Ran up over $800 at Titan last night, and got called a "house shill" in the process. Basically the guy was accusing me of working for Titan to create games and they repay me by juicing my cards because according to him I always get "so $%^& lucky"....
Chuckle, Chuckle, Chortle, Chortle.
Also got called a "true studder" and not by my wife. Another 7cs player at Titan issued that decree. Both were compliments and I've certainly been called worse... well, the "house shill" wasn't meant to be a compliment, but I'll take it.
Another "goofy mistake" to add to the list that I see so often here at Titan is "coming to the table with 5 big bets." Amazing how many peeps show up with $10 at a $1/$2 limit game, then proceed to play with a shortstack mentality... you know, where rather than play good aggressive poker with good cards, they just wait on any 3 suited, or connected or maybe just 3 big cards and shove all their chips in the middle and hope for the best? Works great for me though, especially if it's heads up and they keep rebuying. :)
Don't get me wrong. Not everyone at Titan stinks. There are some fair to good players there, but most fall under the "loose aggressive" or "loose passive" columns. This is usually the case at "new" poker rooms, I think, and especially at Titan where they just very recently added 7 card stud, so you've got a lot of holdem junkies who try their hand at it, get AK3 and are like "wow, AK!" bet/raise!
I digress. Here's hoping the good run continues a bit longer.
