New Challenge (old Challenge)


Recommended Posts

Played about 5 and a bit hours at the casino, ended up $182. Seemed like I was carddead but when I think about it I was probably running pretty good and the live mentality was just setting in. I made a bit of an idiot of myself when I thought someone was slowrolling me, I thought they were all in on the turn and I called and then he checked river. He still had $400 in black chips behind his hand. I showed my hand, which was TT on a JQ22x board and then he went yes and showed a flush. I said that was a bit of a dicky move and got a little angry. Then I realised he wasn't all in and I apologised.Later I got a bit angry about etiquette again. Someone obviously from the internet (lol, I'm totally from the internet) asked to see my mucked hand after a showdown. I asked him if I thought I was cheating. He didn't understand, and defended himself saying this game is all about information and he wants all it available. I said this isn't the internet buddy, if your in the hand and want to see, go ahead and ask, but if your not in the hand it's very rude and implies you think I'm cheating.He didn't really get it I don't think, but oh well.I had about $500 on the table when they broke our table at about 230am, They wouldn't let me keep my stack if I moved and would've had to start back at $80 at the new table so I went home instead. We were playing 7 handed before we broke, which was a nice change from 10 handed play they normally have, I don't know if my expectation increases though, as the rake structure is so bad that playing shorthanded probably increases it's effect too much to be beaten. Not that I'm really beating the game now, my expectation is probably $5 an hour or something ridiculous.

That seems dumb.

That seems dumb.
It is, which is why I left. I actually put in a suggestion card about it, and the buy in amount. They have this 80NL game with 1/2 blinds, a 200 game with 5/5 blinds and a 200-500 game also with 5/5 blinds. The rake structure is different between the two 5/5 games, but it would make a lot more sense (at least in my head) to get rid of the 200 game and have 80-200 and 200-500. They've really improved the room a lot, and I think this is one more improvement they could make. If they changed this, despite the high rake, I'd go a lot more often.

That is really dumb.. I think if you request to move to another table you sometimes cannot bring your stack if over max buy but if its broken and you're forced to move... that seems really silly.havent played too much today... lost a buy in at 25 plomahaha (never playing again) and lost a couple 5$-10$ mtt's real early. gonna put in a good session tonight most likely.

LOL at the first 5 seconds of the video, that guy is so big he doesn't even look real!
(oh, and the dunk is pretty cool too...)
Call me when he goes over the guy.
Still to this day one of the sickest things I've ever seen.Mark

1 - Congrats checky, good to have you back.
tyty. although i need to shake the rust off of my LHE game, since that's what i'm playing. when i'm playing HU it's all good, but when it gets to 6+ i think i'm a little too loose. gonna work on that.

Twilight Princess sucks major ass, IMO. I beat it in the 40-50 hours range, but it was kinda meh the whole way through - there's a few cool boss fights and minigames, but that's about it.
omgz! i love that game so much!
