I prefer the new formats too.

PokerStars have launched a new format called All-In Poker on their site. Basically, you start with 5bbs and you can either fold or go all in. If you manage to spin your stack up to 25bbs, then your all in is capped at 25bb, It's a fast and fun format, although the variance is huge, and I have played quite a bit and wondered if anyone else has? My initial thoughts are that it is beatable at the moment. Lots of people are pushing too wide with a big stack wen there are big stacks behind them, and players are folding too wide when they are the short stack, However, once people figure it out, it will simply become a rake trap, imo. Also, it takes a lot of the skill out of the game, as you literally have two moves, fold or go all in. Has anyone else played and what are your opinions on the game and it's future?

Ran stupidly good, as usual, but don't worry....I can't play next week as I'm off to Vegas in the morning!

A bit of drunken Zoom on Christmas morning! he paid my overbet on the river! Incidentally, for all those interested (ie no-one) ThysYool is a medieval phrase meaning "This Christmas". So there ya go. Merry Christmas!

Ah...I thought it was me!

When your 3-bet bluff works out!

No better place to do it!

Wow! I wasn't expecting that. Once again thanks to Avongirl for doing all the hard work, and to Punters Lounge for their generosity in supporting the league.

The dealer is being a dick, basically. I would ask for the floor manager, and if he ruled my hand was dead, I'd never play there again.

I rarely play online, (except for the PL League, of course) but I jumped into a game on Grosvenor Poker tonight.....$168.70

Super, providing you don't fold preflop

Not really a super flop when you're trying to get paid......he stabbed the turn, then folded the river.
