Why online poker is incredibly boring!
Other then the occasional tournament with fellow bloggers, I’m officially burnt out from playing poker. I’ve come to realize that it’s just a dull game. The only thing that makes it exciting is the gamble when money’s involved. And when you get used to the stakes you’re playing it gets boring boring again. This is [...]
I fought the power
I fought the power in todays DADI tournament (a tournament for poker bloggers who love the hammer), but the power was to strong for me. I was able to ride my short stack all the way into 9th place, which was exciting, but only the top 5 get paid.
Here’s the hand I went out [...]
Retarded “no blind increases” heads-up sng
While playing heads up sit and go’s I accidentally joined one of pokerstars new ‘no blind increases’ versions. What a mistake that was. They basically give you 1500 chips each, set the blinds at 15/30 and force you to play until someone loses their stack.
I think this is pokerstars response to everyone asking for heads [...]
Bayou Poker Crooks
[edit]I made this post a few days ago but took it down. I figured it wasn’t a good idea to have the first thing that they see on my site be, “Bayou Poker Crooks”, when deciding if they should pay me.
Well I finally got the payment owed to me from April 27th to September 1st. [...]
Couldn’t get away from this hand
I know I said I wouldn’t post any more bad beat hand histories but here’s one that doesn’t happen every day. This hand was limped preflop, checked on the turn, and then played out on the river. bet, raise, reraise, reraise. I was just trying to squeeze as many chips as possible.
I’m thinking - ‘He [...]
lol
I swear I won’t post any more bad beat hand histories after this thread.

Not a good session
Everyone’s out to get me!! Everything that could have gone wrong went wrong. Here’s how I lost 6 turbo sit&go’s in a row:
I pushed 33 all in preflop against a limper, and he calls with A7: turn is a 7. 5th.
my 77 vs 44 vs AQ preflop: obviously 44 won. I pushed there also. [...]
Why Pacific Poker players are so bad
Pacific Poker is known to have the softest games online. But why don’t better players join this poker room and take advantage of this? Well they do, but everything about pacific poker can turn a sane player crazy. Good players join to take advantage of the awful poker and then end up going on tilt [...]
Numereo 2
Well I think I would like to vent on here for a little bit and tell you about a couple hands over the past couple of days which I have a hard time telling myself that “hey its just poker”. Ever been laying down at 4 in the AM seeing cards floating in front [...]
A day in the life of…
So today was another example of how extreme the swings have been getting lately. I start off today losing 1100 dollars right off the bat online. Five hundred of it was at 5/10 and the other six was at 15/30. I ended up taking a nap that lasted like 8 hours. [...]
