Started playing online again so if anyone plays there let me know and we can play sometime :) I go under the name buyza99. Also if you are interested making an account there to beat my azz in we can do affliate thingie! Usually sit in 10-20 dollar tournies and 25 or 50 dollar NL/PL omaha hi/lo and holdem tables.

Ok, speaking of affiliates, I play on Party (mostly 3-6 Omaha Hi and Omaha Hi/Low), here's my "deals" through them.

20% Bonus on First Deposit (http://affiliates.partypoker.com/index20100.htm) -- Ok, so that's the deal they give everyone. What happens though, if you're an affiliate, is that you get a kickback for referring people. Affiliates get kickbacks one of two ways, they either (a) get a percentage of your lifetime rake (great, for whoever got my affiliate), or (b) get a one-time-payout. The link above, shamelessly, gives me a one-time payout. There's a lot of sites out there that use their payouts to cash back to you. I've used one, and basicly, the only mistake *I* made was not using a large enough opening deposit. Party, unlike a lot of the other sites makes it pretty easy to claim your bonus cash. If you deposit $100 above, you need to play "250 raked hands" to get your $20. Well, if you just post and fold on the cheapest qualifying table, it'll cost you about $40 in blinds to make that $20. Of course, that's if you just fold. If you can afford to float $500 (the maximum upon which you can get 20%), there's pretty much $60 in free money for a short-term loan -- and that's if you just fold. You can do much better, or much MUCH worse by actually playing :) [Party counts a hand as "raked" if ANYONE pays the rake, not just you. Other sites count times YOU pay the rake. Caveat emptor.]

So, the affiliate, ME, gets paid for referring you. In exchange, they give me the deals you see at most websites: Free PartyPoker.com Million Entry with First Deposit (http://affiliates.partypoker.com/index0ppm.htm), $25 Extra on First Deposit (http://affiliates.partypoker.com/index025.htm) or the 20% you see above. If you want to cash out and run after playing your minimum games for minimum investment, the $25 deal is, well, more than the $20 you get on the hundred. And, the same deal here. I'm a greedy S.O.B., but I'm not a heartless greedy S.O.B, so, if someone does decide to sign up through me, let me know and I'll toss 'ya back $30 through Paypal after I get paid out :)

So, yeah, I'm The Palimax on Party, and if you want to plan a night for a private table, I'll gladly schedule something -- just as long as enough of us are playing.

And, finally, look, if you sign up for Party, for god's sake, use SOMEONE's affiliate link.

What time you usually play at palimax? I'll play 3/6 omaha hi/low with you, even though I prefer PL.

Evenings. Just IM me through the board.

I prefer pokerstars, they have better tourney options, not too mention PP's Sit N go's start you out with t800 chips, and brutal blind set up. Instead of timed blinds its like every 10 hands dealt or some nonsense. I can make money on em, but its more of a rollercoaster ride then I prefer.

Lots of fishies at the NL tables and 2/4, 3/6 + tables, but that of course means more suck outs. Thats about all I really play on PP, and thats only if I got a freeroll on PP, if I have the option i transfer the cash too PS.

But I am a sit n go/tourney player so i stick with PS. 1500 starting chips and a more chilled out blind structure. I play 3 tables at once, stay away from the turbo tables(might aswell be a PP SNG). I have been playing casually a few years, have really lengthy logs, and a nice 42% in the money rate on PS(compared too 36% on PP).

Anyways, good luck fellers.

I like partypoker tournies, I do well on them cause I play very aggressive. I do not like how pokerstars looks, for some reason I really like partypoker layout/structure. Even though you get WAY more suckouts, I just play EXTREMELY tight on the NL tables. I lost an 80 dollar pot today because I figured with a 15 dollar raise on my pocket aces only big hands would call. Flop came K 2 3, I bet 5. He calls. Turn is a 6. He goes all in, I call. He makes a straight...4 5 offsuit. I was mind blown that someone called 15 dollars preflop with 4 5, especially when he said "it's my favorite hand". Anyways someone come play with me.

Buyza, sorry, I got your email pretty late that night. I couldn't play.

I've decided that Party's 3/6 Omaha Hi is the loosest game on the internet. Now, sure, a loose game has plenty of bad beats to be served up, but, man, Omaha-Hi with 6-7 people seeing the flop nearly every hand in 8 handed play?

Remember, this is Omaha High:

I should host some of the pics I have, I made some disgusting bad beats on people. Hit two quads, runner runner'd a boat on a guys flush, hit a wheel straight flush and more lol. Only problem was I lost about 2/3 my stack in omaha hi/lo PL 100 dollar table with A 2 A K double suited. I raised 22 preflop. Flop came 8 6 K...two hearts (I have nuts draw for low and flush draw as well as kings). I called a 10 dollar bet. Turn is another king. So now I have top set A kicker, nut flush draw, nut low draw. Guy raises all in (pot) of about 82. I call. River is a 10 (not the right suite). He shows 7 9 A 3.... I almost lost it knowing he called 22 preflop with that and was raising on a non nut low draw and a straight draw.

Speaking of bad beats, I went to a texas hold em room in a casino in canada which had a pot if you had a bad beat. There has only been 5 bad beat winners since the casino has open and I have been there for 3 of them, and I live in california! Man sitting at a table and the table next to you goes crazy and some guys wins 20k for losing a hand. The rest of the table got like a grand. Man, what luck. Couple days before that some guy won like 40k in a bad beat. One of these days I tell ya...

My brick and mortar casino features a bad-beat jackpot. For Hold'em, it's aces full of 10's beat by four of a kind or better (both cards must play). With 50 tables going during "busy" hours, and even 5-10 tables going overnights, it gets hit pretty much every couple of days - sometimes going a week or two - rarely going longer.

I'm playin' a little $.50 / $1 tonight to make a little free RELOAD BONUS money (20% deal) tonight if you get bored.
