    In your opinion, who are the best poker players on SBR?

    Give me 5. Cash/Ring and or Tourny. I have a good feel on a few, but I don't play that much.

    Also what do you think the SBR Poker equates to. Ie: 5nl online, 1/2 at a casino? I Will give my humble opinion after a few posts...even tho the better players probably don't want to be named.


    No wrong answers here guys, it's all good

    Haven't played enough to rank individuals here but overall SBR poker plays something like the .25-.50 NL game at the old bills gamblin hall on the strip, where they made you pay the big blind with a Kennedy 50 cent piece and the small with a quarter. And that was 2010.

    Best players...

    Jedi - Probably the best overall player on the site. Most of us (like me) pick a niche and try to excel at it...but he's either above average or good at nearly all facets...cash, sng, mtt, turbos, you name it.

    Ian - Not sure if he plays anymore. Always respected his opinion. Most of us are wannabe pro's. He's actually a pro who posts on the board.

    Non tilted TheCentaur - When he's not tilted, he's one of the better cash game players on the board. He balances his range, is aggressive, doesn't put himself in too many bad spots, and doesn't have any noticeable tells. People get to him and get him get off his game...which leads me to...

    Best Meta-Game player - BiteMe. Plays like a bomb on SBR. Has the ability to adjust to different style of players at the table. Subtly needles players and throws them off their game. This is obvious by the countless threads made about him.

    Lowly Oaftard - A big nit bag mascarading as a loose player. He's figured out the rig, so that's worth something.

    Others...

    Rudy formidable esp at smaller tables.
    Sin - SBR tournaments cater perfect to his style. Knows push/fold ranges very well.
    ShogunRa, SharpAngles, the guy with the puff daddy avatar & SharkAA - haven't played much with them but they seem to be sharp

    Sure I'm forgetting several others. I think SBR poker equates to about 5NL online...maybe 2NL. 1/2 at a casino is stronger. The field definitely is sharper in tournaments (particularly our 30-45 player turbo sng) than other categories. The field actually isn't that bad at those, esp compared to ring/cash.

    Bite - Great at ring games.

    Shogun - I've only played him in tourneys, but guy usually makes the right moves.

    Tripple - RIGGED

    Arun - Great tourney player.

    Sin

    Jedi - SBR Tourney PRO

    For tourneys there are a good number of good players, but it's hard to separate an impression/gut feeling from the high variance of the format and infrequency of how often you play against any particular person. Most of the guys posted here I agree with.

    For ring games, the list is a bit smaller. Non-tilted centy, loaftard, bite (who's probably best here at adjusting/generally playing back, coupled with a absolute gift for getting under people's skin if they give him an opening) good for ring. Rudy, Donk, and sin dangerous as well, if you don't adjust to them properly or if you're short handed. Bobbo doesn't strike me as all that good, but I don't think I've ever seen him lose a hand at a holdem ring game either, so who knows....maybe he's just a pro who chooses to focus his time on other sites he's more profitable on, like Zynga poker

    Jedimindpicks and Beerdog have tricked me into paying them off more times than I am happy with.

    Biteme always seems to be way ahead anytime I see him playing ring games.

    Hard to say at the moment (been drinking tonight), but I'll do my best.

    Tournament:

    Jedi
    Sin
    Smitch
    Arunsh
    Jake
    Bobby
    Beerdog
    HHSilver

    Cash:

    Biter
    Hockey
    Rudy
    Bosco
    Triple
    Zachary

    Few others I think are good that I left off because of limited play with them. I know I'm forgetting other good players as well, but that's the best I can do right now.

    Can only mean you mean bobbyfk or another bobby besides waves...or you got really wasted last night!

    Forgot about bosco...fun guy to play against, and not as easy to get chips out of as you'd think at first glance.

    I think the 2/4 and up NL tables on here are significantly better than 1/2 NL in Vegas at Harrah's or Bally's

    I do think even though this is penny poker the level of play on here is better than a lot of live casino poker

    I generally agree, but it has more to do with who's playing (and the fact that most of the playing at higher limits here is by good players). The guys who will regularly sit at ring games beyond just rolling over are generally pretty good...definitely better than 1/2 live, probably somewhere between NL50 and NL100 online.

    you in cash? my experience with you is you sit out every other hand or so, play maybe one hand in three, then leave the table entirely, sit back down five mins later, play maybe a hand, fold two more, sit out.... repeat process........ i don't think i've ever seen you in a big pot......

    i guess the more relevant question, which I should've asked earlier, is are there any videos of this "i'm obsessed with my own ass" skank on pornmd or xvideos so I can watch her get abused like the cheap slut she is?

    Really hard to figure out the best on this type of platform..not real money and not sold on it being random.

    haven't chimed in with my picks here, but finally, here goes:

    cash:

    most challanging players are hockey and runtigger, as they are super aggressive and raise non-stop.... it's more like a crapshoot, but you really have to focus or you'll ship your whole stack quick.
    next is biteme when he's "connected"... you get one of two biteme's, the one who can't lose (very challanging to play against), and a more subdued biteme, notably less aggressive and with smaller raises, who plays good, but more in tune with tdb, mpasch, and centy..... when biteme's "superusing," or whatever it is that enables him to hit everyhand and crush overpairs, etc., he's by far the hardest on site to beat.....

    tourney, shograu is probably the best, as I've never seen a player stay alive more often than him with his chips on the line by hitting hands like kq and qj (by hitting trip q's) over ak, kk, or whatever other holding the other player may have. I don't call him one of the two "sbr golden boys" for nothing (jake is the other). I need to play more with shog to fully appreciate his game. my fantasy team #2 had the others (the aforementioned jake, etc.)..... From my world cup exp; jedimindpicks, who i rarely play against in dailies, but he seems to have the same type of "golden boy" status (ie, uncanny ability to stay in trnies by doubling up with the inferior hand when all his chips are on the line).... he knocked me out of two w.cup trnies with rags to my superior hands, and is way up on the yearly list.... so he's obviously found the key to success on sbr. The other top two on the yearly list obviously damn good and at the top of my trny list, as well(sinmeido and smitch)....

    I will be going to Vegas soon and I think I have learned a lot by playing on this site with several players

    Good play on these 2/4 and higher tables will run over 1/2 NL in Vegas I think
