In tonight's B/H I was doing OK then got moved to another table. I passed on a couple of rotations to weigh-up the table. There were 4 smallish stacks and the tournament CL. I had a healthy stack so watched what was happening. The CL was in on every hand playing literally any two cards. I watched him take out 3 small stacks with amazing calls such as 26 on a 279 flop and called the allin against QQ. This happened time and again. Then it was my turn ......

thats so unlucky ......name and try to to shame you idiot you are nothing but an average player deal with it mister.

yes was really bad play by the other player and seems to be a lot doing this. You just cant shake um of any pair and raises seem to be pointless. Basic rules of poker is raise when your ahead and fold when your behind unless you have outs. Wish newbies would learn this basic rule before playing games for cash. i know we all want bad players but you cant out play luck unfortunately. Nature of the beast but good luck your not the only one.

go to the groomers and ask for a "blackfish"

loonytoons

I had J-8 off suit on the button, blinds were 100/200 two of us had 6000 odd each, i raised to 800, and the SB called, flop J-8-4 rainbow, he went 200, i shoved all in he called with A-4 and hit another 4 on the river, so yeh its happening regular now, you just gotta be prepared for calls from players with cr ap lool

Mr_Miyagi

do you think it is getting to a point where people need to stop saying "If you do the correct play and get your money in while your ahead you will end up being a winning player overall"?

I always prefer the timeless classic of 'the standard of poker is much higher than it was 3 years ago'

MAXALLY

Or.....''you did nothing wrong there, you got your money in good but the poker gods did not smile on you''

I too have seen alot af what i suppose you would call less than sensible plays but it seems a fair few are more than prepared to GAMBLE rather than fold an inferior hand and while they keep on hittin em they are never gonna stop are they? dav

if anyone was watching the 4/8 game earlier tho - u would have seen a certain loon playing any 2 cards and winning some before losing the lot and then more.  That what is meant by 'they will lose in the long run'.

That's applicable on a cash table Phil. In tournaments, when you have what seems like an army of them, the damage they do is often fatal to your tournament chances. I know this has always applied to tournament play hence the big swings, but the sheer number of times it's happening makes most tournaments on here little more than a lottery. The player in my example HH actually went busto within 20 minutes of busting me and a number of others (he had a 42k stack after busting me and was the tournament CL) but that's no consolation to me or the players he took out with the most rediculous hands. With that kind of play he'll never make a profit let alone win a tournament so what you say applies in part. The problem is that I am meeting these guys in every tournament and they just seem to hit the 2 outer too often to make sense.

ps. I watched about an hour of that 4/8 game and it was sick.

phil12uk

Completely agree Al. I'm currently on my worst run in poker ever and seriously not enjoying it (guess losing money's not enjoyable lol). MTTs are a minefield and the amount of bullets to dodge is immense.  Wish I could dodge some on cash though............

well, with so many good players on a major down swing( dont class myself as one, but am on a big down swing) some bug gers out there must be filling there pockets. would somone out there please post saying they have played 5 mtts and cashed in all and won 2 of them for £xxxxxx . would be nice to know good money is going to good people. my game at the moment is a bit like tigers golf " nothing wrong with my game APART  from my upswing ,my down swing and my putting!!!!

I'm giving the 5k D/S a bash tonight but if it follows the same format I've encountered for the past month I'll be giving them all a miss for a while.

The usual format has been steady progress to a healthy stack then a crucial hand against an unknown, who is well behind, only for them to hit on the river and crush me....... we shall see.

see you there mate

Lasted an hour in D/S with no cards other than TT. Just after break I came up against the big stack with AQ against the inevitable monster 97os.

Mtts on here are a waste of time and money as far as I'm concerned. Can't compete with that in every game, so I'll bow out and go elsewhere for a time. Not a whinge, just a fact.

k8.  flop k 8 4 . allin.  called by k10 yep 10 on river. gotta love it.

dav1964

Its happening all too often for my liking and say whatever you want and read into it whatever you want but a bigstack can go with any 2 and hit.Constantly,i dont see variance is working here somehow.Still that is only my opinion.Gl at the tables all dav

jubbley

Im new to sky but the structures on here promote loose play imo, I think on-line play is for fun in mtts its hard to profit on quick blind structures and the odd bad beat  lol .

Yes getting lucky is a big part in poker as we all know and hurts when we get outdrawn etc but im sure weve all done it , tbh some on here hate the criticism but its meant to be fun i thought ..i was called an idiot for pointing out facts lol .

Keep in there the luck will change..
