not hating tournaments. i hate merge and next time i play online im playing on bodog. if the odds would have broke even on merge ever id have killed that website. Countless sick beats on there and im still roughly even on Mtts the last couple months.

AK of hearts vs A9 no heart at final table all in preflop with 6 people left id have had the chip lead and been in the driver seat for over 1k and the flop comes 247 2 hearts and i lose to an offsuit 9 on the river, so instead i get like 120-160.

7 card stud bad beats are ridiculous and I could write a book on how bad they play that game on there.. One of the worst was having Kings full and losing to a 3 card runner straight flush. Countless times they call me down with hands like A7Q4 and make 2 pair or better to beat a made hand.

Ive been 2 outted and runner runner'd more than human possible and dont tell me it evens out because i can guarantee it didnt and doesnt.

When I got my money in bad i lost everytime.

When I got it in in dominating positions like AK vs AQ, etc etc i won about 50 percent lost about 35 percent and chopped 15 percent

on hands like AJ vs KQ the "60-40s" i won maybe 10 percent of those. either side im on of those esp. the KQ vs A5 when i hold KQ i never won vs a weak ace id flop pretty dead with an A79 flop repeatedly and when they held KQ, QJ, Q10, KJ vs my Ax i won that maybe 15-20 percent of the time.

Coin flips yeah my arse, I won about 20 percent of those.

Only reason I got deep in tournaments is because i pick spots well and chip up well and then when it finally comes down to an all in preflop they hit me with a bag of shite.

One day I ventured into a cash game I was all in in for a $350+ pot in a run it twice room with 68 vs 910 of spades on a 9 7 5 2 spades flop and i ran it twice and lost them both theres a 16 percent chance of that happening but it didnt stop merge.

I could write about 30 stories when id have someone less than 10 percent dead to runner runner draws and they would get there.

This has been pretty consistent over every session I've played on there for the last year and I have a good friend that sat next to me for most of it and watched it all.

When they moved from cake to merge its been a big frick you to me. So im going to move to bodog and give them a big frick you from me.

That makes my heart hurt. It truly does. I've just decided to stay away from big pots on merge. They always seem to go the wrong way for me. I'm just going to chip away at people.

Bodog is easy to make money on if I silence my inner spewtard when he starts screaming when someone sucks out on me after getting potted on 3 streets.

I really want to be playing small and mid stakes within the next three months. That's going to require a lot of work on my part. Glad to have a group of folks on one of my favorite sites that can help me out.

I don't know if players are necessarily that much better. They are definitely better, but at the micro and low stakes they are even more erratic than they were before. Playing micros two years ago before I took a year break I rarely saw a three bet. Now? I'm getting 4 bet left and right, and they are psycho 4 bets but you have to respect them. Everyone thinks they are freaking durrr now.

yeah there alot of ignorant raises and 3-bets now for sure.. I see so many people over shove the pot in tournament a limped pot they shove 100bbs or a raised pot they shove 30-40 bbs. one time i called with A10 and the idiot had A8 and i called because he limped in middle position it just looked like straight bs.

And when i do venture into the cash games they love to raise and re raise position raises just do it.

I've been watching all the back episodes of the Big Game lately. Joe Cada is Hellmuth bad at cash games. He's steady losing every time he gets on the table. Wonder if he has any of that 9 million left.

And he looks like a hobbit.
