BRAG+BEAT TLDR: I just played Taylor Caby HU4ROLLZ...lost...but learned valuable lesson :) - Page 4

[QUOTE=Spotmepleez;14628379]So let me get the facts straight .
#1 - your entire roll is 1400
#2 - you normally play with 600 of it on the tables. That is 50% of your bankroll.

spread across 12 tables 50$ a piece is not that big a deal. As long as you don't tilt its less of a variance than playing 4 tables or less

It's more variance multi tabling, but the variance will tend to even out quicker due to more number of hands being played. The variance is higher though.

P.S. Not bashing OP - I play underolled.

I don't think putting your role on the table against someone a lot better than you fits this description. Probably fits when you throw in the freeroll aspect.

Ok let me get this st8....

You follow a superior player on a web site. You ask him a question, he goads you into playing HU. You luckbox it to get quads but then after that get horribly outplayed then he sends you most of it back and you learned something?

On the contrary, it's genius: just think how many 50nl grinders are going to play him hu4rollz now thinking they're freerolling!

as long as you do not play terrible and are a winning player you will not go through your roll by putting most of it on the tables spread across 12+. If you don't tilt like a monkey, you still only have one buy in on each table. FR nit like he is its rly not a big deal

also I saw this match, was pretty funny and stupid imo

Wow, Taylor Caby is a really nice guy. I'm keeping that 1k and laughing at this guy hoping that he comes back for a grudge match.

You just sat down with your whole roll and lost it. That's not uncommon, really, and it's not that spectacular. The real story here is that Taylor Caby shipped you a free $1k. For that you should be ecstatic and extremely thankful IMO. That's pretty awesome of him.

Never the less very sick story and awesome of TC to send back. Obviously the good PR he gets is worth more than the 1k if he keeps it.
