OMG. I know last week, I played a hand super badly (even worse than usual ), but this one's got to be right up there... So I'm feeling a little light headed today for some reason, and I thought the guy limped and I raised, so that's why the pot was so big. I didn't realize he min raised me pre as I'm playing the hand!!! Anyway, so I'm thinking he's donking into me with some crap because he's the table fish. After the river, I was like "WTF! Why would he limp pre w QQ?!?" So I look at the HH and I was so tilted afterwards that I had to stop playing. The funny thing was, after I sat out to go to the bathroom, I come back to see that he's sitting out (maybe because I'm sitting out)! I got a good laugh out of that. Now he'll probably look for me every time he plays because even tho he's a fish, I'm apparently the uber fish. :-)

So I'm looking at a few "decent" looking new players at the table, and I notice a guy whose name looks like "Titan US". And I'm thinking what a weird name. It's only like 15 minutes later that I realize it's "TitAnus." :-)

Another sign I should take a break... :-)

More Tales of Old Man Spew...

Not sure if this happens to you guys, but sometimes when I sit at a new table and there are 6-7 players, HEM does not display the correct stats (I think it had something to do with the # of players at the table settings). Anyway, I thought squeezer looked fishy and had a 3bet percentage of like 27%. Because 27 is such a weird number, I figure it must be over a decent sample. So on the flop, I'm thinking I'm good a decent amount of the time. It's only later I find out his stats don't look that fishy and his 3bet percentage is only like 4%. Another guy who's going to look for me at the tables. :-)

I have no idea what you're talking about. so *probably* not... if that makes you feel better. But then again, I am pretty senile... :-)
01-09-2010 , 07:35 AM
So I'm watching a Brian Townsend video, and who do I see at the 6max 40/80 table, but our own Larghetto. BT didn't do much playing in the video tho.
01-09-2010 , 07:49 AM
So I'm looking at my Rake race, and I see 20Buck just crushing the leaderboard. He's paid like 3x as much rake as I have this month (which is pretty hard for a cash game player to do). Any news from the 6max circuit?

My ankle's feeling a lot better, so now that I'm not stuck at home, maybe I won't be posting nearly as often... but still often. :-)

Tbh, there's a lot of crap I'm thinking that I refrain from posting here (I know - hard to believe considering my post count). :-) Just curious - are there any poker blogs you like? You can pm me if u don't want to post. What site would you recommend for a blog? A poker-specific one or a general interest one?

i won the rakerace last month with ~33k and thought id have a shot at it again this month nad i check after first week and hes already on pace for like a 45k rake month and is 5k ahead of me lol

and last month the top 3 i think were cash players. although sng = more rake i think most of the heavy sng grinders play on stars for the EZ SNE
