Default way too tight

after playing this game awhile and listening to Daniels comments on how to play hands during the game think im playing way too tight.

like one hand I limped in with 5h7h about 3 after blinds, normally wouldnt even think about it but I guess there is times where you can limp in with those interesting hands. Well ended up flopping gutshot and flush draw and making it on turn when someone with set of queens was slowplaying.

we checked turn, (daniel told me to) and then on river he said push all in which I did and busted the set. Kinda learning alot playing this game, I dont think this will help the very experienced players like TP, shabi, jd and ZY. I know im leaving couple out but you get the idea, but think for new players this game would be good.

what game also does is show you how many MTT's you will lose before you hit the big one. Have played same tourney 4th time now and havent cashed yet but playing the hands correctly. I'm actully very glad I got this game, think it will be helpful since I think I wont be playing cash games 2 much.

but all in all the AI is very good, most AI poker games the AI never folds. I have gotten people off hands and watched the AI try to make moves. All I can say is Iam impressed

Uh yeah... I'd say that's a pretty significant boo-boo!

Sounds to me like the game isn't quite polished yet, which is surprising, considering how long it's been in development.

Default well

he may not be tightest player but he does know exactly what he is doing with those 5-7 hands. Knows about his payoffs.

and if you only enter with premiem hands dont think you will be cashing that much. I mean in a tourney you only going to get those premiem hands once and awhile and when you get them everyone is going to know.

I dont know after playing for awhile think I had the wrong idea about tournies, I gotta play them more like over a time period and not expect to get deep in everyone by playing soo tight.


sounds like good time to do some tests.

Are you telling us that you are just now realizing that you need to play non-premium hands in tourneys... thanks to a poker video game??? Do you even read any of the threads posted on this site?

knowing what to play and how to play it is two different things, yes I knew you had to play non premium hands but no I didnt really know HOW to play it.

I respect DN tourney play very much so getting the advice from him frop pre-flop to river detailing every street play is great.

I can see the appeal, but my advice would be to go read first. Then apply what you have learned and play your video game and see what Daniel says.

All the reviews I've read say the AI on this game is retarded and that DN's advice is suspect at best. I'll look for the link (it was a major video game mag) in which they said they were told to call a small preflop raise 63o. Also, I've heard it advocating flop peels w/ aboslutely hopeless hands on the flop.

Just some totally ridiculous errors.
