"Just keep playing bad".

Unknown

A fairly amusing 5 minutes at PokerStars tonight. I found the hand almost as interesting as the chat that followed it. Not a bad beat story... at least, I don't mean it to be.

The Hand.

Within the first hour of a Stars 10+1 rebuy tournament. My play probably isn't great, but hey, it's a rebuy tournament, and we're in the rebuy period. I was willing to chalk up the considerably worse play of my opponent to that same reasoning, but maybe not.... Anyways, here's the hand.

The Chat.

Sorry if I seem Hellmuth-esque in this. Just thought you might get a kick out of it. I wasn't going to say anything at all, and didn't for a while, and then, well, it kind of snowballed.... Never played with this guy before, and we haven't said a word to each other since, lol... funny stuff.

yamcheboy: wow

all aces: yep, one for the books all right

HitmanGMC: I knew that "ALL ACES" only had A K

all aces: ummm

all aces: you only had Q high

all aces: that might be the funniest reasoning i've ever heard

HitmanGMC: no pairs on his side and a runner runner flush for me

all aces: seriously

all aces: that might be it

HitmanGMC: heck my spades were good enough

all aces: i get it

all aces: you're obviously kidding

all aces: ok ok

HitmanGMC: A K is OVER RATED

all aces: so's q8

HitmanGMC: Who pulled the chips in on that pot?? I rest my case

all aces: omg

HitmanGMC: suited BABY

all aces: you are my new best friend

HitmanGMC: just keep playing bad

SUITED BABY!

stpboy

"just keep playing bad"

priceless.

To bad I missed that last night. Would been right there chirping away! U gotta love their logic though. Get'em next time.

Classic!

The pre-maddonas used to annoy me when they'd start chirping like that, but I quickly realized, that's exactly what they want. Besides, eventually they give it all back. They really do provide some great levity when you need it most...

My new tag is going to have to be - "Suited Baby"

DJP

I wasn't involved in either hand but.....

This is so funny because I saw a guy try the same post flop runner runner flush draw, just last night in a SNG. He got spanked and left quietly though. lol And in same tourney, another guy called all in post flop/turn, hoping for his inside straight on the river. Needless to say, he lost too. lol

The moral of this story/thread has to be, if the stakes are low enough, anybody will play anything. lol The sad part is when they win the longshot hand, and then brag about their "skill". lol

DJP

In fact the guy that knocked me out, caught a higher pair on the river, and had top 2 pair to beat my 2 pair. I said, "lucky", and he started getting smart. (i'm so good etc) lol So I says back, "when I made my bet I had the boss hand." He gets mouthy again, so I said back, "Yep well you've only won hands tonight on steals, runner runner hits, or rivering up. So your skill is obvious, looks good on ya." He was still flapping his beak when I closed the table and left. lol

MrBluffsAlot

That guy, along with others like him are just begging to be raped and sodomized.....Actually come to think of it, I just may have played against his brother and 2 cousins last night!

Oh yeah BTW, was that...SUITED BABY or STUPID BABY?

"Stupid Babies require the most attention!"

Jay

LMAO. I love players like this.

Did you edit any of the chat after his last comment?

Lol, no. That's where I left it.

10/20 shorthanded last night. I sit down and the chat looks like I'm now in the middle of WW3. One guy (we'll call him 'Player M', for 'Moron') is screaming at another player, who has just raised. "EVERYBODY LOOK OUT!!!" "HE HAS TWO SUITED!!!" "LOLOLOLOL" and such.

My first orbit, I'm dealt 9cTc in MP. I love this hand. Player M raises UTG, I call, one other player calls.

Flop: 3c Ac 8c. M bets, I raise, other player folds, M calls.
Turn: brick. M checks, I bet, he calls.
River: brick. M checks, I bet, he calls. I show my hand and it is of course good.

M: KEEP PLAYING THAT **** YOU SUCK OUT ARTIST
Me: r u talking to me?
M: WHY WOULD YOU CALL MY RAISE WITH THAT ****
M: KEEP GETTING LUCKY WITH **** *******
Me: oh sry
Me: I thought we were shorthanded
Me: I'll just play aces
Me: hope the blinds don't kill me
Player 'A': heh
Player 'B': lol

And that's the last I heard from Player M, in this, my second run-in with the crazies this week.

Jesus.

Looks like there are going to be a lot of angry parents when their credit card statements come in this month.

LOL @ Player M.

You sure he wasn't just a semi-M?

I'm often tempted to mute player chat. The only thing that makes me keep it on are the idiots who fold preflop and then start discussing their mucked cards while the hand is in play ("I should have stayed in.. woulda had 3 of a kind"), which obviously can be a big problem since I always seem to be representing the cards said idiot is telling everyone he had.

One thing I like about Pacific is that players who bust out of tourneys lose their chat abilities about 2-3 seconds after the river card. A well timed comment to the real obnoxious morons who bust out can be comedy gold for the entire table, especially since you know the moron can see it but has no time to respond before he's booted out of the chat. Normally the funniest comment is just repeating some idiotic "pearl of wisdom" they gave out earlier in the game.

Silence always seems to be the best policy with most of the idiots, though.
