This is what I would do, and I'm not being the least bit "jokey" on the subject. You hire some kneebreakers, I'm not joking. If you know people in low-places do what the other guy said, stake out the casino, get one you recognize and break his face, take his money, then get him to direct you to the house and smash up his place I wouldnt let those ****ers get away.

Is it any good? I've read some tells and said out loud "wow", like the looking away from the flop and the chip glance, I used to do this stuff even... haha.

Well you've been here longer than I have so you obviously know more about the guy. :roll: I've just been reading flames from lots of people and think it's a little out of hand, have I done something wrong?

He has said so himself he plays the 10c limit. His whole quest to earn 1000 dollar posts are REVOLVED around it.

So I have 2 solutions for you, stop playing phoney poker. Or just play your game, everyone has a system, but everyone needs at least 100x bb bankroll coming into those games, so put more money into your bankroll and you wont be restricted as much, as for your position problem I don't know what else to tell you, everyone needs to pay for blinds... and in .25, .50 games I down at least 10-20 bucks a night into blinds... of course... I win it back.

I'm not a huge fan of Smash's ego, but let's face it he has the right to be here just like anyone else. He isn't a superstar, he plays 10 cent games online, to me online poker is B.S poker because the game should be played in a real setting... not only that but I don't like how often people get godly pocket pairs every round.The point is Smash is a pretty funny guy when he makes fun of XxEddie, and he gives good advice the odd time. The bottom pair "perfect read" thread he was absolutely right. I couldn't say it better myself. So before you go off and put down Smash for all of this stuff yo

You have one option with a pair of 3's with an A-K-3 board. You fold... I'm sorry if you are Mike McDerrmot... but the point is that the game of poker isn't like the movies. You play the math. then you play the player. The funny thing is you said you "read" him perfectly... but you didn't. After the river you would have folded your set. Remember you can read people so well? Guess not.

This is a 5$ buy in, 30 chips tourney, winner gets 55 bucks. First hand comes and I fold and I think 2 guys go all-in and lose, to some other guy who picks up 60 chips and now has 3:1 chip lead on everyone else.HAND 2:9 people left at the table, I'm 2 away from the button and I'm dealt :spadesk: :clubsk: Well what happened was 3 players limped behind me, so I raised 10 chips. They call. Flop comes: :hearts7: :spades5: :clubs3: . I know what you're thinking: Someone got the STRAIGHT!.. no, 2 players checked I went all in. I knew there was no one alive that would call a late raise for a th

never cheat on your friends. I've been wanting to bottom deal for a while but I need to find morons.

If you want to scam people out of money the best way is dealing from under the deck... if I played a bunch of drunk people I didn't know I would use my chops and clean them out.

Pfft, Message In a Bottle > Roxxane :-)

I'm still small time (haven't been to a casino yet) so I believe it's around $40.

theresa113 you know I was joking about the frat boy remark right? :-) . I would love to play 15 hours of poker straight. Hell who wouldn't? The longest I've played was an all-nighter that lasted 8-hours. I swear time goes by so fast and you almost feel like it was over before it started. Of course the next morning your head feels like this: :wall:

You lost money to a bunch of drunken frat boys? :wink:Happy New Year :-)

Welcome Toronto chap! I'm a Toronto lad myself.. 8)

So this guy flops top pair and top kicker and raises him, who says he will go all in? The guy was obviously over aggressive, the only hand I can pin this guy on is maybe 10-10. Even if he had the A-A it's not that big of a problem because the guy probably puts you on a two-pair. Later on you could go all in and he would fold. Without a doubt.EDIT: I know everyone says A-A is the cats pajamas, but seriously when you havent hit an ace by river they aren't looking so hot as they did Pre-flop...

Start a bankroll and make an account at a bank with an RRSP or something and just load every peice of profit in there?

I can say honestly luck is a moderatly big factor of the game, but it bothers me because you can't just blame the luck. Hell you can't blame it PERIOD! The only one to fault is yourself for losing a hand, even if you lose a hand you don't have to be at fault, some guy has 2 outs to go on for the river and catches it, you still played properly by raising. People like the person in the posters story you just want to smack. You can use luck as an excuse at the end of a night with a player who hit all his outs, sure. But you can not go on hand by hand saying "lucky river" "lucky this" "lucky that"

When you get to Daniels position that is usually what someone Should put in there. I doubt Daniel is going to lose a million bucks at the casino so it's there just for variety and insurance probably.

The guy is so stupid and ignorant, he feels that he always has the best hand. You get a flop like 10-10-rag you would ASSUME that someone has a ten when he raises, you folded with one of the strongest starting hands there is because you know what it's worth, the guy thinks poker is based on luck... that's what makes him pathetic.Good luck with your winnings :-)

Judging by his actions he either has a Jack, (which you beat him because you have better kicker) or a godly pocket pair. Raise the dummy, he obviously is way too aggressive.

That if you are in that position. You can understand that your girlfriend isn't EXCITED by the game of poker like you are, she might like the game... but to people who label themselves "poker players" play for two reasons.1) Money2) The love of the damn game.I swear I could give up any video game, any good date, and throw it out the window if I could play poker all night. A girlfriend probably wouldn't. So subconciously you want to make yourself look like some big time winner and stud, you want to impress the girl.. let's face it. So you would play stupid bluffs and crap hands rather than dis

But I think I'm going to wait a while before I play strangers, I'm not that good enough to move out of the norm of playing my buddies and getting easy wins.

What are you implying? I don't think sexual preference had anything to do with my post kiddo.

I don't want to run the risk of sounding like some buttkisser or some corn dog, but I really respect the fact that Daniel has time for his fans and posts on these boards. It's good that there are people still out there who care. Just thought I'd come out and say it.
