Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Hey guys, was curious about how many players in our community play poker like me I play almost everyday and am getting really good at it now. Won a free tournament some months ago and got 200 bucks for it. There were around 12k players in the tournament I think and I came 1st \o/ Anyone else playing on any of the softwares? or irl if not online? For those who do not know much about Texas holdem poker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPa78_YJtOk Share your experiences and achievements please.

Posted December 3, 2015 I used to play strip poker professionally. I gave it up though because the performance enhancing drugs scene within the sport is rampant right now which just ruins it imo. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 3, 2015 Many years ago we played poker daily, both online as with friends. It was really good, especially with friends and a ton of alcohol. These days I rarely play it anymore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to play on Pokerstars regularly, just micro 6max NLHE along with some sitngos. Great fun and a lot to learn...although I'm just kicking myself that I didn't started 10 years ago during 'the good old days'. I played a little back then, but being under 18, never for real money. I did watch people though...and it was easy pickings that's for sure. Now though, the rake on pokerstars is pretty high at micro and you can go on quite large up/down swings so need a decent sized bankroll compared to your stake. Also, the sit and goes are way too nitty now. When I first played them, you could basically just fold your way to the bubble. Now, you usually hit the push/fold stage with 4/5 players rather than 2-3 and even all 6 make it that far at times. So the only real edge you can have is push/fold ranges and position...probably not giving you much edge. Might pick it up again now that I've got a decent job again with some disposable income. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw a player named Egaard1 or maybe it was Egaard2 when I was on pokerstars some day back. Any chance that was you? I play on pokerstars too, spend hours and hours in online poker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 4, 2015 I used to play on PokerStars and somewhere else, but it was some years back now. Similarly I used to play with friends pretty much every Friday - now we mostly play board games instead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 1, 2016 New updates on my score: Came around 80th (forgot exact number) out of 65k people in micromillions pokerstar tournament (buy in 22 dollars)- Won 961 dollars for my rank. 1st prize was 122k dollars, so close to 1st, after clearing a playfield of 64k players, remaining 70 or so seemed so easy but thats when things get toughs caus only pros remain in the end. Had a lot of fun, about 10-12 hour session, GG 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
