This is my I wish there was a better option to play poker online sick of Merge software and dont trust revolution thread.I just had some idiot call all in pre with 87 suited against AA just so he can hit a flush on the river,please can someone explain how you go from a VPIP of 12 to calling allin with 87 unless you know your cards are coming????Is there a way to report suspect behavior to merge???
hahaha the ugly truth is that some people actually call an Allin with 87Suited , My QQ was called by 7J suited & lost to runner runner flush
sorry to say but you see this play on any given site on any given day. It sucks but you have to grind through. As far a suspecting something going on, you can always e-mail the sites support any time you want. good luck
My Dad used to say to me "You can want and 1 hand and shit in the other... see which one fills up faster"
Know that you have paid many times with small books, reading your opponent if you play only high cards and pairs only ..
He was probably just drunk, or smart...Quote:

But when the smoke clears, it's your money play with it the way you want to.
Anyone who thinks all the pros give away all their tips are stupid.Quote:

I mean if he is getting a good price, and he percieves your range to consist of alot of small pp's and alot of Aces+9 kicker then he is in a real good spot to make the call. I mean it could have been a number of things. If this is a vent I understand. However, if this is a real question looking for real analysis, then maybe a HH would help better explain whats up. Good luck at the tables.Quote:

this is a partial reason i'm hosting world series of playmoney events on pokerstars to help pass the time while following the wsop this summer. since alot of us can no longer play freerolls or real money games but still love playin.
I would like to have the stars back too. It was nice being able to see the progress you were making with the stars.
I wish we had full tilt back, they still owe me money. I wonder if i will ever see it.
I miss pokerstars too! I really wish they would bring it back! Boost the economy with poker!
Sobbing..I miss PS too. Hopefully one day the Government will see the light.
I can still play on stars but i cant play on the merge network because they wont let me join from my country. God knows why this is.
I liked stars software better than others, but maybe that's just me.
I want stars back good theme for poker lovers :) bye.
I know US players want Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker back but it's not up to them to decide.
i miss stars and full tilt to be honest dont think we will ever see them back
I really miss starz too use to play it all the time but that shit started happening there towards the end too .
Screw Pokerstars & Fulltilt... I want PartyPoker back!!!
i liked both sites for the amount of players they had. you get in a tourney on cabon and theres maybe 300 ppl in them. small prize pool. of course they have gtds but those arent as large as stars n tilt were either. 3000 ppl in a stars tourney 12-1500 1st place for 1$ at times
what tilts around goes around - the 78 s guy prolly lost (like me) 12tneys in a row to donks calling with a2 into my ak and winning
I think the play on Merge is a lot softer than Stars used to be.
Same here. I hope stars comes back and tilt come back to just so i can be able to play with a room to room transfer option.
pokerstars was my favorite site.maybe one day we will have it back : )
Know that you have paid many times with small books, reading your opponent if you play only high cards and pairs only .. Unfortunately
ive seen alot worse calls that ended up beating me. can also say ive made a couple of those calls
don`t cry after it to much bcause its still that ol` rigged sh!t
stars=nononononono.....ftp=yesyes.....wish ftp days where how they were!! rip ftp
FTP rng>stars rng>merge rng
Most of us here in the USA want the same thing...
