owning some souls

this guy can not sleep tonight if he follows my blog
i am legend

auch not today m8

not folding second nuts

Hardly. His line makes no sense apart from the hand you hold blockers for.

just watch and learn how the legend owns souls if you dont know what going on dont say stuff about the hand

Feel free to enlighten us your lordship.

I don't know what he checks back on the flop that leads that turn. Sure he can have some bare draws that he wants to see turn with or some massive wraps that have the board crushed but most of the time I would be guessing that he is c-betting that flop HU including most of his A2's. To me his turn bet looks like a bluff or semi-bluff.

This and I would be guessing this turn hits your range slightly better than his after the check, you have the blockers to the other likely value hand and you can"t call turn here profitably. You played it well by raising and I like the sizing this deep. This looks like a good spot to bluff profitably and you obviously need some bluffs here for balance.

I am sure you will tell me my logic is way off, and it possibly is because I have no idea how you both play. This is why hands in a vacuum are easy to say "I am legend," and easy for you to say that I have no idea. Both statements can be true without any explanation being provided on the original post.

For me the raise with trip Kings is a way more interesting hand. I will freely admit that I don't know what is happening there. That hand intrigues me.

dont write those long stories man and you really think in a very different way about poker then highstakes players

The hand where i have trips K was maybe to ligt but i just had feeling he did not has an ace so my trips kings where good and even if there not good i can hit fullhouse. if i think i was good on turn i good on river and i dont wanne show weakness with check

Thanks man . You still haven't said anything about the hand as to why we should deem you genius. To me it looks pretty standard. Like maybe 1/2 level standard. But everything you touch must be gold so IDK. Like everything you say in this thread it must right. No bull**** comes from the Bike.

The fact that you get called by worse on turn there means you must be doing something right. Maybe you are legend.

lay in bed for 48 hours depressed what i am going to do.

before that lost 20k+ on 25/50 i quit highstakes

i sit with a big question

i really planning to do something good (with money) for other people.
But someway i feel that when i do that i think that maybe i get a way better feeling if people around me notice i do very good stuff for other people then i just do it quitly without people knowing i do good.

can it be that i really want do (big) good stuff for people if I get credits for that? is this bad ? makes this me selfish? or either way i still do stomething good?

I know this thread is totally not serious but if some people wanne share there vieuw on this i will not troll and would really be appreciated

I lol'd. Do people really watch this kind of stuff to get motivated ?

Almost 1 million views so I guess so

If I need inspiration I read OMBs blog

Doing good stuff for people should be about the feeling it gives you and the benefit it brings the people you are trying to help, not as a way for people around you to appreciate you more. The appreciation you might receive can come as a consequence of your actions but it shouldn't be the motivating factor. I mean doing good things is obviously good but it's not going to satisfy what you are after (a sense of belonging) and may not be sustainable if you are doing it for the wrong reasons. This is actually quite common in modern society. As I know you like quotes etc I have included one of my favourite pieces of writing that sums this up:

No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend's
Or of thine own were:
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.

Poker is by nature, a very selfish and insular occupation (online poker for sure). Having a goal/motivation outside poker will probably be helpful. You probably need poker objectives (i.e a new game) and a objective in real life too.

If you are trolling me good game though

My guess is that OMB views himself as a good person with good morals which may or may not be true but lets assume that it is. The problem is that OMB is a poker player and the vast majority of people outside of poker view poker players in a negative light when it comes to things like morals and being selfish and I'm guessing it bothers him to be viewed as such and by doing good in a more public way he hopes that people will see him as the upstanding young man that he truly is.

As far as doing good publicly being viewed as a selfish act. A logical argument can made that by doing good things for people publicly you will be inspiring others to do the same.

Personally I don't believe a human has ever done anything for completely altruistic reasons. That would imply that the person doing the act has no ego and those people do not exist.

Just do what feels right to you OMB

thanks for your view. I am not sure if i care what other people think about me playing poker. It feels like i feel bad myself about pokerplayers(and myself) and the way they punish player who come from a bad place or have problems. Maybe that why i do not have lot of respect for lot of pokerplayers.
maybe it does not differ a lot what you say but it more that i think my surrounding did not give me the feeling of doing something bad.
i will just do what feels right! or maybe start doing that when gg poker

Seriously? You're like one of the worst offenders yourself. I'm no angel either, but you take it to whole new heights(or lows?). Come on hate on me some more for actually using proper BRM, it's not so easy now that you aren't running so hot

Being disrespectful to those who got screwed hard on BF isn't very cool tbh. When a few manage to fight their way back up from that and then get banned for simply playing too well, proceed to fight their way back again for the 3rd time -- in your infinite wisdom you decide to be a total douche and go on to describe them as "some of the worst people". You don't know **** about adversity kid, don't even act like you do.

People tried to help you and prevent this but you acted like you knew it all and offered insults in return. Asking for pity now and trying to act self-righteous is just disgusting. It's gotten to the point where it's hard to even take the slightest pleasure in it because it's so damn guilty. I've actually been hoping you'd win lately because the cringe factor is getting to be too massive. Now I just hope you will spare yourself and quit or drop down to proper stakes. I seriously doubt you can control yourself 100% of the time, so quitting is probably best tbh.

you did not get where i talk about. Not about bashing some low staked weak regs on forum. I am talking about all those regs who just wait til some guys with gambling problem or other problem come and give there money away. I hate casino's and lotterys because the exploit people who does not understand what going on. but me and other regs are no better.
BTW if you play so low because of proper BRM you are broke as ****, but gl in 5$ sit en go's tho

lol what
nobody ever helped and what they needed to prevent?
maybe i do not have to control me 100% of time because if the skill is so much ahead you can tilt sometimes

How would you even know? bovada is anonymous, merge stopped reporting stats ages ago, and wpn reporting is spotty at best lol

prevented what? your total meltdown obvs

how exactly did this forum try to help me to prevent that?

I told you back in summer before all of this to diversify by playing more live cash/mtt and looking into staking/coaching/affiliate stuff along with trying to grow this small game in general, and not to jump on high-risk stuff. I even offered to help you all that I could. It might seem like small stuff to you now, but it's good for the long-term. It's not some new crazy thing lol, I've already seen it work in the past.

oww now it all makes sense, you was the guy that someway wanne start trainings group with me i could coach 6 max you 9 max i kindly say that you not skillfull enough. you have made so much dumb comments to on this forum too without realizing it and still dont get it if i look to your reactions.

This was last pm i did send you, i still stand behind every word in it:

i read it all but you dont have good view. i dont wanne start coaching business or soo and definitly not giving coaching for more people or making vids.

Just if somebody wanne pay me good $ for some hours coaching in MY times i am ok with that.
i know most coaches are crap because they coach because they dont crush games anymore. i dont have that issue and by that reason there no pressure to do boring stuff like advertising contract etc etc
if people are smart they can come to me.

idk what you mean with 9 and 6 max i think it not huge different. i think i will still beat anyone 9 max too. and sometimes play 9 max cash online and mtt too but yeaah it boring.

i dont worry about stuff you talk about and not planning to learn lot of people for less $ lot of skill like traininggroup. dont look for connection with guy who want coaching other then coaching hours

I can see for some people it can be huge +ev to take coaching with me tho for example guys who play super highstakes mixed with o8 variant in it (or big o8) some guys when SCOOP comes that wanne grind whole schedule with all o8 too. and first couple guys that grind low stakes o8 that wanne become better because i will not charge those much if the ambitieus and thankfull

ok you say ur so good, go grind against sergei or gangstachel in o8 husngs and prove it...should be ez money for you right? Or come help me get the $100 sngs active and we mass table those? Honestly I'd probably be more worried about bokkie than you, and also Juicy J too since he's pretty scary

Seriously you could be finding much softer spots live and getting some guaranteed income online on top while keeping your risk low by staying at lower stakes online and maybe working on multi-tabling more. Grinding it out against the same few players at the highest stakes without a clear edge when you're barely even rolled for it isn't very smart lol

O8 just isn't big enough for it yet and the player pool is too divided because of poker laws and such. You can make fun of the stakes that I play, but its all the poker economy can support during these times tbh. I'm always trying to get bigger games going and I've made a decent profit year after year after year. I mean really, I got kicked off of merge for winning too much lol
