    There's a certain quality to things that you know are there
    but its very difficult to measure it
    You probably find some of the most satisfying moments in your life
    are not moments that you could measure by how much it costs or how much expense

    This shit made me cry lol. I got into it late 2004. I’ve been in Las Vegas for 5 years now and kinda turned my back on why I came out here. And while I don’t wanna be the best at the game, I do wanna be a world champion one day. I got into it for the sustainability, the extra source of income it brought into my life and the therapy it can bring into ones life. Like teaching you discipline in the form of patience, observance, maintaining mental maturity. Last summer was difficult. My wsop BR went to bad habits, stopped coaching, therapy and training. But I had money. A recipe for disaster at times. Lol. You can tell by my comment I’m lonely in this fact that I want to speak out about what this shit means to me..

You really think all 3 are going to find a fold with All that dead money out there? 99% of times you're getting a call. And 99.9% of the times you're in for a flip. Really bad situation.

      ​@@royston7579 many sites have trouble dealing with obvious bots. How are they going to prove someone is cheating when colluding players use different computers and different internet providers? Lets say me and you are friends. You live in New Jersey and I live in Nevada. We join same room some time apart and call each other on phone, facetime or whatever app. As we get dealt in we can see each others cards. Just 2 extra cards is 4% of the deck. Now imagine 3-4-5 colluding players. One can gain a huge edge being able to eliminate villains possible hands. If colluding players rotate when playing no data could prove anything. Guess you haven't heard about poker farms in third world countries where dozens of players live in same place and pool resources and split winnings. Bigger cash games cheating is a given. But even in tourneys players chip dump to each other and once students get deep in tourneys they have their pro teachers take over to go for big $. I play online tourneys and do pretty good. You'd never catch me on a cash table though. Unless you play heads up you asking for it. I personally know a poker player who went to a spot in Mexico to do this and heard of numerous places like it in Asia. Big reason many legit poker pros don't play cash games online.

    66 v AQ was the VERY BEST CASE. It's the definition of a poor play. Use some shal. The long delaying big blind, I'd have put him on 7s or 8s, potentially and the button on AK, depending on %. If there's a 1/8th chance each player has 7s or better, let's call that 12.5% each (probably a modest estimate), more than 1 of 3. So (.20*37 +. 53*63). That gives you around 35% rounding, with little fold equity vs 3 players. He knew it was a bad play but wanted the feeling of potentially stacking up big. The k9 shove seems to have been admittedly pure emotion. That's a huge part of tourneys like that, boredom creates the feeling that you should do something, you say I've been card dead so k9 looks great and foolishly shove.

    • @McRuffin
      @McRuffin 8 місяців тому

      Yeah shoving for 35bbs with 66 is crazy to me. He must have gotten impatient. That’s a good size stack to wait for better spots. I think in that situation I’d only shove TT+ AQ+. Even then, there’s no need to shove a stack that big. If it were a cash game TT+AQ+ is an easy shove with 35bbs . But deep in a tournament, not so much.

      Update, I’ve slowly grinded it up in the micros. I started in micro sngs and grinded up through 3 stakes with a 20% ROI over 650 games. Took that money out and switched to cash. And it’s going well. The dream is in the early stages. I hope to play full time in the next couple years.

    What's the dude's name that said he's from Yonkers NY? I'm born and raised and never knew of any real known poker players from here.
