Default This may be in the wrong spot but forgive me I知 new

I致e been playing live for little over 8 years now but only recently started playing online seriously. I mainly play sit and goes or tournaments and have noticed that most are basically all in fest. All I want to do is sit back and play cards not watch some donkey go all in every hand that has an Ace or King regardless of the kicker in it and win.

I guess my question is what room do yall play at, what limits, and is this how every one plays online. Don稚 get me wrong Ill play A8 and my even try to buy the pot/blinds but I see people calling two preflop raises or even going all in with much less to only suck out and then call it skill.

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, it's annoying to see people get lucky when they're playing so bad. I try to just remind myself that in the long run, they won't be winning players, and that in reality, we love having people like that at our tables. It's just hard to keep that in mind when they're winning right in front of you...

Welcome Walter,
I like playing at Titan on the micro (under a buck blinds) Limit and NLHE. It's a good place for you to start and get a feel for the online game. SnGs and Tournaments are good, but you need to have a decent bankroll to get through the inevitable slumps. Online can an All-in fest since people are playing polker like a video game. Once you start winning, then move up to the bigger dollars.

Most people play Party Poker because it is loose, lots of traffic 24hrs, fast to cash in and out, plus easy-to-earn Bonuses and monthly Re-load bonuses. I played there all last year until their BlackJack game busted me out.

Iceberg.

I believe that you can find games that aren't all-in plays by moving up in stakes. Players don't play as reckless when the stakes are alot higher. Don't get me wrong you can find serious low stake tournaments but they are quite rare to find and there always seems to be one goof in a tournament that plays nuts and doesn't play premium hands, they just push all-in.

I have tried some Titan 20+ sit and goes and found the play better then other sites in fact I took first on the 2 out of the 3 today. I also played a few freerolls for other forums and found after all the all in people get knocked out the play is pretty good.. I also play @ CD poker found it about the same

yep i'll enter a tourny and pretty much sit there for like a half hour or so just to weed out them bad players but i have noticed on several occations when i do call the all-iners i win but most of the time i see them get lucky with the dumbest cards who goes all-in with 7-3 off suit and wins i might add not me but i have been hit with that a bunch have pocket AA and some donk goes all-in with 7-3 and hits me on the river. just crazy anymore. but you diffinitly have to weed them out before good game play can take place
