You gotta love poker...you hate getting beat by the chaser but you have to expect it 1 in 10 times or so. I like those odds, win big pots 9 out of 10 times, I'll take it, and tell the chasing donk, "vnh and well played" when he hits it. Let him think he's playing good poker.

Hmmm I'm so confused. I haven't had that much experience giving you my money. If I recall its the other way around:D;)

Maybe I'm a exception to your rant?

I know. When I read the title of this thread I thought, "Well that explains why Phil plays the way he does!". :)

they call because your raise must be small enough to give them pot odds and they hope for hitting 2 pair then they are gonna win. make ur raise's bigger
What? Re-read my OP and follow-up post, you missed the point of it.

they never call my big preflop with bad hands.
Well to be honest, i don't see why your opponents should fold their 64os to a big raise as nobody would placed them on such a hand.
:D
Surprise is half of the victory.
You probably play some weak hands from time to time nor you won't be a poker player.
Then you should consider that poker is a bluff game and sometimes people decide to make a move while you have a monster hand. Anyway we all deserve bad beats as we all give some too. You can't be an exception.

Hey Phil. To eleviate your pain, you should take the money you make from every donkey who pays you off and buy them a poker book. Make sure you get their address before they leave the table, though. That should make you feel soooo much better.

"Improving the poker community... one donkey at a time." You can do it, man!

lol best thread ever, especially lol at all the people who don't understand the entire post.
^^This is exactly what I wanted to say :D

Only wish I had that many donkeys giving me money :(.
How come you guys all see them and I don't ?

All I see is people who play the same way I do or better..
That means we're all pros right ?

Probably because you play at nose-bleed stakes where people respect your raises.

Not always you can win, i los my last 3 bucks earned in a freeroll, I had QA and raise to 40cents, "donk" calls, Flop: T, 5, 2, "Donk" checks, I make a continuation bet, "donk" calls, Turn: Q, "Donk" goes all in, I call, Donk "Q9" Me: "QA", River: 9... 6% chance hitting on the river..
How are people still responding as if OP is serious? :rolleyes:

Excellent post, philthy.

On the serious note: I do play at a site and stake with some serious loooooooose fish. And I do seem to run into more coolers.

Like incredible stuff that really gets me down, and too much to write down here. But in short, I do sometimes question if I won't be better off at a site like PS.

i have no idea how much your generally raise pf but i like to raise 7.5x pf with premo pairs in a cash game to make the set miners pay to see a flop and i will raise big in tourneys depending on my position at the table and number of limpers. you'd be surprised how much action you get cuz a lot of players think you're doing this with AK or are trying to make a move and even if they fold to you, at least you don't go broke.

You missed point of the post. In fact, did you read the whole thread and see my follow-up post?
