Posted by uhhcallmi: In th past i have played a lot of live poker and was a known player in the Amsterdam-pokerscene..
Feel free to make a story here on BRM, wud luv to hear it.
Ya would love to hear some stories about the poker scenes as well always cool to learn new things always had a dream of something like that lol
Speaking of poker dreams, I had this dream once, where I won a big tourney on a wheel straight flush. Next day in a tourney, I hit the wheel with a3, didn't think he had a flush although it was possible. I called all in, he had a3, I thought split pot, but...NO...The chips went to him, I then realised he had a straight flush, the wheel. Weird or what.
------------ When I dream about poker aswell, it's like I'm not exactly playing. More like I am poker lol
I think playing in a team is cheating if they softplay against each other or if they share hands and thinks like that. But not everytime when there are players that know each other they play as team sometimes you just like to play with 1 or 2 friends on the same table, but i think that is okay if they don't do the things i mentioned above

pokerpros playing at the same table isnt proof in itself of anything. you would need to illustrate either soft-play or collusion. Sometimes i play in sng's and mobbers like GM are in the game and many times in mtt's ive had more then one mobber at a table. We dont talk about hands but we do know more about eachother then the random players and that can allow us to make harder decisions much easier.
Like in rounders when they say u need to spot the fish or u are one. Maybe they joined the game because a whale was on and like hunting predators they all stumble onto the same warm bodies. Most pros use table finders which makes this conclusion more likely to belive.
Ive always felt the bankroll pros play with are gifted or subsidezed by the site that sponsors them. Also there is a chance of the pros is the whale and the others have come to pick him clean.
