Not tonight, Bill . . . too little sleep the last couple nights. Might effect my "game" . . .

wildbill7145 · Sep 22,2011, 07:12 PM

Oh c'mon, I'm usually falling asleep half way through these games. I'm sure you can do it.

Just turn the volume on the laptop up. That alert sound is something I've considered putting on my blackberry. It's very 'alerting'.

Anyhoo, either way. Have a great night.

Alright..

I'm in for fun.. I'm either succumbing to the 5 beers, or just a jerk. I'm putting a ... $2 bounty on.......................................

Hmm... Mario! (Psst.. don't say anything, he never reads the forum)

Should be right in your Canada's Poker Forum notifications.

Under home games? You're still a member of the club correct?

1st - DrTyore
2nd - forboon
3rd - Enterprise00

DrTyore · Sep 22,2011, 10:43 PM

Okay, not to sass (much)

But forboon... I have told you MANY times... you need to adjust, and from what I've seen, you REFUSE to do so... and that's fine if you want to consistently be a D-grade player (note: I say D-grade, because at best, I'm a C+). Again, raise more with your bets, learn to adjust to the players, and stop trying to snake in the least-risk scenarios...

Look

I have spent time trying to explain through logic, math, and common sense. You ignore it. I don't need to post any hand histories because of something you yourself mentioned in another thread - something about "conditions / circumstances, the players involved" and blah blah blah

Here's an example of what a HH I would post would basically be

Seat 1: someone (SB)
Seat 2: DrTyore (BB)
.
.
.
Seat 9: Darbday (D)

Blinds 50/100

- Here's my read on BB: He and I have a lot of history. He constantly tells me I do not raise enough, and will call with any two cards if I do my standard raise (1-1.5x the BB). He has told me repeatedly / shown down absolute garbage cards that he either bluffed me off with or beat when he hit a bigger hand. He is aggressive, and often shows down solid hands at showdown. He is capable of firing on every street with air.

Dealt to Darbday (AKhh)

Folded to Seat 9, who raises to 225
SB folds
BB calls

Pot - 500
Flop - three cards that aren't an A, K, or two hearts

BB bets 350
D folds

*OR*

BB bets 350
D bets 725
BB bets 2000
D folds

Regardless, you can't have it both ways and say that I need to consider the circumstances. At the VERY least if you're coming after my blind ADJUST FOR ME. If you think your hand is better and are happy with winning the minimum, fine. BUT if you're a smart player, you're going to make me make the biggest mistake.
