Well I played that 2 day on PSO and made day 2. The standard of play shocked me as being totally pants, must be all the post xmas rush thats brought a load of fish to the site. I didn't see too many old faces there, everyone was new.

I played a multi at PSO today. My first for a month at least. OK, it was one of those PSO$500 added tourneys, but still the standard of play was awful. Two or three players were calling all ins on the final table with crap like Q5suited. Quite what they expect to achieve if they play like that all the time I don't know.

SOme guy joined my table with a 150k stack with 20 left. He went out 11th. He was directly to my right and called down every bet I made on flops after he'd called my BB. He also lost a 100k pot after calling a pre-flop raise with 94s.

Can someone post a jargon-buster?

[retired_roxy]

BB = Big blind
SB = Small blind
Button = Dealer button, last to act in each round of betting post flop
Cutoff = to the right of the button
UTG = Under the gun, person to the left of the big blind.

Multi/MTT = Multi table tourney
STT/Sng = Single table tourney
ring game = played with real money as chips, join and leave when you want.

Is that slightly better?

I think we should all post our usernames on whichever sites we use before the first page ends.

[retired_roxy]

Name: DeafParrot
Username: DeafParrot, everywhere.

Easy enough

Also BB can stand for big bets, which is the value of a bet on the turn and river in limit.

[san]

Name: San
Usernames: San, sansan, sansansan, sansan81, santheman*

*and various other variations on a theme...eaasy enough really.

Mine are (I think):

Pokerpages: Rynaldo (wife is Funster)
Ladbrokes: Ryno
Pokerstars: Rynaldo
Bet365: Rynaldo or Ryno I think
VC Poker: Funster

WPX: Rynaldo

I think that's about it.
