action checked all the way to the river and the pot was like $3. I thought if I went all in out of nowhere someone might call thinking I was a fish trying to bluff and it worked

I will start. The first thing I would tell them is to understand just how beatable low stakes live cash games like 1/2, 1/3 and even 2/5 are. Convince them! Then I'd advise them to learn everything they can about becoming a solid TAG (Tight Agressive) player.
Funny breakdown from the degen himself. Also says hes down $130k in make up with Dnegs and that he dropped him? Great video regarless

I designed and built this table as a gift for a friend a few years back. I've had so many requests to build more that I finally took the leap and created a company and figured out a way to make these at small scale, but still keep each one custom for the owner.
This is a different approach than the vinyl oval racetracks. It's an heirloom piece of furniture with a corresponding price tag. I understand this is a niche product to begin with, but I'm curious what might make you purchase something like this over the more standard tables on the market. Or maybe the price point just makes it unrealistic?
For context, this will start at a limited edition price of $9K and eventually land at a standard price of $12K down the road.
EDIT: Thank you all for the feedback. Some (not all) of the potential issues raised are answered on the web site.

Person to which I did not want to mention poker: “How did you meet?”
Me: “At a social function.”
Person: “Oh, what sort of social function?”
Me: “Umm, kind of like a round table event… thing.”
Not the smoothest, but not the worst IMO.

Eff. Starting stack ~1500
I have played with Villain before, he mostly seems like he hates live. He has his headphones in and doesn't talk to anyone.
He is in MP and limps. He has red chips but limps with a green chip. I didn't hear him saying anything and ask the dealer how much. Dealer confirms it's 5. I am not sure if he wanted to limp or raise, since I haven't seen him limp much before and he had red chips.
Anyway, I have Kh Jh and raise to 25 in the CO. It folds around to villain and he calls.
Flop Kc Tc 5d
He leads for 25 and I call.
Turn Ks
He leads for 100 and I call.
River 4d
He pretty quickly grabs 500 in black chips and throws them in. He grabbed them so quick that I doubt he knew if he took 400, 500 or 600. I think over bets on the river are usually for value, but i wonder if he doesn't think I would raise a king on the turn, and now bluffs the river with flush or straight draws. Over bet bluffs on the river are not exactly common in this game. I think about it for a good while. I pick my cards up and say, I do have a king. When I said that and picked my cards up he puts a tipping chip on the cards and is ready to slide them in as soon as i fold.
In general, when players do that, do you think they have more value or bluffs? I don't beat any value, unless he value bets a ten. I don't think he would limp or raise, if that was his intention, K9 suited.

I'm really curious. Do poker players play fantasy football? What percent of players crossover and do both you think? This highstakes draft got me thinking that maybe some of these fantasy footballers are actually poker gamblers as well.

Anyone ever randomly receive money on CoinPoker? Got $250, all it says is "balance credited" with a reference number and a timestamp. I'm not complaining obviously, just curious where it could have come from and why.

I've seen a bunch of posts already about the high stakes madness yesterday including the 4.2 million pot between wass and texas mike but I have something I wanna put up for discussion
one comment on youtube was saying it's the best televised poker of all time and I tend to agree https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnbNGqWQHqU
I only got into poker like 3 years ago, so i haven't been around for the "glory days" - anyone who is around for longer and knows more than me, where does this rank in terms of all time high stakes sessions?
r/poker • u/Outrageous_Length975 • 4h ago
I play microstakes SNG NLHE. Usually 6-max $5 buy-in, but occasionally higher or lower. They just limp. Everything.
J4o from UTG? 1bb
AA from HJ? 1bb
J9s from CO? 1bb
83o from BTN? 1bb
KQs from SB? 1bb
Oh, you opened 3bb with AQo from HJ? Call. Call. Call. Someone pairs the flop with their K2o and donks.
Limp. Limp. I raise 5bb from BTN. Call. Call. Call. Call. Wtf?
"Just tighten your range and open bigger." Cool, thanks. This isn't a cash game, it's a single table tournament. You're left unable to put anyone on a range when they limp-call AA and J8o.

Like, let's say, hypothetically, villain goes all-in after the river card is dealt, and I only have around $200 remaining while villain has multiple stacks of green and black chips. It's blatantly obvious to everyone that villain's stack covers my stack, but I just want to waste everyone's time by forcing the dealer to count out his chips, so I demand that the dealer counts his chips. According to the rules at that casino, the dealer must count out villain's chips because villain went all-in, even though it's obvious that villain covers.
So I asked for a count, for the sole purpose of wasting everyone's time. After the dealer spent multiple minutes counting out villain's chips, I waited another 15 minutes until somebody called the clock, but the floor manager was busy handling a dispute at another table and they had to wait another 5 minutes for the floor to come over and clock me. When the floor manager finally came over, he gave me 2 minutes to act, and I waited until the very last second before I flicked in the call. Villain then flips over a set of aces. And I show him the nut flush and scoop up the pot. I immediately pack up my chips and tell them that I gotta go, before taking them to the cashier to cash out.
So, let me ask y'all redditors, am I the asshole?

I think it is better a course that improves is with updated videos on the META constantly but i wanna know your opinion on this.

I was playing a $30k guaranteed poker tournament (online via MGM). Around 40-50 people started, I finished 9th.
I Busted via a fat finger move, and think they need to change the UI so fold doesn’t have a raise button above it.
I had KK with about 1/5th of my chips in the middle preflop. Three people called my preflop raise in position.
Board: AQJ all diamonds. I have no diamonds and 2 people in the pot. I immediately knew I was or would be beat.
1st fella made a healthy bet (figured A-K or A-Q one a diamond) second guy calls (put him on a similar hand or high pair w diamond)
I go to hit fold and accidentally hit raise 1/3rd of the pot which put me more or less all in. It was a snap fold so i went to hit it fast.
The button to raise 1/3rd is right above fold. Is this a good design?
There should be NO RAISE vbutton near fold, imo.
What do you think?
Thx

I was so excited when I saw that flop. cutoff was putting in bets and I thought there’s one single hand that beats me he’s gotta just have a 10. FML

Playing 1/2 live, 300 effective
UTG strdl $5, MP calls, I raise to 15 with AKcc from the HJ, Btn raises 45, Cutoff calls. This is an easy 4 bet spot but Im not gonna lie I had felt I miss played a couple hands that session and was a little off my game, when that happens I often start playing passive, it's the closest I get to going "on tilt" but anyway I decide to just flat the 45 and go 3 ways to a flop
Flop(135) As5s2s, cutoff and I check, BTN checks back.
Turn(135) 7c, cutoff and I check again, BTN bets 35, cutoff folds, I call
River (205) 9d, I check, BTN all in for 219...
Easy call? What hands could he have? He checked back the flop after 3 betting on a montone board, no way he flopped a flush right?
