    Never have I ran so good but got so many coolers!

    I can't seem to get it to load. It says loading and then stops somewhere between 25 and 99%. I've got the newest flash.

    This is too bad, sounds like something that could be useful or entertaining for me. :(

    Any suggestions?

    What a first post, but I guess I needed an incentive to get going.

    I did the test twice, and I don't think it's possible to play that QQ hand profitably without getting stacked. So I hope they don't mark you down for getting stacked, in fact I'd prefer if they marked you down for NOT getting stacked.

    I think it might do this as the first time i done it i got it all in with QQ and the second time round i folded on the flop to see if it made a difference. All my other decisions were basically the same apart from some better value betting on the river with some hands and i got 4 points lower the second time round!!

    Got 117. Folded QQ pre due to running into a similar situation a few days ago. These training sites must be cleaning up, how many are there now

    With testimonies from such well known pros as Ben C 'BowDownTx' I'd say the creators of this site are rolling in it.

    was good craic though.

    Score of 125. Best part of my game is knowing the odds. Worst part is my strategic play. Obviously didn't pay enough attention to the players names :)
    Called the preflop reraise with the queens and checkfolded the flop. Don't really know why. Folded the jacks pre also.

  • Registered Users Posts: 37,512 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Wow, I got outscored by everyone and I thought I did ok, I had $4800 when the test finished, Peter Pro or whatever his name was got me with aces. Otherwise I would have done better. 94 I was given. Pathetic obviously going by the other scores but I am an online cash donk at holdem so no surprise.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    There were a few dubious hands. One that sticks out for me is the "Tricky" player who limped with K5 and called my big raise to flop two pair!

    It wasn't very tricky of him... just retarded.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,124 ✭✭✭NickyOD


    The site is complete arse. It looks a bit dated. How long has it been up and running?

    The first time I played it I scored 119. I check folded the QQ post-flop and folded the Jacks pre-flop. Not sure if either was the right play tbh. Probably not since people who stacked off scored higher.

    There were some other interesting hands like the AJ on the 3-3-9 flop where I c-bet and then CRAI on the turn which worked out.

    I stacked off against loose larry with AT after I squeezed from the BB and hit an AQJ flop. He slow-plays AQ on the flop which is pretty unusual.

    I bluffed the very last hand with 8 high after more than half the table check to me on the J-6-3 flop then Tough Tiffany raises me and I 3 bet shove with nothing. She folds.

    Most if not all of the players don't really live up to their names.

    So the second time I play it I just play like a total calling station to try and see what cards everyone was playing and a lot of the time the hands just make no sense at all. I still ended up scoring 108 and they told me they could make me $2444 more per year but when I scored 119 they could make me over $2900 more per year.

    Could anyone who buys this software please send me their online usernames.

    Thanks.

    Created in October 07 and was altered in February 08.

    You're right in saying the site looks dated though, it looks like one of those retro plain html pages from a few years ago.
    When compared to say Poker VT or the Cardrunners set up, it just comes across as though there was f*ck all money put into the site design.

    I also wouldn't be too pushed about paying for a site that cites testimonials from online players that don't even exist. Testimonials plastered all over the site in itself is cheesy and outdated, nevermind the horrific design.

    The QQ hand is a definite stacking off hand. Out of all the people on the table the "pro" (who obviously should be read as an internet cash pro, and not a Live Donkament Pro since it's an on-line Poker training site and it's a cash table) should have a looser 3-betting range especially as we'd have a VPiP of over 50 on the table with how we've been running. If he was described as Nit Nigel maybe put Pro Peter should mean he knows he should be 3-betting lighter against our LAG style.

    Id say your thinking 6 levels above the guys who made the site on that hand.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,532 ✭✭✭mormank


    lol. i went on monkey tilt half way through after a guy flopped a set against me...he played it so strangely...then i got over it only to go on tilt again later on, i mean everytime i had a hand they had a better one!! BS. i made it all back tho later on when i flopped a house with 7 3 :D

    what i learned from this-maybe i have a tilt problem!!

    @ mantlefan,

    A quick question for you:

    Do you have any affiliation to that site?

    How did you get paid off on that hand? Ive played the hand twice, first time slowly and second time fast and not got anything worth mentioning from it both times! Or maybe ur just happy that you flopped a house with 73? Anybody else get anything worth mentioning out of that hand if so how did you play it?
