Thanks Bored, I tell what I will do I will sent you back your 2 Points you paid me
then you can pay Beerdog the points you owe him, I just enjoyed making that Bet
the Points are not that important to me, just thought I back a good Poker Player
I have played against 4uK a few times and actualy came out a little ahead
Thanks again for paying your Debt it shows you are keeping your Word

A person's Word, does not mean much to people on the net . But if there is no honor amongst poker players about repayment all we are left with is a bunch of Mike The Mouth's running around.

who calls 4 times the big blind raise, pre-flop, with 2-3. the guy who took my chips. who calls 6 times the big blind raise. pre-flop, with 8-9? the guy who knocked me out. is this shit rigged or am i just incredibly unlucky, everyday. holy cow, this kinda sucks already. both caught straights.

Ya, there are some crazy-blind plays out there.
And people are getting really nasty in the poker games. I am surprised at the level of venom and nasty attitudes here sometimes. Overall I think there are a lot of nice and smart people here in SBR but man there are quite a number of people who have no concerns with spitting out vitriole at the drop of a simple "lol".... Wow.
Good luck all (except may a little less for Thad as he seems to already have his fair share...:_)
Be Happy.
Cheers.

Bosco man I'm rooting for you. Your a solid player with a bad luck streak the size of Ireland's HU's skills . You will find that each little slice of SBR has it's own sub culture. I personally venture into all of them, but I find in honesty you can't beat the poker section.
I believe it has to do with that the fact poker players are groomed to ask, think, and help one another in all aspects of our betting sport . From strategy to consultation to even Staking we all have been there for one another which honestly for a FORUM is amazing.

Ireland bud you didn't read the post right . I can only send 2 points a day period. It's not 2 points per poster per day. It's 2 points period. So you sending me 5 did nothing except give me 5. 5 which I couldn't resend back either lol.
In other words the 2 I sent you today tapped me on my max for the day. Regardless if you gave them back or not I can't send anymore today.

I made the wrong choice in which tournament to play in and I accidentally called a 500 chip bet when I was trying to click check.

Wow, Thaddeus is in 1st place right now with 15 people left in the 10pm ET....how does he get so lucky? Does he win all coin flips and never take a sick beat or something or what? There is a point where even if you're good it doesn't matter, even when I make all the right moves/plays I usually take a sick beat...this 8 page thread is littered with my bad beat responses since this contest began as I'm sure many of you have read...my suited AK losing to unsuited AK, my AK losing to AQ....on and on.
I'm gonna spectate him right now and see how he does, I gotta watch how he does this time and time again.
BTW Thaddeus if you read this you need to get an avatar u lazy ass

Hes running good and he s a good player. Combo the two and you'll usually get pretty far. I had a spurt last month where I final tabled 8 straight tourneys as I ran phenomenal. Now, cant win when I have them dominated and a coin flip I might as well accept as a loss.
Congrats again Thad

Finished 5th...
To answer your question, I have ben fortunate to get good cards when I needed them and take very few bad beats this month. Last month, I ran well below expectation, but this month I've run well above expectation. Today's tourney was actually a struggle. I won nothing much for the first 45 minutes, including having everyone fold to my big blind when I had KK. (Folding all the way around basically never happens early.) Finally, I won a 3 way allin - my AQ vs 10 10 and 8 8 (I was first to allin) to triple up. Lost about half back on horrid beat though. 10 9 8 flop and I have 10 9 in BB. I put guy allin and he calls with AQ, rivering the J.
So, now I have about 5 BBs left and suddenly things turn around. I allin A10 and everyone folds (which is what I wanted). 2-3 hands later I have AA and raise, guys reraises allin and I double up. 2-3 hands later, I take down some more blinds with AK. 2-3 after that I have AA again and double up again. Thus, I went from nearly out to 1st place in about 1 rotation.
The rest of the tournament was break even poker for me until I lost a flip with 5 left to cripple me and then went out a few hands later.
And yes, I do need to pick an avatar already.

I just played so friggin bad. had KK and flop came 5J something else low. I bet to the river with 99 on turn and river and guy pushes all in. I'm thinking he has a set so I fold. I asked him to show and he had 52. Very next hand I have K10 with KA3 on flop. I bet guy raises, I call and turn comes 10. I bet he raises all in and has A3 Worst tourney yet.

Brutal.
Slow played KK, min raising. Some guy keeps shoving. Turns out he had 3/10 and flopped a 10. Dude rivers a 10 and wins with three of a kind, beating my two pair.

I think I was first guy out of 3pm... didn't even look but I lost on first hand with 1010. Hit a 10 on the turn and shoved all in to tadomatics raise. tad had KQ, i think the flop was 6Q9. 10 came... he hit the straight on the river.

Another day of SBR poker where the best hand hardly ever wins, I had KK and tad0matic had KK as well, garretman raised to 1,200 preflop with 10,10 and me and tad both called. Flop comes 10-2-2 and fuks both me and tad with our KK. Game over.
I finished 18th..right outside the final table yet again. It seems like I always place somewhere in the teens 13th-18th and just cannot get the right luck to make the final table more often. I need some of that Thaddeus luck.
BTW Yisman, I told you it wasn't over when you said you were done, u made the final table.
