LOL Well I cashed again tonight. I took 3rd place. May as well call me "Mr. Consistency"!!
LOL That is if you count these SBR 40 man poker tourneys as meaning ANYTHING towards who is "good" at poker! LOL
Ole Triple D got me again tonight!! The dude donked people from behind AT LEAST 6 times at the final table ALONE!!
LOL WHENEVER he needed a card to counterfeit somebody else's made pair, he donked it on somebody!
And whenever he needed to fade a card or HE got his pair counterfeited , the other player NEVER donked it on him!!
It was absolutely INCREDIBLE to watch somebody get that much donk-luck OVER and OVER in one tourney!!
Than after all those donks, I set him up on an all in with k 8 suited, and he called my all in with freakin 3 4 offsuit!!!
LOL So obviously I have him TOTALLY dominated!
He has about a 30% shot! Well you know the rest! he donked a fukkin 3 right in the window and then faded my K and 8!! LOL
Man! If I could donk HALF as much as that dude donks from behind, then I'd never lose a tournament!! LOL
Now, to Triple's credit, he just KEPT on playing that way (raising and calling when he had an ace or a face card and continually "gambling" on hitting his 40% underdog hands!) but finally the odds caught up with him and he gave away a huge chip lead and let the other guy come back and win 1st place!
Now let's be clear here! (Triple will totally ignore this part of my post and only focus on "defending" his poker play against me talking about how often he donked last night!!)
Now Let's be clear, calling an all in with 3 4 offsuit is stupid, reckless, and insane!
But playing a 40 man tourney in the style of "pure gambling" on 40% shots by raising and calling every time you have 2 very high hole cards is NOT a bad way to play a quick 40 person hour long tournament!! I LIKE and AGREE with it, as long as you know you are just "gambling" on coin flips instead of trying to play "good poker" for an hour and trying to get your chips in with 80% or better shots at winning!!
That is why I don't play pure "gambling poker" by just raising and calling raises whenever I have 2 face cards or an ace rag and then "hope" that my 40% underdog hand donks out the other person because I got lucky and hit my high pair!!
Because as soon as you don't win the "40% underdog gamble" a couple of times, then you lose and you are out!!
And that is also why my style of poker has over TWICE as many cashes as his "gambling on coin flips" style of poker has!
I will consistently finish in the money waaay more often than that "reckless gambling on coin flips" style of play will be in the money!
But man it sure is fun to watch him play that way!! But I can't make him realize that I LOVE watching him (and others) play that way!! (He is too busy thinking that he needs to "defend" it to people on here to even get any enjoyment out of it when it works for him!!!!)
He just raised or called EVERY TIME that he had an ace or a couple of face cards in his hand and took a "gamble" on winning the coin flip!
And he fukkin donked in whatever he needed to come, and also faded whatever he didn't need to come! OVER and OVER!!
Until it got down to the last 2 people when the "gambles" finally stopped winning for him, and he took home 2nd place! WOW!!
But now instead of laughing about winning all those "coin flip gambles", he will get "sensitive" about his poker play and reply with some type of stupid attempt at a "defense" for calling my all in with 3 4 off suit!!
LOL and that's not what I meant to make him do by posting this!! I just want him to cut up about it and have a good laugh!!
But he is "afraid" that somebody on SBR will think he is not a "good poker player" LOL
So all he will do is "defend" his style of play instead of having fun with me!! LOL That's NOT what I'm going for!!
