My mouse driver or something is ****ed up, I have to navigate using my keyboard!

 

[icemonkey9]

To Zach - I will offer you more motivational coaching for a 15% commission from now on

To All - 4 out suckouts on the river SUCK. The term SUCKout is apt.

FP - You have giant stones for that play. HUGE.

ChuckTs - Try your mouse on another USB port. Otherwise try your mouse on another computer. If the mouse works fine on the other computer then it is your system.

Enty - Don't feel ashamed. I think most of us started at 10nl or 25nl. Dont think for a second the big boys here dont remember where they started.

Just wanted to get that out there.

I only rent.

 

[Chris_TC]

Oh man, that sucks. But fear not. For only $4,999 per hour I will let you own me at $1/$2. I will fold to your every bet and every raise. Guaranteed!
Sound good? Of course it does. Stop renting. Start owning. Now.

And if you order right away, I will even let you two-table-own me. For free! At no extra cost! Don't wait, own!

You're so cheap. Both you and vanquish play $2/$4 and yet you only offer him to own you at $1/$2?

Got past my first 1,000 hands and have started multi-tabling at 5NL. Makes it more exciting and obviously make profits faster...

[F Paulsson]

What was his read on the situation?


A while back I folded JJ when A6 donked the flop into 4 of us, TT stacked the A6

Well, he had no idea what he was supposed to have done, really. And I don't blame him, I put him in a really tough spot with $500 behind my raise to $100. Knowing what I had, flatting would probably have been his best move, but he has to anticipate button shoving over him, so he's essentially deciding whether to stack off with KK on a 6-high board with 300BB stacks right on the flop.

After seeing the results he was feeling understandably a bit miffed about missing a ~$1250 profit in that hand.

How do you get people to spew stacks off to you?

 

[switch0723]

Another long session of HULHE tonight, although i forgot how swingy that game is having not played it for ages, had a 1.2k breakeven stretch tonights, fpps ftw there. I think i actually prefer it to nl at the moment since im more willing to sit down and play long limit sessions. I'm probably gonig to stay there for a while until im up to the the large stakes like 10/20 purely because the only people that play that are awsome players, and then ill probably move back to nl.

ACK decidements, i don't know what im gonna do since i like playing both, i might just alternate each day purely coz i can imo

Unfortunately, usually by returning the favour.

You're betting for value, right?

 

[Irexes]

I've got a sneaky feeling I might have been

 

[switch0723]

why not check your 5 with showdown value, let the table see your 7,5 then rake in the chips when you 3bet with big hands? Just as another option

Could be true, but I doubt I'm actually ahead versus even two superfish on draws, lots of ways that could have a tiny part of it.




And yup to the love for Chris' graph. Twelve kinds of awesome

Woa nice profit man. Do you buy in for the full $10 or $5 ?
That is one hell of a profit at 5 nl for 1k hands, I only just got out of the negative after almost 3k lol.
