i've been playing poker online for a bout 2 years and i've started to see some funny, strange, interesting things. i thought i'd share some of mine and maybe you guys have some too.

- 1.25 9 man sng. one player played every single pot. seriously, he took out 5 players. he had about 8000, while the remaining 3 players ( including myslef) had around 1500 chips. then the other 2 players took him out. i played zero pots and was ITM. so he basically did all the work, then busted :eek:

- 1.25 9 man sng. one player had some sort of friend giving him tips througout the game. later, the friend told him to tighten up. then everyone started stealing blinds from him. for a few orbits LOL. i thought that was funny.

- random one in NL. i had some sort of K and 2 players in the pot. the board becomes something like J K 10 Q A. no flushes on board and i bet at the river and they both fold LOL.

so yeah. i'm sure there are plenty more at the higher stakes!

when i first started playing i was in a 1+.1 sng 10 player game and a guy went all in every hand and ended up winning ..i played tight and came in second.
- just yesterday at bodog in a 2+.2 10 man beginner sng i was the chip leader with 3 to go and lost a big pot then the next hand i folded after the flop with 120 chips left and the second place guy got taken out...THEN i won like 4-5 in a row and 10 minutes later i WON....oh the blinds were 200/400 when i had my 120 chips......never give up!

I played one of those super turbos on FT a while back.

First hand, 7 people go all in. There were 4 pocket pairs (JJ, 99, 77, 55) and three Ax hands. The JJ took it.

I ended up 2nd.

I had a screen shot, but couldn't find it.

I will try to rack my brain but in the last 2 days:

- Playing a 210fpp and out of 20 entrants the top 6 all get a tournament ticket. There is no difference between finishing 1st and 6th. Well on the bubble I have 3 big blinds. Suddenly the 2nd biggest stack shoves, gets called by the 4th biggest stack, and then the cheap leader on the big blind shoves too. Suddenly I found myself ITM :)

- Last night I stacked off at the flop with QQ on a 278 board (or something like that) and the villain shows up with a flush draw and an over card (I'm a 60-40 favorite) and he sucks out. He then types into the chat window "SUCK IT!" ... I guess he tried to get me on tilt. He failed.

5 top pairs

Nothing special but rare enough that I took the screenshot. Just wish I'd put my cursor to my screen name so that my pair of tens would've showed too:(
