Free Lunch anyone ?

Shining a little light on the old myth that there is nothing you can get for free, bla bla bla..

There is very such thing as a free lunch.. I got so many free tickets from party poker including several random $22 tickets.. obviously no wager requirements..

Also at one time I got a $100 usd cash bonus from party poker 3 days in a row.. yes 3 $100 free cash bonus no restrictions no wagering requirements whatsoever.. I withdrew $200 of the free money before even attempting to even try playing with it..

Also pokerstars just randomly gave me and a friend $50 worth of free poker tickets a couple days before new years. Which is odd for stars to actually give something of value and both of us have not played there in a very long time.. also party casino scratch card where I got 3 $100 usd free cash 3 days in a row, same thing.. I never put money on that site in forever and only deposited maybe $100 lifetime on that site..

Playing with QQ

Gentlemen, several times I have read about how to play aggressively with QQ, especially in tournaments, including, I posted a hand with QQ a while ago, in which I bet, and received 3-bet, and i called. A totally unfavorable flop for me on which I folded.

Many at the time opined on going all in pre flop, and the reason was because I had a very “strong” hand.

I’ve been playing often, and I could see that usually when you get the 3-bet, the villain is always ahead, as much as nothing threatening appears on the flop.

Today I received qq once again, and received a 3-bet, I increased again and the villain was all in, and I was sure I was losing my hand, but even so I called, precisely taking into account some arguments in what I have read, both in the community, as in strategy articles.

Remember Draw!

I just realised that when I started playing poker it was Draw. Does anyone play remember Draw?

That was a game of understanding the odds, even before you invested any chips in the hand.

A slower game, for smaller table numbers, and one where bluffing and poker play really mattered.

Doyle Brunson once said Hold ’em was the Rolls Royce of poker games, I’m trying to think of a car for Draw poker. I think a transit van, big and slow and difficult to drive but really very enjoyable.

Do you change your style?

Do you change the way you play online when you jump from Cash type game to a MTT or a SNG. I dont see much difference other than the ICM makes you play super tighter. But ultimatly it feels like i play the same on all three different game styles. Good thoughts maybe i can learn something.

Is there a way to win every game.

Playing cash i feel like you can always win if just focus and dont play scared. Tourneys/SNG on the other hand i used to believe that there is a way to win every game. In hindsight i notice there are key moments when your decision, had you chosen the opposite and the option did cross your mind, changed the outcome of your run. Say you didnt trust your gut when you were on the button and a 15Bigs stack shoved and you had every reason to call with a suited ace 8 but you didnt. Another opponent calls and they both have pocket pairs and you hit your ace on the flop and the shover wins the pot. then you get it all in with that same opponent later in the game and you have him with aces to his kings…only to have him hit the king and knock you out on the bubble. IDK What do you think do you see moments like that? Do you think we can truely win every game?
