Do you fall for temptation on some cards?

Like yesterday. I have a 39o in small blinds and fold. Flop shows 399. Another time I have low pocket pairs and I fold to PF raise. Flop gives me a set.

It's tempting to go in with low cards on the next hand but I don't (unless I can check my way in). My blood pressure reaches 200 whenever this happens.

No, and you have a lot of misconceptions to remove from your understanding of poker before you should be playing at more than micro stakes.

Wow. Mr Perfect has showed up. God forbid I talk about anything that might slightly deviate from EV.

So what's it like being a robot who has no emotions at the poker table and just applies mathematical probabilities to his game? I want to be like you.

Are there any kiddie tables I can play at? I'm not worthy of micros. Maybe I'll just delete my PP and PS accounts.

You also have a tilt problem that will destroy your ability to succeed in this game and a personality problem that will lead to a life of lonliness and despair.

Speak for yourself. You're the one that attacked me. Sorry you're too insecure to have a little conversation about temptations and the randomness of poker.

I've read other posts and am amazed at the lack of civility against OPs. Just be nice. You're smart. You're beautiful. You're a winner. Act that way.

jason_t's response was hardly an attack. I think that was the general sentiment of everyone who read your post.

Sorry that your attempt to start conversation didn't work out so well. It usually won't.

I wouldnt go that far. Have you seen how he responds to a bad beat? It can get pretty ugly.

Now I feel bad. I see you are working on your degree at UCLA math. I'm getting my degree from Courant. We should be nicer to each other.

You're cute.

I don't feel that my first reply to you in this thread was mean at all. It was harsh truth that you need to hear if you think asking questions like the one you posed are interesting.

Sammy, just put Jason_T on perm ignore. He is the dik of the forum and particularly likes to pick fights with new posters.
