This boggles my mind too.
“I’m sick and tired of Replay being rigged against me!”

No punchline necessary.

You are probably one that likes to preflop bet all the time. To me that means you are the idiot.
I don’t understand your post. I just pulled up your recent Hand History as of May 4, 2025, at 1pm my time and saw this.
Were you just being facetious?
Raising preflop is part of the game. It’s the players that always limp preflop and hope to see free/cheap cards that are playing sub-optimal poker.
You play your way and i will play mine. All in preflop is dumb.
There’s a world of difference between playing fit-or-fold (raising, never limping, preflop) and going all-in preflop every time. If you don’t understand the difference, that’s not a defect in MY strategy.

It often is, yes, but not always. It depends on the stacks, your hole cards, your position and Villain tendencies, just like any other situation.
I wouldn’t complain about players playing badly, though. You want other players to play badly. Don’t complain. Take their chips. All-in maniacs are among the most profitable of Villains.
Players who just want to see as many flops as possible, who want to stay in the hand as long as possible are the worst players, though, and these are the players who hate maniacs and berate their play because it prevents them from seeing flops and staying in the hand as long as possible. Good players don’t mind maniacs because they know how profitable they can be. Imagine a player who will stack off with J4o?? Wow, I want that guy at my table for sure! Don’t you?
If you allow them the option and freedom to “always limp pre-flop” and clutter your table with all of that “sub-optimal poker” and then drop by this platform and give your critique of negativity despite your not doing anything about it yourself…Interesting that you were compelled to speak in such contradictive notions.
I think you misunderstand him. He is advocating raising pre to beat the sub-optimal limpers. That’s what he advocates doing about it. He’s not complaining about limpers. He’s not complaining about maniacs. He is not contradicting anything.
Raise pre to get the limpers to fold their junk. You will avoid suckouts.
Tighten up and call when strong against maniacs. Let them have the small pots and steals while you take the big pots from them.

I can raise huge with good hands and still get sucked out on by terrible calls, it happens often. That often deters me. But he is correct that that is the intention of that strategy but people who play everything won’t be scared out. It’s up to how you want to play. Everyone has their own strategy
I want the level of play on this site to be challenging so that I understand how to play better for real money when I go to an actual casino. It bothers me how weak the players on this site are. I use my posts on the forum to try to improve the player pool. Until that happens, I’ll keep growing my bankroll by exploiting the typical weaknesses that @napkin_holder and others have highlighted.
Gl, but free online poker doesn’t simulate live poker well. Most players don’t play like it is real money and it is hard to expect them to with nothing at stake. This site is a minefield, and even the best players lose often enough due to questionable calls. But I hope things go well for ya lol.
Most players in live games don’t play like it’s real money. : P
Eh in my personal experience most players I’ve played against at a casino have been serious players. Back when I lived in Detroit cash games would be hit and miss seeing as how the dudes who owned gas stations would sit and just throw money around. But live tournaments and cash games in my area I live in now are pretty solid players. But maybe he does get better at live games from playing here. Idk.
I tried my hand at poker at the casino. real rag-tag looking lot. 2 were chatting at the table during the game an arabic type language, and the dealer said nothing. I got skinned alive. Now I am here and learning but guys keep on going all in at every hand. I followed this advise you all have posted here and won a tournament. let the all croud take the small bets. and then take em down at the end. was difficult as i am not a seasoned player. but if would have been real money I would never be able to bet the stakes i bet here. Anyway thanks again i read all your advice and apreciate it
totally agree with you.. replay does nothing about warrentless delays and what about morons that go all in 20 plus times in a row regardless of the quality of their hands
It is extremely annoying but in no limit poker going all in 20+ hands in a row isn’t against the rules. It is just something we have to deal with here.
