Yeah the only worst thing is having AA and everyone folding especially when you are low stack. It seems like everyone knows what you are holding and they just spite foldwaisichy said:
Not sure anyone is going to top this...john_entony said:The worst thing about poker, besides all the reasons you listed, is when the lights go out in your town because of russian missile attacks on energy facilities. Last winter I won 3 satellites in a row at Titans Events on PokerStars. I had a ticket to the final satellite - $530. There were 10 players in the final satellite and I started that tournament by doubling my chips. And then... my lights went out. I got eliminated by blinds in that tournament.
Yeah, the only reason I didn't throw my laptop out the window at that moment was that I didn't spend money on the buy-in, but went through the 3 satellites in stages. But it was still very frustrating. But there is something to remember and your topic reminded me of such an unpleasant story.waisichy said:
I sympathise with you, I'm also from Ukraine and my electricity was cut off several times a day. The internet also didn't work or worked very badly because of that, and I lost a lot of tournaments, but it's nothing compared to what our soldiers are going through at the front....😥john_entony said:The worst thing about poker, besides all the reasons you listed, is when the lights go out in your town because of russian missile attacks on energy facilities.

what is wrong with taking 2nl seriously?pentazepam said:
try not making the same mistakes over and over againmartDdart said:
It's a waste of time if you do not think it's extremely entertaining. Plus if people are taking 2NL seriously what about 100NL and above - pretty much dead if you want to earn money from poker. Then I started playing online some sites had 25NL and 1/2 limit as the lowest starting level. So the development is depressing to me.ph_il said:
