Stars $3R, 4547 runners, almost 6 hrs in... I wait an hour thru every imaginable trash hand... only to have this happen and go out short of the big money in 119th spot. I win this hand, I have 50K plus and EVERY chance at making my second 3R final table.

Why does this ALWAYS happen? Obv, waiting for KK or AA is a fruitless strategy, right? Obv the shaundeeb's and djk123's and ElkY's of the world are not sitting there waiting for KK or AA, right? Where am I going wrong? Cause I won't stick it all in on a bluff with a 78s-type hand just to steal the blinds?

Edit: Sorry, DO NOT ANSWER THAT, no strat in BBV obv

how did your M get to .85

Obv the shaundeeb's and djk123's and ElkY's of the world are not sitting there waiting for KK or AA, right?

yah trust me, if you got K3o and 92o and Q6o for an hour you'd be in trouble too

i kept the faith, isn't that worth anything?

but why when i finally get it, does K5o beat KK? i mean, wtf kind of game is this anyway? "skill"?

poker is skill for sure, it takes alot of skill to fold down to 2 bigblinds

i kept the faith i'd get a hand, so that's worthless?

i know the answer is yes, the prob is i can't believe it. thus my problems in poker.

no strat in bbv

and i don't think this is a very good game when K5o can call me and beat my KK

that's just ******ED

I'm sorry... in more ways than one obv.

This has te be a level.

U have less then 2 BB's

I have what most do not have... patience.

It never pays off tho.

You will never convince me that shoving any 2 just because I have (gasp!) less that 10BB's is smart. F that strategy, it's for dumbasses who read books.

I have confidence I can come back from 2BB's and win the whole shebang. It has happened for me in the past and IT WILL HAPPEN FOR ME IN THE FUTURE.

i just get frosted losing to a dumbass luckbox big stack like this...

... and look where that patience got you

I ask again...

...what kind of game is NLHE when K5o can beat KK?

A STUPID F'IN GAME

that's what.

Yes I am very fed up and should quit, cold turkey. I know that.

Problem is, I can't. I am addicted. To a f'ing dumba$$ game. That brings me nothing but AGGRAVATION.

I liked it better when you quit poker and 2P2!

Funny you bitch about not ITM'ing a 4.5k player MTT. It's going to happen like 90% of the time for you. Get used to it chappy!

ahahaha good catch

you can TRY to quit

but take it from me... u can't quit

that's what i mean about ADDICTED

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely face)
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

So what kind of game is this?

Flip a coin 50 times and the guy who wins all 50 takes it down?

Yah, fun game huh? Y the "F" do we do this? Is this really a good competetive sport?

I say no.

this thread is going places

lol you have less then 2BB's!

before i sleep, i'll like to post...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
