Poker Options

So come on, who rocks the table either online or in person? What's your game (Hold'em, 7 Card Draw?), where do you play, what stakes etc etc. What's the story?

I've not been playing for the longest time, so my stakes are still fairly modest at the moment, but I love Texas Hold'em. I started plying my trade at PitbullPoker.com (a good, simple site), but have since moved onto Pokerstars.

How about you guys?

Doing really well lately, I think my game is coming on in leaps and bounds. The best (and my favourite) play I made today was predicting a player's all in bet was garbage. It was during a $5 Double or Nothing tournament, and he'd just taken a big beat, down to something like $200 with the big blind at the same figure. I predicted that, pissed off from his good hand being defeated and nosediving his stash, if he went all in it was going to be with nothing special. I had pocket 8s at the time. He went all in with his measly sum so I, sat with a decent stack, threw in a big amount, like $800. This made everybody else fold, which was exactly what I wanted. I wagered my 8s would be better than whatever he'd thrown in with, so to make sure it was my decent hand versus his crap, I scared the rest off. I won the hand, knocking him out and taking me closer to victory overall. And I did win overall, as well.

Awesome!
