James, gah, yeah, fold those hands. First one is kinda close against a lagtard, but the second is muckaroo.Left my winamp running before I went out last night, and when I got back my playlist had found its way to a file called "Show 121305," which was a recorded podcast of The Circuit from like 2006. Ah, the good ole days of poker: Matusow calling Patrik Antonius "Patrick Antonio" and Phil Laak "Phil Lock," some advertisements for Naked Poker, a segment of poker strategy featuring Josh Arieh, an honorable mention of GIGABET, Michael Mizrachi bragging that he won over $3 million on Ultimate Bet, and some cool instrumental track I'd like to be able to identify.

Its called tilt, brah

[Ninja Ace 1]

Even though I hate giving away my gold mines... Any 10NL grinder who'd like a change of pace and can stomach high volume / high variance should pm me. Oh, and ur roll has to be on FT to do this. I say 10NL bc it's about the optimal roll size to be doing this on

[KingJames 11]

So I took a funky line here. I thought he'd bet a wide range if I checked the flop and he'd level himself to calling some under pairs as well as Kx on the turn...he's like 29/12/5 over a small sample fwiw...Feral Cow Poker Hand ConverterFull Tilt No-Limit Hold'em $0.10/$0.25 - 6 playersUTG+1: $29.37 CO: $7.32 Button: $26.95 SB: $25.00 BB: $25.00 UTG: $34.57 (Hero)Preflop: ($0.35) Hero is UTG with (6 players)Hero raises to $0.85, 2 folds, Button calls $0.85, 2 foldsFlop: ($2.05) (2 players)Hero checks, Button bets $1.44, Hero calls $1.44Turn: ($4.93) (2 players)Hero bets $3.50,

I guess it's OK; every line sucks against a reg on that texture OOP. Here, you can say that you may get looked up lighter because you're taking an odd line. I can see that. Even still, if you show heat on a KQQ flop coming in from EP, after having checked otf, you've got kings full always amirite (imwrong)?edit: No matter what, to get his moneyz you need to cooler him basically, and hope he's got a queenlolz of course AQ is fine...you have a FULLHOUSE.

[hartman72 0]

Why not AQ?

[Ninja Ace 1]

KJ... your bet is to big to get spazz value... less than half the pot on the turn

Ha, yeah I just took a silly line and was trying to justify... he had QJ and raised my turn bet and I shoved and he called... so sick cooler brahAlso, at the home game last night (we played a donkament) and I raised the button with 52s and stacked a guy who held 99 on a 553 flop... he donked bet and 3bet shoved over my raise. He flipped his nines like they were the nizzles and I said I had a 5... the look was pricelessFollowed by 10 minutes of him asking if I really raised preflop with 52s, binkThen I lost a huge flip AKs<QQ w/e tho...

I thought deuces were wild

[trystero 0]

Weird............he knows you rate to be strong by having raised preflop, since he's in such disbelief that you'd raise pf w/trash, but not so strong as to be ahead of 99 on the 553 board. Ah, donks.

its great. They put you on AK when you raise!!!!!!!!!I would not tell him I wouldn't stack off with 77 there, but I did tell him that I got really lucky

[QED 4]

Just got slow rolled by some random with aces, time to take an automatic weapon to the nearest crowded public space.

Ouch...Here are a couple I just finished with. I am curious to hear what people think about bet size on the river on the first one. My thought was that I know he either hit something or also has an over pair, but not AA cause he has shoved flop twice so far when he had aces. So I wanted to make sure he called.Full Tilt Poker $0.02/$0.05 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players - View hand 711770The Official DeucesCracked.com Hand History ConverterUTG: $6.77Hero (MP): $5.03CO: $5.00BTN: $9.75SB: $4.95BB: $5.85Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is MP with K K 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.17, 3 folds, BB calls $0.12Flop: ($0.36) 9 3 5 (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets $0.30, BB calls $0.30Turn: ($0.96) 8 (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets $0.90, BB calls $0.90River: ($2.76) 5 (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets $2, BB calls $2Full Tilt Poker $0.02/$0.05 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players - View hand 711770The Official DeucesCracked.com Hand History ConverterUTG: $6.77Hero (MP): $5.03CO: $5.00BTN: $9.75SB: $4.95BB: $5.85Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is MP with K K 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.17, 3 folds, BB calls $0.12Flop: ($0.36) 9 3 5 (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets $0.30, BB calls $0.30Turn: ($0.96) 8 (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets $0.90, BB calls $0.90River: ($2.76) 5 (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets ???This hand just played its self...

I played a lot of hands today. Started off well but took a turn for the worse and I went on mega tilt. I did manage to win back half my loses after I took a short break and I'm still up for the month so its not all bad. This was mostly 50nl HU which I had been crushing all month until todays trainwreck.Uploaded with ImageShack.us
