No Limit Texas hold ‘em

No Limit Texas hold ‘emI’ve learned that Fixed Limit Poker at low stakes is a tight game. There is no room for frequent bluffing, although bluffing can be fun when you use it rarely and when you feel (opponents are checking instead of betting for ex, or when they think too much before calling or even raising) that your opponents don’t have strong cards.




Today I’ve tried to taste the smell of No Limit Poker at fun tables at Absolute Poker. Hmmm, my first thaught was: “Those people are crazy”. How can you go All In from the very beginning without seeing the flop with a J and 6 ??? Have a look at the screenshot below, RUBENATERS lost all his money after two or three rounds when he entered with $2,000 fun money. Such kamikaze just whips off the pleasure of the game.

Crazy Kamikaze (All in with J and 6)

I was amazed to see numbers from the Average Pot column in the table of games!!! Around $2,000 for 5/10 NL in fun games. But I settled down when I checked the pot size in real games: $100 for 5/10 NL and $6 for $0.10/$0.25 NL.

It was a fun to go from $1,000 to $2,000 in a few rounds … and lose all your money after that :)

P.S. … and yes, I’m tired to close those popups. I wonder: what if I’ll sign-up using the deposit bonus code and start to clear it. Will the “$500 bonus” popup disappear?
