My first poker hustle
I had seen a couple of other guys play a low limit games and sucker someone into play heads up on a higher limit. It worked for them, so I figured I'd give it a try.
I entered a $1 tournament. 5 minutes into it, some donk (who's not even playing - he's observing a $1 tournament) makes a ridiculous table coach comment to a guy playing. I started leaning into the guy and he challenges me to a heads up match....beautiful. He thinks he's talking big as he offers to play for $5. I tried to talk him into playing for $200, but he wouldn't go for it. I talked more [censored] at him as was able to get him to play heads up $3/6 holdem. He got creamed. He bought in for $300, so it was more than the original offer he refused. My favorite hand is when he called a pre-flop raise, a flop bet, a turn bet and a river bet with 73os and no pair, no draw because "he knew I had nothing." Good strategy. I may just try this again sometime. |

Re: My first poker hustle
2+2er's share ideas. It's not a brag thread. It's sharing profitable information. If you can play poker, this is worth more than 20 party reloads. If you can't play poker, you can make penis jokes.
I feel secure with my real life 8-incher, thank you. I feel bad for the woman you little guys are with. It must be difficult to feel like a real man. |

Are you that stupid that you didn't quite grasp the concept? Play a low limit game and sucker $300 out of someone. Not a waste of time....it's a profitable play. I guess you wanted to join the bash party and come up with something as clever as a penis joke; but you just couldn't quite pull it off. |

Re: My first poker hustle
your a donk, plain and simple

Re: My first poker hustle
Wow, why'd everyone jump down the guy's throat? He found a fish, and got him to play heads up for $300 and took money off of him. He doesn't deserve the hostility.

Re: My first poker hustle
maybe others are hostile since they didn't get the fish on the line. I admit that I have done it. Why else play the crappy ass dollar SNG tourneys at Stars. Worse yet, they have watchers (or better name...losers). Do I really care about winning the 14 dollars for first. Nooooooo. I wait until someone chimes in with their opinion and whether I agree with them or not, I always jump down their throat. Just to incite an argument and hopefully get them to challenge me. I have done it and I have always beaten the challenger. Then I cash that money out immediately. I take myself out to a nice dinner on them.

Re: My first poker hustle
I'd rather hear stories about getting a total donk to play heads-up against you, and the donk goes on a HUGE tear. The donk plays every hand, bets every street, re-rasies you every time you raise, and hits miracle after miracle. I want to hear about the clever pro (that's you) dropping 200 big bets before the donk decides to quit playing you and changes his username from Terminator666 to Obliviator420.

[/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] Not to anyone in particular: people jumped down his throat b/c it's just bad form. I consider it bad form to goad someone into playing, and even if you think that's legit, I consider it bad form to run bragging about it after. Besides - anyone who plays any SH or HU knows the 50 BB could easily have gone the other way. What's the point here? |

So much less work. |
Re: My first poker hustle
It's better than I thought given the title. I was expecting to hear how he and a bud managed to double team someone for a few $$.
Not that I'm arguing with your conclusions to his status. |
Re: My first poker hustle
first this guy shouldn't be ridiculed, he may be a donk but [censored] those observers can be so [censored] annoying.
[ QUOTE ] cough bullshit cough [/ QUOTE ] true, you won't always win but it seems like every douchebag that is steaming and then offers a challenge is a terrible HU player. |
