F***tard of the week

    It's no wonder I am trying to make a living from poker when there are idiots like this out there. I just loved this thread so much I had to cut and paste.

    ****************************************************************************
    This is a hand from the PS $73+$7 satellite into the $650 last nite. We are down to 7 players. 1-6 get the seat, and 7th gets $175. We're all guaranteed $175, but the next player out bubbles for the seat.

    Check out this gem of a play.


    PokerStars Game #2902650514: Tournament #14028597, Hold'em No Limit - Level X (400/800) - 2005/10/26 - 23:31:36 (ET)
    Table '14028597 1' Seat #4 is the button


    Seat 1: TheVyper (9726 in chips) I'm in good shape here


    Seat 2: FellKnight (6063 in chips)
    Seat 3: the-mackerel (12521 in chips)
    Seat 4: TuristOnTilt (9435 in chips)
    Seat 5: ArtieRufio31 (4065 in chips)

    Seat 8: belchingtoad (1328 in chips) This guy is seriously hurting. He only has $128 more than the price of the BB and SB, and he's taking the BB on this hand. He's ****ed.

    Seat 9: TACTIME2 (40862 in chips) Meet Mr. CockGobbler, who apparantly mistakingly believes that he's going to the Bahamas if he wins this tournament

    TheVyper: posts the ante 50
    FellKnight: posts the ante 50
    the-mackerel: posts the ante 50
    TuristOnTilt: posts the ante 50
    ArtieRufio31: posts the ante 50
    belchingtoad: posts the ante 50
    TACTIME2: posts the ante 50
    ArtieRufio31: posts small blind 400
    belchingtoad: posts big blind 800


    *** HOLE CARDS ***
    Dealt to TheVyper [9c 9h] I'm trying to determine if I should min-raise to put the shotr stack allin, or simply call. I want as many other players in the hand to knock the short stack out. If I min-raise, I'm afraid they might fold.


    TACTIME2: calls 800 He acted first, and simply limped. I'll limp so it doesnt appear that I'm trying to isolate.

    TheVyper: calls 800


    FellKnight: folds
    the-mackerel: folds
    TuristOnTilt: folds

    ArtieRufio31: calls 400 Well. we did get the SB to also help out.

    belchingtoad: raises 478 to 1278 and is all-in Perfect, now we will all call this and check it down.

    TACTIME2: calls 478
    TheVyper: calls 478
    ArtieRufio31: calls 478


    All is good, the short stack is all but gone.

    *** FLOP *** [2c 2s 5d]

    Nice, I should be ahead in this hand, so let's everyone check it down.

    ArtieRufio31: checks perfectly played

    TACTIME2: bets 8000 WTF???!!!!!!! #$$##%$%$#$#$#

    TheVyper: folds I type in a buttload of **** that guarantees my chat is revoked permanently, only to press enter and find out chat is disalbed at the final table.

    ArtieRufio31: folds This guy also pauses for 15 seconds, probably trying to get his chat revoked as well, only to find out chat is disabled.


    *** TURN *** [2c 2s 5d] [9d]


    The hands are now turned up. Cockgobbler has 7 7, and short stack has A7. At least dickweed still has the lead. Notice I would have made a set of 9's on the turn.

    *** RIVER *** [2c 2s 5d 9d] [Ah]

    And the short stack wins a massive pot, and the game continues.


    *** SHOW DOWN ***
    belchingtoad: shows [Ad 7s] (two pair, Aces and Deuces)
    TACTIME2: shows [7c 7d] (two pair, Sevens and Deuces)
    belchingtoad collected 5462 from pot
    *** SUMMARY ***
    Total pot 5462 | Rake 0
    Board [2c 2s 5d 9d Ah]
    Seat 1: TheVyper folded on the Flop
    Seat 2: FellKnight folded before Flop (didn't bet)
    Seat 3: the-mackerel folded before Flop (didn't bet)
    Seat 4: TuristOnTilt (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)
    Seat 5: ArtieRufio31 (small blind) folded on the Flop
    Seat 8: belchingtoad (big blind) showed [Ad 7s] and won (5462) with two pair, Aces and Deuces
    Seat 9: TACTIME2 showed [7c 7d] and lost with two pair, Sevens and Deuces



    Not only did this risk a seat for me (although I was still in really good shape), but caused us to have to play for about another 20 minutes in order to end the game.

    I get the feeling you dont like it when people dont check down hands! Thats situation though is absolutely ridiculous. I would give him a tiny bit of lee way if say he'd flopped quads and was guaranteed to take the pot down. Anything other than that and i'd be depressed, especially if he let a small stack multiply his chipsx4.

    Awful play really.

    Though i'd have been more annoyed about the chat being turned off, as I'd hhave been in the middle of getting a lifetime banfrom chat at that stage.

    Imagine this happening in a similar situation in real life? Could you hold back the torrent of abuse bubbling up inside you?! Seen this exact sort of play lots of times in the Fitz...on the final table of the freeroll, that is

    They are on the bubble. Everyone get's the same prize! Of course they should check it down.

    The Troll: Have you ever considered simply putting all of your thoughts into one post?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,886 ✭✭✭Marq


    All of your posts seem to come in pairs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 717 ✭✭✭charlesanto


    If you'd raised small stack's all-in the hand was yours- for minimum raise !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,124 ✭✭✭NickyOD


    TheVyper is not me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,124 ✭✭✭NickyOD


    He is another player.

    Very good. Although I think you may have created a monster.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,832 ✭✭✭careca


    you know what I mean ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,124 ✭✭✭NickyOD


    ak47 it was 8000. not 800. The guy bet 8000.... into a dry side pot.....when the main pot was about 3000 ....with Ace high and no draw......with a player already all in .......on the bubble ........in a satelite.

    Unbelievably bad play,

    Hey Nicky what did you think of Fellknight's play at this table??? He's a good player...

    EDIT: Never mind last part, just saw you're post above....

    I see my posting style is catching on.

    I usually think of something else to say after ive hit submit, then forget about the edit button.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 686 ✭✭✭The Troll


    You know what i mean? Plus i use quick reply alot as normal reply can often be quite laggy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,806 ✭✭✭Lafortezza


    No more of these double post shenanigans please. Use the edit function or even better have an attention span longer than a few seconds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,881 ✭✭✭bohsman


    What do you think of the mackerel Nicky? Was at his table during the WSOP ended up knocking him out but he was a good aggresive player

    Never mind....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 834 ✭✭✭peeko


    This is indeed a bad play. But it only comes down to inexperience.
