i obviously suck at poker

I agree.

Man, it is good to know that I missed absolutely nothing yesterday on this thread, just people arguing with someone asking a very simple question. Give the guy a break.

The bottom line is your sample is entirely too small. You need to play at least 500 games before you can get some sense of how good you are. End of discussion

TGSM, did you downswing turn around my friend? My heater wish game true, on ~2k uptick in $88' since I begged for one

lost about $1.2k on tuesday, but up about $600 since then... + I get $100 rakeback today..

from the start of last weekend I am up about $600, so I guess I should be happy, but you are not happy when you win money then lose alot of it rather than the other way round...

I guess variance is unstoppable.. Just embrace it when it comes..

holy **** the 35% roi argument was boring. my scroll wheel almost broke off trying to get past it.

If it wasn't for donnyberretta, I wouldve stopped reading and actually got some work done...

He should just shut up and play the game and then decline. Sit 2nd or when the lobby is free. Problem solved? ofc he would be a bum hunter then, but if that's the only way he can make money, then fair play.

It makes me LOL though when he says '1ks, hu cash" etc etc, i mean it's easy to say when your playing off somebody elses money right? And also "i'll get my backer to sit e1 of your games" LOL.

I sat ownersmanual once and he asked through chat if I wouldnt sit him anymore because his backer doesn't like hime playing regs...seems weird if he is actually sitting a bunch of you now, his backer must be furious!

Can you teach me how to grind please?

most tilting thing is when brick cards are not brick cards.. lol

Full Tilt Poker $110 + $5 Heads Up No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t40/t80 Blinds - 2 players
The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked.com

BB: t950 M = 7.92
Hero (BTN/SB): t2050 M = 17.08

Pre Flop: (t120) Hero is BTN/SB with 8

Hero calls t40, BB checks

Flop: (t160) 4

(2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets t80, BB raises to t160, Hero calls t80

Turn: (t480) K

(2 players)
BB bets t480, Hero raises to t960, BB calls t230 all in

River: (t1900) A

(2 players - 1 is all in)

Final Pot: t1900
BB shows 4

(two pair, Kings and Fours)
Hero shows 8

(a pair of Eights)
BB wins t1900

I know flop is close to shipping, but calling here can be ok IMO... prob just best to ship..

Why no raise preflop?

I'd have shipped this flop considering your hand is pretty much under-valued here.

also, I was (uncharacteristically) nitty and passive in this match so I thought let him jam all his missed draws and worse made hands on turn.. but tbh, the pot is big enough on flop so FE is fine and him mucking is prob as good as a call so should of jammed..

he is def jamming his entire range on any turn card...

i dont think pre is that "std". Unless you have a read that he raises a ton of limps or is going to shove over your limps fairly liberally then i hate pre-flop. And reality is, if hes not shoving K high over your limps pre than hes not shoving that wide over your limps. Raise pre ---> shove flop = ez game.

You played it pretty bad imo, but not quite sure why you posted it in here. Not trying to be a DB but its been said a million times that std/bad beat hands dont really need to be in here.

Just wanted to note that, hopefully without raising the storm again.

Moral of the story: Do not have high hopes for the internets?

You're right we should've given up on him a lot earlier once it got boring.

Finally going to watch the 2m2mm episode now, hope it's good.

edit: just saw the jiacstrap part. I don't know anything about the guy, but the blackout part was pretty bad. Happened to me a lot when I had a terrible computer that kept crashing when I multi-tabled with my tracker on, so I sort of understand how tilting it can be.

If you want the bet, post it up and we have a deal.

And when exactly when would this bet end? Either you win at a undetermined point in time or you die and Villain gets $$ in escrow? I´´ll bet you 1K$ you will not sustain a ROI of 15% or higher over the next 500 games playing at $105 and higher, details to be worked out.
