Ohh - good luck! Remember you can choose between that one and the warm-up.
 
Any one ever play the cap tables on tilt ?
Are they anything like PL ? What are the players like ?
 
I feel like punching myself. I played bad/tilted/spewed/got back to break but carried on and then went back to -3BIs/didnt have a productive revision session.

Arggh what a bad day!! I suck !! I dont deserve to be a winning player!! I suck!!

I havent felt like this for like 2 months !
 
ok im actually going to play some in may after finding out about stars epic uk vip bonus thingy

RARRRRRR
 
Do u still play donkngos or are u playing cash this month DM ?

I had an ausum day, spewed and swong like tarzan this morning when I was playing some 50nl for fun and that cost me over a buy in.
Then shipped 4 buy ins at 25nl on Everest in 900 hands because apparently it's even softer than I remember.
And I grinded enough on tilt to get Iron in 24 days. Which was also + a buy in after I got my shit together in that sesh.

So a +3buy in day is pretty good. I hope I can keep running this good for the rest of the month..

I feel your pain dude, 🙁

Well lol i played like 150 hands of 200nl on party afterwards and made $550. But everytime i try to play nl100 on stars to start a roll i literally have like 20% W$SD and can't beat anybody. I spose it is better to run bad at nl100 than nl200 but i just get so sick and tired of busting out on stars. It sucked earlier coz i wanted to get 2 rolls going somewhat concurrently and it never happened, but it seriously sucks now that stars may be my only option in the near future. If i could just deposit a couple thousand it would be fine, but using echecks it is like a 500USD limit.

ENTY: Question for you - had you ever played real money at tilt before they gave you rakeback?
 
anyone who wants coaching on how to lose buyin after buyin with the flopped nuts to backdoor draws, seek me out. been rocking at that this month

You know like the usual $1 sngs when I had no roll and no experience. When I started poker and didn't play serious. One day I installed stars, had a problem connecting, googled the error, found cardschat (THANK YOU GOOGLE), someone awesome helped me in PM and later I downloaded tilt from the tilt site.

Then they started giving out rb to older players last month. I think I was already on the list cause I requested it like a month prior. Sent an email because shrog mentioned it here and a couple of days later I got it.

But no not serious grinding/poker on tilt prior to rb. I had rakeback on a 2nd account I made but no money on tilt. Then when I got a roll going I mailed them to ask if I could keep the rb account because I had 2 and no money/deposit history on either and I was looking to deposit. So was basically asking if they wanted my action or not and ofc they closed the rb one 🙂.

Getting owned for stacks when closing down tables has to be the most life tilting thing ever. I absolutely hate it when that happens. Cause you can't even continue hulkspewing cause tables are closing :<
 
I was more referring to the fact i was slowrolled by top set more than the fact i lost
 
Won $300 in a .25/.50 home game
with a $100 pot with quad nines

shipitplz.
kthxbai.

It's two streets poker. You need to find really bad fishes for that to be beatable after rake.

Do you like sitting at a table full of shortstacks? Then play cap.

Anyway, just got back from WV game, $50 tourney I'm around starting stack but blinds are up to the point where I have about 30 BBs. CO opens for 3x I'm in BB I ship it in with 99 guy tanks forever. At this point I figure I'm ahead and he's got like a lower pair, possibly a flip like AT, or maybe even just like A3 so I'm actually hoping for a call. He literally takes about 3-4 minutes and finally puts the chips in and makes the call. His hand? Pocket kings. Really? I figure I shoulda hit a 9 just because of karma but alas karma didn't agree with me. I was left with less than a BB and busted out next hand.

But then I go to the cash table, 50nl but people actually buy-in normal/deep as opposed to most live games. I know live 6x is a common raise but here one guy open raised to $12 once, more common was like $5-7 for him. Anyway same guy straddles for $5, his left folds, I'm next to act and look down at AKo, I make it 17. Not only do 3 people call, a 4th shoves over the top for another $8 so betting is not re-opened and the original raiser calls, I can only call not shove, and everyone else calls. Flop is low paired I believe like 866 2 clubs, straddler checks I shove and everyone calls. Turn is blank club, river is Kc. I'm not sure I saw everyone's hand but in what I think was a 6-way all-in not one had a club or set and my TPTK held up as the best hand to win a huge pot.

Bit later on same guy same situation basically on this time instead of AK I have AA and only 1 call then straddler calls. Flop comes Axx I figure I don't get 3 streets from anything worse other than sets which get all money in regardless so I check back. Turn is another A to give me quads, ch/ch I bet like half pot and guy who called from the blinds makes it like 4x giving us each about pot bet left if I call. So I think of the hands he can have, figure sets and air basically, figure getting money from set on river regardless and this guy was aggro enough to try to continue on the river so I just flat. He checks, I jam, he claims to have folded a set (talking about Ax for boats better than his) but pretty sure he was just full of shit. Either way nice pot.

Basically just played value-based game aside from the few people who knew how to fold, although I made a mistake thinking there was a guy who would fold in another hand:

straddle to 2, re-straddle to 6, I re-straddle to 12. 2 callers, I have QTs almost raise but I figure I have no FE and this is a good hand to see a flop multi-way. Flop=KQx guy leads into me other guy folds I call. Turn's a blank ch/ch, river's A he checks nervously and it's so obvious he doesn't like the A. Now I have showdown value but I figure bluffing is worth it to get him off his kings and obviously I still win the hands I would have before. But obviously he doesn't fold his K9 for a $45 river bet and just to show that he made such a great read that I was on a bluff he asked "what were you betting on???" I almost said something like "well if you're surprised you won when you called, why'd you call?" but instead just said "betting you'd fold, nice call", lol. Some other hands, C/R bluffed WVH with an over and a gutter but he only had AK for overs anyway but there was some dead money from another guy in between us who also folded to my raise.

Anyway ended up cashing out for about $350 from my initial $60 buy-in so did alright even after the -55 in the tourney.

Had fun, gonna sleep now, Nationals game tomorrow, then like I said gonna do some April review.
