Merry Xmas Mates,
Well the day is finally here. Thank God it will soon be over for another year. I am currently playing poker on both Pokerstars and FullTilt at the same time. Players are being somewhat polite right now but it will not last after today im sure of that.
Good luck to you at the tables and may your holiday be a pleasant one.

Merry Cristmas to all of you again. Yesterday was a busy day, even for connecting to the internet. Sneaked at some point to check a few things like email, and it was about five minutes the whole thing, be fore everyone started yelling So even even there was a good game on, no chance of participating.

G'day Mate well it saddens me to say "No" some players lost it and went on tilt and there true rudeness came storming on in on a full tilt boggy fest. It is amazing how when someone gets caught trying to bluff they blame the player who made the correct call for there stupid arse attempt to bluff. I mean if you got noting and I been betting all along, should you not think that perhaps I actually got something in my hand that im playing. I am NOT known for bluffing and in fact when I was first taught to play I was told to only bluff one hand every three hours. This little gem of a rule has made me so much money over the decades because people who bluff alot always think everyone else does too. When they call you and you got the cards they are always in shock and baring a suck out they pay you off

G'day Macubass
I only play No Limit Texas Holdem. It is me personal game of choice. I do know how to play other games well but I just prefer NL Holdem. I will occationaly play a little Omaha Hi/Lo, but only when I just want to have a little fun and mix things up a bit
I wish you well and hope you holiday has been a GREAT one. Be cool and luck too you in 2013.

I don’t know if it was your opponents who were being polite or it was just you, because of all the spirit that involves this season, that was looking in a different way to the action in the game you’re playing. That’s possible to happen.

Posted by Macubaas: And what no limit texas holdem gamer are you playing, i mean do you play cash, sng or tournaments?
On pokerstars i already know that you are playing tournaments, is the same situation on full tilt?
G'day mate I like to play MTT's but I have been playing a lot of 0.10/0.25 Euro tables too. I dont like to waste my time on the freeroll donkfest. I do not even care about the leader board points race as there are to many playing the freerolls to get any type of good consistent results. Too many idiots chasing anything all the way to the river and sucking out win after win. I mean most of them do not seem to understand what a check raise means let alone a 4 bet on the flop followed up by another on the turn.
So even even there was a good game on, no chance
