The thing that I hate the most about online poker is watching people push all in on hands that I will fold off.

I hate when ppl will push all in on a blank board when I have Ks and they have A 6 off and catch an ace on the river.

finished in the top 500 my AA got busted won a whole 18C. Was just playing a $1 10 person sng double or nothing and knocked four of the 5 players needed to finish the tourney so I made 2 bucks. Oh and the final knock out came against the 2nd biggest stack I busted his AA with K10 to finish the SNG.

On pokerstars they have the freeroll qualifiers and if you make it in the topp 300 of round 1 you move to round 2 top 1000 of that round you make it to the final table top 200 of the final table you get to send a video of why you should be staked in a high stakes televised game and if they pick you you get 100k of cash and get to keep anything you make over the 100k. They fly you to where its being shot at and put you up in a hotel and I believe they pay your expenses food, transportation etc....

currently with 125k chipstack and 890 players to the final 1k

I have never seen more straight flushes show than any other time ive played total of 6 and counting

just knocked a guy out. He pushes with K 8 off only 23k with my JJ so ofcourse I call and flopped a set and missed his str8 draw. 188k chipstack now with 645 players til its finished.
I love chasers just hit JJ again with someone all in in front of me 7k and a donkey called directly to my right and I played those Js hard and hit a set on the river for a nice 123k pot.

Currently awaiting the Final Round. Playing $1 SnG DoN. I knocked one person out so far and 4 more to go. People are playing to tight and im not getting any cards or id be blind stealing. Starting up a MTT $1 now better profits.
