HUHU NC/LC Thread for March - Page 15 - Heads Up Poker

Fair argument normally yes and that's what I'd do 90% of time. But vs this dude it v much represented a weak bluff/something weird - he was def x-raising flop if he had the T or 7, and another couple bets took him all in anyway. And we can see how sensible he is later..

well being results orientated about it, calling the turn is the superior play imo

This is the arctypical trifecta. C/r the flop then give up initiative on the turn and the river to get a silly hand to bluff/call twice.

Haha, on the contrary, they might have wanted to take a proper look at the land of the free.

Bad seat selection imo :-D

i am ****ING moses in the desert over here

ive gotten better spots in the last 2 weeks than I have my entire career and I just lose and lose and lose. up a worthless 8k in the last 30 days grinding my ****ing ass off 50 sometimes 60 hours a week and in school full time this is unbelievable.

I just lost 1500 to someone who has never won that much in their entire career since 2008 in one day acording to ptr

and he did it in 40 hands

he just says "wow" and left

I just dont know what to do... the players havent changed... I table select to the point where I only play people who have an established ptr history of losing 3bb+ or they limp they button. otherwise i quit. I am 100% sure my own play has not changed to warrant this drastic of a decrease in winrate.

I actually am at the point where I am beginning to think the game itself is no longer the same. It simply is no longer a skill game when i play and I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.

thank god for drinking
