Heh, that's when it all comes together!

Oh, man, I can't wait to post the hands I've cracked this dude with. He's either drunk or doesn't know the rules of poker.

thats gross, when the move to FT?

thats freaking awesome

you shouldn't 50NL plays eerily similar and you have plenty of roll if your at $1500.

Dunno if that was aimed at me... but I'm a paranoid mofo. I don't like loaning people money when I don't have immediate access to break into their house and turn their pets into ashes.

Is it not healthy that's the first place I go with that?

No life will treat you fine.

Now go clean your guns and check the emergency food supplies.

it's only money - now that's not me saying I'll loan anyone money but if it was like $10-20, I wouldn't really care. I wouldn't mind staking someone if the terms were right, even for a larger amount of $. Not like I am turning it into profit for myself after my boat over boat debacle.

For the record, Naismith and I played HU4ROLLZ @ .5/1 (well, my roll) for all $41 that I had on a certain site. Being the gentleman that he is, he even bought in for $42 to cover me.

Some key hands:

He raises SB to 3, I call QJo, we get it AI on the KTx flop. He's got AA and wins despite being a big underdog.
He raises SB to 3, I call 45s, we get it AI on the A65 flop. He's got AQ and the odds hold up as I river a 5.
With a $24 stack, he limps in the SB, I raise to $18 (not a misclick) with AJo. He times down and calls. The flop is 679 and he shoves. I call. He has 45o. He makes the 14th nut low straight on the river with an 8.
A few hands later, he limps again and I raise to $30 of my $33 with 44. He times down and types "gg" and shoves on me. I call. He has 25s. The flop is JT2. I somehow manage to win.
Next hand, I open shove Q5o from the SB into his $12 stack in the BB. He snap calls with 22. I mean, who calls all in with 22? I flop a queen and my roll is now $78.05!

I'm being permitted to write this off as a charitable donation.

This is this poker EV graph of this dude who ran $500 into like $85,000 in under 2 weeks on FT.

Here is the thread about it on p2p.

It's sick.

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthre...166&page=13

Yeah, I read about that a couple days ago. When you think that the opposite of that is just as possible (less likely because you wouldn't generally keep jumping stakes when losing), that's when you realise that omaha is a sick, sick, game.

if anyone here can run like that, I'm willing to stake you right now.

I can run like that. It might take 10,000 shots at it, but I can run like that.

Ship me $500 and I'll give it a go.

I ran $100 in $3500 playing HU shootouts on FT in two weeks last summer.
I cashed and dashed most of it.

lol @ sklansky bucks on that graph

That graph is sick funny.

Poker is ridiculous.

today is my 7 year anniversary @ work, they made me go out and drink beers for lunch


weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! god I'm drunk

didn't move to tilt, just switched some money for someone and then they decided they didn't need it, so I thought I would blow it in tourneys.

i love liquid lunch. time to go home.

looks like ur doing a good job of it donk

half way there. I only run good when you are railing calling me a luck sack in the chat box

i think the actual line is "nate runs like god"

That graph makes my 2008. I can't imagine anything that I see between now and 2009 will be funnier.

LOL MISCLICK FTW!!!!! I don't need Krup I don't need anybody!!!

I'm assuming the open raise is the misclick? Because calling the shove is fine.

not against this villain it isn't.


Nothing like playing a whole tourney on a table then getting moved 25 places from the cash and have no reads what so ever.


GRRR


/brag post

Against JJ+, AK, it's breakeven to call.

Put AQ in his range and it's an easy call.

alright well maybe in that case.... played 3 hands all tourney up to this point so I was pretty sure it was premium, also it is starting to get towards the bubble, some nits people will fold AK on the bubble.

I dunno i am not a tourney player at all.

It probably makes little difference either way tbh, but it's not a bad call by any means.

i need a hand, I have had j2 for 55 straight hands.... also the players at my table are not folding they are reshoving like mad. Just need to wait for a hand have it hold and profit


UH OH AKh


Allin waiting my fate....


stole the blinds 20k

gonna rail with ya for a while Nate - nenolimit if you have the observer chat on

ahhh i was wondering, What happened to Matt_The_Donkey?

I decided to retire that one for the new name, even when I played well I would get hassled so I went with something more low-key. Sadly my play hasn't improved that much

the bubble has burst... weeee now to bad I only have half of average.


Lame 85th for $43


AK<55 allin preflop

rough, gg nate

no bored at work today. i have a training seminar but will be home by 1pm. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

As promised, these are all the all in hands from a 17-minute session yesterday with a player who I assume must have been drunk. They're not in order and the names have been changed to protect my buddy list:

Donk.

Why are you taking all of Tim's roll?

1. My roll is untouchable.

2. I'd crush Naismith heads up, so he has to fabricate names and HH to look like a winner

Yeah, those are some horrible plays, even for you.

Outcome: Hero wins $109.

I probably played this pretty poorly, but it made sense at the time. I'm getting more comfortable with $50max now too.

Tskillz played like a champ in those HH. Did you see the flopped flush to reel in Jay there? Perfection!

dear god that has to be the worst NL player ever

AP has to have the worst poker players of any major site out there.

They also have the best superuser accounts.

Do I take the good or the bad?

I thought I could rep the missed heart draw there. I was fairly sure he had an A and was just hoping it wasn't a two pair A. Luckyaments.

Shhh.

I'm done trying to improve at poker. I'm just trying to find people worse than me.

lol then you will be a winning poker player.
