        You & Hawk are stepping up big, making Tripe's disappearance irrelevant.

            Ya I've had bitch of a time closing a win. I've thrown away a few small 20/30 cashes for going for the big prize. I think we can afford it right now.

              Yeah Hawk lied and said he wouldn't play much or I would have picked him! LOL


              Meanwhile AT LEAST I am getting to the final table before I get donked!

              The constant donks that happen to me are freakin ridiculous!!

              I had KK and some idiot called with 88 and donked another 8 right in the window or I would have been in the chip lead!

              Then I took a second because a dude literally luck-donked THREE straight two outers on me to win 1st place!

              Then the next day I had AA and a dude calls with KK and donks a freakin 2 outer K on me!

              Then today I was in the chip lead with 8 people left and some idiot went all in with 67!


              I called with A J and the window was 3 4 A.

              So I sit there and wait on the 5 to hit and he rivered the 5 and donked a fuckin straight! I still got 75 points.


              I know it is just stupid SBR poker but this can end up getting a cash prize for the top finishers.


              I know that it just isn't going to keep happening that I get freakin bullshit donked like this over and over.


              It is incredible!! I get freakin luck-donked at least twice as much as anybody else and I still have over 300 points.

                Hawk didn't lie, he simply stated what he thought at the time. Hawk is probably trying his best to play, since Tripe is letting our team down by entering this contest & not even playing. We're still kicking your ass, with only 3 people playing!

                It is incredible!! I get freakin luck-donked at least twice as much as anybody else and I still have over 300 points.
                Poor Joe, you make it sound like you're the only recipient of suckouts. If it wasn't for suckouts, I would cash every tourney.

                    I recalculated the stats & still at 94.4%.

                        So far I've won twice as much in dollars this month as the rest of the team had in points, so I'd say my priorities are in the right place. Not a particularly good month either, but crushes your wildest dreams in poker

                          No points for me tonight. I had JJ and got called by KK. Hell I'm actually proud that I got out without getting donked.

                            Keep dreaming chump, you're all talk & no action. I've posted numerous screenshots of bets & sportsbook balances over the years, while you never post proof of anything.

                            Fact of the matter is you signed up for this poker contest with no intentions of playing. Screwing over any team, who had no other unfortunate choice than to draft you last.

                            Just like I suspected, we don't even need you. We're comfortably winning without you.

                                Spoiler alert for people who know better: reality > bobbo

                                There's no need to prove anything to you, and a few good reasons not to. Nonetheless, I've posted pictures of big wins before, and anyone poster who's ever played live with me won't hesitate to confirm I'm far better than you at poker. No need to post your PS balance (smaller than what I won last night) or your life savings on BetDSI

                                Fact of the matter is I helped this thing go by ponying up an extra person and paying for joe too. I never said I would be able to give it my all; in fact, I said the opposite:

                                Can't promise I'll perform too well, too busy winning real money, but I'll give it a half-assed shot!
                                As indicated, I'm giving it a half-ass shot...I'll play when I can, but I'm not gonna let SBR poker get in the way of even one hand of regular poker (any one of which I could win more than your entire PS balance). So congrats on playing worse than a poorly-scripted bot, but still being able to sneak in a few cashes in a very noncompetitive environment? FFS, you're trying your hardest and you're barely doing better than CS4

                                As always, feel free to jump in here with some nonsensical quote-editing or making all sorts of illogical statements...I'll probably be too busy winning more in poker this year than your house is worth, but if you come up with some brand-new nonsense maybe I'll take the time to make fun of it

                                        If you weren’t a constant broke dikk, I would wager 20k on proving your ignorant welfare statement. Work the SBR glory holes, solicit a 20k loan, & get back to me pencil neck. Fact of the matter is I’m comfortably retired while you’re a slave to the grind working.

                                        So you’re bragging about beating me 1 year, when I beat you the other 7 years. Thanks for demonstrating your ignorance again. Not to mention I absolutely crushed you the only year it mattered, when you lost the biggest poker bet in SBR history (29K) to Waves.

                                        Since Wulfman is no longer here to ask you this, how is your boyfriend Alex doing? Or did he finally break up with you?

                                            Keep getting down to final 5 and donked. Oh well, it'd be nice to get another win but cards are cards. Can't fold 3 handed with huge blinds and the chip lead with A6 vs button shove. Guy woke up with A9 and it was all down hill from there.

                                              There's no need to prove anything to you, and a few good reasons not to. Nonetheless, I've posted pictures of big wins before, and anyone poster who's ever played live with me won't hesitate to confirm I'm far better than you at poker. No need to post your PS balance (smaller than what I won last night) or your life savings on BetDSI

                                              Fact of the matter is I helped this thing go by ponying up an extra person and paying for joe too. I never said I would be able to give it my all; in fact, I said the opposite:



                                              As indicated, I'm giving it a half-ass shot...I'll play when I can, but I'm not gonna let SBR poker get in the way of even one hand of regular poker (any one of which I could win more than your entire PS balance). So congrats on playing worse than a poorly-scripted bot, but still being able to sneak in a few cashes in a very noncompetitive environment? FFS, you're trying your hardest and you're barely doing better than CS4

                                              As always, feel free to jump in here with some nonsensical quote-editing or making all sorts of illogical statements...I'll probably be too busy winning more in poker this year than your house is worth, but if you come up with some brand-new nonsense maybe I'll take the time to make fun of it



                                              Thanks man, I forgot who gave me the points or I would have picked you. But now I guess you are glad that I didn't!


                                              All I do is get freakin donked off every night. At least tonight I had K7 and the flop was a king and somebody had KQ.


                                              If it was me with KQ up against K 7 then somebody would have donked a 7 on me.




                                              But it is never going to happen where I luck-donk from behind.



                                              I only get luck-donked by others when they have 2 and 3 outers to beat me.



                                              Oh well, it is only SBR poker so who gives a fuk?

                                                You're trying your hardest to be the most ignorant person on this site. I'm crushing CS4, have his pt total doubled.

                                                What's pathetic is CS4 kicking your ass:

Work the SBR glory holes, solicit a 20k loan, & get back to me pencil neck. Fact of the matter is I’m comfortably retired while you’re a slave to the grind working.

                                                                So you’re bragging about beating me 1 year, when I beat you the other 7 years. Thanks for demonstrating your ignorance again. Not to mention I absolutely crushed you the only year it mattered, when you lost the biggest poker bet in SBR history (29K) to Waves.

                                                                Since Wulfman is no longer here to ask you this, how is your boyfriend Alex doing? Or did he finally break up with you?
                                                                Being on welfare/free lunches/subsidized internet and whatever other government handouts you're on doesn't count as retired, as anyone can do it if they spent their time trying to nit up freeroll poker instead of working a job and paying for themselves. Not surprised that you're proud of it, you seem to enjoy scamming.

                                                                As usual, you're inability to read makes a conversation impossible, so pardon us if we just laugh at you instead

Likewise, there is a larger range of hands with which one can steal the blinds or antes than with which one can defend them.
