    lucky again today. A6, flopped ace, ran into A10, rivered a 6.

    final table: saw someone as bb in for 600 and then fold when aggie all-ined with 708 (300/600/50 level).

    well this is the worst one in a while.

    Dealt AA second hand (iifold shoved all in first hand, all folded). I'm UTG, I raise to 5x the bb. iifold re-raises. I re-raise to 550.

    He all ins on me preflop. I call. He has K10 off. K on flop, 10 on turn.

    He wins my 1800 chips on a major suckout.

    Dead last in the 9 PM.

    biteme every time one of these happens I throw my computer out the window.

    Playing SBR poker is getting to be expensive.

    Since I was 41st I didn't even get to see the reaction because it caused a table change (4 tables of 10).

    I've gone out in first few hands the same way 3 times in maybe my last 7 tournies.

    Tuesday on 2nd or 3rd hand was dealt KK UTG and bet 60 and get a couple of followers. BB pushes allin with 55... I sigh and almost fold my kings after losing the same way a couple of times already in the last week. Of course he hits a 5

    Well guess i shouldnt feel so badly, yesterday i called a all in, i had pocket QQ, of course other player had pocket AA. Guess maybe i should have just folded, not sure what the proper call was there?
    I was in about 10th place with 18 players left when i called. Out 18th after lol.

    This is a good one.

    I have 8,10 and flop a straight. I bet 1/3 pot on flop (5), conan re-raises to 20, I re-raise to 50. He calls. Turn is an 8. I all-in with 162 and change. He calls. River 10, split pot. A full board straight counterfeiting my hand.

    15/30 blinds, dealt AQ, I re-raise Papertrail's A7 min raise preflop to 270. estoxx calls, paper folds. Flop comes AQ8 (not of the same suit).

    I bet about half pot, estoxx reraises all in, I obviously call. He's holding K10 offsuit.


    Turn J, river 10.

    2nd hand, 11 PM

    I have AQ, I bet big pre. Flop gives me a straight. Two hearts, one diamond. I bet, shawn 555 raises, I re-raise, he re-raises all-in with JQ diamonds.

    Turn and river: 6 of diamonds, 2 of diamonds.

    Runner runner flush.



    Dealer: shawn555 shows a pair of jacks.

    Of course there are peeps here that play for real money... personally, since Black Friday I've spent plenty of time in more than a few casinos.

    There are various reasons why people play here; some guys make the mistake of thinking their perspective speaks for others' perspectives and consequently draw erroneous conclusions.

    I do Canuck. Have for years currently on BM and 5Ds would love to play Full Tilt or PS (home games private) if they would open up something besides play chips. Im thinking they are doing something. I mean why announce to US that the site has reopened and allow us to play on the play chips side? I mean wtf ..they have to be strategizing something.

    anyyea...looks like u asked so I am responding to your post about 3 back. I too would not have the patience or desire to play here on SBR I mean im not obsessing on amazon gift cards,etc. Now if they could run tourneys here and give out pre paid visas to winners...then we may be getting somewhere. I mean ...actually what is the diff between amazon cards and **** cards?\
    I am a student again in life Canuck trying to major in mathematics ...so it is only genuine that I would like a side job attempting to grow a bankroll on an online poker site.

    In the meantime I wire to 5dimes and BM ...I have noticed Canuck that BM and 5d's use same exact software and they coinceide (also wont allow me to run the poker software on 1 if I have it open on another)

    last thing and im out. I think I, like many us players wish so bad our gov't would legalize and tax we dont have a problem with paying taxes on our winnings. Regulation is the problem now. we dont' all the way trust our money ,etc at costa rican books. If rigging poker can be profitable ... then does it happen? Cmon Canuck... I mean...wtf do we little people know about the mechanics of the sites. and is it rigged if it is built into the computer programs? I mean..its all just numbers...noone has to sit behind a screen and push a bad beat button. the more a player wins ...the higher the difficulty level goes up and the winning player loses more. the more he loses the more the difficulty level movies down, hence the losing player starts winning more. the idea is to keep players from cashing out and keep the money on the site. If I wire 200 and turn it to 1200 overnight and cash out 900 then the site is losing that money. However ..if I take 400 from joe blow and then joe green takes 250 from me and then joe blue takes 200 from joe green,etc,etc etc... joe blow eventually reloads and the cycle continues. the site takes in more and more money ... the idea here is to payout as little as possible. Ever wonder why FullTilt poker was accused as ponzi site? money wasn't there. It didn't have to be... they knew how to manipulate the action and as a result (just like in banking period) they didn't have the gold behind them to pay if everyone requested a payout at the same time...but that would never happen as long as u keep shuffling the money. Here is another way to look at it. ... I wire 1k to full tilt (because I am wanting to start my online poker career and exzibit and strict bankroll mngt plan and slowly but surely (the dream of all players)..slowly build that poker bankroll and live the good life. Problem: FullTilt had other plans..lol Once u get knocked over the head and that 1k is now a mere 700 ...(do we pull ourselves up by our boot straps and cash out??) .. no we don't .. if anything we do the opposite and move upstairs to the nose bleed tables and try the smash and grab theory and then move back down and scorn ourselves ..to never do that shit again. Problem again: poker chip rig! It's built in to the program.

    As much as this is theory and I hope Im wrong...I know in my heart im not because I have seen it for years. Same simple reason when u r deep in a tourney and 2 small stacks go all in and someone with big stack calls and the computer throws that sick turn and/or river that bumps the 2 out and you were saying to yourself as the turn and river came.... watch it throw a 6...and it does of course ..the computer/calculator does its thing...its as simple as that. maximize profit , minimize loss

    Salud!
