iPoker quirks..
Having only played about 5k hands on iPoker- i've noticed some 'quirks' in their software..
1) Weird SB posting OOP.. I dont know how this works- but i've noticed people posting the SB OOP then being allowed to call/fold to match the BB.. 2) Capped betting round in NL..? This hand came up today: _________________________________________________ $0.5/$1 No Limit Holdem 6 players Converted at weaktight.com Stacks: UTG (<font color="#0000cc">$61.56</font>) UTG+1 (<font color="#0000cc">$104.70</font>) CO (<font color="#0000cc">$121.20</font>) BTN (<font color="#0000cc">$100.60</font>) Hero (<font color="#0000cc">$112.00</font>) BB (<font color="#0000cc">$28.07</font>) Pre-flop: ($1.5, 6 players) Hero is SB Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] UTG calls $1, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 raises to $2</font>, <font color="#777777">2 folds</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $9.5</font>, BB calls $8.5, UTG calls $8.5, <font color="#777777">UTG+1 folds</font> Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($30.5, 3 players) <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $15</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB goes all-in $18.57</font>, UTG calls $18.57, Hero calls $3.57 _________________________________________________ It wouldnt let me raise anymore on this street- I could only call the $3.57 ... 3) Not receiving any cards in the SB- and still being asked if I would like to call or fold the BB. anyone else experiencing these problems? anything to add? *only played Titan and noIQ.. |

Re: iPoker quirks..
i play pretty much only on CD poker, (the $50 FOrt Knox Jackpot SNGs) and their lobby has gotten so slow in the last 2 months it takes ages for the SNGs to appear and they are full quite often

Re: iPoker quirks..
The capped calling is normal, you as original bettor cannot reraise a less-than-minimum raise.

Re: iPoker quirks..
Yeah that isn't a betting cap, just that his raise wasn't a full raise so it couldn't be re-raised. If you were allowed to raise it, now that would be a problem.
The posting SB is usually when the SB was missed but the BB was played, maybe timing out on the BB or busting out and no re-buying in time. Not sure if the blind is supposed to be dead when they come back. I know that if you missed both you post a live BB and a dead SB. |

I know at some live poker rooms if you miss just the SB it is live. In my experience at most rooms the SB dead.

Re: iPoker quirks..
One other thing I forgot to mention is their raise system is differant to other poker sites.. its a 'raise' not 'raise to' (ie it adds your raise amount to what you have in front)..
why would they program it like this?.. |
