re: Is this the greatest fold in Texas Hold’em history?

That's why I put quotations around "cheating".

They are full of shite and it's their own damn fault he won.

Unfortunately it's a lot easier for a casino to buy a win in court than it is for an individual.

Yep. The golden days of online poker for sure. Those times were legit awesome. Since then I've had to put thousands of hours into live cash games. It was amazing making the switch to live poker though. The live players were just so bad(well worse than the online guys) at every level...it's been a pretty easy grind since then. Just a lot more time consuming.

you play in the BR game with the infamous Jamar?

a lot of the PLO guys from here love to talk about going out there and butt fricking the room

B/c live play is considerably easier. Without a doubt. I remember when I first switched over. I would sit in 1-3 nl(occasional 2-5) games and just be flabbergasted at how technically bad these live cash regs were.

I played 4 to 8 tables of 100nl on stars back in the day, and those refs were eons ahead of almost all live nl players. I didn't really run into many tough players down here in the south until I okayes some of the nastier 5-10nl games and the 5-10-25 nl and PLO games. They def had some monsters playing in those

This is straight up gibberish to me, I won't front ?

I'm just amazed at the downvotes I got. What did I say that was so offensive?

To break that down, the folding pocket kings and aces is pretty self-explanatory. I got raised later in the hand with those 2 hands so I had to fold. One guy had 3 of a kind (which is also know as a set) and the other flop an ace with ace king.

The rest is a bit more involved. In a cash game, you usually start out with 100 big blinds or BBs. To get all of that money in before the flop usually means 2 big hands going against each other. This chick had been raising a wide range of hands, so I had been reraising (or 3-betting her) her with a wide value range. We had another guy behind me go all in for a small amount more, so when she called him, I knew her range was mostly weak, so I went all in.

Oh I wasn't offended and I didn't downvote, I just read it and was like...."yeah I haven't the foggiest idea what any of that meant."

I know next to nothing about card games irl.

Thanks for the explanation! Much obliged

all over

old guy was the one telling me about it one night. he would wear ballcaps. would argue all the rules

he got the doctor mazen to play out there i think. mazen was from TX

the NL pro-regs were mostly from LC (some guys from TX would come out for a week t a time and air bnb a house here and there) but the ATM-regs were from SE TX, Orange to Houston.

the PLO guys...man i mostly know them from their stupid callin names. there's the young guy with teh dip and ballcap. Jared. S K (an indian guy). Mr. Ed. black guy whose name i can't think off off hand. he was an engineer but retired adn is now a bail bondsman.

I wonder if I'm the "young guy with the dip/baseball hat"? Lol

That's how a bunch of people describe me. Lol

Hmmm. I don't want to get very personal, but I did end up marrying a girl who was a cocktail waitress(for a very short time).(she was in nursing school as well) We got married in 2016. Lol.

I was also a semi-reg at many casinos. Lol

I just got a raise called on the turn with a turned boat (5's full of K's) by a flush draw as we speak. Too damn bad he didnt hit his flush on the river.

No fold em hold em.
