Ever get crap for being an "internet" player from live players?

[jakethebake]

Internet poker is rigged.

I'll be the judge of this, and no, actually he doesn't. Close, but no. No.

The 10/20 at Trump is a joke... If old guy was any good he wouldn't have cared about chasing you down and would instead be focusing on the 5+ fish who were probably at the table. Next time you're there try out the 2/5 NL, it's even more of a money tree. Next time someone gives you crap about playing on the internet just tell them to look out for your "internet fingers." Then tap your fingers madly on every hand.

Just play dumb. You're not there to prove them how good you are at poker, you're there to take their money. If you succeed in convincing them you're a poker player, then you're hurting your profits.

When someone asks me how I could possibly stay in with a hand like that (either live or internet) I will say something like "I thought he might only have a pair of 5s" or "I just had a feeling" or "the voices in my head told me to call"


I do NOT say "well...I still thought there was a 10% chance that my hand was good due to the combined chances of him just having overcards OR a busted draw....and I was getting the appropriate pot-odds to call-down in such a situation."



One time the player to my left whispered to me "I folded a king-high flush-draw there. Do you think I did the right thing?" and I replied "depends if you thought another diamond was coming or not. And then if you thought someone had the ace of diamonds. It's tricky."



Making as little sense as possible in your at-the-table hand-analysis is +EV.

FWIW, based on my experience, few people who get worked up this easily ever get very good at poker.

Probably true. But I could make a solid case for being one of the few.


About time you commented on this thread. Was waiting for you to slam me on it for awhile now.

Whatever, no big deal man. You just seem to get really worked up really easily.

Yer absolutely right. I used to take a lot of crap for being very small when I was a kid (i was 4'8" and 85 lbs midway through junior year in HS), and I guess a lot is still carryover from that. I just hate it when people cut other people down just to make themselves look/feel better.

And yet, you provide the lob that facilitates the slam-dunk execution of said offense on a daily basis... funny...
