AAAAHHH!!!! Im gonna burst a blood vessel

[LongshanksED]

hit a dip a but today with major suckouts and im about to throw this ******* laptop out the window

5 man SnG - 1st level of 30BB 15 SB

im UTG with KK

Raise it to 150, button calls, BB calls


flop 3,2,2

happy to see that so i bet the pot of 450, happy to take it there and then and give me a wee cushion for the next few levels

button folds and BB goes all in

i dont think he/she has aces as they probably would raised pre flop after the button called the initial raise so im happy to call

turns over 3 ace - happy with that until ace on the turn ruins me

now

bad beat and all - i can take but she then starts to throw me abuse in the chat box calling me a sucker, fish, donkey and all

i shouldnt let it get to me but i was ready to hunt them down and cause serious pain to them for the abuse i was recieving (lodged a complaint with the administrators (sp) on the virgin website)



then i looked them up on sharkscope and guess what? negative $6000 profit and also labeled as a fish on the their rankings


anyone want to look he/she up the nickname is rosy79 on virgin

They are the players you want at the table.  Don"t chase them away!

[lukybugur]

Agreed! You got them in good and identified a fish - get back to the tables and take him/her for all he/she has.

[LongshanksED]

only problem is - being a sit n go

im out

not in the money and probably never see them for a long time

if it was a cash game, id be right back at her

but knocked out - 1st level like that is hard - to be labeled the "fish" is what rips my knitting


gonna be looking out for them though next time i log on though


and guess what - she was knocked out on the bubble and hurled abuse at the player that eliminated them calling them a fish too as how could they call her all in on the flop with a low pair


funny

[bigredders]

bad things seem to happen everytime u get kk!

chin up!

You need to take a bit more emotion out of your game.
If there were no bad beats and poor play, everyone would break even. (or lose to the rake)

Stop trying to feel so victimised and keep making good decisions

[LongshanksED]

i do need to take the emotion out

your right

i dont mind losing when im worse off - eg 3BB left and i shove JQ and lose to pocket 9"s - thats the way it is

its being labeled the loser and fish when in fact the proper play should never have called with ACE 3 in the 1st place

hellmuth stylee rant over

[Swinebag]

playing perfect poker means you will have worse players calling with worse hands and sucking out. (I should know, its my speciality ).

What makes it worse is that there will be much fewer occasions where you get outplayed and get lucky and therefore, you feel an unlucky player.

Just keep playing within your bankroll and the losses, no matter how they come about, will never hurt that much.

I love being called a fish.  I get it all the time.  Probably because I am though.

Ditto- I get called lucky a lot which I take as a compliment (I probably am tho)

which is worse, being called a fish or donkey?

[Swinebag]

neither... both apply!!

[WYoung83]

what about a "POW". thats what i call them in the cash games....
(Got it from Phill Lack on high stakes/ it means pay off wizards)

Their the ones who you want on the cash games because they call massive value bets on the river when you have the nuts and they have just 1 pair.....

On the down side you cant bluff them idiots.

which is worse, being called a fish or donkey?

i think both are rather complimentary , although when the heartless bullies call you an CLUELESS IDIOT or f**KING TW*T FACE i tend to find that rather hurtful lol lol lol
