6-max blues thread (no content post your sob stories here)

droolie · #1 06-20-2005, 10:25 PM

The HUSH forum doesn't seem to like the therapuetic bad beat threads too much so I thought I'd post this here. (I really wish they would seperate out micro 6-max from the small stakes and middle limits 6-max. The games are so different and they old vets can't stand 6-max newbs.)

Here is a nice little screenshot from my weekend. I think my 3 of a kinds were underperforming. (The set of KK's in the middle were beaten by a runner runner flush with a guy holding 95s. He apologized to me in the chat box after the hand ended.)

My str8's weren't performing much better until the last hand of my session.... there are few thing more satisfying than a loose call being so richly rewarded

Needless to say TT isn't the powerhouse it used to be. LOL!


That hand took me off the suicide watch but I still feel like am at the beach after seeing JAWS for the 1st time.

87s on the CO after two loose limpers is fine. if you had it on the button after two and folded, it would be bad. nice hand.

i think you should wait until you run at -10 bb/100 for 1000 hands before posting something like this. you ran at about +1 bb/100 for 150 hands. this is no sob story.

Are you the one that ran 6BB/100 at .50/1 through a huge amount of hands?

If so, shut up.

As of now, I'm hitting 4.5BB/100 at 1/2 SH through 2k.

*crosses fingers and hopes to be above 3/100 after 10k so he can start 4-tabling 2/4 and getting decent rakeback*

then again, maybe 6-max is a good game...
