Giants Fan 85 Posted February 15, 2007 This particular instance is on a $3,000 Pokerrom play money SNG. After being unable to bluff, and not placing in a couple $500 SNG's, I decided to UP to a $3,000 SNG that people might take seriously, and found I was able to bluff there (almost like if it was for real money). I flat out dominated for the first couple rounds. Trapping people, bluffing, seeing every flop ... I had 6500 of the 15k in chips pretty quick. One guy challenged me at the table ... and caught me bluffing, so I switched gears, and started playing tighter, only to continue to trap people, and make some very gutsy calls. Ended up, head to head, I had 8200 to his 6800. Tough player goes all in, and I call. It's his king something against my ace something. I'm like 60% to win, flop is even better, then he pairs his king on the turn ... leaving me with like $1500 in chips. Next hand ... I had A,6 and went all in, and he called me. I forget what he had, but I was again the percentage favorite ... lost that, and finished 2nd. 2 bad beats in a row ... but so far, I'm up on the night!

Giants Fan 85 Posted February 15, 2007 hows your art coming? Slowly. I have a new painting concept ... but it would not be easy to paint here in my studio apartment. It's going to be abstract/realist, if that makes any sense. Think of a tangled up, really detailed vine from nature. with little leaves and endless detail ... it's likely going to be another 2 year painting ... but you never know, sometimems they come at you all at once. In the mean time, being a PROFESSOR of graphic design is fullfilling my creative needs. GFIAFProfessor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giants Fan 85 Posted February 15, 2007 I can play Omaha .... might surprise you. I learned to play poker 30 years ago .... and it was 5 card draw, back then everyone played 5 card draw .... besides these crazy Texas Hold 'Em players. I can play Omaha .... I like it better if it's high/low. Place? Time? Game? For how much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince44 202 Posted February 15, 2007 I think as far as you being a dominate poker player...while you may be very good..when it comes to poker greatness at FFtoday this is Strike's world and we are just living in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giants Fan 85 Posted February 15, 2007 I think as far as you being a dominate poker player...while you may be very good..when it comes to poker greatness at FFtoday this is Strike's world and we are just living in it. I won't say that Strike sucks ... but I'd beat him. He'll tell you differently. It'd take at least 10 heads up games to make any call. I am more agressive .... I don't think he could match me. I rip appart, just about everyone I play, every time. You can ask all my friends I play with .... I am the player to beat .... but nobody ever does. I'm that good. I win, eventually .... every time. I can talk, look at your face, show a face etc. to send you towards tilt. I can walk right in, take a seat, and take over a live table. And I will win. It takes a Pro level player to even hang with me, or I win. You saw, I won a freeroll one time, 1400+ players ... I was FIRST! And that was online. I'm better, real life. Ask Mike Matasow .... he'll explain the whole thing ... I suck online. RL .... I can beat anybody. I'm prolly, the best NLHE player ... in the World .... RL. ETA: Someday ... like in Rounders, against Chan, I'ma trap Seidel ... and prove my shiznit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
