed to open multi accounts.

Rake back is great. They pay straight to my FT account once a month and in the low level I plays it is a hugh part of my poker income.
If you are going to join RakeTheRake , please mention my name : Danny Rotshtein

As for rigged, I keep seeing people claiming any site is rigged. Its true, playing at the micro levels you often see someone push with T7o , yhou call with your A's and he spike's 2 pairs , boat or a str8.

However, how often to this people push and no body call? And few times when they push with crap my hand actually held. So I do put it down to simply bad players get lucky.

I just find it hard to believe that a site that make so much money a day legit will risk losing costumers to make just a little more.

As a proof I was watching Gus Hansen playing Omaha hi the other day.
Everytime he pushed or called AI with 2 top pairs, villain had a set or made str8..
Do you think they will screw with one of their Poker Pro's?

Even worse, every time that happened, Gus will fill up (against the same player) do you think FT is stupid enough to rig it in favor of their Pro's?

[img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Enough said.

BTW, I play mostly $10NL , $25Nl and loads of $10 S&G's
If you have any clue how to play poker, please stay away from my tables [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I concur, I would also like to hear everyone's thoughts on middle stakes full ring regulars at Full Tilt Poker. Does anyone on here play at those levels? If so, who and how are the regulars

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

Has anyone noticed a good time to play? I am from the UK and i tend to find that my day time play tends to put me up with nearly all regulars. Geez, early morning i just do not bother as every 50Nl table is populated by rocks or tags.. okay i can get by by stealing and scrapping for every last chip..

Then.. 10pm+ my time.. 6pm+ ET more and more donks seem to turn up.

Anyone else found any play time better or worse?

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

Really? I play 50NL and I've never seen a bad time to play. The games are gooooood.

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

The best times to play are 7:00pm-4:00 am eastern time with 9pm-2am being real juicy.

I would be very surprised if this is the case. He's far too passive preflop, meaning that if he is a 2p2'er he doesn't follow a lot of the advice given on these forums.

Take it FWIW, I have played about 10k hands with him.

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

Hey if anyone wants to sell their databases from 100-200NL PM me.

Not all 2+2ers play the same style. Plenty of nitty mcnits around here too.

I'll mix my play up.

Here, I'm pretty sure you're raising without a strong hand, and more often than not I'll take bets from you on flop and turn. Also if your mediocre hand has a piece of the board, I can take another bet off you on the river too. It didn't work out this time, but 12 tabling, and playing 125,000 hands a month, I'm only interested in what is +EV long-term.

I'm considering moving over to FT to try for this $600 100% bonus. Can any of the regulars over there, or people who've done it, tell me how realistic it would be to clear at 25NL and how long it would take on 4-8 tables, 5 hours a day, 5 days a week. The bonus grid on bonuswhores.com reckons 1-2 months. Also, how easy would it be to auto-pilot as a rock to break even and would that affect my bonus/rakeback? (My understanding of MGR is that it wouldn't).

All this talk of riggedness is making me slightly uneasy about the move. Why would the likes of Townsend, Ivey etc. be playing on there if it was fixed? Also what are your opinions on the Kennedy assassination, Moon landing, and the Bilderberg group? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I just cleared $60 of a $150 bonus in about 2,500 hands at $50NL. It is slow going clearing bonus on Full Tilt.

I am going to analyze the stats I have from the 30K hands there where I was ai and ahead later this week (about 250 of them). I'm curious if it just seems like they suck out more.

[/ QUOTE ]

I wouldn't waste your time, as your sample is WAY too small. I would be astonished if something fishy was going on, but only an analysis of hundreds of thousands of hands will allow you to 'confirm' anything.

As I say, I don't believe it, but even a sceptic like me has to admit that there do seem to be more suckouts at FT.

[/ QUOTE ]

You guys all seem to be unaware of the obvious reason why you "think" there are more suckouts on Full Tilt. First of all, there may not be more suckouts, it may just be your perception. However, perhaps it is true that there are more suckouts than on other sites. That is absolutely normal if you assume that there are worse players playing at Full Tilt than the other sites.

For example, I played exclusively on Absolute (with rakeback) from around October, 2006 to April, 2007. I just took all my money off recently and will not go back because the games at Absolute, at least for me, are just too tough to beat. There are very few really bad players. You just don't see people stacking off like morons with weak hands (TPGK, etc.).

Recently, I put money on Full Tilt and have been playing there for a week or so and OMG OMG OMG - it's like I just rediscovered poker. People stacking off left and right with crappy hands. I almost can't believe it when I see it. It has completely renewed my faith in online poker and in my own game. In just one week at Full Tilt, I realize that I have been depressingly grinding out break-even stats at Absolute playing against a lot of good tough players (even at low stakes), when I could have been living it up at Full Tilt playing against donkeys.

Now I'm not saying that everyone at Full Tilt sucks. Its just that I can say (based on my small sample size) that there are a lot more donkeys playing there than at Absolute. Which makes sense given the high profile of Full Tilt - commercials all over TV - it's probably one of the more well known sites.

Anyway, more donkeys = more people putting their money in bad = more people sucking out. It's just simple math.

Trust me, getting sucked out on for stacks is a good thing. Go to absolute. You'll have to wait a couple of weeks before you are lucky enough to stack some moron with a weak holding.

Agreed.

How do you play so many hands a month doesn't it drive you out of your mind? Also any chance you could post a graph of what your results are like? Peace.

On that one hand I can kinda see why you play it that way, I just think it's dangerous because you aren't defining his hand and you're giving him cheap chances to suck out.

Hi, Im rather new to some of this lingo. Could you be kind enough to tell me what 11/7/5 means. Also did you get the data somewhere on line or from a data tracker that you run while playing? If its the latter which would you recommend using. Thanks for your help. Ive played IamDaisy quite a few times, had the same style as the late BigAL007, never talked, played a lot of tables... very disciplined only played AA KK QQ JJ AK limped with anything else only if in position otherwise folded. Very aggressive pre and post, and usually a big winner. Had all the making of a good bot. Just like BigAL007 he moved up, got to 1/2 then closed account.

11/7/5 =

11% V$PIP (Voluntary Money Put In Pot) measures loose/tight preflop.

7% PFR (Preflop Raise) measures preflop aggression.

5.0 Total Post-Flop Aggression Factor = (Bet+Raise)/Call so that a 1.0 means frequency of betting and raising equals the frequency of calling. Folding does not effect the number. 2.0 or higher is aggressive. Lower is pretty passive.

These are from PokerTracker. You should buy PokerTracker. You should also get a Heads Up display for stats like PokerAce Heads Up Display (PAHUD).

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

I have played on a smaller site for the past few years (True Poker) and I am heading over to Full Tilt for the rakeback and buy in bonus. Pokertracker cant be used on TP. Does the tracker slow down the computer or is it a program running in the back ground only when you have the program running.
Looking forward to seeing some of you soon. Should be about a 10-16K hand a month player....see you soon.

Re: Any Full Tilt regulars on here? NL 200 and NL 100
 

Thanks for clearing that up. I belong to pokeredge. And I was pretty sure the 11 was V$PIP but wanted to be sure. I got him at 10.1/6/4.8 and thats every hand he's ever played under IAMDaisy. Still, thats pretty damn good stats. Since you're in the know, heres another question. FTP wont let me get a rakeback on an established account. Should I close it and start a new one going through a rake back plan? Is it worth it?

I tried to play FT again last night, after a month off since the software update. The terrible lag stopped me as soon as I got 4 tables up and running - so it's back to nitty Party for me. Quite simply FT + PAHud + PT = 100% CPU utilization.

[censored] hate Full Tilt at this point. Over 50,000 hands I've seen some truly absurd stuff, culminating in a pretty sick 15BI downswing over the last two sessions.

Set over set, set lost to flopped J8 straight after I [censored] 3-BET MY NINES, hilarious flush flops, losing to one-outers on the river 3 times in one hour, knowing your overpair is ahead and watching the other overpair catch a set on the turn, etc.

Site sucks, I'm done with it. Not saying it's rigged against me, saying instead that the action isn't true. Not the same thing.

Ha ha. I used to think that way. Now when I open up 12 tables of $100 or $200, I struggle to find a table above 20% vpip - and every table has 2 or 3 &lt;12% vpips.

FT is much better, but I can't use it. I just wish someone could figure out why one person with a 2.6 GHz CPU and 1 Gig of RAM can play 12 tables - and someone else with the same setup can't play 4.
