Have u put out a pro?

[Laceypearls]

I been in many tornaments with pro's but I can't seem too make it too there table! I never put out a pro, I would like too though. I have friends who have taken out many pro's. Have any of you taken out a pro I wanted too know what site and did u get anything special? I hear Full tilt poker gives you your buy in back up too a certain amount of money and a t-shirt..

i haven't done it yet.....came a river card away from putting lee watkinson out of a $3.30 knockout on tilt the other day ...that's as close as i have come....except for a guy that runs another forum that i am a member of... he is a pro but isn't "red" on tilt

[Killermanner]

I know and we all know that the Railbirds community give us low buy ins private games with pros like Lee Watkinson, Chris Walters, Chip Jett ect ... It's very easy to knock them out but only if you get a nice hand when they're moving in because logically we get 3-5 callers as we all want to get the ...

The only time I was sure there was a pro at my table was Lee Watkinson on Fulltilt, but he was sat out so no real braging rights if you were able to knock him out, not that I did and Raine Kahn in the $10k at pokerstars but he had a much bigger stack than me and I was trying to hang on to get into the money so I never tangled with him.

kingjames, I don't understand why that person isn't in red if he is a pro?

nb1961, Well I think if I had too chance too tangle with a pro and I didn't have the nuts I would probley fold only because I'm all about making the money too exspecially if it was a large tornament like midnight madness on full tilt poker or the ferguson.

killer, The railbirds private torneys sometimes have pro's and I may gamble and call a pro's all in there only because the prize pool is smaller and I do want too take out a pro eventually. lol I hope too have that chance one day..

[kingjames07]

there are alot of pros not "red" on tilt me personally if i was a pro i wouldn't wanna be "red"...all that is is a big red target on ur back

[luzipher]

I assume that the "red" color is a choice, not an obligation.
I agree with kingjames07, everybody wants to beat/knock/etc a pro. You must carry on a heavy load.

[Killermanner]

Some pros at FTP that are not in Red, Roothlus, Gigabet, durrr, Annette_15 ect ...

[jctm1988]

Never sat with a pro at a table before, it would be cool to sit down with some pro's and taking them out, but havent had the chance for that atm.


For playing with some serious pro's you would have atleast 3000 $ but then again risk your whole bankroll on one table isnt that smart either .


Good luck vs the pro's !

hi

I seem to remember playing against Clonie Gowan a few months back on Full Tilt - its was at one of the low cash game tables ... I think it was the 10/25 cent or maybe 25/50 cant remember ...

but I did ok and took a bit off her (she was really nice BTW) and a bit off the other players who to be honest were just totally obsessed with trying to "break the pro" which meant they made themselves pretty vunerable to other players

thats my tip if you can get on a pro table ... take money off the other players
(I was watching / waiting for the Phil Ivey table - he players 50/$1 games from memory)

cheers scrawnybob
