wtf tatta has killed the final table of the $215 pl omaha/hl tourny and is now HU with a 4:1 chiplead and they are discussing a deal, wtf. The greatest HU O8 player, is dicussing a deal with a 4:1 chiplead, he was the 1 who suggested it aswell

umm maybe there's variance and deals can take skill into account? By icm/chip-stack (same since they're HU) he's 80% to win but what if they cut a deal where he gets like 85% or something like that? They can make a deal based on what they think his likelihood of winning is and then they decrease variance while he still gets the majority of the money.

ok, i didn't really understand what you just said, but im sure it was clever speak proving how i was wrong or something, but still surely when your the best player in the world at a game, and have a 4:1 chiplead, a chop just isn't the way forward.

In the end, 2nd place was ~$4800, 1st ~$7000 and they agreed to a deal where tatta got ~$6400 and the other guy ~$5400. Surely that is a dream deal for the guy in second, unless your maths proves me wrong ldo

Maybe he thought it was more worth his time to just take the chop and move on to bigger things???

One of my tables this session.

Obviously cursed, should quit now.

I've lost count of all the quads, straight flushes, and a royal in the last week and half, but here's another to add. He went broke with an A6 of spades.

eNTy · Feb 21, 2009

Saturday night is the night where everybody calls pot size bets with shit and hits their flush on river. It's the night where kings lose to quads, its the night where JJ turns a 2 outer for set over set.

I love this.

I don't get how I always lose on saturday when it's vs the worst people of the whole week.
I have flopped a billion sets (23.7% ffs) and honestly in 110 minutes have not won a single stack, with any hand.
70/40's know how to fold, flush comes either on turn or on river, etc etc

Sigh, whine whine no one cares.

Know the feeling! I had almost recovered my losses in ring for the day when my set of tens gets ruined by some moron calling me with 22 and hits a four card flush. Best part... I had just bumped back up to 100bb's.

So they basically both already have 4800, playing for 2200. tatta got 1600 of it while other guy got 600. With a 4:1 chip lead that doesn't make any sense lol. Even if he was even money against the other guy he shoulda gotten 4/5 of the remaining prize pool instead of 1600/2200 and if he has a skill edge he shoulda gotten more.

Thanks, enty! I needed that!

BelgoSuisse · Feb 22, 2009

200nl so far

Moving up to 200nl was a good idea it seems...

eNTy · Feb 22, 2009

I have your graph/10 Belgo.

HIGH FIVE o/

very nice. :congrats: :congrats:

FWIW, i never really crushed 25nl. I think i only beat it for 2 BB/100 over 60k hands. 200nl is much easier, imo.

25nl graph below. rollercoaster...

dg1267 · Feb 22, 2009

This is getting ridiculous! And check out the guy to my right! LMAO He showed up with 66, so not a horrible play in a rebuy.

But I would trade a winning session any day for these hands. I've made a total of around 5 bucks off of 'em.

Stop making quads!

Poker is most definitely rigged, imo.

The Shrog · Feb 22, 2009

Can anyone give me ranges for what is high, normal, and low for stats like 3bet, Limp/call, WTSD, steal...and maybe even Cbet/ fold to Cbet? I was thinking of color coding more of the stats in my HUD.
