It is official - you are sick.

No, it's just that people love folding when you give them a chance. It would be silly not to profit from that...

full tilt poker $1/$2 No Limit Hold'em - 8 players

Another good reason for me to avoid cash games - it takes guts I don't have.

True. but where's the fun, then?

 

[eNTy]

[switch0723]

Well it's not just that - I just can't handle losing buy-ins in cash games. I am rolled (but not skilled!) to play 100NL - so I have tried to play at 25NL a few times. If I lose a buy-in it sucks so bad - yet I can play a $22 tournament and lose and it is not a big deal to me. But anything lower than 25NL just bores the hell out of me.

And you guys all talk in a language I just don't understand lol. Guess I better stick to my tournaments and hope for a big win someday.

 

[eNTy]

if u are over rolled for the games u play theres nothing with withdrawing a little and enjoying the free monies while u work on improving ur game to beat the higher games
but i dont know what tournament buyins u play so a big roll might not be too bad since tournaments are essentially a big downswing till you hit it big

[Debi]

Nahh.. I need to leave it all in there so I can play whatever tournaments I ever want to play. I have lots of room for some swingy swingy lol. It's more fun to leave my poker money alone and enjoy Joe's money for other things.

(He never reads this thread)

 

[eNTy]

i'll have to remember that

It doesn't really work that well for men.

I checked you out on poker table ratings and you do just fine in cash games sister.

 

[Debi]

That's cause I quit at the first smell of lost money lolololol.

Okay well I tried ring games again for an hour. I only played 2 tables and got stacked on one of them. My 222 beat by 444 and my AA beat by 333 - same guy lol.

I quit again.

I could have played a nice fun $24 tournament instead.

***oh edit hehe. I just pretended I was Belgo on the other table and stacked a guy who had AA. Got most of my money back.

But I still quit.

The smell of brand new cash from the bank is amazing.

I like to fanwhip a stack in front of my nose to get the full effect :top:

[Dwilius]
