I had Q high flush and he had 2 pair. Isn't that 4 outs on the river?

In fact I feel exactly the same way. And I'm also trying to lay off the poker for a while (which is hard, since I have a gambling problem, and I have too much free time). Hopefully I'll last a week or two without poker.I also lack the discipline to stay within a BR, to play the games that I can't afford to play (money or skill-wise), and I lack this same discipline both in my life and work (I daytrade for a living, so it's pretty much the same). So I wish you the best of luck and hope the little trip away from poker will be good for you. I also understand what you mean about hating the grind.

Hi,was wondering if anyone knew what poker room would be best for finding stud hi/lo sngs. I play on party once in a while, but the highest table that ever gets filled is 30+3, and it doesnt fill up that often to begin with. The payouts are 120/72/48 (coz there are only 8 ppl), which is really not worth my time, but I do enjoy stud hi/lo sngs. Suggestions therefore are welcome.Thanks

I withdrew 2k, and then had an unbelievable run of cards and dropped 4k. In NL I was always holding second best hand, in limit the fish would keep capping me and then catching rivers with their dominated hands.Then I put back 100 to fool around with and got an really good run of cards. Made back 150. Not quite 4k. I think this is true of party, but I don't know about other sites. I've had this happen (and a couple of my friends swear to it too) more than once. Also, I think party is inherently streaky (more so than the laws of poker would suggest I think), and the key is to realize as soon as

10 minutes or so and 14 "replies"none to the original poker question of interestso Nikki, how many copies of pics and resumes do I need and who do I send them to?Marion, I'm a world traveller, I don't root for any "hometown teams" per se. I don't have a favorite hockey team. Perhaps you would like to have dinner and convince me to root for the leafs?

Hi,Been reading the forum for a while, only finally bothered to contribute. Noticed a couple of the regulars are from Cambridge/Boston. Me too.A lot of people on here seem to play the lower limits. I personally can be found playing on party at the 15/30 limit tables or the 5/10 1000NL tables. But regardless of the stakes it seems that most of us agree that the games are beatable. I was wondering what people thought about staking or being staked, to play online at some low limits (3/6 5/10) limit holdem, where the backer also gets the rakeback from signing the guy up under affiliate programs.
