4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

I'm getting really tilty lately due to:

a) bad beats,
b) bad luck and,
c) bad play.

Help me figure out which category these hands fit into...

(Ignore the second hand, I just cut and pasted the entire tournament)

Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

All I can say reading this is that if you called on level one, you would have either had an early double or less agony... Seriously though, don't know about the first but you just lost two coin flips. It happens half the time. So you're due to coin flips to come your way. (Yeah, i know it doesn't work that way, but I feel your pain...)

Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

How is this post benificial to anyone who reads it?
How are those ppls replies benificial to you?

For all hands: you had good reason to put your money in the middle. you won some, you lost some.

Are you looking for a shoulder to cry on? Want a cookie?

Look, no need to get pissy. My question was fairly straightforward -- I don't see why it's so confusing to you. (I even made it multiple choice to simplify it for you.)

No.

Sure.

Look, if you're having a bad day, don't take it out on me. I asked whether these were reasonable calls on level 1. Just because you think they're obvious doesn't mean everyone else does.

Oh, and thanks for the reply, AH.

Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

And by the way, thanks for tilting me, AH.

Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

gotta raise more than 4x w/ AK imo... 11, 22, 33, u raise to 6x and are liable to get 3-4 callers in lvl 1...

im suprised you didn't have any AJs or AQs beating you though as those are actually bad beats...

can't complain about 77 beating you when you limp in PF.

Listen man. You did ask a strightforward question:

My answer:
You put your money in with good reason. You won some you lost some.

If you want me to define that, i mean OPTION B)

OK?

Now i meant the tone that I implied. This is not a good post. This i saying: " i think i played good. I got my money in with some decent hands. I busted"

What the eff do you have a problem with if someone calls is out as such?

Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

Also, if it'll cheer you up, know that i would have got broke one those hands, same as you. Sometimes its just not meant to be. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: 4 hands, 3 big slicks, 10th place
 

I think that he made a couple of mistakes though so maybe if he likes my reasoning then this thread will have been valuable

hand 1: raise more, 60 does nothing. You usually have the best hand so you might as well get more chips in

I think that the last hand is a fairly easy fold. You've been reraised, then a 3rd guy pushed the reraiser all in. I can't see how you can ever be ahead in this situation.
