Also so sorry to hear about it Trex. Some say that getting a new dog right away might ease the pain. Not that it will replace her.

And welcome, jwhitesj.

Old people calling old people old IMO.
OOps, I quoted the wrong post.
My thinking was flawed?

I mean to quote this quote in the response above. Was my thinking that I was going to try hard to make sure i played better poker and stay with it until I was able to turn it into a winning session bad?

This thinking fails to recognize two immutable facts:

1. You were tilting.

2. You can't force the cards.

Edit: continuing a session because you want to get unstuck is never a good plan.

I wonder where he is from (from culture clash I would expect him/her to be from Sweden, Germany, Russia, Denmark, Poland, Lithuanian, Norway, Finland, Latvia or Ukraine). Did I get one of them right?

Okey, lets bury that topic. That thought scares me.

Well there arent a lot of places were I could practise English (outside of the magic world of internet). Plus most kids learn English before they even go to school (the magic of cartoons).

But I wasn't tilting, I have tilted before, I just realised that I was unfortunate. I was just determined to play as long as necesary and too play better poker. Seriously, I wasn't tilting, I dind't even get angry when my aces got beat, I jsut said "of course" and moved on to the next hand. I played fairly good poker and was never down more than 12 BB, I restacked to the max buy in but I dind't even put a second full buy in down. surely if I had lost 2 or 3 buy ins it would be a different story, but I was never down even a full buy in.

To clarify at merge you can only bring 20BB to the table.

Only saw the title of second clip. Yes the marlins will soar at least until they get injuries and hanley spits the dummy. Could be a huge year, new stadium, a (on paper) much stronger lineup and I'm excited (to be watching from afar). U really should save the trolling for later if the fish turn into fish.


As for not being here much. I learnt from the best. Respond to notifications if dougl is asleep but mostly just ****ing off and doing real life stuff. That's how jaded mods roll, amirite? retrolled

I am up in San Francisco this week. I have a public service announcement:

The Oaks 15/30 game is a reasonably raked, no flop, no drop fish tank.

That is all.

You'll pardon me for continuing to fail to believe you. Tilt takes many forms, Padawan, a prevalent and ironic one being the inability to recognize when you're suffering from it.

Disagree......her pic was rather cute. You, on the other hand, are afraid to post a pic if i recall correctly. Likely elephant man syndrome or something like that is my guess.

Ozi,

you MUST listen to the song in the second clip while watching the animation of the first, and if you don't, you'll be looking at another 10000 point infraction.
