It just says feedback is used for internal purposes. I don't think it has a real use yet other than telling the site admins what content we like and don't like.

I deleted some posts earlier. Probably was one of those.

Edit: It had nothing to do with whether anyone liked or disliked the posts. I don't see likes or dislikes as I'm still using the old skin and they don't show up.

Pman should pay Trooper for some tournament coaching.

I fear I may be a victim of mistaken identity here.

Yep, I thought I was replying to slow poker's post showcasing the video rather than your reply. My apologies.

GG Tim! I wonder what this near win will do to his WSOP staking package mark-up?

2.0 min obv - maybe down to 1.5 in 25ks and up

And Pman will put together a .65 mark down package.

I think you have to discount villains having the nuts on board 2 after the check-around, so I agree it's a weak fold. Of course the sets-turned-quads/FH that beat you weren't super strong on the flop so they might have checked assuming the straight was there. I do NOT think you want to call action on the flop due to worse implied odds and a worse hand.

The Q tends to get everyone thinking results-oriented of course.

congrats to the trooper for the decent little score on the tourney... he earned it and should have his moment in the sun even if its not a 5 or 6 figure score... the haters are gonna hate regardless.....

let me help you with that


btw new skin can't multiquote nor shows location which makes rickroll very sad

New skin can multiquote. Location is missing though.

how?

I thank you.


It was a risk I was more than willing to take.


Here's what I just wrote on YouTube when someone said they’d get it in every time with QQ55 and that 66 wasn’t gonna be out there because of the six on the top flop:

--
I'm well aware that I'm in the minority in respectfully disagreeing. Your top-flop six point is smart, and one that dawned on me immediately after folding, because that flop was already dead to me (first-timer error), but still: as much as 66 and 33 were unlikely, I've seen online (and then in person at this meetup game) how people were spiking quads over quads and boat over boat all over the joint. More common in this game than a standard game. You say 99% but that's not the actual percentage. I don't KNOW the percentage, mind you, but it's not as "super unlikely" as you'd think.

A half hour later, the guy next to me pulled the same "getting it in there every time" that you just said with almost the same scenario and lost it all. Actually, WAS that you? If so, sorry for your loss.

So for my first time ever, since I've got nothing up top, I could end up either losing a massive pot, or chopping a relatively smaller pot. I'd rather fold and consider the ten preflop bucks as a cheap price to see how these things work.

My biggest mistake was forgetting the DNA of the two villains. If they were seasoned players, the fold would make more sense. Since they weren't, sticking around would have made far more sense.

But I'm fine with the fold. Small upside not strong enough to justify the massive downside potential.

Monsters are actually under Double-Board PLO Bomb Pot beds. I've seen them. Many times. They're spooky.

In vlog production time, weeks have elapsed between those hands. In reality, all the hands happened on the same trip eight weeks ago. So your advice, however well-meaning, could not have helped me for hands that long predated your post. But lend me your DeLorean and we're in business.


That queen was so obnoxious. Rub it in, queen.


Heads-up, I’m probably just flatting. Five ways in a single-raised pot where I’m the PFA, and people could certainly have hands like J9s, I’d rather build the pot, especially when BB thinks he’s got something. Knowing his hand now? Yeah, I wish I’d kept him on the hook. Oh well.


I think you know.

That only shows if you are using the new 2+2 mobile-friendly skin. AFAIK the older default, slick, etc legacy skins do not have the like/dislike buttons yet.

The fact that it's multi-way and you're so far ahead typically and the betting lead acts before you is why you have to call.

If any of 3 remaining villains attempts a squeeze, you're close to playing for stacks with a near-lock. If even one of them calls it has a similar pot bloating effect to raising, without showing strength or taking the betting lead. There's way too much good that can happen if you check to throw it away by raising on a hand where no one can have much (very few overpairs with that line, you have all the Ts, what can they have?).

Understood, thanks. Even if it couldn't apply to that vlog's hands have you thought about your extreme risk aversion and taken any steps to address it?


You build a pot by letting others enter it rather than pricing them out with an isolation raise. Your strategy relied on you being perfectly correct on a single hand you placed the bettor on while discounting the other three players' holdings. And even if your read on the bettor was correct it's still incorrect to raise there.

Why

Good to know. Generally speaking, I prefer to juice the pot while a villain thinks he's in great shape, before a scare card kills my action, etc. - but I do see the value in staying coy.

I'm still relatively new to poker, so it's helpful to digest this stuff and see how it all works next time around.

Trooper can easily get away with a 2.0 markup for the Main Event. I would do so up to $500 because I know that is is a little positive EV.

You know you suck at poker when you'd have to go on a Rampage style sun run to get to the level of Trooper.

I guess you are trying to post this:

If you take a look at the 6:32 second mark, Trooper's last name is not legible. It looks like Datr to me. And the paper card in the bag looks white to me. It's suppose to be yellow. I can't tell if his name is on it? The White Copy goes to the dealer, yellow copy in the bag, player keeps the pink copy.

https://youtu.be/EN-N4hChHvA?t=392

How hard is it to print a legible W a t t s ???

Someone with a better laptop/monitor than mine, might be able to tell if he filled out the white paper with his name, is it white or yellow, or whether his last name is legible on the plastic bag.

So far, in all the 2 day events, Trooper was the only guy listed as "Did Not Report".

Timothy 'Did Not Report' Watts !

Afraid of The Man looking for taxes on them winnings LOL.

What a chump.
