****OMG its the Rocktober Poker chat thread****

[TheWall]

Dude .02/.05 is so soft. I've ran 36.44bb/100 over 2500 hands and while I'm not running cold--the players just love to pay off my big hands which make up for any slow days I might have.

PS. BRING ON ROCKTOBER!

 

[vanquish]

Pretty easy to be obsessed with anything Jack White plays imo. How was the film?

inspiring/enlightening to someone who doesn't know much about music/making music/the electric guitar

seemed very nice

Aww nobody tried to trick me by promising to send free money.

Too bad it was a SSer, I wanted to felt him for more

I read this as "Too bad I was a SSer". Maybe he did too.

I suck at online poker. That in itself, sucks. I go way over my br and if I have a losing streak I don't drop levels easily, too stubborn to do the right thing because.....wait for it..... I suck at online poker.

I had a couple big wins a long time ago and I use live poker winnings to fund my online play looking for that big win that can't happen because I suck.

I just had that stupid surgery and can't get out to play live to refund my online accounts so now I have no choice but to practice proper brm. Which the obvious response is "duh!" because I should have been doing it all along.

Oct. Goals:
1. Stop being so damned stubborn.
2. Drop levels, although I despise playing at the lower levels, just frigging do it.
3. Stop sucking at online poker! (See if I tell myself to just stop doing something, it will magically happen). Now where the hell are my pain pills, my pelvis is fracking killing me today and I'm a bit grouchy.

This knocked me down to 63 and put me all in for the BB on the very next hand. I'm now up to almost 10bb again. They won't steal it from me that easy!!! LOL

EDIT: Bah, I worked my way back to 12bb, blinded back down to about 9bb and shoved with AQ, getting called by KK, JJ, and a SS with 97. JJ made a full boat and I'm out at 120th.

[eNTy]

nah its more cus BB was short and ur way ahead of AA

 

[S93]

How does villain beeing short increse his hands equity?

 

[eNTy]

it increases yours ?
cus ur only losing equity in the mainpot and not the side pot

im saying u have more than 3% equity cus ur way ahead of AA in the side pot, thus have lots of equity there.

i think
