Thought I'd start one of these up as a bit of a catch-all for the poo poo that doesn't fit nicely elsewhere. Where's everyone watching the game tonight? (trick question watch it at home you fucks)

Jedi Knight Luigi posted:Dunno where else to put this so in putting it here i can't find the footage online anymore but when this came out about 3 years ago... people commented without actually watching what happened in the game. first, it was "Celebrity Poker Showdown" which was one of those Post-Moneymaker Cable Poker Shows that happened because of the poker boom... so its not exactly like the level of play was very high. jason does make baby noises, and mary comments about "trying" to make her lactate. then the hand that the post refers to where she lost most of her chips came when she had A4o in the SB vs Jason's JTs on the BTN. Jason (BTN) J  TMary (SB) A  4 Nic (BB) 7 7Jason raises to $1800 Mary raises to $2900 Nic calls $2100 Jason reraises to $4900 Mary reraises to $7900 Nic folds Jason calls $300 Flop is 3  4TMary shoves all in $10800 Jason calls $9700 turn 7 , river Q Jason wins with a Q-high diamond flush.they go to hug but apparently Mary has more chips and she stays in and busts out sometime later with pocket 5s the footage from when Jason makes the baby sounds was 8 minutes of TV show time, which means there was a much longer time in passing between when he made baby sounds to that actual huge pot. then during the hand she's also seen holding Jason's hand and when she busts out (or think she does) she goes to hug him and calls him "son of a bitch" in a friendly manner. so yeah this post is kinda bogus

Always a smart choice to figure out one way the game could go and then make 11 different bets on the game playing out exactly like that.

So I found some random Mary McCormack fan website that had the clips. Literally the only source of this left on the Internet short of Bravo releasing a 15 year old tv show they probably get very little revenue from. I put it up on YouTube as a unlisted link but I'm guessing sooner or later it'll get taken down. Also I want to clarify, when I said there was 8 minutes of TV show time between his baby noises and the big pot. I actually meant her bust out hand as you can see from the clips, he was doing it during the hand. First one is the actual hand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7oPZPtzYC0 This is her bust out hand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7If565sZsc Fake Edit: I can't get the clips to play inline, so you'll have to click through to YouTube.

I love my copag four colors for home games but would like a thicker cardstock because my dumb bone hands are bad at shuffling. Anyone know if Bicycle/Hoyle are still making decent looking 4-colors post poker boom? All I can find are the super large print for seniors & looks like tattoo art for collectors ones; I really just want a regular deck in four colors.

Hellmuth! That's pretty loving crazy. All the table talk there and side bets would put me on so much tilt. I guess its "good tv". Maybe they all have pieces of each other and no one really gives much of a poo poo besides collecting the tv appearance fee.

Yeah if you're always folding the 2nd nuts to huge overbets that can be exploited and a solver would have an issue with that. I'm pretty sure Doug was thinking the range he was against was exactly QT before Phil started talking, though the talking definitely didn't help his cause.

I think 50% he was gonna fold anyway but Hellmuth put his finger on the balance. And I'm not surprised either because Hellmuth being a jackass to his own detriment should never surprise anyone.

That was a great lay down, I'm sure influenced by Polk's knowledge of Helmuth (and Helmuth talking like a fool), but I’m not so sure it was the correct play in the long run. I cant imagine that the money you save when you are right in these situations makes up for the money you lose when you end up folding the winner. Sets, 2 pair, maybe a broken draw, the same hand, or even just a flat out bluff are all at least possible, and I think it’s more likely that the villain has one of those as him having the 1 hand that beats you.

i think it helps that the raise was huge there was another player, so it makes it harder for phil to have complete air. doug doesn't think phil does this with a set. so given that its hard for phil to be bluffing and he's not bluffing with something like a set. the remaining hands are something like QT, T7, AsTs-AsKs (no AsJs obv), As8s. and he's about 30% to win the hand against the range. i don't think he's worried about the long run EV of folding T7 here. he is obviously not going to fold T7 here often but i think the situation didn't really add up for him and phil just blabbing made him fold. i think there was a chance doug calls if phil stays completely silent even with all the signals. don't get me wrong, what an amazing laydown. i think most people in that situation would gladly call without hesitation. the play was just awful by hellmuth though. if he just raises it a normal amount doug's probably losing a lot more.

love to watch guys who havent seen 90k lifetime post about how they would have played this nosebleed hand better yea man if you fold this at nl100 it's really bad but this is phil hellmuth shoving 95k into 20k instantly and doug polk is better than you

What's a decent site to play online poker these days? I've been out of it for ~10 years but I'm looking to get back in to it. I enjoy and focus on NL Texas Hold Em tournament play. I'm not interested in any bitcoin site.

I feel like there's certain spots you can pick to get an edge if you say one or two things, but I generally keep it quiet while i'm in a hand. I never really understood people saying, "hey get out of the hand, I got you" or "big hand alert" or some poo poo like that.

I'm quiet as hell playing live, besides just making some idle chitchat with the guys next to me. Making friends with the guys next to you might be a little advantageous. But I think I'd give up more info than I get if I tried to roleplay some angleshooting dumbass.

But, it's hard to explain to drunk people that folding out of turn actually matters, counting your chip stack while there is 4 people waiting to act matters. Live poker is wild sometimes. Of course, if you're a big tipper and you're dumping cash on the table left and right you can basically do everything wrong in the game and no one will say poo poo. I'm mostly talking about poo poo like trying to gain an informational edge heads-up in a hand. do you all find that it's worth it ?
