Idiots on APAT Poker site
« on: February 19, 2013, 10:23:07 AM »
Couldn"t sleep last night so have been on APAT Poker since early doors. There are some right dickheads on there at the moment. Very poor level of intelligence in chat. Every hand they lose is met with "donk" "luckbox" "f u shi t donk"
kneedeepe has to make a comment about every hand he goes to showdown, win or lose. He"s not the only one but just one name I could recall. It is funny that the ones who appear to be the luckiest players are the ones who moan the most..

>:(

I feel better now after my mid morning rant....

Just remember Bill, we"re on a network, so you are going to get players from all over.

If these comments were based on you playing the exclusive APAT tables, I"d be worried.   ;)


Unless I am playing an APAT game, I tend to have the chatbox turned off on any sites I play on.  I"m just not interested in what these people have to say.

The more people we have on the network like this the better IMO.

Just ignore the comments (or use them to your advantage) and take their money.

You aren"t playing properly if you don"t get abuse from time to time
Looking forward to making my first day 2

I never close the chat box - it gives good clues to the level of donkness of some players, although when they"re bad enough to be chat box donks, their donkness on the table is often self evident.

I think you may have out-chat-box-donk-levelled yourself with that post  ;D

I call the chat box donks the richter scale of poker skills improvement & didn"t think I was improving at all until I got some.

Bill"s post reminded me, I was both tilted and amused in equal measure by some of the play on the tables last night in the 1k GTD "deepstack" (I also played in the baker"s dozen and was on Ger"s table so amusement was guaranteed there).

I"ll share with you the hand that crippled me and effectively knocked me out in the form of a few questions:

You have 34k at 2k/4k in MP1 and are dealt  Kc 6c

Do you

a) fold
b) shove
c) make a standard 2.5x raise leaving 6.5bb behind

Having opted for c (obv), you witness your hugely talented and handsome oponent click it back to 25k.

Do you

a) fold  - this would only leave 6.5bb but maybe a shove can get through in one of the next couple of hands, or maybe even double up)

b) shove - you have almost no fold equity which the aforementioned, handsome opponent clearly knows and therefore his click back is super strong; but hey you could have live cards

c) flat call leaving 2.25bb behind

Obviously again we go for option c, the flop brings 2 clubs so we ship it in, our opponent (did we mention he was handsome) snaps with  A s Ah and the turn duly obliges with a club!!

TY GG & Goodnight

I love it when people raise out of a 9BB stack

How did it take to the flop to get it all in though? And how many chips does our handsome opponent have?

before the hand, after the hand or now?

before the hand = more than after the hand

after the hand = less than before the hand

now = none

Hope that clears things up Dad Dave  ;)

Stop raising  Kc 6c out of a 9bb stack then
