I'd just like to report that my first session on Stars in 8 months is going as projected...

Poker Stars $25+2 45-man turbo
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t10/t20
9 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG folds, Hero raises to t80, 5 folds, SB calls t70 (pot was t110), BB calls t60 (pot was t180).

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t240, 3 players)
SB bets t300, BB calls t300 (pot was t540), Hero folds.

Turn: 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t840, 2 players)
SB is all-in t1080, BB calls t1080 (pot was t1920).

River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t3000, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t3000)

Results:
SB shows Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (a full house, Threes full of Queens)
BB shows A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (two pair, Eights and Threes)
Final pot: SB wins t3000

Thats totally standard in a 45 man turbo. Those things are rigged worse than the 9 man ones.

You're one hell of a tenant.

I don't know if this is a brag or not, but my wife once scared the crap out of a full grown african rhino.

How much does that cost? Details?

xPeru · #**1976** 08-22-2007, 12:45 AM

It was about 6 years ago and I believe cost about £6,000, so maybe $12k.

A donk and a call is pretty strong back where I come from, though in retrospect it was definitely a bad play. That makes it the perfect example of how Stars is rigged in favor of bad players in every possible way.

6 years ago it would've been $9000. In 2 years it will be $4500. Exchange rates fluctuating, etc.

How and why would you fold the flop? The most important of the 2 is how? I really wanna know.

Why is obv. idiots abound.

As for riggedness, yes a bit but truly, if you would've shoved this a fraction of a second earlier or later, which you would've, it would've altered the random cards which would've changed the turn/river to K/K. You know that, ur a nuclear something or other. I'm a stupid Grunt.

am I right?

Yeah... this is why my fold was bad.

Seriously... it was just me donking around to test out the new Stars deposit option in a game I don't know well at all. My thought process at the time was something like "SB has at least a Q with a decent kicker and BB has at least a pair. ??? Profit."
