I lost it all at my bar's poker night. I need some kind of site or game to help me get better at this dumb game. Any tips, sites, etc.?

On every hand, flop your junk onto the table and say "any takers?" You'll win all of the blinds, at least.

On a serious note, watch some of the poker tournaments they replay constantly.

That doesn't help me whatsoever!

Play with me at www.TripleJack.com

It's flash-based (no downloads) and with play money.

You can only get better through repetition.

Federwang, you can also play free games online on all sorts of different sites. Shit, even facebook has a free texas hold 'em app.

Wait a minute federwang, aren't you supposed to be a Jew? Shouldn't it be impossible for you to get swindled like that? COME ON.

I had two kings, so I bet the house. I thought I had it in the bag.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #10 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:51:37 AM »

Should have bet 1/4 of your chips preflop (most likely only guys with an Ace or 2 pair will come along). Then if an A doesn't come up on the flop, you push all in.

That's a pretty good hand, but you're always just one ace being turned over away from being fucked.

Honestly, with the game's popularity it has become increasingly harder to play in a well thought out manner, because you have people betting in illogical ways given the hands that they have. Going all in with a pair of kings isn't a bad play per se, but since people go all in all the time now with crazy shit in the pocket lots of times you'll get called on it. Never forget that it's a game of luck as well as skill, etc etc.

I might have to join you guys. Although I mostly play for fun, I'm on a damn good winning streak right now.

...I've been playing Texas Hold 'Em a bit that came w/ my vista install.

Yeeeehawwww!!!!

I have won every game for money I have ever played while not high. Which is quite a few.

Diunx · « **Reply #16 on:** March 12, 2009, 06:57:19 PM »

I pirated a game version of texas hold 'em for dummies, I should get around to play it and see if I can finally learn to play poker.

Kara · « **Reply #17 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:23:58 PM »

On XBLA's Hold 'Em I just bet all in every hand before the flop.

I have a bankroll in the negative millions.

Oh shits Green Shinobi is no longer alone in Laker-Bore

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #19 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:11:15 PM »

I made a room called "Evilbore" in the newbie section.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #20 on:** March 13, 2009, 12:21:49 AM »

Toxy jobbed me.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #21 on:** March 13, 2009, 12:26:36 AM »

I am so awful at this game.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #22 on:** March 13, 2009, 12:30:56 AM »

I'm a beast ...

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #23 on:** March 13, 2009, 01:28:33 AM »

If I knew I was unable to get fake money from ToxicAdam, I would've never bet all my earnings that last round.

I think we should do an official evilbore poker night.

Willco made me sign up. I'm xnikki118x on there.

I don't know how to play Poker, you guys. But maybe it'll be fun!

Ganhyun · « **Reply #25 on:** March 13, 2009, 12:47:38 PM »

I might make an account so Willco has someone to beatup when TA is beating up on him.

ToxicAdam · « **Reply #26 on:** March 16, 2009, 02:40:27 AM »

Hey, I beat out 76 other scrubs for a chance at a free laptop. Woohoo..
