No mas!

Postby Cactus Jack » Thu Aug 11, 2005 9:55 am

I'm done playing SNGs. Weak/tight, idiots who have not a clue.

AK in MP. Raised 3x. Button goes all in. BB calls. I call for another couple hundred.

Nothing on the flop. Check flop, check turn. BB bets $200 on the river. I fold.

BB turns up AJ.
Button turns over AK and takes the pot.

Now, you gotta figure if you're playing with this kind of moron, you have very little chance of playing good poker and winning anything. He calls two raises and then bets into a board in which he has NO pair???

I just ain't no fun.

well, playing against donks can be frustrating, but...

1) these two players don't seem particularly weak-tight.

2) a pre-flop fold would have solved all of your problems. let them push when you have AA or KK.

3) the other AK probably made a good play on the river after being checked down on the flop and turn. an earlier bluff by you may have given you the pot.

easier said than done... i'm just sayin'.


better luck next time. :D

Uh, the other AK was the short stack on the button. The idiot was the BB with AT, who called a 3X raise and all-in. I'm the big stack who called the all-in.

I should have folded AK instead of calling another 200 TC against two players, one who had no better chance and one who was completely brain dead? Sorry, guy, but from what I've been seeing, that's the play everybody is making. And when everybody is that weak, it's all a race.

Oh, wait, the AJ bet the river. I folded. Saw the whole pot going over to the exact same hand I folded.

Yeah, right.
