Official 2010 Supernova Elite pursuit thread - Page 196 - Internet Poker

One real downside to the 9-handed LHE game is that there are frequently one or two people sitting out on the 2/4 - 5/10 games. These games tend to break quickly as the tables drop below 7 players--so table breaks would probably occur more frequently on the 9-handed games.

I'm not sure one less fish is a problem. I seem to do worse when there are more than 3 30% flop players at the table. Three players chasing with bottom pair, gutshot draw and running flush...one usually seems to get there.

going by that logic, maybe we should make it 13 handed or so.

My worst day playing stts, dropped 30bi's. THose effing guys from cities like "Krrmnntcrb" and "Mxvvcruc" got me tilted pretty good (communist plot obv). Seems Russia is making a run for produing the worst poker players, which is currently held by any SPanish speaking country, which in turn took the title from France, that had it forfeited to them when Italy went to .it

As a limit player, you have to be kidding to make that comment.

460k. Running awful and playing awful as a result. Cashing out 85% of the money in my account and re-evaluating my play at the 100 and 200 dollar buy ins. No confidence right now and no desire to play for the time being.

This has no relation to poker at all and probably doesn't belong in the SNE thread, but I watched this today while grinding and thought I'd share with everyone..

Another cool movie you should check out is Two Hands... it was one of Heath Ledgers first movies.

kind of along this line, I am curious needbeer.

When you meet someone and they ask what you do and you tell them you play online poker. Do you actually tell them you are good at poker?? And do you think you are good at poker because you make 3-4 mill vpp/good money by shortstacking and occasionally playing random idiots at 10/20 with 40-50bb? I've always wondered this about the shortstackers and since you seem to be the leader, should be able to answer it

I actually think you would be able to win full stacking from playing a bunch with you

its pretty irrelevant if he thinks/is good. he does basically the exact same thing as many 30k/year computer related "real world" jobs and makes way more. Ofc, I still think shortstackers ruin poker, but I guess I'll just get over it, and probably not go for SNE again next year b/c stars is pretty terrible atm.

I think I word what I am asking in teh wrong way, i just really ****ing hate shortstackers

i mean yea it is fun to have them minraise and 3bet them to 5x or you minraise and they ship it in but anytime I see one with 100BBs at a table for some reason I get really excited and play atc against them in hopes to stack them, missing out on free money from me by not full stacking more often

Just to add my opinion about the 100K VPP WSOP bonus:

I am going for SNE this year.
If the 100K VPP bonus is offered, the chances I will play the WSOP ME via PS are 95%.
if the 100K VPP bonus is not offered the chances I will play the WSOP ME via PS are 5%.

????

2nd part is obv true, any SNE understands this.

I just can't stand someone like him. Acts like mr nice guy in the thread but is a 2 faced scumbag ss'er. If he didn't have cancer I'd be curious how many people hear would shower him in praise constantly. It's obviously too bad that he has it, and I feel bad for him but I just don't like his attitude overall in comparison to what he writes in this thread.

its so funny how poorly you guys come off in these threads... pick on a guy who is playing by the rules???? how much sense does that make..

its even more funny when you consider there may be a legitimate argument that NL-cash rules need to be re-balanced.

but.... calling him 'scumbag'.... give me a break
