And it's called a semi bluff...ever hear of it?) and my M for the 88 vs. JJ (which was a fraction of everyone else at the table - I believe it was TWO). Both are PRETTY DAMNED IMPORTANT before calling me names, don't you think? <BR/><BR/>Don't make me out to be a fucking idiot.

Joanned went over the top with her AA. I folded because her raise put me all in.<BR/><BR/>But if she hadn't, I was calling with my 89, and since the board came with a T67, I would have been the subject of this post, all by my lonesome!<BR/><BR/>PS. She called my 1200 PF raise (300BB) out of position with QT and hit two pair to knock me out.

Poor Fuel got killed with her 6's. Now I know how really freaking annoying it is to hear "I felt it" as a reason for calling a re-reraise. <BR/><BR/>I apologise to everyone who has ever heard it from me. :-)katitudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12764863359579704860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410122.post-1158845009581985392006-09-21T06:23:00.000-07:002006-09-21T06:23:00.000-07:00That was fun, Waffles.

In your old age you seem like you might be mellowing. Just a little bit.<BR/><BR/>Anyways I love being the subject of any portion of a Waffles rant. And frankly, I agree with almost everything you said in your post. The KJ call of your re-reraise is just about the worst thing I've ever seen. It's worse than calling when you're behind -- it's calling when she <B>knows</B> she is dominated and has at most a 20% chance to win. That is just not fair that people get paid off on calls like that.<BR/><BR/>I don't mind her 88 call that much vs. my JJ (I mind the suckout a bit more). I'm like you in a way -- people always put me on a wide range of hands, even though I generally play only strong hands in tournaments unless I am short stacked. So I know she figured I could have anything so she called with 8's, what she figured to be likely ahead of my wide range of hands. That makes some sense to me. It doesn't even compare to call an allin re-reraise with KJ. Sooted or otherwise!<BR/><BR/>It's the same exact story actually with my 4's against you. Of course I called the reraise there -- I was pot committed at that point, and knew when I made the initial move with the 4's that I was calling any allin reraise if it came. I figured I had a pair and there was a good chance you didn't. It's that simple. Good play and good luck for you.<BR/><BR/>I'm just glad you're back playing in these tournaments again, and doing these rant posts. And as always I loved those horrific calls you made last night. There is nothing like knowing you're out there on Waffles-tilt somewhere, but not even being able to experience it first-hand.

It’s gambling. There are no certainties and there are no guarantees in it. That anonymous post is spot on .Playing top 4 hands will not guarantee unlimited profits just like playing poorly is no guarantee of going broke. Dumb idiots lucky fucks *WILL* get lucky on occasion and suckout on you but your edge will prevail on the long term.<BR/><BR/>Think of it this way, would you enjoy Poker more if all the players were experts who always folded correctly and never paid off any of your big hands? Would you be satisfied eternally picking up blinds with your aces, kings and queens? <BR/><BR/>If that was case, I’d learn to play chess or backgammon.L'artistehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17407265813693130538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410122.post-1158841807640437662006-09-21T05:30:00.000-07:002006-09-21T05:30:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.23skidoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07721278592744759373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410122.post-1158841765065773342006-09-21T05:29:00.000-07:002006-09-21T05:29:00.000-07:00I take any criticism from you as the deepest compl...I take any criticism from you as the deepest compliment. In fact, getting berated by players such as yourself and Don make it all the sweeter to suckout on you. TT vs AJh is less than 60%. Against a player like you I'll take those odds on my luckbox all day long.

I'll just give you a little tip: Real players want the type of bad calls you are complaining about. They would pay double blinds for a table full of players who will call the all in bets that you describe. They also know that those players are sometimes going to hit, and they accept that as part of the game, but more often then not (whether it seems that way or not), the best hand holds up. Would you rather have every player make perfect laydowns against you? How many big pots do you think your strong hands would win you then? Further, some of your own calls are just as embarassing as the players whom you abuse. And you use the same logic they do "I thought he was bluffing".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410122.post-1158826427499781872006-09-21T01:13:00.000-07:002006-09-21T01:13:00.000-07:00Man how come everytime I stop by to see see you yo...Man how come everytime I stop by to see see you you are being a crybaby :P<BR/><BR/>Suck it up Mary!ScottMcMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15219544072808365846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410122.post-1158822600604520262006-09-21T00:10:00.000-07:002006-09-21T00:10:00.000-07:00waffles...you complete me.waffles...you complete me.Iakaris aka I.A.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05145743425237255629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410122.post-1158814262139323342006-09-20T21:51:00.000-07:002006-09-20T21:51:00.000-07:00Best post ever.
