Dogpatch 2 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 So how did JC get from being pissed at losing 80 bucks to playing in WPT events that cost 10k? In only about a year and a half?Note: I'm not asking this in a sarcastic way, I'm being completely serious...By being the hardest working man in poker? Link to post Share on other sites

Ecclesbury 0 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I'm sure JC is getting bored of this thread being bumped but it's the first time I've seen it and I really think everyone should get to read it, because it made what was a bad day into a brilliant day!I think it's better because I know for certain that if I hadn't read this thread at some point I would have done exactly the same thing! It's good to know even the best up and coming young guns can do it as well!Awesome. Link to post Share on other sites

Potsie P 0 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I think a lot of us love this thread because: 1) we did the same exact thing once (yes, I did); or 2) we could easily see ourselves making the same mistake.The funny thing about when it happened to me was that I was so focused on my "big hands" (which, of course, were NOT big hands in Royal HE), I didn't even notice thru the first four to six hands that everyone else was getting big cards too. I was raising pots with Ace-high straights and Q-high boats because I was too oblivious to know these weren't good hands, and I was actually scaring better hands away from knowledgeable players. Only the repeated flames from my opponents after a few showdowns made me realize my mistake. Of course, I left the game up about five bucks in a .10/.25 limit game, so it was actually a profitable lesson, but I still felt like an idiot.BTW, the third thing we love about this thread is that when we all TP/MM, we can rest comfortably knowing that there's a whole FCP family who will never let us forget our most humble of beginnings. Or in the case of some who know not the meaning of "humble," the most "doucheyness" of beginnings. Link to post Share on other sites

Berak 0 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 This reminds me of the time, when I first played online and got into Omaha SnG tourney rather than Hold'em by mistake. I had no idea you could only use two of your hole cards till 3/4 through the tourney and I was trying to read the rules from the website (I think it was Party, not sure). Anyway I was raising with a lot of hands I shouldn't of, and naturally, I took it down. Link to post Share on other sites

Fluffdog87 2 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 LOL!!! how does this game work?its 6 handed 2/4 just like the regular holdem.. but with no 2-9 cards.so imagine me when I have an wide opening raise...I was raising every ****ing hand.. lol the funniest part is when I started predicting the turn and the river to my table..."turn is either a j10kQ..so is the river.." or the turn.. " I have broadway, river will pair the board and Ill be ****ed against a boat"haha i wish I could get the HH w/ the conversation, you guys would have a good laugh. My fav lines.

Uniqueuponhim 0 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Hey, I was under the impression that in Royal Hold'em, a boat was actually ranked below a straight, because you're actually a lot more likely to hit a boat than a straight. Is this wrong? Link to post Share on other sites

XX44466XX 0 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 JC, you are too funny.I used to always sign up for the 1st SNG I could get into (wanting NL HE) and then finding out it was O/8 when it started. I did that once even thinking it was PLO for the 1st 1/2 hour, then realized it was O/8 and still won, LOL. Link to post Share on other sites
