just an example of the thousands of fish similar to this onehttp://fullcontactpoker.com/poker-forums/v...p=320959#320959

i honestly don't understand why you have to berate a player for a simple misunderstanding of a game he had never played. Were you one of those kids in grade school who when a first grader wet his pants you would prance around screaming "Johnny went Pee-pee in his panties" in desperate hope that the other first graders would think you were cool because you didn't go Pee-pee in your pants?

billy "of course i peed my pants, you're not cool until you pee your pants!"hey everyone look, ernie peed his pants too!

jdep just saw this thread....just want you to know i'm watching and giving you support, good luck man! anybody out there sweating multitables i'm in a 5/1 limit omaha hi/lo with about 60 people left at party poker...screen name "troyomac"

[disconnected with aces]

What's worse is that when I rebooted and got the hand histories for my time away, I had been dealt AA at another tabpreflop! Aarghle and folded just wondering how you were able to see hand history for the hands you missed...whenever i get disconnected from party, it always skips the hands that i didn't get to see in my HH...is there some trick i don't know about?

Go to any table, click on last hand, look at the bottom of the pop up window.Check e-mail me my hand histories, and select the last 20 hands or so.It will send them in the text of an e-mail to whatever address you have registered with them.

cool, that is a swell idea thanks econ... btw, i'm playing in a multi table limit omaha hi lo on party poker right now screen name "troyomac" if anyones interested..close to 10K in chips, average close to 8K about 70 players left from a field of 530

[fun topic.. chip tricks or chip stacks]

my favourite thing to do with chips is throw em really high and splash the pot. one time i won a hand and had more chips than i started with...so i made a separate stack beside the first one. it didn't last long.

[looks like a horrible call, but actually...]

i/m drunk sorry

[looks like a horrible call, but actually...]

OK, here's how I understand the stacks:If walktheplank calls and wins, he win the tournament.If walktheplank calls and loses, he has 200 and his opponent has 1800...he has about a 10% chance of winning.If walktheplank folds, he has 850 and his opponent has 1150...a 42% chance of winning.So for the call to be worth it:P + (1-P).1 > .42.9 P +.1 > .42.9 P > .32P > .35If walktheplank thinks he has greater than a 35% chance of winning, he should call.  He will at least this chance of winning unless he strongly believes he is dominated.What am I missing here?Maybe IF walktheplank thinks he is a better player than his opponent, he may believe he has better than a 42% chance to win when he has 42% of the chips.  But why should he necessarily believe that?   Maybe he doesn't want to make the mistake of overestimating his ability in a situation that is generally dominated by luck.Most of the other players in this thread seem to think he is a terrible player.  If he's such a terrible player, why shouldn't he take the (shade under a) coin flip to win the whole thing?

Are you saying that if some random fish had 1100 chips to phil ivey's 900, that the fish has a better chance of beating him??? not a prayer my friend.

[just a crazy crazy typical party poker hand]

hey man i'm not mad or anything, i just thought it was a neat hand... lots of pocket pairs, some of them hitting turning to quads, a nut flush flopped...amazing stuff that i have never seen a flop hit so many people so perfectly, not to mention the great turn and river

[my shaky laydown(weak)]

depending on how much money the 2 donkeys had left ( you may have mentioned it, i'm just too lazy to go and recheck it) say you had 800 to start the hand and the kid had 1000. i don't think you should even worry about the donkeys hands because even if after the final board, the pretty lady with less money wins, and the old drunk has the 2nd best hand...if you can get the kid to go all in for all his money....you only have to be beating HIM to make profit on the hand, and there is a great chance that he is drawing slim.
