So... it's just okay? Deal with it. Cool. Move on? I lost AA 6x yesterday playing it this aggressive. No one had a set or two pair on flop. Just ran me down. Kind of nervous about this site and I've won ++ $ on here.

Yeah? It's Global. 100nl or 10nl, the games are great.

Some guy played a hand (very, very) badly and beat you. That's a highly unique experience, I recommend starting a thread on twoplustwo.com about it.

Seems standard. Suited cards. Hit a pair. Get it in. Get there.

It almost seems like there are a bunch of recreational players that have jumped on from Facebook.... Its almost like Global is reaching the audience you would WANT to play against. But then again maybe not.... maybe you hate money.

I would like you to ponder if there could be a correlation between the facts of:

1. People play hands very badly on GlobalPoker.com; and
2. You have "won ++ $ on here"

People playing very poorly should, you know, make you the OPPOSITE of nervous. Do you think, like, your opponent is a superuser and knew how the board would run out?

I get what you're saying. But this $ will now run off to someone else and I can't take that back. Yes... we want players like this. But how in the world do you make either call? Let alone end up winning w/ 3rd best hand. If I checked it down and he won .. so be it. Just can't come up with any reasoning on this site with good hands.

I've never called out exact cards more in my entire life. I'm not a genius but I can' truly predict the next card 8 out of 10x. But folding isn't easy vs fish.

Agree. We "want" these players and calls. But overall.. that's how you lose your bank and have to grind it back. Doesn't seem legit at all most days on there. Quads or nothing!

Stop playing above your bankroll and you'll be able to take the beats like this and move along to the next hand. To be fair, you're only about 68% to win this hand.

Judging from his play style and stack size he's just a high action rec player that's running hot. Stay within your BR limits and don't tilt it all off. Bad beats happen..I've gottoen beat by Quads twice today.

I normally don't talk strategy but one nl100 hand can't hurt. the guy with 89s played the hand well imo. the preflop is somewhat marginal and calling the flop shove is ok, hard to calculate the equities in multi-way all ins here but it looks fine. It is definitely a good call if he can see everyones hole cards.

preflop and flop shove with AA is entirely standard,

limp calling that size with AQo is bad, and calling flop shove is bad too.

Hahahaha.

In all seriousness, it's called your playing 100nl on globalpoker.. it's uh, you know, extremely soft? Keep grinding & enjoy.

I never made this much on PokerStars or Merge or whatever back in the day because the players there were so much better. I friggin love Global for the Facebook ads alone!
