I swear they just remember that somewhere they heard about this thing called a squeeze play, and the button is clearly doing it here, i'm going to make a hero call with my 77/22 b/c he's squeezing with air.
Btn's 3bet stat was a whole...... um 0%, over 145 hands lol

I very much doubt they thought anything else but: pocket pair, I can hit a set, ARRIN.

 

[Chris_TC]

Either the blue line or the red line should be making me a profit, amirite? I'm probably doing something wrong then.

Of course, doing silly things like stacking off the flopped nut flush on a turn that pairs the board doesn't help. Getting the money in drawing dead prevents me from claiming my All-in EV is so shitty. I get what I deserve. Stacking off badly all the time. Silly rabbit.

 

[ChuckTs]

sigh i feel like i should just play 5/10 so i can go busto and have a reason to shoot myself

dude as soon as you get over your extreme paranoia of people finding out your identity by way of voice recognition, I'd be happy to sweat with you. Not that I'd be any help HU, but it could be fun.

Busto just into the money $377 profit (buy-in was FPPs) so all good.

Shame nearly got a big stack

 

[Irexes]

You cash player you.

That's exactly what I thought was interesting about it.

hehe i never know exactly how bad you're running or how much you're winning because you're always so vague about it
:heart:


btw chuck yea that's possible i will perhaps just download a program or take hits of helium while chatting tho

 

[belladonna05]

I cried over that boss....next weekend for sure

 

[Irexes]

In other news 45,000 VPPs so far this year. If I could actually start winning consistently at Ring I'd be dangerous.

I think I am a donkey >.>..Oh well.

I need some good gansta rap for grinding purposes.

ChuckTs I'm looking at you.

It's not really gangsta rap but for some reason I really like to listen to Girl Talk when I'm grinding. It's not what you would think from the name it's just a mash up of a bunch of songs. His older stuff sucks but I really like his newest CD, it's called Feed the Animals. You might hate it but for some reason I play great when it's on

 

[eNTy]

Is that feed the animals ?

 

[SeanyJ]

Is that feed the animals ?

Feed the Animals is his newest CD yeah, it came out in 2008, Night Ripper is another CD of his that is good but anything before that hurts my head

 

[Jagsti]

Playing in the sunday million is such fun!

I think the best hand I had in 2 hours was k9o, which I eventually shoved with LDO!

At least I cashed in the Turbo Takedown!

 

[SeanyJ]

I'm at 31k chips at the second break in the Million, good for 709th place at the moment. I never realized how far you had to go to cash in this. My table has a couple awful players on it right now I hope I don't get moved before they go busto.

 

[eagle jim]

Alright enty....i am leaving work get your k3 double suited ready

 

[eNTy]

It's like 2 am but I thought I would put my grindin music to good use anyway.

 

[c9h13no3]

I really like his newest CD, it's called Feed the Animals.

+1

I'm going to see him in April. Gonna get my white boy dance groove on.

 

[tenbob]

Got like 250 bonus to clear on i-donker in the next 2 weeks. Now I see the major problems with the software there, tiling 6 tables is a LOT different to stacking 20. Seriously 1 misclick means timing out on ever single muther****iing table, unless you can randomly guess what table action is on and hit it, then for some magical reason the whole system works again. FFS, annoying as hell, hi point was timing out of AA in a 4 bet pot while 3 betting KK on another table and timing out on both. Low point was flopping quads and stacking ace high.

Meh profitable site, but mega-multitabling i rekon is almost out there unless you really (seriously) grew up with the client.

 

[eNTy]

Can't you move the tables you def dont want to miss action on out of the stack to like a corner in your screen.

 

[tenbob]

Can't you move the tables you def dont want to miss action on out of the stack to like a corner in your screen.

Can't resize the tables either, my "pure" profit this month is like $300, but ship rake back and bonus money and its more like $600. I shall take, especially when i run like dog shit againt the terrible ss players when i have anysort of AK, AQ vs pairs or 1010/JJ vs over cards type horse crap.

If you have Vista you could just look at the preview of every table when you hover your mouse over it on the task bar. You probably would've thought of that if you had Vista but I'm just throwing it out there
