Default Did I really see this?

Watching a $1000 NL game on PartyPoker last night. Some dude pissed away $600 with a 96, having hit nothing on the board and no draw. Did this really happen? Does this really happen? Why didn't I get his name so I could tell all of you who play at that level?

Games. To try to mislead (opponents) in a card game by heavy betting on a poor hand or by little or no betting on a good one.

It happens.

last night there were two limpers then a minraise and three callers at the 3/6 table putting like 45 bucks of dead money in the pot so i went all in for 120 bucks from the SB with 96 off. monster.

unfortunately it was called by KK UTG who was limp reraising. life sucks.

But bluffing by calling all the way...and calling off your entire stack?

I amaze myself how fast I can lose money when I am on tilt. I have pissed away 1000 bucks because I was mad. Perhaps not as bad as what you witnessed but pretty close to it. I still somehow am a winning player.

For example...this was at PP 1000NL. I am in MP and on tilt and probably have 700 behind. I call a pf raise by an idiot who has lost has already rebought 3 times with 97. Flop comes T8x. He bets 40, I reraise to 120, he moves in....and I call and lose to KT. I could have easily taken all this guys money but I was on tilt. I don't play well when mad...

I guess the other people posting in this thread weren't aware that "pissing away" was a synonym for "calling"

My fault...

I should have pointed out he called the flop, turn and river all without ever hitting the board, having any semblence of a draw or raising.
