[censored] those step tourneys

[theredpill5]

I don't know what the hell happened to me but I'm just losing everything.

I'm getting bluffed off everything. I just suck basically.

KK, only one preflop caller to my raise.

Flop: A A Q

I think, "Oh [censored] !"
pot = 300

I bet 300.
Guy immediately reraises me all-in for $1000

I'm like. God damn. I just know he has an ace.

I fold.

He shows TT . I'm officially on tilt.

I should just stick to cash games.

[censored] poker. [censored] party poker.

hillarious

Curious, why did you bet the size of the pot on the flop?

[psyduck]

Come on dude, the fact that two aces came up and not just one should make you happy /images/graemlins/smile.gif Also, if he flopped trips or a full house, a more likely line would be for him to minraise or raise just a little, instead of chasing you away.

I would have called this, but what do I know, I just play 10+1s where there is no second level thinking /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Also I hope that you realize that two aces is much less scary than one ace, especially when he is raising you all in.

[theredpill5]

I just give up trying to figure out these guys.

Exactly what I was thinking about "why would he raise me all-in if he had trip aces"

Rewind to a few weeks ago. Maniac guy who I think put me on permanent tilt or at least semi-permanent.

I called a minimum raise preflop with AK. Maniac was just beginning to go nuts on everyone.

Me and maniac seeing the flop. Blinds were about 25/50. He had raised to 100 and I called with AK

Flop: 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif A/images/graemlins/club.gif

Ok. I check in BB because maniac likes to bet.
Maniac checks.

Turn: 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif

I bet 200
Maniac reraises all-in for 1400 or something like that.

I'm like WTF. If he had a flush why would he reraise that much and be like that. Wouldn't he raise me something that I would actually want to call.

I call.

Maniac shows 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif

hands like these have shown me that some players even at the $50s lack a basic understanding of this game

Well, we all knew that.

Don't go back to losing in the cash games, I don't think this forum could live on without your numerous insightfull bad beat posts and random ranting and cursing ;/

[zambonidrivr]

yes. and teach all your friends and family to play too. spread the word wise one.

[Benal]

Nice to see you havent changed Mr. Pill.

[theredpill5]

So I take a $200 stack to a 6 max NL because I can play NL cash games.

Plop my money down and see a sucker on my left with $200 as well.

88 raise to $4

Flop: Q 8 J pot=16

perfect
he checks
I bet $9
he calls

Turn: J pot=30
Sweet.
he checks
I bet $20
He calls
wow, what the hell ?

River: Q

Oh great. WTF. You kidding me. I'm going to bed and not playing anymore. One of the worst days.

He showed Q To

It wasn't even suited.

I'll be seeing him tomorrow.

[Voltron87]

huh?

[EverettKings]

What step is this exactly? You have to vary your play A LOT between different levels. People go from weak/loose/LAG in the early stages to weak tight in steps 3 and 4 to a mix of good and weak tight players at step 5.

"I'm getting bluffed off everything. I just suck basically. "

It would appear so. Pretty much every post you make is a complaint.
