A thread to talk about poker

[Munson]

I flopped trips and bet on the flop and the turn and some asian dude chased a 5 high farging flush down to the river. And of course the 4 of diamonds hit. Awesome.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

How expensive did you make it for him to chase, though?

[Munson]

I was on the button and three people limped in before me...so i limped, and the two blinds, so it was a 12 dollar pot....everyone checked around to me on the flop so I bet 15....then on the turn I bet 25...dude still called.

As soon as the diamond hit I knew I got screwed.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

$25 bet was too small.  But sometimes you're just going to get farged anyway.

So apparently, despite 3 years away from the game, I haven't forgotten how to play online limit hold'em. In an hour and a half I'm up 70 at a freaking 1/2 table. Suckers.

UltimateBet started sending you emails again, too?

i'm playing in the wsop next weekend in vegas.

i promise to share none of my winnings with any of you.

matty-whats the minimum buy-in at that stage?

I've obviously seen the main event at a 10g buy-in and some of the others plays at 5g but I'm curious to know how many actual games go down there

there are 57 events in all in the wsop and the majority of them are 1500-5000 buyins.  other than the casino employee game, 1500 is the minimum. 

[ice grillin you]

i dont know shtein about non sports gambling so this is probably a retarded question but is it 1500 to just get in then you have to buy chips...or 1500 bucks gets you in the game with X amount of starting chips and you go till youre out?

second. everyone starts with same amount of chips, thats tournament style.

a more relaxed game may see you buy whatever the farg you want in chips, but thats not the wsop.

didnt answer the question

In his own retarded way he tried to answer the question, but since he can't communicate effectively you missed it. 'Second' means that your second described option is correct.
