I NEED A RANT...
9 STRAIGHT GAMES HAD PEOPL PUSH INTO ME AT THE END OF GAMES WITH WORST THAN ME OR I HAVE THEM TRAPPED ON THE TURN AND GET THEM ALL IN, THEN BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM THE MIRACLE SKY RIVER BULL SH..... EVEN GUT SHOTS.. 9 STRAIGHT GAMES... I CAN HANDLE 2 3 MAYBE, THAT VARIENCE.. NOT 9 STRAIGHT GAMES. THATS IS JUST BULL SH**
Just shocking how bad ppl play still. Flop is checked as just showed down AK on K high board previous hand with three streets of betting.
Whats the point in using a skill edge if people just do this all the time? When he jams I have no FE so he isnt doing it as a bluff. Just as a whatever......
he got a full house! now obviously that was just sheer good luck and excellent play...........
what a stroke of luck to call with 9-5 at the same time 2 more 9's and a 5 were about to be dealt.
was it the first time it had happened to me? yes..........that evening (been playing an hour) but it has happened 50 other times! - despite all comments -the software is a str8 as a corkscrew - end of.
I was Hoping that this site would be better.
On WH I got my £10 buy in on 10p-20 up to £90
On the Button was given 99, 3 limpers before me, put it up to £3.50 the Big blind called, he had £65 the limpers folded, 777 comes on the flop, Thinking he may have an over pair I bet the pot of 7.60, he called, A 9 came down, now I'm hoping he has an over pair, I bet £6 he goes all in for £54, I Call he has 7-4 Off suit.
WHO CALLS 17 and half times the big blind with 7-4 off Suit?

i thought only JESUS and GOD performed miracles. BUT SKY IS FAR BETTER THAN THEM AT PERFORMING MIRACLES... i have trapped ppl perfect today. had them make stupid calls for gut shots and needing to hit for the pair or for their set. more than 10 times today...
but low and behold THE SKY MIRACLE. HAPPENS YET AGAIN
tonight i have won 1 marginal hand with a river.. lost 43 and split 2..
it amazes me how u can get ur chips in good and cilla black happens on the river..
i think sky shud rename the river the cilla. cos u know u r going to be surprised
(b) Gamblers.
The odds of flopping a quad off of the back of two odd cards is over 9000-1 (can't remember the exact figure). As James Bond said - "He just got lucky". He won't be cleaning up with cards like that too often.
Having said that, it's instances like this that has turned me away from the cash tables. There are a lot of people with more money than sense, but who also have the luck of the devil. I kept running into them. There's a lot been said, and written, about over the long run yada yada yada . . . but if you play on tables with lots of cavalier players no matter how good your game, I think you'll struggle to come out on top. It's the compound effect of all of the odds against that do the damage.
Better cards in future.
another.. miracle flushes to dominated hands..
i think this just tells me to get my chips all-in when i know i am losing. a reasonable hand but not a fanstic hand.. get them in. u will win..
now some will say. but you will lose in the long run.
i dont think so... had dominating hands for 4 days now and lost nearly all off them...
please explain how they can hit miracle runner runner wins, including flushes turn river, straights turn river, three of a kind turn river and ofcourse the usual rag A on river after they make a bad call think their AK is winning..
sorry. but varience is a joke. if this is varience i can not wait for my time to come when i hit these miracle wins.
You don't say whether your All-Ins were pre-flop or not? Look at this example:
you've a couple of queens - qd, qs - in the hole, the oppo has called a raise, and the flop has hit with 8s, 6h, 5h. How far are you in front?
If the oppo is holding 7h and 6d, then they have a 2-1 chance (8/47 x 2/1) of making a straight. They have a c3/2 chance (10/47 x 2/1) of making a flush, a 7-1 chance of making two pair and 11-1 chance of turning their pair of 6s into a set. Where can your two queens go? Draw another to a set (11-1) or match an 8 or 5 on the board for two pair (approx 3-1) - both of these are less likely (based on the maths) than the oppo making a hand that will beat both of them.
Once the flop comes down, if there are two or more suited cards on the board, then the advantage of having a big pair on the board starts dwindling rapidly - it they're within the range of a straight even more so. I don't think people appreciate just how much their advantage goes out of the window when those three cards hit the board - hence so many posts along the lines of this site is so flushy etc etc.
Better cards in future.
Ahh good times, good times.
Caring and sharing and all that.
I thought other sites were bad and they are but this is unbelievable......................................
