Here's one of my favourite hands that I played on Party Poker's 0.50/1.00 Limit tables, where I flopped a set of 9's and got lucky to River a Boat. I was playing two tables so I did not notice the possible straight on the flop and did a couple of raises to see where I was at until I made my hand. He also did not pay attention to a possible Boat or Flush at the end and took a lickin'.

One time I saw over a $30 (after the rake) pot on Fulltilt in the $.50/$1 LHE games. Unfortunally I wasnt the winner, but there was some donk in the pot who went to the river with top pair queens and just kept calling when some other guys were capping it. I dont remeber what the winning hand was though.

don't u love limit games...BECAUSE I'M NOT..comone that's a raise..re-raise...re-re-...raise...an all in preflop would of cut our agony...

Iceberg,

I have been getting whole stacks just given to me on these Party .50/1.00 limit tables! Twice so far, I had a monster, and some moron just keeps capping all streets! I buy-in for $25, and that one hand nearly doubles me up. I wish I got the Hand History for you to see. I couldnt believe it at first. I'm thinking, what the hell is this person thinking?! Am I dreaming?

But then last night, I have A7hearts. at a 6 max table, everyone calls, I raise to get some people out, but everyone calls. Flop brings I'm small blind, so I just bet at it knowing that if my heart comes, I'm gettin paid. two fold, one calls, one folds, the moron on the button raises. Ok, so I call, and so does the other person. Turn is and I check. the first guy bets, and the fun begins... the button raises, I re-raise, first guy folds, and then the button caps it. River is blank, with no pair on board, betting is capped again, and I take home a monster!


I dont know if this is common, but if this happens alot, then I am very glad I deposited on Party.

It is pretty common. You can get some terrible bad beats, but you can also make a ton.

Getting hand histories is very, very easy. You should already have them on your C: drive. Go to the following folder and every hand history is saved.
I hope you can post that Beat.

I've made regular "Beer Money" last year and again in the last two months playing for the Re-Load Bonuses. I just made $50 from the May Re-Load (woohoo).
Good luck to you TTs.

It does, and you can make a small fortune off of it, but you have to be careful and weary of the fact that people will chase almost anything. Lost a $25 pot to a gutshot straight on the river last night, so yeah those big pots are very nice, but losing your buy-in because some moron chases ya down hurts too.
