I do want I refer to as "slammin' pennies" of UB. I visit the PL $2 tables and raise every pot until it becomes an allin-fest. There is no appropiate strategy for the table. If you run a twodimes.net for 5 random hands against AAJ10ds, you are going to find that it isnt much of an advantage.

The only advice I would have in those situations is to not gamble with money that you cant lose, because it is gambling at that point, not poker.

welcome to btp, dj.

you were right in thinking that one could cherry-pick this table apart... the question is what is the best way to do it. the more i think about it, the more i think that high-oriented hands (big pairs, wraps, ds big cards, etc.) are the way to go. i actually came to a similar conclusion to ED that even the middle wraps are probably pretty good since your low could actually be good. regardless, it was a gamble.

related to tek's post, i wonder what kind of edge (percentage-wise) one could get being optimally selective against 5 opponents aipf. your fair % is about 17%, so would optimal play get you 20% on average? 25%? i wonder.

also, dj, what was the deal with the 3000 points? i have largely dropped out of the poker scene due to an overseas move and finishing my dissertation. was this some sort of ft promotion?

5thstpimp used to play a bit on crypto and party too, know him a bit, pretty reasonable from what I recall. Leeloo was not great from what I recall on Party. I dunno the others.

I don't like 6 handed or cap games that much.

I like that I make games exciting and fun, but no comments are made about my skillz.
