Can't this bloomin' table break already? One player is a right moaning minnie, I outdrew him twice and he was at it, site was rigged etc. then when he outdrew me - nothing.
Not very often I don't enjoy a game of poker, this one was one of those times.
You know what's funny? People are really pretty dim. I've been playing virtually every hand by open shoving... and people are giving me abuse for it. Would you not want someone like that at your table? Posted by BorinLoner

I never answered the question by BUFC, later bumped by glenelg, about ther Micro Sats. I was busy last night, & in truth did not know the answer, either.
Has this been resolved, or is the question still valid?

This, to me, is a fascinating Post.
On my "regular" Tables, there are 2 or 3 guys who, literally, never stop moaning & chuntering. Every hand they lose "bla bla bla", when they win, nothing. They bust out, "I'm sick of Sky".
I always wonder if they actually enjoy their poker. Would you or I play the game if it took us like that? I doubt it. I genuinely look forward to a poker session, always have. The day I don't, I'll be gone, lots of stuff on the Bucket List still need ticking.

Slight hijack here:
I reckon at least part of the reason that this kind of thing happens is that there are many players who feel poker is an easy way to a quick buck. They have heard a lot of stories about others rising up through the ranks from nothing and winning big, and they think it could - and should - happen to them. They become frustrated when their dream is derailed and take it out on everyone present.
Of course, most of us know that poker is rarely easy money, and even the greatest players - those who obviously make their living playing - never take it lightly, because the riches can disappear far more quickly than they arrived.

Why do I save my insane run-good for a freeroll? It'll probably net me a micro-sat seat.
EDIT: Finally bust in 196th.

Now't odd as us folk, eh?
