***Official Stars Regs Thread*** - Page 1059 - Small Stakes Shorthanded Poker

I was just wondering about you defending 100% against a nitty button open; it seemed like he was the tightest guy at the table. Was that an adjustment to him, tilt, or "who cares, you can defend any two with zero rake"?

my guess

I assumed he was just being chatty as normal.

Did he really have AK against stick's JJ bvb?

yep

As far as the 42o defense is concerned, it was all of the above. And I was definitely on some tilt, yeah. I don't know if defending 42o there is good or not, was just clicking buttons.

DN's not bad, I just wanted to play. I could pretty easily go busto if these 500/1k games continue to run, which is basically all dependent on DN, so, we'll see.

Just out of curiousity, what do you get for VPPs up there? (say 100/200+)

As I was watching the match, I wondered if nitting it up a little bit against you guys might not have been a good adjustment. It seemed like he was getting action, regardless of his play. With you liberally three betting him and plenty of capping going on, it isn't like he needs to do much advertising.

The bit I watched, I thought you won. Bummer to hear it didn't go as well as I thought it did. Fun sweating someone from around here in the huge games. Good luck in the next one.

Hmm, no idea, sorry. You could maybe ask in the high stakes LC/NC thread, somebody will know.

I think so, could be capped at 6$ though? Nah, I think it's 5, never pay attention to it.

Edit: I just remembered the dumbest thing about this session, I woke up at like 8 or whatever, got on my laptop and saw the game was running, tried to wake myself up for like 4 minutes, then hopped in. I probably should have waited a bit, oh well I guess.

PTR, I hardly ever use - you've mixed me up with someone.

Why are you posting here, you always struck me as one of those breakeven tag fish who never tried to get better. Then again judging from some of your threads your probably not. I don't mean to be rude but seriously people like you normally last about 1 month and then leave in a storm of arguing and embarrassment , see wads and all those other 'tards who came and left embarrassed.

It's funny how the people who think they are experts get blinded by their expertise.

Wow, not sure about all the ChawkDee bashing here. Did he suck out on every one of you this morning? If so, I wonder if he'll cash those $ out and post pics of rubbing them on his... OTOH, not sure if I really want to see that. Maybe he could have an attractive friend do it and take the photos.

How often is this statement not followed by something utterly rude?

I didn't come here to be harassed and called a liar.

The majority of the posts on your PTR page are by you. You respond to every single person who posts on it. Clearly the notion that you "hardly ever check ptr" is false.

So either you're a liar or someone is impersonating you on your page.

Which is it?

I check PTR about twice a week - maybe you are not a native speaker - in that case I'd suggest you learn your "adverbs of frequency". End of story.

Unless you're a total ****, don't respond to this.

I wonder why this forum doesn't have an age restriction. People like you and Dickqueeri are so immature it's unbelievable - you'll be refer to my mom next
