A+ thread. Much fun!

Funny this happened to me today, guy sits down one hand and pushes the aggression to the max (betting pot every street) I end up folding 4 flush river and he leaves immediately. Wondering if that's some sort of strategy lol, obv had no history, so couldn't put him on a bluff. But it's not like it's against the rules, just some fishy behavior... sucks cause I don't remember who it was and didn't even have time to take a note. Really though I don't think it matters much, each hand is a separate event.

When some players get stacked, and the winner leaves the table, the stacked player sometimes complains that he didn't have a chance to "win my money back." The problem with this way of thinking is, it isn't MY money any more, it's the money of the guy who won all my chips and left. He can do what he wants with HIS money, so I don't really think it's proper for me to tell somebody else what to do with their money.

Thread Derail: "A liberal is somebody who donates their neighbor's salary to charity."

Moral of the Story: It's easy to tell other people what they should do with their money.

(I thought this derail was somehow related to this thread, but now I'm not so sure, and I'm to lazy to erase what I already wrote. )

Have a blessed day!
Oh so u were serious and not just using a theoretical example. Lol. Ur free to play ur money how u want but that is a weak ass strategy. Post flop play involves more than if u hit the flop or have an overpair or any decent PP jamming the rest of ur stack OTF. The strategy and the hit n run are both lame imo but the reality is that u are gonna play the way u want and leave when u want and I’m gonna do what I need to do to adjust to that

Many players have been successful with the SSS. If what you mean by "weak ass strategy" is that it isn't the BEST strategy, then that might be true depending on one's bankroll and overall poker skills.

I agree. There are many times when using the SSS that I don't jam the flop with an overpair.

Most of the fish buyin full. If you want to take a quarter of their money instead of full then that’s your call. Same goes for hit and running, your decision to be like that, not illegal. Have a blessed day!

Hit and run is playing a few hands or orbits, winning a huge pot, then leaving. The "hit" part is fast.

It is *not* playing a couple hours, winning a big pot and leaving right after.

If you can't adjust to wins, losses, new players, etc then there is probably a reason you're grinding your local 1/2 casino games.

Do you know how many idiots on Global try to play me heads up? Great idea when a 3rd player will sit in a matter of seconds. So everyone needs to stop whining and acting like they're owed something. If another player sits, the game dynamics change with it anyways.
+1, nice to see some logic in the thread.

I think that big_bwalz is extremely intelligent. He often shares valuable insights, and I have learned a lot from him. So, there is a 0% chance that big_bwalz is ******ed.

(On the other hand, there is probably at least a 50% chance that I'm ******ed, which of course renders my analysis pretty much unless. )

I got hit and run playing 300/600 4handed limit holdem at the Commerce ... does Commerce not count?

98.5% of people that hit and run are both bad players and gambling addicts so I wouldn't worry

******ed is a strong word. I would say more delusional/living in his own world. I guess he could be dealing with a mental illness other than ******ation. Sadly now based on your view of CALLING him INTELLIGENT I have no choice but to basically deem any opinion you have irrelevant for obvious lack of understanding of this simple situation

one time I hit and ran Daniel Negreanu

The +1 was for the factual accuracy of what he posted.

(Plus I actually enjoy being mocked, but not quite as much as being ridiculed, humiliated, or publicly shamed. )
