the all in chasers which failed to earn their chaser

sometimes donkeys just don't give enough thought into the risks when they donk bet
the K might be understandable but the straight draw caller is so weird

the funniest one was this the only thing annoying was it got the villian i think might have held a premium pair to fold putting the donkey on 3 tens

So are you posting these as a brag or just so you can call people donkeys?
I am not having a go I just really don't understand half the sentences you have written so I don't get the joke. Might just be me.

Nice hands though.

mewillows

yeah i dont get it either.

Nice hands but it just seems like your ridiculing other peoples play.  Pretty sure you dont play perfect all the time otherwise you wouldnt be at 4NL. MBN getting quads though and someone shoving on you.

craigcu12

basically this post is just making a apoint to the bad beats that get post from people who are annoyed when they loose a good hand that the strang hand will win too.

as for my sentancing unlike maths which i have an Alevel i don't have a GCSE in english so the sentances will always be poor
that sentance on the quad well it was meant in a way where his shove will only mean calls from a person holding a 10 but to his suprise i hold two 10's so his hope for a flush is gone and the only down side is the other guy folds when he put the donk bet as 3 tens but had he just called i might have gained more from the guy who folded.

You should see bountyhunter tourneys. As soon as a bounty is on the line most people forget about the prizes for placing, and stick it in with any two cards. Some cracking funny hands.

Why am I not on... er... Craig's... List? 

Thank You and Goodnight. (Applause)

Now my copy and pasting of pictures clearly isn't up to scratch but if you have a look you'll still get the gist. (I'll also explain/moan in my own words).

It's to qualify for the 1st UKOPS mian event tonight. I'm on 8387 chips and you can see and as a rule of thumb I need to get to around 10000 to qualify but currently 6th out of 17 with the top 10 qualifying.

I'm the BB 600 chips, the button calls as does the SB and I check with 5 4. the flop comes, 2 4 4 and I'm pretty **** happy. 2 things are going through my mind, I don't need a big win as I'm pretty near the finish line however I've got trips so I'm betting but I can't slow play as 2 daimonds on the board, I don't need the risk I'll shut this down early. SB checks, I go all in thinking a drawing hand won't bother but high cards or a pocker pair may be tempted.

The button folds and the SB takes a while. I think he's thinking whereas he thinks he's making me sweat as he's got a 4 in his hand. He turns over 4 3.  With my 5 being such a low kicker and a 2 being on the table already it looks like a spilt pot which is disappointing but still a win. A 3 on the river means he gets a full house and I'm out on a qualifying tournament that I made the effort to "play well" once I had some chips under my belt.

I enjoy playing and learning and I'm happy (sometimes to the dismay of others) to play loose and try different things. This was one occassion however where for once I didn't feel like I could blame myself or learn anything from it...boohoo
