Sky Poker Forums is upgrading its look! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
Stop trolling our area51 threads - you know who you are!
Question - Where do you post a hand if you require a discussion on the tactical aspects of it?
Answer - In the poker clinic
Question - where do you post a hand about the dubious nature of the RNG?
Answer - in Area 51.
If a player posts a hand in the area 51 section and says ''its a fix' ''its rigged'' etc, then the topic of discussion is the nature of the RNG, it has nothing to do with how they played the hand, ''shoulda shoved, folded'' etc has no bearing on the way the rng deals the cards.
If a player posts a hand in the poker clinic and asks for opinions as to tactics, then fine, but in area 51 the players are rarely discussing tactics, so please, if you want to talk tactics, go to the clinic and leave us looneys alone!!
Here is an extract from the sky poker forum rules which some of you tacticians may find useful, read it, then leave the great area 51 in peace!
TrollingTrolling is where we consider a post to disrupt the general flow of discussion. Contrary to what some might think, troll posts do not necessarily come from 'troll members' – even well-established and respected posters are able to ‘troll’ a thread inadvertently.

Point 2 - Yes comment on threads but when a players is asking about the validity of the rng comments should be about % etc not betting tactics
Point 3 - only that repulsive six pack, the only guy in the world with a beer belly six pack lol

Tolling , To disrupt the General Flow of Traffic.
In my defence, I have posted my own odd rant, and was on the point of doing so again yesterday evening as a result of some $#it suckouts to some opponents who were clearly blood relatives of the poker fairy - the words "FFS, not again!" were heard to bounce off the living room walls. Losing to a 7-1 draw is unlucky, but when this happens on three critical hands out of three, it's time to dust off the Area 51 membership application form. Oops . . . just done it again . . . Sorry.
Some would say those that look at themselves instead of blaming the rng are blind followers.
