NetBet had been down for almost 12 hours until a few hours ago. It was due to an unexpected emergency, according to NetBet's twitter page. I couldn't play live dealer Baccarat, one of my favorite games. Baccarat dealers are much classier than those at other gaming tables!

Well, here in Argentina the poker´s room was running without any problem. I played some freerolls and all was fine. A continental problem, don´t you think? Baccarat, I don´t know this game Tony_MON7ANA. The sound of his name is seem like some casino table where are playing James Bond. Be carefull with the Bond´s gadget!!

Baccarat is a very popular game especialy in asia. Many players are playing there this game, and the bets are big. If you ever find a table with any chinese people playing baccarat, stay there and watch They love this game.

It is strange what happens to these poker rooms. In some countries it falls and you lose all the money you invested in tournaments, sit and go or other and you do not receive any compensation and in other countries it works perfectly. Fcuk this because two or three days ago i playing satellites and the 888 network has fallen. I lost everything afer one hour, as i expected to come back online. Very bad but i lost not so much money. Only $ 1.30 - $ 1.50.

It might have been a regional issue, maragatero.
I guess Baccarat has become as popular as Blackjack or Roulette. No casino table game has drastically increased in popularity as much as Baccarat over the past few decades.

Maybe a new popular game, but don´t you have to wear a black smoking and sun glasses for play it? you have to drink a Martini agitated not stirred? The most important thing is: there you can get a 007 card? It could be usefull for play against some villain, don´t you think?
And CALICUL my friend I have some problems with 888poker conections, it´s true, but here we are claim to Net Bet Poker. The complaints are similar but not the same

Not everyone is playing this game Baccarat. Is a fairly complex game with precise rules. If you want to play this game you have to learn the rules first. Baccarat has few versions of the game. I do not know if you will be happy with this game my friend. Most casinos offer a version of the baccarat game and you can play but learn the rules.

You're right, maragatero! You can be anything you want to be and do anything you want to do as long as you don't break the rules of the game at Baccarat table. Baccarat is a game with a relatively low variance. Some casinos allow a player to bet a minimum of $1 or $2, which is perfect for cheapskates like me.

My friend, you will have the age that you allow have. If you limits your interest, and leave your proyects, you only have death in your horizont. I want to be curious at the last day of my life. Curiousity is an energy that you need in your life, the ambition of make money is a disease. Leave the money in his way and take the curiousity with your better kindness!

Hahaha yes vaci38, its seem like that. But are only phrases, common places of philosophy of the new age...but I really believe in them! I try for every way that I have to give to my daughter and me the best life that I can. But I don´t leave my curiousity in the path. I need some time to reset my mind and open it for new things

Maragatero, my mobster friend, all the secrets of poker texas holdem is very hard to learn, if you do not have a book in Spanish language about these strategies. It's hard to learn but if you succeed, you will also be able to make money with losers. Good luck with that.

CALICUL my friend i think that poker strategies are a good thing only if you play live poker on some big tournament Online poker is quite different and I think you need to have a lot of luck here and the other thing is the software it's on your side

Thanks for you wishes CALICUL I hope I´ll can learn a bit of them, only for win to a half of fishes! And yes, it´s hard to learn if you have to read in english! I found some spanish writer, and some translator of big english writer. I only need some quiet place and a bit of time for read it. And vaci38, you have the reason, the poker online is too diferent to the live poker, but the structure of thing that you have to know is the same

You are partially right, Vaci my friend and online poker is changing from what it was a couple of years ago. In both situations you need a strategy, for online or live poker of course, needed tactics and skills with many strategy and luck. In this situation i speak about online poker because Maragatero is not playing live poker. He needs to learn a little strategy or more, same like me or like you, because these things help with cash games or tournaments with blinds to 10-20 minutes.

Here's one example that happened to me several times, in one month and played 50 free roll tournaments I lost 10 times with AA I'm talking about online poker If I played live poker I think I would win 90% of such situations maybe i would lose only 1 or maximum 2 times only in one day I lost 3 times with AA

I know what it is like to lose in this situation and it is very ugly but of cours AA is one pair and in freerolls game players call with everything. On real money if you play A A properly chances are less to lose. Even last night i saw a Canadian who played badly A A ( he just paid normal blind no raise ) and big blind player haved 3 4 . Flop 2 5 and turn 6. All in and AA lose. Anyway, these all in are many in 888poker but chances to win are too low Very rarely you earn 10, 20 dollars or more.
you're tired of playing 
Of course you've learned all the secret of 
Very rarely you earn 10, 20 dollars or more.
