I'm up $1.09 after four tabling cash games for a while and I'm calling it quits. Sundays suck.

God you're so full of shit. Every sunday you come in here and basically claim to get runner runner quad'd out of half of the tournaments you play.If any of you ever stopped focusing on how the world is apparently against you and started actually spending that time improving I guarantee you'd see a large leap in your results.

weeee, missed you this week!

Tehtoe, that is a real **** post. I keep getting ****ed by poker also and you, sir, seem to have lost all understanding of what it is like to struggle with this cocksucking game. Why don't you look back at your successes and get the **** off of people tits when they make a post like that. Smarten the **** up and don't be an arsehole. I don't care if it's JSpencer or me or some random clown who got bad beat out of a $2 tourney, show a little class while you have some $$$ in your account and realise we are paying our dues just like you once did.Go read my bad beat thread and remember where you came from.Some bad beats, suck outs and more...

LOL @ the bolded. Just b/c he's had success doesn't mean he's had to struggle through the shit that all tournament players struggle through 9 days out of 10. You just don't hear about itI'll give you one tip...noone gives a shit about bad beats, and one good step you can take to becoming a better poker player is stop complaining so much and in such an overly emotional manner. Stop letting hands get to you so much, once they're finished, they're finished.. The bad beat forum is not a place you should frequent often, if at all.This stuff just happens if you play a lot. Believe me....I play a lot.edit - I mean wtf at "remember where you came from"...that is so stupid..he didn't learn how to play good poker in the bad beat forum.as for the whole JSpencer thing, he seems to just make a lot of stuff up...of course it's impossible to say...but some of the stuff that happens to him every week hasn't happened to me for 6 months. I think I've been overquadded once in 3 years. Obv I run good.

Yeah, you have some points, but my point is that someone with success and a bankroll shouldn't really be a twat to someone who is struggling with whatever aspect of the game. Personally, I don't think JSpencer is making up this stuff and quoting his "overquadding" example, which probably only happened once but may have been mentioned more than that, isn't really being fair. Are you sure people don't care about bad beats? Because I sure see a lot of them posted, not just by low success people like me, but by people who cashed the day before for a few K and they're complaining? "FML" from someone who has a 5 figure BR? I care less about that person's bad beat than I do for a player like JSpence, who's pain I feel every time I get SNAFU'd out of a tourney by some fukko making a wingding call.I'm not trying to negate Tehtoe's own accomplishments or struggles. They are valid. It's his ****ing tone that pissed me off.

This post makes no sense at all.I find it astonishing that you have nearly 10k posts here and act like you just started playing the game yesterday. I mean, how many times do we have to hear over, and over, and over, and over how poker keeps screwing you and how unlucky you continually run? Do you ever use that energy to review hand histories, study the game, plug leaks, anything? Or do we have to hear this week after week after week after week?Do yourself a giant favor and just quit the game. I mean, a bad beat thread that shows how terribly unlucky you are and no one else is? Grow up.

Clearly, you have a comprehension problem. I bet you enjoy the Transformer movies.Do I think I'm the only one who gets bad beat? No. Why is there a bad beat forum? OH RIGHT! To post bad beats!!! And, for the most part, I keep mine in my thread and don't really care who looks at them or replies. Other than that, you're a nuthugging fag for agreeing with Tehtoe's post. God forbid someone other than the Inner Circle stand up for themselves around here.And 99% of my posts are about something other than my bad beats or whatever. You do have a valid point about examining my game via PokerTracker or some other tool like that, but tell me this: IS THAT REALLY GOING TO PREVENT SUCK OUTS/BAD BEATS/ETC???No, I didn't think so. Therefore, the right to bitch about bad variance and luck is substantiated as such:Bad Beat ForumLots of people posting bad beats in GenPo (hence BBFIDTS)It's a common thing and everyone can relate to it, apparently some more than others

[TrueAce13 18]

I'm still a micro/low limit grinder of the mtts, but I didn't get the impression that Tehtoe was talking down to Jspencer. Seriously though, it does seem that he gets 1 outted every single tourny. I complain about my bad beats, but there comes a point when maybe you just aren't getting unlucky all the time and you have leaks in your game I have a ton of leaks in my game and am glad that people can help me through them. I think that you took Tehtoe's post way out of contextLighten up

[chgocubs99 0]

I'm not 100% on this, but I'm pretty sure I've never had any interaction with Tehtoe anywhere in my entire life.The rest of your post again makes no sense, and just confirms that you are an immature child who will never improve at this game. Do you see why?Good luck.

These guys don't have a comprehension problem, they are trying to help you. They are saying that fixating on bad beats is horrible for your game and they're right. Learn something from this.

You're still being a dick. It's got nothing to do with having interacted with Tehtoe. You seem to have a talent for picking out info that suits you and misinterpreting it. Good day to you, sir.

tehtoe your a dick

That's funny, because I know you don't mean it.

I was simply taking exception to their tone. And if "helping someone" includes starting of a post "God you are so full of shit", well, hell, yeah, that's helpful!If I went to a psychologist and he said "God you are so full of shit", would you think they were trying to help you?But, yeah, fixating on bad beats is bad. I get that. Does that mean I shouldn't talk about them or expect them never to happen again? Those might be considered some form of denial. I accept bad beats, but it doesn't mean that I have to like them.And all the PokerTracker stats in the world isn't going to help your AK losing to AQ when the Q hits the flop.By the way, it may come as a surprise to some, but I didn't do this to be a dick. All I did was take exception to Tehtoe's tone and react somewhat poorly. If you didn't get that, too bad.

[kobe2odom8 14]

guys, lets not make mercury mad. I really don't want him leaving to make his own site/bad beat forum.

2 outted river ftw? oh, Mercury...you say that you didn't do this to be a dick, but you wanted to point out tehtoe's tone...ummm...can you see your own tone being the same?!?!Oh, and again...lighten up

Yes...true. Hopefully, Tehtoe will get this far before spewing obscenities my way.

[MaxStPolish 4]

at this pace, i think FCP is going to replace the young and the restless as my daily fix for melodrama. Gman just needs to get involved in this thread somehow and it'll be perfect.

[Tehtoe 3]

lol....the tone of my post wasn't attacking you in any way Mercury, I, like every other tournament player, suffer far more than you'll hear from me. It's just that you have to grow beyond a point where you begin to believe that you'll never win b/c of how bad you run, etc., and realize that all you can do is focus on the leaks you do have and try to play as optimally as possible. Believe me, I used to be exactly like this just a few months ago, and didn't listen when anyone told me that attitude had a ton to do with success in the game. Eventually, I tried to change for the better and just tried to focus on improving and it did help.Now, you're still going to see me complain a fair bit after a bad Sunday and such because I'm not perfect...but at least I'm always taking steps to move away from that direction.As far as JSpencer, I guess my post was somewhat of an attack on him, but it's pretty annoying to see him come into this thread every week and have these ridiculous bad beat stories w/ no HHs to go with them (it's fairly convenient that he "couldn't find" all of them). He has demonstrated a huge lack of desire to "get it" on this forum in a number of instances and I guess it's pretty frustrating to keep seeing posts like that.

Nice reply. Thanks for being reasonable, unlike my initial post about your post.I actually do my best to remain positive and upbeat about my game, regardless of what happens at the table(s). I can't help but roll my eyes when I get a guy AIPF when I have AK and he has Ax (to beat a dead horse) and X hits the flop, etc...It simply feels like it happens way more than it should. I hardly ever go on tilt, insofar as I don't spew chips or tilt shove or what have you...in general...But these points made are valid and, yes, I need to be reminded of them, especially after Sundays.Need I say it?<puff puff> PASS THE VARIANCE!

[FARGOpokerND 22]

Trust me, Merc, Tehtoe gets fucked over just like all of us do. It is just a part of poker, you are going to win 3 coinflips then lose a 70/30...not really odd-defying there.Also making light to your comment about people bitching a day after they win a few k and they have 5fig bankrolls...does that matter really? Seriously...just because they have a 5fig bankroll doesn't mean they have no right to throw out a complaint when they get rivered by a 2outer with 14 left in the SM (just an example) since that is potentially life-changing money they lose out on.And "winning a few k" the day before means jack shit when most big guys spend a few k just in Sunday tourney entries.I, too, think JSpencer is making some of these bad beats up. That shit just doesn't happen as often as he makes it out to be. Especially when he hardly ever plays. I mean seriously??? AA all in on Axx vs JJ just to have guy turn and river quads? I don't believe it and even if he posted the HH now, I would prob accuse him of doctoring a HH since he didn't post it right away. It does seem a bit ridiculous.And one more point, I read the Sunday thread every week but hardly ever post in it because I just want to follow my friends, but I do see lots of negativity in your posts, Merc. I think its probably for the better to do a self-check on your attitude and see if it is negatively affecting your play. I know you are going to say "well my attitude doesn't help when my AA loses to JT every fucking time" but you would be very surprised how play changes when your outlook on everything changes. I've noticed it with every player who has started at mircos and grown, and myself as well. Learn to just focus on the good (and yes there is good sometimes) and just not let anything affect you negatively.

[Mercury69 3]

Thanks for the good points, Fargo.You're right in that it doesn't matter what the BR size or a recent win rate is, it's still a bad beat. I'll take the attitude advice and self-check more often. I also think some folks might want to give JSpence a bit if a break. Whether his bad beats are true or not, he's clearly in need of some useful advice, such as I have received in this thread, so hopefully he'll read this and think about his situation.

[FARGOpokerND 22]

We have tried to make points to JSpencer in the past (see GMJ/Tehtoe thread in past) but he just doesn't seem willing to take the views into account.

I get your point, I'd just like to see you acknowledge the good in the post too, that's all. I'm sure you know that people can be assholes on the internet, just weed out the insults and get to the informative part of the post. Trust me, that's the best way to go about it - no need to take things personal.& You defend JSpencer a lot, is he a buddy of yours or something?
