***February Fever Poker Chat***

[belladonna05]

so when are u gonna play the million?

When I get a chance? I may have to donk off all the steps just once to try it. I know 4 is easy to attain, somehow I'll bet the other 3 won't be.

You don't, you just hope they do in a fire .

Seriously you should be thrilled he shoved with A5.
Whenever I go up against a shortie it's almost always my KK < AA or QQ< KK.

They make me sad.

Well I can do without this excitement lol....

Was that the warmup donna ?

 

[belladonna05]

Yes it is.....I sucked out on some guy with aces in a double or nothing so karma does kick your arse sometimes.

 

[F Paulsson]

Thus endeth my 400NL shot. 5 buy-ins below EV when you only have 5 buy-ins set aside for the shot is... Well.

Let me put it like this:

****.

Now I'm going to go watch some episodes of Scrubs and leave this week be.

Oh boy. I decided to take a 1 buy-in shot at 5KNL, just to see what it's like.

Pretty standard really, but I had no idea my heart could pound this hard. I concluded that I won't play this high anytime soon. But it feels awesome to have played 60 hands of 25/50.

Well my first large buy in online tourney was a failure..theres always next week I suppose Btw this guy had went all in with 10s just before so....

Thats so sick Bella, I think I'd rather see the K hit the flop tbh.... I hate the way it always seems to hit the river! UL Bella.

 

[eNTy]

You sir are one sick mo fo!

+1 QFMT imo ldo and all that jazz..

 

[eNTy]

I hate sessions like this.

Play for 1.5 hours, up 2 buyins for the biggest part of that time. Then lose 2 buyins in the space of 2 minutes. AK < KJ who hit a 3 outer and I stacked off with AK on A69 flop vs a set which was bad.

Can i be your groupie? I dont really like guys but i can make an exception,this hand got me all excited....

 

[switch0723]

**** me, running so bad

 

[Chris_TC]

Man, to cool down I'm currently playing one table of 2/4. I bought in for $389.50 with auto-rebuy turned off. My HEM stats are: 52/5

After some fish beat my straight with his boat, I berated him and called him "fish".
This is sooo funny, obviously my hand reading abilities still give me an edge postflop, and I play almost like I normally would postflop. But due to my preflop style everyone at the table thinks I'm awful

 

[blankoblanco]

**** me, running so bad

hang in there man, fight the good fight. just make sure you're continually getting it in in good spots, and keep doing it. don't let the bad luck mess with your awesome game <3

 

[switch0723]

wtf, i havn't had a set hold up in so long, im beginning to become a firm believer that draws > sets

 

[feitr]

lol bad session today tho i ended up $100 somehow, which is basically break even over 3hrs. I am the king of getting it in dead is all i can say...92 on 992kx board dead, straight < flush on turn w/ most of the money in already dead, AA crai on turn when only a GS got there dead + twice getting counterfeited on the river and getting snapped by ace high when i am now forced to bluff and once calling off my stack when villain hits a 4:1 on the river which was getting shoved by him no matter what. And the absolute best was flopping a flush draw + pair + GS, hitting 2 pair on turn to go with GS + flush draw and villain ofc peeling flop with a GS that hit on turn. That said, while i seem to get it in dead constantly when i'm not drawing dead i actually run real good in EV pots last little while so no complaints coz it probably balances out.

I did manage to win something today tho.
