Re: Bitcointalk Poker Nights Discussion Thread (private games for btctalk members)
If by some miracle I manage to get a big stack of chips then I will leave the table for an hour and come back to play in later stages.
Is that a legit tactic?
Is this why people are going to sit out in the other tournaments, I'm playing in to learn it?
Don't do it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I am just doing it because I don't like playing these freerolls at the beginning and don't have time to grind trough first 2 hours of bad game play. I am giving it about 1% chance of working out.
For our Championship series newbies are perfectly OK. Especially, if SwC is cheeking for alt accounts and it seems you guys had some info regarding that.
Absolutely agree with you, playing a bad game is extremely annoying and almost unbearable. What I do to cope with that is I watch something on YouTube in another window, keeping an eye on the tables, but mostly not playing during the first hour and a half.
That's what I like about our series: no bad game from the very beginning. And since we have some good players among the newbies, ceehe and Jmac1551, as was mentioned above, I absolutely don't mind them playing. So, I take back my suggestion about strengthening the rules and accepting only Jr. Members and above. Let's continue playing good game, mates!
On a side note I was lucky enough to take the 9th place in the yesterday's 40 mBTC Freeroll on Sportsbet.
Don't know about you guys, but when I read "My place 9th of 149"
no matter the money, it makes me feel good.
