Welcome to .05/.10 poker. You just made a post about this in another thread, you should know that this is how it is. Nice pot at this level.

Thanks....I'm just saying I had never seen anything this ridiculous...maybe I just got lucky in table selection, but making money was much harder than this over at FullTilt.......And was wondering if anyone had any similar experience

But I geuss I would side with lucky table selection....

But thanks for the compliment

Table selection was a HUGE part in why you got paid off so nicely, but I've seen some crazy-ass shiz at the lower levels. Players think all the time, "Why not, it's just an extra $7, prove to me that you beat my Ace -high."

Yeah, im not saying FullTilt is a shark zone at 0.05/0.10 it was just lucky to sit at a table with 1 person so blatantly bad...let alone 3 that call a 40BB raise PF....just wondering if this is normal at Stars or luck.

But as you said, I probably just got lucky....I was just so happy to see money go into my pocket so easily!

Yes. Just be prepared for absolutely ridiculous suckouts. Budget a couple of keyboards to buy in case tilt forces you to break them
Dealer: bencathers has two pair, Aces and Deuces
Dealer: Tbags has two pair, Kings and Jacks
Dealer: Tbags finished the tournament in 256th place
Tbags [observer]: another scumbag gets there on this site lol

heh I used to just buy-in at .05-.10 for $15 or so and push with any high pair
