| Posted by: hofdaddy at June 25, 2004, 6:06 am | | Topic: Here is why persistance pays off Forum: Bonus Whores | I love watching players bleed money all over the table. I have had a similiar situation with a guy at Classic. He just kept raising and raising and raising and bluffing and bluffing. The one time he had a good hand, I had a better one. I dont say a word unless spoken to. It doesnt help the bleeder any and it wont be profitable for me to tell him he sucks.

I suppose I could blow a huge hole in my laptop after I get sucked out on with my pocket rockets...
Wait a minute I could do that without a permit. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: kfellmy at June 24, 2004, 4:49 pm | | Topic: Here is why persistance pays off Forum: Bonus Whores | 99% of the time I never tell the other player that he is an idiot but I always say nice hand after the raping. Because I know that I will get him eventually. Write his/her name down and if you don't them today, try tomorrow.
Once in a great while someone will be so nasty that I have to say something. A guy on Crypto was a total idiot and would bust out 100 bucks at a time at the NL table. After he went all in 5-9 offsuit (or something equally retarded) he would just type in insult after insult. Like "you fucking idiot" or "stupid cocksucker" but yet the insulter would have the worst hand to start. I had AA and he jumped all over my 3x raise with his all in call. So I call. He had J-3 but it was suited (ohhhhh). So I win the hand and he starts in. I let him know to watch who he was calling a fucking idiot since he only had J-3. Then he really went off. He mentioned that he fed his family with poker winnings so I replied that they must be extremely skinny. then reported him to support. haven't seen ... | | Read Entire Entry |

One time I sat down at the crypto 1/2 limit table. When I sit there I usually have 50 or 100 dollars to start. This guy sat down and had 30,000 bucks. WOW. He would jack the bet everytime. He was scaring off a lot of bets, pushing people around with his big stack. I kept calling when I had good hands. I ended up with a 1K profit. He had the money but was an idiot raising station. Finally he said "shame i didn't have more money." I told him to stay there all day and i would have a lot more cause he is an idiot." He left two hands later after taking another good beating and he showed 39 offsuit. What a dumbass.
Probably some casinio player taking a break from the tables and blowing off steam.
One of the truly great things about a cardroom attached to a casino.

Of course, sometimes "reverse-psychology" makes them stay, cuz they want to beat you for bad mouthing them. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: elric at June 24, 2004, 2:12 pm | | Topic: Here is why persistance pays off Forum: Bonus Whores | I was playing on Tiger last night at a NL $25 table and this numbnuts is making every hand $10 to go... The table let him steal blinds at $0.35 a round over and over again. When we did play a hand we set him all in and he would call. I swear to god this guy must have burnt thru $500 before he slowed down. He was however very persistant!
I now believe that there really is a money tree. Risking $10 to earn $0.35 is not a wise idea. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: hofdaddy at June 24, 2004, 7:23 am | | Topic: Here is why persistance pays off Forum: Bonus Whores | Last night I am on Crypto playing my usual .5/1 NL table and I am quickly up $40. I decide to multi table and play 1/2. I go bust on that table with some nice reverse suckouts. I then lose a nice pot on the NL table and am now down $40 for the day. I then start a .5/1 NL 6 max table. I get in there and the first hand I am dealt AdTd. The flush is all diamonds. Hey what do you know I am almost even. The full ring NL table deals me KK and I win a $150 pot when a K flops with a lovely A. Back to the 6 max table and I am running that table over. I raise $5 with Q's and a Q flops and I am being bet into. I ended up making $130 with some persistance. NICE!!!
