I just called 911. The BAD BEAT POLICE are on the way.

Ironically I have better results at the $55 tables then I do the at $22 and $33 tables, mainly because there aren't as many donks drawing out on me.

I was able to predict the rest of this post based on this line alone.

You don't understand poker.

You should just play multis. Ok problem solved go back to making millions.

I have always had variance at the sit n go's. I understand that fully.

I read about 1/3 of the way through your first post. I read a couple of the responses. I read the first line of this post.

It's very obvious that you DON'T understand variance at sit-n-go's. I'll try to be polite here because I'm sure you didn't mean to come across as annoying and I'm sure the majority of the responses aren't going to be the nicest in the world. But 12-15 OOTM is NOTHING in sit-n-go's. It's a bad run, but it's seriously nothing. Go search through some threads in the STT forum. You'll see 400 game losing streaks (not OOTM streaks, but 400 game down-swings nontheless). You'll see 20+ game OOTM streaks. You'll see worse than you thought was possible. And this is from winning players.

IMO, you just haven't played enough to get a true grasp of what variance really is. I can tell that from the little of your posts that I did read. It's OK, I know where you're coming from... I've been there myself. But until you accept that streaks like the one you just went through ARE a part of poker, you won't be able to survive this game for very long.

Go search through some old threads in the STT forum. Use the search function. And read this thread too. It might help a bit. My $.02.

I wonder if the guys at Empire laughed at your "letter" to them as much as I did.

The purpose of this post is to see if anyone else still plays on empire and how their experience has been.

I have had EXCELLENT results on Empire since the split. I mainly play $22's but sometimes play $55's (if that's where I see you on my buddy list). I also do better at 55's but prefer to play the $22's because I always see you their and took all your fcking money HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Time and time again, 2+2 posters prove that they are the REAL donks, falling for the clearly phony trolling, baiting posts over and over.

Probably because we know that there are actually people out there that think along these lines.
