fun times losing the 2 stacks i was up 2 minutes before end of session

Been sick and grumpy for a few days and lost my edge....sorry r2w.

Had a client today want a detailed quotation for a new part. Simple little aluminum bracket with a tricky bend to it....but entirely doable. New account and a new buyer is my guess.

She wanted a price breakdown for 1 to 10,000 pieces order.

KS: What are your likely order quantities.
Moron: Depends on your costs

KS: {{WTF}}} Uhhh, well what if I quote 1,25,100,500,1000, 10,000.
Moron: We will probably order 2 at the start. Can you quote 2.

KS: I can actually quote you ANY quantity you would like. We are a custom manufacturer. We do prototyping as well as runs in the tens of thousands. So it would be helpful if I had an idea where to start my quotation for you.
Moron: Well, whereever you have a price break.

KS: Well up to maybe 20 or 25, each will have a different price. After that, maybe in increments of 5 until you reach 100 parts. After that 10 to 25 price breaks is about standard.
Moron: OK, that'll be fine.

KS: What would be fine?
Moron: Can you quote all those price breaks you listed?

KS: I could, but.....er.... that's seems like a bit of overkill don't you think.
Moron: We're not sure how many we will be ordering. Engineering asked me to get an idea about cost on this bracket.

KS: Would you ask Engineering how many they think they will need please.
Moron: Sure.... hold on

{{{she comes back on the line in about two minutes, but before she returns, I'm scrolling around 2+2}}}

Moron: They said they probably will need about 5 parts over the next year or so.

{{{ This is the point where I run into r2w asking if he should fold kings}}}

KS: I'll make all 5 for $30.00 per piece
Moron: What if I only want 1?

KS: That would be $800.00 for the one.
Moron: OK.

maybe

King,

Wet behind the ears when I first sat at a purchasing desk, someone from the line showed up, "We're out of this label!"

OK. I call the supplier, get the details, ready to go....

"Alright, do you have a purchase order number?"

Me: "What's a purchase order?"

True story.

Please, please, please tell me she plays 10NL

Aren't there just days where you'd like to look at the upper right corner of your Life window and just 'X' the f*ck outta there!!!! I mean, you can 'X' out of a bad poker session when you want to, right???

You'll never go robusto with that attitude.

Tomorrow will be telling when I raise her on the telly to see where I'm at.

Iffen she orders one.......

Well, contrary to what many think of business owners, I wouldn't take the order for $800. I would call The Man and recall my experience and suggest a tad bit more training..... I think I earn a bit of Shania doing dat.

Nice to see you around entertainme.... you playing much lately?

i've been to robusto numerous times...

lol you actually said $800

true story Kurt.

Not the first time for me yankin' the chain back

Weehaa... Rolled for 50NL again, which was my goal for this month Think I'll buy myself something pretty in the form of this one:



Hopefully gonna give 50NL a shot again soon, please to have mercy on my roll

While I'm on a roll.......

A FREQUENT King Spew moment is when a client has just received a bid from me and asks me if I can reduce the cost somehow. I will absolutely do this, so no problem. {{I mean this truthfully, no malice as it IS possible I may have missed something at first blush}}

So I go back to my little shoebox in the corner and recalculate and try to figure if a tooling purchase would reduce X process. Then more than likely, I get back to the account that no, the original pricing of $1000 is still good.

At this point, old established accounts are good to go, but the noobs,,,,well, sometimes they DEMAND a better price. I will pause (like I've got the nuts on the river) and say "Sure, I'll get right on it".

Here's the fun part:

"Mr. Hellmuth, I am SOOOOOO glad you asked me to requote. After looking at it again, I found two issues that I had overlooked the previous two times. I am so glad you let me rerequote this. The new price is $1285.00. Thanks again. Can I get a purchase order for this now?"

Not playing. Just dropped in recently to see what's up.

Sucks, I have only played like 300 hands this month and am still stuck 3 cents. Damn work. I wonder if I can get away with playing while on the university internet. I'm just too tired when I get home.

Better to ask forgiveness imo....

vs megafish who just stacked off against my NFD and overs with bottom pair (and won obv):

I'll be doing an "Ask me" thread soon: "Ask me what it's like to run like perpetual ****"

This fish needs to be saved. PM me his sn name and I will do ALL I can to help watch over his bankroll.

Oh and



After the hand he said "$70 in 5 minutes aghahaha easy"

So I was like "Yeah well you're a long term loser, so enjoy it while it lasts" (-EV, tiltaments)

And then he says

"Well"
"what if I leave"
"RIGHT NOW"

and gets off.

Good going me, amirite?

Name is DidYouExpect.

what limit is that ?
its probably 50 but i mean how do u not have bigger swings in 100k hands ? the spikes are so small...

ive swung up to +500 and down to +150 in my first 2k hands of the month
do u play an uber low variance style ? ie. mega nit ?

half 25/half 50

Nittiest I'll play during peak hours is 15/14. Usually 17/15 or so.

Hehe, PTR says that today is his best day ever with being +$75

Don't you hate it when you are up against a spewfish on an Axx flop with AK, and absolutely any ace is in his range, but he has ace rag for two pair?

43vipip: thank god
43vipip: ur an idiot
me: i had top pair!
43vipip: loooooooooooool
43vipip: hahahahahaha
43vipip: and thats why u dgo all in
me: top pair is a good hand
43vipip: hahahahahaha
43vipip: plz stay on that table
me: it is the best pair plus i had the best kicker
43vipip: loooooooooool
43vipip: u go all in with one pair!!!!
43vipip: very prety
43vipip: plz stay here
me: it wasnt just one pair, it was top pair
43vipip: and dont change ur play!!!

43vipip: yes
43vipip: im the donkey

43vipip: "the one pair man"
43vipip: im sorry for beeing the donkey here

43vipip: noooo

43vipip: yeah
43vipip: sit down on my table
me: ok i will try
43vipip: nice
me: dont lose all your money before then
43vipip: ill try

^^^^^^^^^^^

LOL. One tip. Don't say anything remotely resembling strat, like "pair" or "kicker." Just stick to saying things like, "Why are you calling me an idiot, I'm just trying to have a good time and gamble!" Or more subtly "I had AK and you had Ax, I don't know why you won the pot?!? WTF?"

Leveling fish is much more satisfying.

Edit: If they are uber recreational player and chatting a lot and say something to me, I usually engage in some friendly convo if I'm not playing too many tables. +EV except a couple sessions ago I sat down with one of my buddies and he said "Hey xxxx!! Go easy on us tonight OK!" Started feeling slightly guilty about bum hunting lol.
