to keep
@tikay &
@mattbates &
@essexphil in good spirits, this has been 'spellchecked -paragraphed' to the enth degree !
Well, boom boom, I could? Attempt a bit of wittisism, something like,
Made you look
Made you stare
Made you check
Your under...Armour
But I will not go down that route, with any nonsense.
Especially for
@Jac35, one little sentence, a while back, ( I got the sarcasm!) but it at least put a brief smile on my face.
misterpj is going in a ‘Well’ alright,preferably one 250 foot deep, with a perfect ‘swallow dive’ , if my Poker experience, continues like this.
Don’t think? , I have ever made a post in Poker Chat before,that is what it says, on the tin, does it not?
This will be strictly, Poker Chat, in every sense, indulge me for a moment, if you will, then, ‘we can really, get into it’
Before that, in an attempt to show, an oodlum of decorum, wishing all the Sky Poker boys and girls, (if there any girls going? are there?) safe transit to and from Vegas, and an outstanding time for the duration, I will be be ‘willing’ a brit(s) especially Sky poker players,to 'cash' 'run deep' 'final table' dare to dream, all the very very best.
Keep having a recurring dream, World Series Main, it involves
@essexphil, my heartfelt best wishes, good luck and run good, Sir.
Dream involves, final table, seat 1 Mr Rheem, seat 2 Mr Schwartz, (that’s Luke Luke Orbach), seat 3 Mr Kassouf, seat 4 Mr Schwartz (that’s Justin) seat 9,
@essexphil, who systematically stacks off each one, one by one, pure theatre, and plenty fist pumping from
@misterpj.(note to forum) fill in seats 5 6 7 8 with your choice.
Plagiarised, the Hypnotist joke (brilliant by the way) to include, a ‘camp French compare /hypnotist’ somewhat petite, in flip flops, and specially selected from the ‘sporting audience’ are, two heavyweight boxers, two heavyweight weightlifters, two rugby prop forwards, etc.,by the way, the hypnotist uses a ‘special’ rugby ball sized, shaped, precious natural crystal, very Spikey!, something for you to ‘work on,Phil at 30,000 feet’,hope you understand,the joke,could be Sensational,if not P.C !
Now all the above, can be put to one side, and lets clear a few things up,
@mistepj, has never ever sent, one single p.m. ever, or for that matter, received a p.m., sharkscope, on occasions, is not a true reflection, left mine as it is, only nugget, is 8000 plus MTTs, even that does not tell the entire accurate picture, as before I lived abroad (non E.U) I had a previous Sky poker account, simple as that.And Matt, wether good experience ? bad experience, I have played Poker almost daily for 35 years.
Question for the quarter of a million pound man, for factual accuracy £261,000 the last time I looked, Matt, are there no exceptions, in your mind, to your oft stated,’ it is only inexperienced and bad players quote’ I am not being facetious, and, I give you ‘carte blanch’ as the best player on this site, to completely shred, my play, the hands, I will be posting. I will accept, what you say, with good grace, (a) if you do take a look, maybe you won’t, (b) base any response, on the hands, and play, posted in this thread alone, I think that’s reasonable, and ,anyone else, is welcome to ‘chime-in’ including clock123, (Tony) I am all heart really !, hoping you get enough ‘extra commission’ for a decent breakfast ‘nosh up’ om
@mistepj, in Vegas.
Further couple of boils to ‘lance’, this is specifically, and only, in relation to MTT;s, no cash, no dym’s,no freerolls,all are from MTTs with over an average buy in of £5.50.And,this is from a player, who ducked ‘his head down’, started May with a renewed determination, to play, and put in, relentless hours, playing, patient,balanced,well judged,determind t.a.g Poker, it is akin to Poker Nightmare, June only two days old, and a double nightmare already, words are easy to write, aren’t they ?,then the counter to that, is ‘provide proof’ for analysis, which will be done, concisely and coherwrently.And this important point, zero multi tabling, why ? personal preference, full total concentration, blink in an MTT and miss a dynamic change,etc,even the best player on this site (Matt) stated that himself.
And, Christmas, 2018-2019, ( five months ago) this forums very own,
@doylebrun and tikay, discussing, if you are relentlessly, getting it in, calling it off, as massive favorite,you are the better poker player, and your time will come, well it better hurry up, (pun attempt) the clock is ticking !
It will take me, a few hours, to get this together, but, as ‘a flavour’ of what is coming, I will give you one hand, from yesterday, which, as you will read, was pretty much replicated, on the hour, every hour,relentlessy,all day, Sunday June 2nd,all day Saturday June 1st,and every day in May !
I hope you, dear forum, will believe this, as a player, concentrating on MTT’s, one at a time, you are acutely more aware, of defining moments, believe it, or then do not believe, I have not got a clue, I cannot even conceive, what it is, what it feels like, to either, call it off, or get it in, in a massive tournament defining pot,and,luck out, suck out, please please do not, troll out, that hairy old chestnut,’ you forget those hands’ Not a chance, against me, (as I will prove) it is relentless, for me ? Been waiting a very very long time.
I might, have done the ‘ self deprecating forum idiot bit’ tongue in cheek, in another area of the forum !, but, know way, would I ‘dare’ post in Poker chat, unless I was 100% serious,I am.
I will post (now) one hand, only to prove,I am not joking,then I will post maybe twenty five more hands,from Sunday,Saturday, and a select few from the month of May,because, I cannot believe,from the limited amount of Mtts I play, (relatively) any one else, gets ‘hit by varience,downswing,run bad’ like I do.
Hand being posted,Sunday June 2nd 12.42 p.m 42,000 k pot,only turn river runner runner can get ‘me beat’ as 93% jolly !
Love Paul !

Not only will I get over it I will learn from it and increase my earning potential in future sessions.
Variance is wild and mentally draining... I literally had to enforce a break on myself, but if you think it is any different to anyone else who plays at the same level then you are wrong.
The best players will have slightly less variance because ... well they are better.... but the gap is way less than anyone would think
there was zero,zero sarcasim,in my post, NONE, I think you are the best player, on this site,obviously , you cant say that,and certainly,modesty forbids, how about 'facts', anyone who disagrees, with that,I would just reference, to sharkscope.
for clarification,and I am 'not going to get, into it', or bite, or spoil this Poker Chat
Am I reading that correctly ? , cant be ?
I am specifically,and only, referencing Mtts,nothing else,and from a player, who plays, one Mtt at a time, ' the varience,get over it,' reference ? have you seen me post anywhere ? for six weeks ? ten hours a day,almost every day.
Sorry, that is just one, example, of a massive pot,having called two all ins, in front, with the 93% goods, and you really want me to believe, like for like, you could post a hundred hands, (like for like hands) ? these are all MTT tourny's, all above average buy in £5.50, sorry, we will have to agree to disagree.
write an articulate piece about Poker,but don't put up ' proof' equals damned,put up proof,and everyone else,I assume,will slaughter me.
Every single hand,is either,got in, massive,called off massive, favorite, there was me thinking,as Tikay says, you want to be getting it in,as 60% good,all day every day, and twice on Sundays,but not, according to, itsover4u, because,everyone,runs this bad,all day long,and twice on Sundays !
11.54 Sunday June 2nd
call off the all in, 83%,80%,90% to the river,
all separate Mtt's, for reference.
So this one,is a flip ?, but yet another, all in, called off, by me,best starting hand, my QQ and 'only 54%' good, and exit (again)
call the all in, with my A9 suited,why ? ,notes on player,me naturally, huge favorite,rivered at 70%.
top pair, JJ top kicker K, player betting at me with 'fresh' 86% fav pre and post, just a bit more turn river runner !
I suppose, flopped flushes, are as regular, well, as ?
Every single hand,is either,got in, massive,called off massive, favorite,
Every single hand? Bet it's not.
The 'jist' of this, is what I consider,one player ,playing very good Poker,over a sustained period,and to all the forum,consider the rest I post, as an overall,appraisal, please.
From this point, I just want to post the hands,and then over to ? Matt, or forum.
you might lose that bet Tony ?
91% fav,huge pot, river ?
or to be really accurate, as I am 'not losing a bet with tikay'
I know it was a flopped straight,I know its a 12,000 k pot,I know I am 75% good
Played 3 games so far this afternoon and suffered these 2 knockouts. This is the game. You will drive yourself mad if you can't learn to accept this. In the games we both play these beats are part and parcel of the game and that is what makes them GOOD GAMES.
I think a big issue is you make some pretty bad errors and very good experienced guys like @FeelGroggy gave you advice but you didn't seem to believe you made glaring errors in the hand. In terms of my comment, I think the issue is (and lots are guilty of this) you believe yourself to be a lot better player than you probably are.
If you never suck out then you are probably playing too passively and not bluffing enough.
In the KK hand you posted, you have done amazing to get someone to shove like they did however your raise sizing is extremely questionable. Just because someone played a hand badly doesn't mean we shouldn't look at whether we can play the hand any better. Also you post the % throughout the hand but once we are all in I don't see the relevance of the %. The % that matters is when we are all in.
With the QQ hand when you 19x pre what sort of hands do you expect to call you/go all in against you?
With the A9 what are you trying to achieve with your raise size?
I don't have time to look at any of the other hands now but the fact you suggest the hands show you are playing very good poker is very dubious. Also just showing certain hands doesn't show the full story or any other hands you may have played well or badly.
You're looking at things the wrong way.
thankyou, sat at the tables with you,the point I am trying to make,is, Poker skill based ?, skill has to out, in the end ?, no one believes me, I do not know the concept, ( in a massive spot,key tournament moment,massive spot,when I get it in call it off, monster bad, and suck out, dish out a beat,to another player, against me,it is relentless.
That will get mocked, it is the truth.I try to be sanguine ! it is very tough.
Just to prove, ' run bad' And I mean, appalling bad, take a look at this ?
£5.50 BH,
8000 MTT's, never folding that, in a million years,I believe, it is the locked up, stone called whotsits ? and never before,never since, has the entire system,gone into, what I can only describe, as a ten second freeze, fact,I cannot tell you, how bad that felt.
