Absolute Poker is Heaven

zero

I just made a first time deposit because I couldnt resist that 100% bonus, and I must say this site is full of the biggest fish ever. I was going to grind out some cash, clear the bonus, then cash out forever, but if the fish keep on biting like this i might have to conitinue playing. Its like Stars, except they raise with even crappier hands and will never fold when someone hits a draw, no matter how obvious it is. This is great.

I noticed absolutists (at 0.5/1) are way too weak, and fold to the slightests pressure. I once checkraised bluffed on the flop, and won the pot. I've won lots of pots bluffing there. I've noticed I"m improving at my shorthanded play better than longhanded play. I can remember players tendencies better or something, i think. I hit my first royal flush at absolute - flopped it holding QJspades.

Added bonus as well is the fact that they offer "reload bonus" every Wed and every weekend of 15%. (used to be 20%).
So...a whoring you can go.

Good luck.

I can't believe how stupid these people are. I was afraid of being up against AA with all those re-raises, but on the river I figured that I had seen sooo many people play AK and AQ like they held AA when the didnt even hit a pair, so I decided he probably didnt have the bullets and that I should make him pay if he had A high. Was I surprised when I saw these cards...

Just wondering if you have cleared the bonus yet. Status update? I'm also very tempted to take advantage of their 100% deposit bonus as I'm still trying to build up a significant bankroll at this point.

Yea I did, it only took me 3 or 4 days because I play alot. But I decided that since the software sucks and they dont have that many people online at a time, that I was gonna cash everything out. Now I'm Ultimate Bet taking advantage of a 50% $300 bonus. If anyone wants this bonus use the code "PL50", its from pokerlistings.com

How much did you initially deposited and how much did you cash out after clearing the bonus?

I deposited the minimum $100 for the full bonus, and after four days of 1/2 I left with 290.

I thought the opportunity to play while naked was one of the advantages of playing online.


AP is one of the better places to clear a bonus as it clears in $10 increments. Many of the bonus deposit places require to clear the entire bonus at once which can take a long time. eg Pokerroom.
