    Why are you happy to play pocket queens 4 handed on a 6 handed table?


    Was your raise button broken?


    Playing the hand this badly makes you a big under-dog against 3 random hands.

    It seems all you do on this forum is moan about poker, so why do you play it? If a game makes you moan this much you can't be enjoying it? If I have an Xbox game I don't enjoy then I simply don't play it - I don't carry on playing and then moan about it. You even make out you think the site is rigged yet you continue to play. None of it makes sense.

    Yes, you got a semi bad beat, but your play was horrible at same time. Should never have flatted the preflop raise, as you priced so many people in to call then. I mean seriously, I know people want to get paid with their big hands, but slow playing with a call rather than raising because you worry they will all fold is bad, if that was your reasoning. Should always be 3betting in this spot and weeding out the trashy hands.

    At least if you play a hand right and lose you can't blame anything other than bad luck, but taking so many people with you to a flop like this is a recipe to lose to often.

    What this gentleman is kindly trying to convey is that there is a price to pay for experience.
    Just calm down and have a thinkie. You need to win just a fraction more hands than those you lose to succeed.
    Lamentably poker is like this.
    In fairness he is an eminent logician and you could do worse than obey his whims ?

    U have played the pocket 2's pretty good so far, let's see a turn card.

    No draws, every turn is safe, this is one of the very few times when u can legitimately slow play u're hand.

    My Dad has a mate who works as a groundsman at Old Trafford. Somehow he got me a chance to train with the first team.

    U wudnt believe it.

    They could run faster than me, they never got out of breath, they could lift heavier weights than me, and in the practice game, they all lasted longer than me.

    It was unreal, they all must have been on drugs or something. There's no way they cud all be that much better than me.

    Fergie tried to explain to me that they had practised for years, worked at their game every day, listened to other players, followed training plans, and techniques.

    I wasn't having that, it's all a f*in fix, they're all on drugs.

     I dont play that regular but I can pick 3 hands that "prove" anything "Queens never hold up"  "Queens always hold up". Thier is no point bluffing because I always get called or that every time I bluff I get it through! The best starting hand always wins or the best starting hand always loses!
     If I did the above though I would not be totally honest and the only people I would be kidding was myself, the totally paraniod and the gullable!
     Just try to enjoy the game and remember life isnt always fair and niether is cards but if you try to do things right you are more likely to get results!
     The one thing I can be sure of is that this as been a total waste of my time as you wont take anything I have said serously!

    dohh i would have been very happy  to have played the queens in this 4 hand table how ever if the 10 on this flop would have been a queen he would not have posted he would have won the hand so there would be no moan darn unlucky id say mate play it stronger nexts time and watch them all fold
  • edited November 2010

    Yeh u've played the 2's well there regardless of the outcome. This is only coz the board is really dry (not very scary) - If there was a flush draw/straight draw out I would bet more.

    I would also shove the river, as u only have 200 behind, but that's nit picking I guess.

    You obviously lost the hand?? It's quite amazing if u did though - you are only beaten by higher sets - and he's played his hand reallllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy strangely if he has 1 of those !!

    Yes, but this is what you want to happen!! - Do u understand that?

    When you have the best hand, u want people to put as much money in as possible.

    Pre flop, you have QQ v TT and 55 - you are MILES AHEAD of your opponents. So if you think they will call, bet as much as possible!!!!

    You can't control the cards, and you can't compensate for bad beats or bad luck before it actually happens.

    All you can do is play your hand correctly, and over time, luck will even out.

    Don't say "well it happens every time" because I don't believe that for a minute. 

    One thing is for sure though, if you encourage it to happen more, by mis-playing your hands, then it will.

    Very unlucky with the set of 2's - that's poker ;)

    Over the course of 5 days play in the WSOP main event, 7 thousand players, turn into 9.......

    Six thousand nine hundred and one players get knocked out of the tournament in 5 days.

    How do you think this happens? - Do you think they all make mistakes? Or do the dealers rig it to get rid of the players faster?

    Or maybe it's just normal for action hands to happen in NLHE?

    try omaha ;)
