The Highest Ive ever played Online.

Hey people, Firstly let me just say I aint proud of this post but in the name of sharing and my emotional recovery I am gonna post it.
ok, for those of you who play on Fulltilt and Stars you will know that you can Rail and chat the Big tables on FT but not Stars. I tried unsuccessfully to chat to ADZ124 big NL ringame player even though i had ground my roll up to that limit of buyin" Chat observer turned OFF"
So I think i am real smart and i buyin to a table or 2 and automatically sitout Genius Right? Wrong! on my 3rd attempt at this little scam I got distracted and forgot to sit out before i knew it i hadposted a $50 blind and an UTG player raised 150 at this point im screaming right i got 102off so i regretablly fold next hand i post SB $25(god things happen fast at this level) its folded around to me i have 32off arrrrrrrgh think for like 2secs and raise to 150. Now i had 1 barrel if he raised im obv folding but i think if he called im in just as much trouble bearing in mind my entire Bankroll of $1095 is in play here that i have built over like 2 years anyway the happy ending is Thankfully he folded i got my bolt on couldnt stop laughing for like 10mins coz i was so relieved and i finished even. Moral of the story dont bump onions with the Big boys even accidentally like i did Gl at the tables Damon789 a.ka.Steamer107

Ouch mate, that coulda got real bad... Still can't quiet work out why you even wanted to join the table???? :-S

I guess you learned your lesson. IMHO the raise to $150 was poor. I would have folded and saw my free hands and probably left down $75.

LOL funny story. least u learnt ur lesson that if observer chat is off then f it, wait for a better time.

Plus i would of seen the rest of ur cards b4 u come bk round to the BB. u never know u cud of came across AA or KK which is allways worth a pop at, even with the high rollers lol.

So....you gonna tell us the juicy part? Who is ADZ124, why did you wanna talk to him/her, and did you get a chance to? What did you say? Enquiring minds. Glad you could recoup.

LMFAO

HILARIOUS

Seems Damon used up his 7 posts for the day, so he sent me a PM. Then I asked if he wanted me to go ahead and post it for him, and he said yes. So, here it is:

Damon789 the Highroller.
Hey Dive, ty for ur response to my post. Unfortunately being a noob my 7 posts are up for the day so i hope u dont mind this private mess. Ok ADZ124 prob won more $$$ IN Ringames than any one else at 10/20 and above in NL on Stars just a viciuos player ive watched him for a while unfortunately he didnt respond to my chat i think i asked him about the girl he had on his Avatar pic he had removed it something like that. Oh well def learnt my lesson tho. Love this forum btw great set up Gl at the tables

Hey Beer, tx for the post dude. The reason i joined table was because i couldnt chat any other way unless i had $$$ on the table as for wanting to chat with the high rollers well i just wanted to be a little more apart of there world at the High Limits but i found it was cold dark and scary he he once again i learnt my lesson ill stick to railing on FT. peace out

Hey Ukalik, lol thats exactly what my mate said unfortunately at that stage it was 4 handed so even if i had the presence of mind to think of that (obv i was completely devoid of any neural function at that stage) I only had 1 free hand left so i guess you and my mate could be right however I also could of popped ACes and got donked too lol peace out buddy

Hey Jordan tx for your post sir, def learnt my lesson there as for my raise with 32off in sb that is just 1 part of the entire situation that was poor but sometimes ya just wanna gamble in Hindsight bad move but as i said in my post I had 1 barrel I was getting even $$$$ 150 for 150 i thought there was a better chance than 50% he would fold so the cards didnt matter I reckon. But you're absolutely right I dont make a habit of raising with the worst Hot n cold hand in holdem even HU.peace out

Nice ......
Learn as you go ........

Nothing wrong with breaking even .......

LOL, that is hilarious, but at least u learned your lesson,
and got a little taste of the higher stakes

So if I had a $1,000 BR and lost 2 buyins at $25NL and decided to play $200NL to win back the $50, is that ok if I break even?

No, but you're taking it somewhat out of context.

He accidentally bought into a game that was out of his BR and had to post the SB, though you think he would have just clicked to sit out during the first hand. He didn't, because as he stated, everything happened so fast, he probably was frantic that he was in a hand to begin with and just didn't think to click it. Though I'm sure you can argue he should have folded the small blind and left the table because he has no right playing the round in any case, because risking his entire bankroll on one hand, whether it be A's or K's in the hole, would not be the right move to make. So all-in-all your and his "break-even" cases aren't exactly the same because yours were intentional.

When you play with fire sometimes you get burned. You're lucky you escaped with no finaical wounds.

If you have AA, you should still get all in if you can with your whole bankroll on the table. You have an expected value of 160% of your bankroll, which is huge. If you go broke, reload and know that you still made the right decision.

Obviously you don't want to be in this position but once you have an 80/20 edge for your bankroll you have to take it.

lmao well now maybe u wont wanna talk to somebody that badly.

i cant believe you sat at the table with a friggin 50 dollar blind holy piss man. way outta your league man haha.

you should have played a couple more hands to see if you could quadruple your BR lol peace

Hey buddy, ofcourse im not folding AA If i happenend to wake up with it in the middle of that Nightmare. With only 20 times the BB I aint playing shortball with it either I woulda been "ALL IN BABY" as that drunken Genius Scotty Nguyen would say. he he.

Hey Patty tx for the post,
Did it again the other night on a 10/20 thought Id move dwn this time had a chat to "wobblyau" he's a fellow aussie player. Sat out within milliseconds of siting dwn tho he he. You are right tho way outta my league. As for your comment on seeing a few more hands u missed the comment on that Early in the post to Uralikis u may wanna back track to that. tx for the feedback GL at the tables Damon789 A.k.a Steamer107

very funny story, glad your mistake didn't dent your bankroll. i read all the posts but still don't understand why you want to talk to these guys. if you got free time on your hand you should be grinding the tables. if your feeling talkative i suggest going out and talking to some fine females, but be careful they can dent your roll too, lol.

lol. howdy old poker buddy!!!!!!! even though ive heard the story once, still laughed me head off just reading it again. get out of there damon789........
BIG MERV!!!!

Very Funny yes I am hilarious tx for the feedback

Hey PhiIIILLL , tx for the feedback I just rail those guys at the end of my sessions for a bita fun. As for chattin to the "ladies" whole heartedly agree big bankroll denter. Thankfully im past all that Im Happily married ( I'm marrired and the wifes happy) cheers Gl at the tables.

You also forgot to mention the part about ADZ being a massive douchebag, but yeah he's kinda good at poker.

lol!! incredible story!!! i are lucky that that problem didn't affect too much your bankroll, but one thing? why you always try to speak that playerS?

this is one question in generall, do you people recommend speaking in tables chat?or is better dont?

RyC17
see you in the tables

RY I dont recommend speaking at table chat as a matter of fact 99% of the time I have mine turned off as i seems to be a big distraction to me. It cuts way down on the crap not haveing to hear the professor trying to coach you or the heckler makeing fun or the guy with the bad beat go on tilt and berate the whole table. I really have never gleemed much use for table chat at all. If im in a tourney i will usually say good luck to the table then off it goes.

lol...to funny that blogg,,,,,bet u was ill wen u posted blind.....ive done another stupid thing as bad as that 1,,i was on betfred playin on a 6 handed cash tab playin on 50 1...durin the game i was clikin on another pokersite watchin mi m8 playin in a comp..so obv i was switchin fairly regular between the 2 sites on a overlay on mi screen,,,this 1 hand i was watch mi m8 on other site and just as cliked bak to bet fred i hit all in button which was 170 dllrs bi mistake,,,,,i only had 9 2 offsiut theres was 1 other guy in the bettin he instantally called ,,,,,he had 99,,,,,omg i nearly threw up obv i lost the lot ,,,,so thanks to your blogg for remindin me ..lol

This sounds like the sort of thing that would happen to me...However i cant think of any thing id like to ask any one thats worth putting that money on any table if its all i have..hehe unless it was 'Whats the meaning of life' and god was at the table

I wouldn't get on the table to ask what's the meaning of life. I already know. Squeeze in as many poker hands as I possibly can in between being a Husband, Father and holding down a full time job till I croak.

OMG! OMG! OMG! There should be a little nag feature that asks you to confirm all-ins. I almost wanna say (but not sure) there is a site that lets you choose, in the options, whether ot not you want to get a popup that asks you to confirm if that's what you wanna do. That is 1 sad story. I'd think this kind of thing happens all the time. And you were just at 2 tables.

Know when I've made this kind of mistake? When I'm actually in 2 games and busy doing other stuff too (including drinking lol), and look at my hole cards at 1 table, and the cards on the board at the 2nd table, and raise.

Now that's funny.
