Ur obviously getting over sensitive about this - If you know u play 'correct' poker all the time then Ive no right to even discuss this with you, never mind try to advise you - Maybe I shud be taking lessons from and advice from you.
With 6 - 4 hes definately gonna be live unless u have 44 or 66 - if the blinds where that big, i wudnt be surprised if he was actually getting the price to call, and with a big stack, and the chance to eliminate an oppo, it doesnt seem too bad.

xFALLENx - yu class yourself as a decent player. I also like to think I'm a decent player. I looked up your stats on Sharkscope and you have played 231 tourneys with an average ROI of -24%, profit of -$253 and an ability rating of 50 out of 100. That is not dissimilar to me (52 rating) and it is very average, barely decent so we are kidding ourselves. Your current form is classed as "TILT", by the way. DOHHHHHHH, on the other hand, has an average ROI of 67%, profit of $514 and an abiity rating of 75 over 116 tourneys. I reckon bith you and I would learn a lot from DOHHHHHHH but, just so he doesn't get too cocky, go and take a look at Sharksbite's performance if you want to be seriously impressed. A profit of $12,148 from 784 tourneys and an abiity rating of 82 isn't too shabby! This has nothing to do with good or bad luck.

In Response to Re: STANDARD OF PLAY GONE UP....YEAH RIGHT!!!! : Hi Debs It is a fickle world and people like nothing more than having a good moan! lol How long?? That's a good question! If you get sick of all the bad beats and outdraws then maybe poker isn't the game for you. They're always gonna happen and you can't do much about it i'm afraid! But if you're not enjoying it then there isn't much point in playing, it's supposed to be entertainment after all! I don't mind people having a moan and xFALLENx I completely see where you're coming from which is why I relpied. I had two months where everytime I played it seemed I was at the wrong end of everything! I got through it but it does get you down. Hopefully you'll stay with it though because it really is a great game even with the muppets! Posted by DiggerMan
HI DIGGERMAN I THINK YOU HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD MY POST.IN NO WAY AND AT NO TIME WAS I HAVING A POP AT YOU.I AINT EVEN MOANING MYSELF MERELY SAYING I CAN SEE XFALLENXS POINT OF VIEW.AND MY COMMENT OF THE PEOPLE SLAGGIN OFF THE MOANERS AND THEN SHORTLY MOANING THEMSELVES IS INDEED SEEN IN RECENT POSTS.NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF YOUR COMMENTS AT ALL THOUGH.ALL THE BEST DEBS XX

Figures don't lie, well posted Seagull, great site as well I'm not as rubbish as I thought lol I've won 7 DYM on the trot, didn't even realise YIPEE
I have to admit, I want them to call for ever and a day, if I get outdrawn, I make a note on the player, type nh laugh and move on, the next time I meet em I am ready set the trap and BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM, unfortunately poker is a game of outdraws, bad beats (yes there does seem to be a lot online, but there are a lot more hand played) and great hands, the best hands do win in the longrun, keep focusing on that, (I never said it was easy ) Keep that chin up so we can see that gorgeous face
agree with what your saying fallen seem have couple days were u beat them then 3 weeks were they beating every time with there junk and chasing there draws sick of hearing that saying u want them to call allday long with them hands
In Response to Re: STANDARD OF PLAY GONE UP....YEAH RIGHT!!!! : thats all well and good but dont get me wrong here but your playing with some of the best players on that tourny and your chances of cashing never mind winning are dramatically reduced so you really have to be on top of your game and what if merenovice,paperon or phil12uk suckout on you would it be the same knowing a good player has given you a bad beat...cant believe this thread hasnt been moved Posted by stokefc
LOL I ACTUALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE ON ABOUT AND I JUST SHOWED THIS TO DAV AND HE IS SCRATCHING HIS HEAD.ALL I SAID WAS REALLY TO PROMOTE PROB ONE OF THE BEST POKER FORMATS SKY HAVE TO OFFER AND YOU WANT THIS POST REMOVED?????LOL LOL LOL

Hi Saegull
The publishing of Sharkscope on here is frowned upon somewhat, because it does not give the whole information on any player, I have seen both FALLEN and DOHHHHHH play, they are by no means bad players, in fact DOHHHHH has been close to being picked for the Total Player, you cannot be a bad player to be shortlisted for that.

Hi FALLEN
Of course it does, we are human after all, beleive it or not, only about a month ago I went through 3 weeks of no hands, no flops, and being outdrawn, then look what happened the Posters freeroll twice in 2 weeks, cashing in a couple of other tournies, it can and will change, allthough I cant say when, (If I could I would be a billionaire
My tourny stats are abit misleading Im not a big tourny player. 90% of the tournys I play Im aiming straight away from hand 1 to make the final table.Not interested in cashing, I ignore bubbles and things like this.
If you deal me 22 first hand with blinds at 10/20, move all in, turn ur cards over and show me ace king, ill call if im last to act. I dnt mind losing the first hand of the tourny. Doubling first hand every other tourny (50/50 race) gives me a much better chance of winning big without investing alot of time.
If the buy in is bigger and the minor prize money is worth winning, ill play more 'standard' poker - whilst remaining aggressive obviously - I just wudnt be as rash.
This maybe explains my understanding of the fella calling with 6-4 off - hes obviously trying to maximise his chances of WINNING the tourny, by targetting shorties to build his stack, without risking a large percentage of his stack.
The stats quoted are kinda irrelevant tho - I didnt even no em myself, interesting to read tho, lol cheerz.
