Title: Don't tell me there's no such thing as a Doomswitch!!
Post by: AMRN on May 27, 2009, 17:02:29 PM: Cos I just don"t believe it today!!

Just opened up 4 STTs and found real live evidence of the Full Tilt Doomswitch!

First hand on table 1: raise with AK and get a caller. Flop AK2. Manage to get it all in - he shows AJ.... turn and river both Js.

First hand on table 2: get all in preflop with KK v QQ.... Q on flop

On the bubble of table 3: shove with small stack holding 88. Called by both blinds - they have 77 and 77!! board comes 23456.

Bubble +1 on table 4: raise preflop with QQ and get a caller. Flop Q74. it all goes in - he has AKs and hits a runner runner flush.

Dunno who I offended at FullTilt, but I hope they turn that switch off again soon.

(£2 in the tin.)

Post by: AMRN on May 27, 2009, 17:24:50 PM: friggin hell - out of the next three STTs in quick succession.

out 9th: AA v 78s - flop A56... he rivered a straight flush

out 9th: AK v QQ on AJ2 board all in during first round..... runner runner straight hits.

out 4th: AK v AQ all in preflop on the bubble.... Q on river.

If it"s affecting your game, log off, kick someone"s cat and then come back when you"re ready. Don"t expect the beats to stop though - it"s why we play!

Stars (although I"m starting to warm to the slightly slower blind structures on FT).

I look back at my sharkscope stats on Stars (username harrierz) and regret ever having made the transition to cash play - my bankroll died a death. Time to get it all back again through STTs.

Post by: hi_am_chris on May 27, 2009, 23:10:53 PM: I read somewhere that full tilt has the better stt structure but i agree with you i prefer starts, my sharkscope is way better on stars although my sample size ismuch smaller on full tilt, i dont like that they dont have antes in the full tilt games
