Which sites allow American and Euro players?
Anyone out there familiar enough with running Bros through an emulator that they could talk me through setting up a hud and getting pt4 working?
ACR, I think BetOnline

i assume you are already using bluestacks? I don’t hud as i only play ofc and plo8 but have used bluestacks to play it on computer with no issue.
Just funded it today so I’ve only played from phone. Going to attempt using emulator tomorrow. I’m 100% convinced it’s a Ponzi scheme but 🤷 games look incredible
Saw an article saying Vegas will only allow 4 max poker when they open back up.
Poker is dead.
There is no point in opening poker rooms or table games yet. Plenty of rooms will close permanently.
Trying to multi quote on the phone- McLovin you are correct he had JJ. I paid it off.
NBZ- thanks for the analysis. I think you’ve said you play professionally. I only play like 200 hours a year live at 1/2 (500 max) or 2/5 (1k). So the breakdown is much appreciated.
I’m at another final table
damn im good
O8 4$ buy-in
come at me, bros

My buddy who is not a poker player was playing on Global so I thought I would watch for a bit and check out the games. It was 4/8 with a max buy in of 160 or something (weird) but people were just spazzing out and shipping money. A guy lost 7 buy in ins the 30 minutes I was watching. Has anyone tried Global?
Brag: I just won my first tournament since Black Friday.
Beat: For a whopping $3.44
Variance: PLO
I max late-regged this when I saw there were 12 players left and 9 spots paying, then played straightforward tight strategy in the background until it got to the final table. I’m still getting used to playing online. I don’t enjoy it. I have problems psychologically profiling online players, which is how I make my money live. I miss being able to put people on very narrow ranges.

What site? Have you had any trouble getting money off?
I am playing small stakes on ACR. Haven’t tried to take money off. I’m more experimenting and practicing rather than trying to make money right now.

Anyone else been playing Sunday Bovada tourneys? I’ve played the 250k and 40k turbo the last few weeks. Games are super soft it seems but I’m running like dog shit. Onward to another day!

I feel like my c bets are getting played back on too frequently. I guess the delayed c bet is something I should do more?
$2/$2 PLOL live, $5 straddle here, $500 effective.
This hand happened ~8 months ago.
I’m in BB and complete, straddle checks option, 4 to flop.
I lead pot ($20), straddle folds, unknown young Asian in MP calls (new to table within 3 hands), button calls. I have no reads on villain.
Turn I check, villain bets 75% pot ($60), button folds, I call.
River I lead 75% ($150), villain thinks for 15 seconds, checks his hand, makes a 
/whatever face and jams. $500 in middle and ~$250 more to me. His all in raise is a bit more than a minraise.
What is villain’s range? What’s the worst hand you’re calling with?
Villain’s line is a little sketchy. Straight flush is the only hand that makes sense, 3/4 potting turn with a set or 2pair is too ambitious either as a bluff or value. Small stakes live PLO is indeed a joke, but people mainly get out of line preflop and with weak draws postflop, you don’t generally see loose jams over river bets intending to move people off boats. Hopefully your river range is in fact just boats+ here, betting anything else is really bad. So you’re a bit torn between villain’s line not making sense and wanting to look him up with everything, and the simple fact that people don’t bluff a lot here and we’re toast with basically everything. I’m splitting the difference, and calling with with my good boats (A7 and better, and just folding the rest).
Given the size of the raise, it feels super unlikely that this is a bluff. Villain could easily just call, so it feels like a value raise. Additionally, hero’s bet represents at least a full house, so raising has a reasonable expectation of getting called.
The “whatever face” could mean several things. It could be hollywooding to earn a call. It could mean he thinks he is supposed to raise but doesn’t like it. It could mean the raise is for thin value and he was trying to decide if it was worth it. It could mean you are just bad at reading Asian body language.
Scenario 1 is quads/straight flush. Scenario 2 is going to be aces full or jacks full. Scenario 3 is going to be A7 or better.
Working backwards to the turn, with the button behind, hands that villain can comfortably bet are a straight flush and hands containing the ace of spades, whether as a naked ace bluff or as value bet with a flush. Maybe a non-nut flush.
A straight flush is definitely within his range. Aces full seems unlikely, because villain didn’t raise either pre-flop or on the flop, but isn’t impossible. Quads or jacks full would either need the ace of spades or a flush to go with it.
I’m leaning towards the idea that hero should be bet/calling aces full or better on the river and shouldn’t be betting smaller full houses, at least not for that sizing, without more of a read.
Thank you both, and I agree with this in particular:
River bet sizing was terrible. I wish I would have bet 25%-33% pot on river, then folded to a raise; or checked and called up to 66% (?) bet from villain.
I had JJxx and decided:
- It is possible but unlikely he has AA due to not opening it pre and not raising flop
- He isn’t value raising a worse full house, with the exception of maybe AsXs7xXx
- 77xx is in his range but at the lower end due to turn 75% bet (unless it’s AsXs7x7x)
- As9s10sX is very likely, as well as 9s10sXX being slightly less likely
I did end up folding.
