Serious question

[Nod]

OMG! Have you played their freerolls? n00bs everywhere. They go all-in with 7-2 on the first hand. This one time I had my pocket aces cracked by 2-3 off-suit just when the tournement was finally winding down. It started with 10,000 people and was down to like 250. I raised pre-flop all in under the gun to try and push out the weaker hands and this guy calls from two places behind the button. He was the only one that called. I flip over aces and he show's his 2-3 and I'm like "This is over." Flop comes 2-q-3. No help on the turn or river. Then he starts GLOATING. Like I'M the idiot for pushing all in with pocket aces and it wasn't luck at all that he hit two pair on the flop. Sure I only had two outs on the turn or river but he was way behind before the flop hit. I hate the nubs that play internet poker. I can't wait to get back to Blackhawk. They had some really nice poker rooms there. Live poker is way better. Especially since there's no way a computer could ever generate the true randomness that you get at a poker table. Since a computer can't actually generate a truely random number.

It's funny that you call it luck that he hit, yet if he never did we wouldn't exist. Random chance = Life!

God =/= Creation Luck = / = Real

I just like telling bad beat stories. I've got a ton of good ones since I started playing online.

[mrpeanut]

I know. Years of poker make you numb to bad beats stories.

Point being, RANDOM CHANCE!

I started playing play money on PokerStars again. Now I remember why I quit doing that. There are maybe 10-20 people out of thousands that play in that section that are real poker players. G-d, I gotta get another real money account somehow.

My favorite gambling game is still Black jack 

[Nod]

I prefer poker. It's a lot more psychological and, I think, requires more thinking than blackjack. Sure you can count cards in blackjack but in poker you have to know your outs, percentages of outs hitting, odds that the other player has a better hand than yours, whether you can bluff the player off that hand. I'm not belittling blackjack. I just think poker is more strategy and thus better.

[mrpeanut]

You can be really fucking good at poker, like never lose and just sit there raping people's ears, and the casino will never tell you to stop.

Start winning really big at blackjack (aka count cards) and you in a back room with "bosco". Guess what bosco likes to do?

[Nod]

That is true. You can make more money playing No-Limit Hold'em than you can blackjack in most cases. Last time I went to the casino I paid $60 to get into a tournement and walked away with $400.

[mrpeanut]

I once paid a hobo 400 dollars to dance.

Truth.

[Nod]

Flashdance or Footloose style?

[Nod]

I'm completely disgusted and yet I can't look away. It's almost like that time we had the donkey show at Mooby's.
