Absolute shit week for me, would start off most of tourney's really strong then couldnt catch a hand or get out kicked or something when I did catch. Then stupidly went to casino here and lost all the pts that I had been working on building. Cant seem to catch a break at this place but some do. I will be off this list when this weeks standings come out.

**yisman** · 10-13-12, 04:12 PM

had 55, flop 235, I bet the pot, other guy all ins with kk (one of them a heart).

runner runner flush to beat my trips

at least it was in the rebuy

**yisman** · 10-13-12, 05:03 PM

a10 all in preflop for me in pros tourney, called by easyliving's a4. a on flop, 4 on turn

that came right after I had K10 vs. K9 and the board paired twice giving a split.

**yisman** · 10-15-12, 05:18 PM

rivered out of an 87 pot with hauntingtheholy.

I flop 2 pair. He bets the pot, I re-raise. Turn is a club, the third on the board, I bet 2/3 pot, he calls. River is a fourth club, an ace, that also pairs the board and counterfeits my lower pair. He bets 50

edit: 11 pm tourney, I all in with AQ (more than 2 bbs). d2bets calls with 29. He sucks out with a 9 on the river.

**Dux90** · 10-15-12, 06:46 PM

doesnt anyone understand all you have to do is lick balls of SBR mods and you will get what you need, look at all tourney results they are chosen before the fukin hand are dealt. Way to be SBR real stand mother fukers

they have to be rolled over in the ring games

**sh0rt6r** · 10-16-12, 06:44 PM

Thanks...

i understand

**Avskum** · 10-16-12, 08:59 PM

Does money won in ring games count for the sbr poker top 100 ?

**yisman** · 10-16-12, 09:44 PM

no the leaderboard displays poker points won in the weekday tournaments (excluding the newbies one)

1st place gets 400 poker points, thus 400 in standings

**yisman** · 10-16-12, 11:57 PM

finished 2nd in a 3:25 tourney. Frustrating ending. I had QQ, guy was small blind and called to the 1500 bb. I raised 3x. He called. Flop came 10 high. I went all in. He called (stacks about even) with K10. Turn K, river 10.

**Optional** · 10-17-12, 12:36 AM

Ugh. That one does really suck in that spot.

Dealt AK early in 11pm. Goes around the table with 3 or 4 players in for 60 chips. Then TT on my left pushes all in. I put him on a small pair and even though I don't really want to, call.

He had QQ and the board gave us nothing. So out I go.

Should I have called him there?

**yisman** · 10-17-12, 01:04 AM

I probably would've, although when he all ins early he almost always has top pair.

I wound up 26th in the 11 PM. I think AJ ran into AQ or something. Got crippled and then wound up in bb with 910 off, guy shoved all in. I wanted to fold, but people freak out when you fold a bb of 200 with like 400 chips left otherwise. So I figured what the hell, maybe I'll get lucky. Other guy had 10s

**Avskum** · 10-17-12, 06:52 AM

AK vs pocket pair has around 43% to win(exept vs AA and KK ofc). So if there is a third guy who has put a little money in the pot alredy you can go all in. Also SBR poker is full of shit players so the chance that someone pushes with something worse is also there.

**keramas** · 10-17-12, 04:08 PM

Why is timeout action of SBR poker software fold?
It should be check/fold.

**yisman** · 10-17-12, 10:25 PM

what a horrible, horrible day

didn't do well gambling

Dead last in poker tournament after donk VBPro sucked out with A7 over A10.

Bubbled twice in two different blackjack tournaments (prize was a seat to Sunday's 1K tourney). Finished 6th in one where top 5 get seats.

Top 6 get seats in the next one, didn't make it when my 19 was beaten by dealer 20 on the final hand of the round.

**yisman** · 10-20-12, 05:38 PM

mostly good luck today with sbr poker!

**yisman** · 10-20-12, 05:47 PM

I spoke too soon. All in preflop vs. themoneyshot, I have A9 he has A7

flop clean, turn clean, river 7

**keramas** · 10-21-12, 07:50 PM

Help me! I'm in down swing in cash game.

**yisman** · 10-22-12, 08:05 PM

41/41 in 9 PM

dealt K10 first hand, flop came 2 Ks

Augustus had QK

outkicked with flopped trips on the very first hand

**daneblazer** · 10-22-12, 08:38 PM

**Optional** · 10-23-12, 12:54 AM

grrrr. forgot to play Monday.

**CarolinaDaze** · 10-23-12, 01:26 AM

Grrrr i know the damn feeling thats 3rd one ive missed so far, i needed to follow up last weeks cashes with a few more this week.

**yisman** · 10-23-12, 04:20 PM

this guy NuNo just took an 80 pot off me after *#&^$ing out on the river. He keeps doing it.

Calls no matter what I bet, then counterfeits my two pair on the river.

**yisman** · 10-23-12, 05:01 PM

dealt AK, raise big, fadikro calls. Flop comes KJ and a low card. I all in to over 6x the pot. He calls with Q6. Runner runner straight. I lose a 345.4 pot.

Theoretically, playing ring games should be very profitable because people call with zilch repeatedly.

7 PM tourney: I raise preflop with AK to 8x the bb. Seaweed re-raises all in with K9 off, and then rivers a 9 (K on flop).

somehow hung on. gave a bad beat to shock11's AQ with A3, 3 on river. playersonly played horrible and finished 11th.

a few hands later, I all in with AK, ronzer calls with JK. AJ on flop, J on turn, he wins the hand. I lose. Then next hand AJ loses to 610.

**sh0rt6r** · 10-24-12, 07:25 PM

I was in 11th place in a poker tournament, which would 75pontos. I made the rollover, should not have been with 75pontos in my account? Because they gave me 55 points?

**yisman** · 10-24-12, 10:29 PM

You get the points you completed rollover with. You started with 75 points but when you were done with rollover, you had 55 left.

still getting killed at ring games, these three hands were at a 2/4 table:

dealt AJ, I raise to 16 middle position, bigcmo calls

flop low card,9,J, I bet 2/3 pot, bigcmo re-raises all in (to 80 something chips). He shows 910 off

turn Q, river 8. runner runner straight, major suckout

Dealer: yisman shows a pair of jacks.

Dealer: yisman shows a pair of jacks.
Dealer: yisman shows a pair of jacks.
Dealer: bigcmo wins $200.10 with a straight, eight to queen.

========

then I have KK, raise preflop to 16, bigcmo calls with 89 or 910, I forget which, flop comes two 9s.

that was a pot of nearly 200

I don't have the dealer chat because I quit in disgust. Cleaned out my entire buyin.

=========================

Dealer: bigcmo shows high card queen.

Dealer: bigcmo wins $98 with a straight, eight to queen.

I bet the flop, bet 2x the pot on the turn, and this donkey had 2,10 and hit a 9 on the river to hit a gutshot straight.

How do people get in from way behind consistently and hit such a high percentage?

I think you need to claim the hat prize for winning. Not sure how.

**yisman** · 10-26-12, 03:52 PM

final table 3 PM, got my AK all in preflop vs. dogracin's k10. He flopped two 10s

third place, was second in chips with a good shot at winning (would've been chip leader by a lot had it held). oh well.

fuuuuck 21th in a row. set was beaten by backdoor flush.

**yisman** · 10-27-12, 08:21 PM

got 10th today in rebuy, which means a bubble because only the top 9 won actual points. My KJ lost to K8. Wound up being my straight to ace losing to a flush (three clubs on board).

**yisman** · 10-28-12, 05:39 PM

getting very lucky today
