Biggest loser in online poker history wants to grind $16k

I start this with some pictures:

nl2 -$8792.18 -82 buy ins below EV

nl5 (notice that pt4 shows party poker nl5 as nl4) -$5943.81

nl10 -$773.92 -15 buy ins below EV

Total loss -$15509.91

This is me playing nl2, nl5 and nl10 on party poker for one year.

My history begins somewhere in same period when they started to show WSOP shows in television. I think I have played 12-13 years nows mainly NL2, some amount of NL5 and little bit of NL10 what is the biggest stake i've ever played.

I've read all Sklansk

2025 WSOP!!

I know it’s early and normally I’m not excited about WSOP this soon after but dang it, I’m itching to go back already!

I made some deep runs and cashed in 2024 but still feel unfulfilled by going home without some hardware on my wrist.

2025 is my year!!

Any thoughts on how the GG purchase might change it in 2025, if at all? I suspect it will be pretty similar to last year but with more online qualifiers, satellites, and events.

"The Pen:" Live NLHE Chat Thread

It's been about 9.5 years and 350K posts of epicness, but "It Lives, It Lives" can live no more. The OG LLSNL Chat Thread got too big for the servers to handle and had to be retired.

You can take that trip down memory lane here.

Now it is time for a new chat thread, and new epicness.

Pot bet wildly miscalculated by dealer, 5-5-10/20 5card PLO Aria

Just happened, I’m in the game:

Guy announces pot on turn, dealer says that’s 1625, Asian lady calls, then someone says that’s not right, dealer counts the pot, turns out it’s way off, pot is actually 2345.

Asian lady was already hesitant to call the 1625, and now says don’t wanna call that, can I take it back. Whole table basically agreed, but floor was close by and dealer called him over for a ruling.

Result: she can surrender the 1625, or call the full amount.

Thoughts?

1/2/10 1.1k effective, empty the clip?

Villain and hero are both professional poker players. V is aggressive.

1/2/10 1.1k effective, pay for time, $2 promotional drop only.

Hero CO Ac2c 30, bu rec (300) calls, pro straddle calls.

Flop 91 Ts8c3d x, hero 45, bu folds, straddle calls

Turn 181 Ts8c3d4h x, hero 240, v calls relatively quick, within 5 seconds

River 661 Ts8c3d4hQh, x, hero? 785 effective.

[WPT Global] Official Thread

Hi 2+2ers,

Welcome to the official WPT Global thread!

WPT Global makes poker players’ dreams come true in association with the World Poker Tour. After launching in April 2022 we’re already the second-largest online poker room in the world (ranked by PokerScout.com, based on cash game traffic).

We’re joining TwoPlusTwo to share information with you, engage with the community, and answer any questions you might have.

WPT Global is special for a few reasons:

  • The safest games, anywhere online: Our modern platform has been built from the beginning to leverage AI technology. We use this in two main ways. The first is to protect the games by detecting collusion, bot use, RTA use and other forms of cheating extremely quickly. We have the best Game Integrity tech I’ve experienced in my 19 years in the industry, and a team of around 50 people using it.
    Learn More Here


  • FairGame - Every game is a great game, guaranteed: The second way we utilise AI technology is in managing our ecology. We ensure that games are sustainable and beatable by reserving seats in every game for casual players and limiting the number of seats per table that can be occupied by experts. I’ll go into more detail on this point later, in the below FAQ, but the net result is - we have the softest cash games you’ll find online, and typical win-rates for good regs are 5-10x higher than elsewhere. (If you don't believe me, just try them and see for yourself).


  • We have had a large liquidity pool from the very beginning, especially in cash games. This is because we partnered with a couple of successful Asia-facing poker rooms to bootstrap their liquidity. Most poker startups face an enormous challenge in growing their liquidity from scratch - this solution allowed us to launch with cash games running 24/7 and it contributes to our soft player pool. Now, WPT Global is a large poker site in its own right and less dependent on the Asia liquidity, and we’re growing our games in US Dollars all the time.


  • There is enormous value on offer - our explicit aim is to pay back more to players via promotions and giveaways than any other site. Check out our current promotions here.


  • Global Spins is our unique twist on the Jackpot SNG concept, with a progressive jackpot and the lowest rake in the industry (5%).


  • As part of the World Poker Tour family, we’re the best place to qualify for WPT events around the world, like the WPT World Championship at the Wynn later this year.

[Bodog/Bovada/Ignition] Unofficial Thread

This thread is to separate the Bovada-related comments and questions from the Official Bodog Support Thread, which is there only for questions or concerns about anything Bodog-branded.

There is no official Bovada Rep at 2+2 at this time, but perhaps if discussion is effected in a civil manner, one might arrive in due course?

Thank you.

$25----->25k Bankroll Challenge on Ignition

I am going to be starting with $25 in my Ignition Account and try to spin it up to $25,000.

I will start at 5nl since it is the lowest stake on the site and be playing Ignition Reg tables only.

I will be updating every 5k hands with my progress.

My expectation for each limit is as follows:

Expected Winrates for each limit:

5NL: 30bb/100

10NL: 25bb/100

25NL: 20bb/100

50NL: 15bb/100

100NL: 12bb/100

200NL: 10bb/100

Variance will be a decent factor in a lot of these winrates but these are just ball park num

This is an exceptionally good table. Two players to my left is a VIP player, a wild younger guy who is VPIPing 100% of hands and making big mistakes post flop. In between us (on Hero's direct left) is another loose fish.

Hero is 30s WG. I am one of the tighter players at the table. I am one of the only players who has been 3betting (even though the VIP player has been open raising hands like 24o). $850 stack.

Hand reading fails me. What does this donk-barrel-call-donk line rep?

PRE -

EP limps (UTG or UTG1). He's starting out around $645-ish.

This is the main V. He's white, maybe mid 20's, just sat down with around $300-$400 maybe 2-3 orbits ago. Never seen him before this, so most likely not a reg, or at least not in this room. He won a big pot not long after he sat down, either with a big bluff that got through or hero calling a big bluff that didn't. As I'm typing this,

Can hand-reading greenlight a bluff raise facing an under-bluffed line from a battling V?

V is a MAAG. When he sat down, the player sitting next to me, with whom I'm friendly, leaned over and told me this guy is prone to going on tilt, whether he's up or down, and torching his entire stack.

Apparently anything good or bad that happens can tilt him. I've been watching and waiting for it to happen for the last six hours, but so far, it s

Tax Strategies for professional poker players in the US

I thought it would be a cool idea to start a thread for tax strategies in the US. This seems to be something that isn't really discussed that much or at least finding information on it isn't all that readily available. A lot of stuff out there is about whether you are filling as hobbyist or a professional. Most seems to be geared for the hobbyist, but not as much for the professional. It's my first year filing taxes as a poker player and it is a bit daunting.

Anyway, I thought I would tell a funny McEvoy story from way back which I'm sure he knows nothing about.
