Done with this shite man
So I decide, u know okay I'm gonna deposit $100 and grind micro zoom 2cent/5cent. Gone are the days where I'm consistently busting cuz I'm playing at higher stakes in which I have no business playing in, in relation to variance and bankroll mgmt. I'm gonna do this right. I'm gonna control my tilt. I'm gonna build.im gonna grind with patience, But you know what? I'm getting butt munched again and again and again by unreal calls, so I get more aggressive:

Thing people don't realize is that people floating with straight draws are the people we WANT to play against, we will be super profitable long term.
so suck it up sally, play more hands, and stop complaining.
After I posted that I hit a table, wait around for a hand, Ak, I bet 3bb of course everyone folds. So I wait around more, AQ suited, this time I only raise 2bb to get a call from a marginal hand. Flop comes J64, so I cbet, guy calls, river is a 7 and dude raises, I knew right there I was getting bent over , and I could feel it coming. I knew what he had, But I just called cuz I couldn't believe it, I had to see it for myself, to see if t's possible,to chuckle at it all. 35o. Thanks for listening my friend.
Not sure how long you have been playing cash games, but I bet you in a couple years you will be the guy holding 35o!
Hand #1 - your lucky the guy didn't raise you on the river!
Why do you bet that? I'm not following.
I'm not DJ, just a frustrated dude, ten mins ago I lost my stack via fullhouse vs quads. Lord all mighty help me.
What is with these players?
Why do I attract them? Am I the only one who gets this shit?
I was complaining about consistantly getting called and by this forums advice I was asked to suck it up, so I did, but c'mon man, I just wanna play some poker my man. Just some honest poker man.
Check this out, and btw I'm calling the river just to see what these guys are calling with.

I'm raising to A-let him know I got a pair, and B-to see if he's gonna reraise me with a better pocket pair, in which I'd prob let it go.

Greg will tell you which way is correct...
Exactly, at these stakes players are not going to fold to 20 cent raises. Hand #1, this guy hits a double gut shot on the turn so you are not getting him off the hand, even if you push. Not that they will fold at $5/$5 levels either lol!
tapatalk puts this here to annoy YOU
I get the feeling that in these stakes raising 50% is enough to get Folks off there gutshots as I expect even 50cents puts a dent in a $5.00 stack that people would rather not piss around and preserve their stack as it's zoom and a much much better hand than 10/7 on this board is only a click away to the next table. Like Jesus Mary man, a few clicks away you can be holding pocket aces in zoom But apparently I'm wrong.
I'm gonna try higher stakes when I get the bankroll via payday cuz I'm just getting murdered.
Oh yeah and shite is a Scottish way of saying shit or something or other.
Next time you get a bad beat:
Celebrate!
Rejoice and be exceedingly glad!
For unto you is presented a bad player!
If you're playing live, smile, High 5, and sincerely say, "Nice Hand!"
After learning to play, this is the most important skill you can develop.
The way to avoid bad beats is to play bad and get it in bad. :-)
Pretty soon when you talk about poker you will never tell your poker buddies a bad beat story, unless it involves hookers and blow.

Very very Interesting.
Interesting way to look at bad beats, rejoice and don't tilt off your bankroll.
Thanks for the feedback guys.
And since you & pokerJAH don't understand that pkrfce9 was being his usual sarcastic self, do NOT play higher if you can't even beat the micro stakes with the worst players.

Please tell me he cracked queens or something too!
Looollll :laugh:
ONE TIME
First of all 5/10 would be about right for $100 if that's your bankroll, however if you can't play winning poker it doesn't matter how big your bankroll is, you WILL go bust. Just a fact of life.
Okay and at what point could you move up in stakes in terms of bankroll? $200?
