R.I.P. to all who can't get their 95% going like me

it wen't all ok at zoom25 i was 3 or 4 BI up and quit then play PLO10 regular and some russian moron just wins every all in its ridiculuos.

What happened during the first ~750 hands? Were you flipping with the whole table or something? :P

haha, was a good table! 1000bb swings

Have you ever downswinged 30+ buy-ins at 5c/10c Svenska Spel?

A 30-buyin downswing at PLO? Say it ain't so!!!

Haha, you're right.

It's just that the PLO 5-max at SVS micro are so loose, passive that you won't see these downswings that often I guess.

probably not at 5c/10c but I lost like 50 buyins in two days at 10/20c last year

Do I need a Swedish ID number to play on SVS?

Im thinking the same, are stacks always very deep there? 50bi upswing in 5k hands must feel nice.

k that's it we're done talking about SVS.

Someone post a bad beat hand

No I think you just need to be registered here. A few years back you'd be able to take university courses for free and even get like $300 a month from the government. And be able to play at SVS. As far as I know foreigners are charged for studying nowadays. But if you pay for university you can live here and play at Svenska Spel.

Bad beat hand? When you get a walk in the BB after being dealt AAKKds for the first time in forever. But I guess it's better than 3betting, getting called by two players and not being able to let it go on a T97 twotone flop without your suit :P

You got a walk cus you had all the good cards

ill post a good beat

Stacking 200bb pre with not-so-sexy AA? Now I know where your swings come from :P

Sick stuff - loosing in a flip with the worst hand

¨

I would never stop potting pre with AAT6ss

I don't think he implied it was bad just very heavy in the variance for large sums of $$. I thought the same thing when I first read it and had to read his response a few times.

Besides, he won the pot, so it seems pretty good

hai

So go ahead and do that with endless stacks if you want. Maybe I'm a nit, but I don't like to flip for multiple buy-ins when I can first see if the flop is not the most terrible.

You see, the point is that you aren't flipping for stacks, you're putting in money ahead. In most cases. If I can flip for 500bb 50% of the time and get a 60/40 for 500bb 50% of the time I'll snap that yo. It's not flipping for stacks, it's printing money.

If you call to see that the flop is not "the most terrible", is that because you think you can fold if the flop is the most terrible? Can't the other guy do the same if the flop comes out terrible for him?

What if you both have aces, you call his 5b, and the flop comes K9Qdd and you fold your AA33 when he jams his AA67?

edit : There ARE times where I won't repot with Aces pre, definitely, but it's not like I look at a standard 200bb stack off with AAT6ss and go "hmm that's a bit thin man!"

Nobody says it's thin. It's just high variance. From my experience, when somebody stacks off pre for more than 200bb and he's not brain dead, he always has AA, so you're flipping.
If villain is capable to 4bet with some rundown and we are very deep then by calling and not turning your hand face up you're more likely to stack him if the flop comes A-high or something like 228.

Makes bad plays to reduce variance, I like it. Wait for a better spot to play for your tournament life.

Jesus, if you can get most of your stack in with AA then sign me in, but if you're like 500bb deep and you allow your opponent to play perfectly by x-betting only with AA then no thanks but go ahead.
