    If that tilts him then maybe he shouldn't be playing 4NL... I dread to think what he'd do when he raises big with AA gets called by K5 and the flop comes 25K... or having his AK actually  lose against KK.

    Yeah I saw his AK binking against KK, and I've never seen someone get so many AAs in such a short space of time lol.

    Thumbs up on the great profile pic by the way Doh, keep meaning to say it but forget. Gotta love the brentmeister.

      This is a classic example of cash game play. You are asking about the flop and turn questions when the whole hand revolved around a bad decision preflop.

      Limping/making up is never a good plan because you are reliant upon getting lucky and someone else getting almost as lucky as you in order to pay you off.

      So basically raise or fold preflop instead of limping, because you are playing out of position against totally random cards and you can never truly know where you are.With coming in with a raise you can narrow the field and have a better idea of where you are in the hand. Hands like KT and T8 might fold to a preflop raise but will never fold to a limp so you are in effect creating all your own problems well before you get asked the question.Always be the one asking and try not to be the one answering.

    I agree with you, I was just giving you the answer I got when I asked him the same question. I think he is just using it as an excuse to end the seassion coz he cudnt be bothered, theres no way that a cooler like this should tilt you enough to have to quit... especially as only 10 mins earlier he got AK in v KK and binked to win 75xbbs.....It's not like he was running bad. The whole session lasted only 20 minutes 2 tabling. Surely it's not humanly possible to tilt that easily? Just xcuses imo, but he insists it's not....

    Wow that's like 50 hands ? lol

    Being serious though when my roll was small I 2-tabled as well but for at least 2 hours a pop, you've barely started foreplay in 20 minutes.

    On the bad beats this was one I had yesterday stung a bit but I know I print money in this spot longterm so it didn't have hardly any effect on my play, if anything I wanted to play more against them.

    Just as an example a hand from NL10 I had last night. In this situation I'm only a slight fave but it is just about +EV lol, but saying that people can EASILY have AA/KK/QQ etc here.
