wow, this forum sucks.

Seriously so many childish arrogant people round here competing for I don't even understand what.

Noticed it far too much recently. Most of the non-regulars and some regulars just posting trying to help out other posters get bashed by regulars that think they own the world or are the best poker player every because they finished up a buy in on the day.

Seriously, people need to start growing up around here.

Stop posting then? I'm pretty sure 90% of people ignore your advice anyway.

90% of players are losers.....

I really don't understand where you get off saying this. I try and respond as decently as possible to people. I am a winner at 5/10 and above, I post exactly what I think, if people don't want to listen that is fine I really don't care. It's not exactly like I am posting for my benefit.

To be honest, if you want to ignore my advice that's fine, I guess I must post really terribly.

If you want to get down to, "zomg who wins the most" wars, then I can safely wager that I have made more this month than you have made all year....

Last point :

If you think my advice is bad, then point out what's wrong with it please.

fwiw, True - I think you are one of the best posters on here. I don't agree w/ everything you say (but a lot of that could be b/c you have a different style than me/others). But I think you are quite insightful. Not sure
why people give you such a hard time.

fwiw, True - I think you are one of the worst posters on here. I don't agree w/ everything you say (but a lot of that could be b/c you have a different style than me/others). You single handedly made me resolve to never try to talk strategy in these forums again.

True - does playing at Crypto £ tables [censored] you over on exchange rates every time you sit down at a table or how does that work out? You think the games there are good?

[True]

the £ tbales dont matter on exchange rates, you get charged nothing at all. They do however take more rake (max 6$ / 3£) so more rake paid but players usually worse.

I see good players starting up 2/5 pound tables and really dont know wtf is going on there.

At every table, there are 25/21s and 19/15 players, the sites all work on rake paid so work on attracting lots of people that can multi table play lots of tables etc. I think in future it will become easier because there is now a cap on promotions etc so sites spend more on advertising.

Anyway, Im beating the games but I think some of the time they can be solid.

Nice!

[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Crypto. I started playing there last week and the games are so soft. We have problably played alot vs eachother.

Would like to know which regulars you respect at £500 and $1k.

[True]

what is your nickname.

Only people I think really are good are inicius_ who makes loose calls and also Came2Win / Jannegul are solid. There are a lot of other regulars who are good but not great.

What is your name and who do you think is good?
