Any of you play here on line or at a casino ?

**blueorb** · 02-10-2006, 10:38 AM

Yep, mostly at Poker Stars.

I play there also.Do you ever get ahead and what table limit do you play ?
I played a live table at a casino yesterday,much different.4 - 8 $ limit

I have only been playing there for about a week now. As of right now I am up (a whopping 10 dollars) . I won my first tournament (table) last night. Came in second a few times. I mostly play at the $13.00 buy in tables with 10/20 blinds. I doubt I go higher until I win a few more tables.
Of course, the very next game after winning my first table I bust on my second hand. I have Q/Q in the hole with a 5/Q/K flop. I'm holding trip Q's. The guy right behind goes all in. Of course I call (He has more money than I do from winning the first hand). He's holding pocket K's. Unbelievable.
Anyway...

It was my first live table.I lost a good one to a pair of aces,he had ace king I had ace queen.He raised and i called a couple of times.I left the table down.Live and learn.I won the first hand or 2,but after i lost that one my luck and cards were bad.So I left the table down about 80 bucks.I went in with 120.I then won it back at a roulette wheel just betting on black or red.Left the roulette wheel with about 220.Played caribean poker also and almost one the big pot of 140,000,one card away from a royal flush.Ended leaving just a little ahead.I was at belltera casino indiana .

I have been to Beltera once its pretty nice. How many live poker tables does Beltera have now? Do they have no limit there? That would have been very nice if you got the jackpot on Caribean stud. I wonder what it would feel like siting there if you won it. At least you came out a head.

I they have i think 4 tables ,one of them is no limit.My dad was at the same table he came one card from a 14k pot right before my close call hand.He won 30 k last year at caesars on a pie cal table.only sat down at the table with 40 bucks.

I play at both places. I play on PokeStars than I also go to the casino an hour from my house. That's a great drive too because its all back country roads with no cops in sight. Playing at the casino is better IMO, because you see people face to face, and it's real easy to catch them bluffing. I took $200 off one guy with 3rd pair, becasue I caught him bluffin big time. The look on his face was priceless, when I called.

Ive been playing texas holdem for 3 years...

I make the majority of my profits from online play usually between the $2/$4 limit tables and the 100$ No Limit tables.

When i play for fun, i usually play at a friends house with a small 5$ to 10$ buyin.

My friends and I have games going just about every other nite. $10.00 a game ( and we don't play that yahoo shit of buying back in either).

I play at casinos quite abit, most of the time i play 1-2 no limit, but its easier to win money with pot limit...

yahoo shit of buying back in?? thats a cash game ... tournament is a mostly no buy-backs.. i prefer buybacks at home games, gives you more chances of busting the same person repeatedly

Student, and online poker pays for my gas and electric bill. Pacific for the notoriously poor players, and bonus whoring at party, UB, stars, and the various prima skins.
