Translation: bobbo is desperately trying to avoid putting his points where his mouth is yet aagain. Simply amazing that this guy claims to know anything about betting, but insists that him offering me at heavy favorite odds doesn't mean he thinks I will win
You've gotten better since you were called out on it, now that you know you're not as sneaky as you though you were

I would like to present my "Tribute to Bobbywaves" 1st ever Poker Skill Challenge! I'm excited to announce that this event will take place from early 2015 until late 2023 - 96 months of hot tourney action! Since I have nothing meaningful to do for the next decade while most people have lives/jobs/hobbies/sexual encounters, I think this is clearly a fair format not centered around long term participation! The results of this challenge will be weighted as follows: 1)50% total "Skill points" ("Skill points" are earned by cashing in a tournament - all cashes have equal value regardless of placing so that True Skill can be determined - because the best players obviously use True Skill to accumulate cashes in tourneys with massive overlays that payout 30%+ of the field ) 2) 50% "Bobbywaves ROI" - A mysterious ever changing formula manipulated to represent a players results in the best possible light. This challenge is open to ANY and EVERYONE - although I will be capping the action on any player that might have an edge on me at 1 bet point, and you will have a 10 second window to register for the challenge at the beginning of the new year. Anyone not registering for the challenge will be subject to ridicule for ducking me at poker challenges for the duration of the event, even though this is the only event I will consent to participate in. Also, I currently am DESTROYING Triple_D_Bet in wednesday 7pm tourneys where he fails to cash and I get 1st place. If that was a challenge that already existed, he'd be losing by a mile.....so please, a touch of humility in the forums, Triple_D_Bet. I'm looking forward to you signing up for my Skill Challenge.Last edited by Lowly Oaftard; 07-24-14, 03:09 PM.Comment -
You don't have 29k sitting in account to cover our bet, as I do. Robber's word means as much as his 5 tourney's played in 5 years, absolutely nothing.Comment -
You are being intentionally obtuse here. I never tried to get any accurate odds, just put a straight bet that TripleD will win. You have stated many, many, many times that you are the favourite and are crushing TripleD.
Given that, it certainly is not strange that Jake is taking you at your word and asking for "appropriate" odds. Using me as an excuse is not valid.Comment -
BD offered you a bet and you accepted it; but most importantly, BD's bet didn't glaringly contradict his stated beliefs.
We know how precious these points are to you; they must be, otherwise why would you sit around for 9+ hours on a Sunday flipping to roll them over? Given how tight you are with your points (treating them as a high score, no doubt a habit from Zynga poker), when what you do with your points contradicts what you claim to believe, it's extremely easy for us to see which one is true: you actually believe I'm a heavy favorite to win, but feel the need to pretend you're going to win. No shame in that bobbo, but you do make yourself look dumber and dumber the longer you deceive yourself
Robber's word is just as good (if not better) than yours...if anything, robber agreeing with the rest of the forum that you're an idiot further increases his credibility as a rational human being.Comment -
Using the timer to contemplate playing a starting hand or while in a hand calculating pot odds, obviously doesn't constitute abuse. Abuse would be stalling every hand, especially when ultimately folding. This is common sense to most, something you & Robber obviously lack. If I'm in violation, why hasn't SBR reduced my time?
The only two logical conclusions:
1) You're full of chit as usual
Or
2)SBR needs to get their act together identifying stallers.
Which will it be?
Comment -
A good example of abuse: having a short stack near the bubble (about 3 big blinds). Taking max timer to bet all but 1 chip. After being called and flopping quads, taking max timer to check the flop; when flop bet is made, max timer is taken to call for last chip....using max timer 3 times to stall hoping that people on other table bust out and douchebag nabs a mincash.Using the timer to contemplate playing a starting hand or while in a hand calculating pot odds, obviously doesn't constitute abuse.

Sound familiar bobbo?
Also, we're all eagerly awaiting your next excuse for why you swear you're a favorite, but insist on listing me as the favorite when taking bets

Here's a situation for ya bobbo: you have 27o and shove all in preflop (or more likely, stall for max time, bet all but 1 chip, etc) thinking you're a heavy favorite to win. I call with AA thinking I'm a heavy favorite to win. Are you trying to claim that because we both think we're going to win, that the actual odds are actually 50/50???
Also, if +100 is a fair price for betting on either one of us to win, why was there 0 action to bet on you with an "insurmountable" lead at +250?
Whatta maroon

Sorry, doesn't sound familiar at all. I must have missed when you played that hand Tripe, but that's hysterical.
Please check your hand history & post that funny hand, to refresh my memory.
Fun fact...if SBR had their hand to hand bubble set to 13 players instead of 15, then we wouldn't have fun hands like that one.

SBR's poker client has shortcomings, but taking advantage of them is the kind of angle-shooting we've all come to expect from you. After all, if it was just skill you'd have no chance to ever cash
Try to keep up bobbo, you're still like two excuses behind

Way to duck around the facts you can't explain away bobbo
Since you obviously don't agree with the rest of the smart people around here about offering odds consistent with your beliefs, let me share an opinion from a guy just as dumb as you who also thinks you're trying to rip Jake off:
So what are ya saying bobbo, that you disagree with the idiot I quoted here too?
Comment -
Before I do, let's offer you one more chance to put your points where your mouth is: since you're so certain you've never done such a thing, why don't you put some points on the line bobbo? Specifically: you're betting that you never took the actions above, flopped quad 4s, check/called. Hand history doesn't show your stalling, but it's obvious to anyone who's seen you pull this move before you realized everyone noticed and stopped.
So what'll it be bobbo: you going to put some of your precious points where your mouth is, or are you going to show us all that you know I'm right yet again?

You claimed -400 favoring you was closer to the true odds. Now surely Jake believes anything you say over me, being buddies & all. Yet Jake feels he should have +200, instead of the -400 you quoted.

I cant bet on a hand I don't recall. Probably had quads a few times, over the tens of thousands hands played. I multi- task while playing poker. So what may appear to be stalling to you, surely isn't the case.Before I do, let's offer you one more chance to put your points where your mouth is: since you're so certain you've never done such a thing, why don't you put some points on the line bobbo?

Welll...I proved "a" point at least, just not the one you've been trying to make recently. On top of that, you're having your usual difficulties with reading it seems. try to follow along:
-After you made a terrible buyout offer (with the contest not even half-done), robber called you out on it, and said you were as certain as your buyout indicated (-600 or so odds), then he'd be happy to book your bet on yourself at -400.
-You declined to put your points where your mouth was, as usual, and tried to make up some excuses that didn't hold water.
-In the midst of your flailing about for a reason that didn't make you look like a hypocrite, you seized on the idea that I was offering different odds, and cried to me that I was offering odds different than what I stated I believed the true odds were.
-I pointed out to you that I had said from the beginning that the odds I was giving on you were lower than actual odds, which would have me a much heavier favorite. Unlike you, I didn't claim I was going to win and try to offer bets on you as a heavy favorite; my offer was clear and logically consistent.
Hope that catches you up to speed bobbo; even the you from a few months ago thinks it's wrong to offer odds so different from what you claim to be true
Now that you've been smacked down there, what else ya got?

Somebody multitasking doesn't try to draw a hand out unnecessarily by taking their entire time bank to make obvious decisions. Even if it took all of your time and mental faculties to decide to commit with pocket 4s, there would be no reason for you to go all in except for 1 chip...except to stall, which you promptly did. I often go all in with all but 1 chip myself as a running joke, and I never slowroll the call regardless of the situation...there's a good chance you took the idea from me actually
regardless of where it came from, you doing it followed by using your entire time bank twice on a decision that takes 0 time to think about (calling 1 chip with the nuts) is a clear slow-roll angle shoot.
Fortunately for you, you don't need to remember the hand bobbo; all you need to do is put your points behind your assertion that you've never done such a thing. I'm pretty sure I already know your answer, but why don't you make it official and confirm for all of us that you don't actually believe you're right....once again

I agree! Registration will be January 1, 2015, at 2:47am. You'll be able to sign up for the challenge then. Don't miss the registration window though - that would prove your cowardice and lack of confidence in your ability to win! Until then, we will have to look at some FACTS to gauge who might have won any hypothetical challenges that could have occurred in the interim, while also concluding how hard you would try to duck these hypothetical challenges. To give us a factual basis for evaluating our play,how about we use the "Lowly Oaftard Win Index (LOWI)"? This index identifies the superior poker player based on Ring Game results over an arbitrary period of time selected by...none other than Lowly Oaftard. For today's assessment, we'll look at the last 3 weeks ( Since I have conveniently played a lot of ring games during this time while you have completed many a rollover chop) You can see I finished 3rd on last week's Ring Game Winners Leaderboard ( per Winners and Losers video), while your riveting highly raked rollover chops earned you nary a spot amongst this group of champions. This evidence clearly proves - beyond a shadow of a doubt - that I'm the better player. As a matter of fact, I've been near the top of the last 3 leaderboards - while you have made zero appearances - this obviously indicates I'm at least 3 times better than you, according to the indisputably accurate LOWI. So we can easily draw the following conclusions :
1) You are a vastly inferior poker player to myself, according to the widely recognized LOWI metric.
2) You would most certainly be defeated in any poker challenge I issued you at any time, and would duck any challenge offered.
3) You are going to duck my proposed Poker Skills challenge despite it being a tribute to you, and you will bear the burden of shame and regret it will cause because it will save you precious poker points.Comment -
Apparently both
Just another angle he's shooting, like the easily 80%+ of the time he looks for a tournament with fewer players to enter at the last minute in hopes of more easily folding to a mincash, like today:
Presumably we wont hear much from him for the next hour or so til he's blinded out, as it takes so much of his mental capacity to figure these things out9DC345 7/24/2014

I can assure there's nothing copied from you, as there's nothing about your game worthy of it. Sometimes I'll leave a chip behind in the rare event I lose, this way I'll have a chip & a chair to mount a comeback. Committing with pocket 4's pre flop obviously isn't a snap decision, it's not A,A. And if someone has the nerve to go over the top of me, then obviously I have no choice but to call my last chip.Somebody multitasking doesn't try to draw a hand out unnecessarily by taking their entire time bank to make obvious decisions.

Looking forward to seeing you sign up for 2015. Not surprising, Lowly Oaftard is nowhere to be found on these leaderboards:

Classic bobbo, can't make a point unless he's misquoting someone
Riiiiight...that's SO much more likely than you stalling general, as many have observedI can assure there's nothing copied from you, as there's nothing about your game worthy of it. Sometimes I'll leave a chip behind in the rare event I lose, this way I'll have a chip & a chair to mount a comeback. Committing with pocket 4's pre flop obviously isn't a snap decision, it's not A,A. And if someone has the nerve to go over the top of me, then obviously I have no choice but to call my last chip.
No stalking necessary; it's widely known that you play in the 11 PM unless you think the 9 or 7 PM has a smaller field that will let you fold your way to a mincash, followed by you buying in at the last minute. Your point history is littered with evidence proving this. Why you do it is obvious: when you put all that effort and find a small tournament, you can fold your way to a small cash you otherwise would have had no chance of. Today was a prime example: looks like you literally folded your way down to just over 1 big blind, then got lucky enough to win a couple hands in a row to go out in 9th. With that caliber of play, you can't really blame everyone for being so hesitant to bet on you
