-99.9% (the losses are so great any amount won in poker cant overcome more than .1%)

damn bot

[Bigwig]

Piss off. My horrible run has continued, and I don't want to hear any success stories.

*bad mood*

Hopefully this will make you feel better:

Today 48 $30 SNGs, down 20 buyins in the first 24, down 18 buyins overall.

And this is after being down 15 buyins over my last 100.

I guess the bright side is nobody that subscribes to pokerprophecy can accuse me of being a pro.

always look at the bright side!

[curtains]

I am the champion of sit and gos. Despite repeated disconnections during my last two sets, while late in the tournament, once even blinding me out while itm, I managed to win a small amount. I'm blessed by Jesus the last few weeks, I cannot seem to lose no matter what.

Wish i had your blessing...I need money for the summer

[DasLeben]

I cut off a couple of my games to go cover for pergesu after he got disconnected last night (he had a good amount more money at stake than I did). Once I was done with his, I got back to one of my games to find myself with t460 in the BB with blinds 50/100. I came back to win it. Bahah.

This is kinda off topic, but wouldn't you want people to think that you are a pro? When I play ring games at B&M I want to look like a fish so that people pay me off, but in SnGs I don't mind if people think that I'm a pro and are less likely to call my pushes because they are afraid of me

[Seadood228]

I would be more likely to call a pro's pushes than someone who I have no information on...

This is LATE in a tourney though... Early on your right.

Also, I would feel more comfortable pushing on a pro's blind because they tend to have a better understanding of the gap concept.

That only becasue you know how a "pro" is supposed to play. The fish don't think that way (and yes, plenty of fish use prophecy)
