Heriot-Watt Poker :: Hands which make me go hmmmm

Stephen · Royal Flush

It's just propaganda put out to make people think I am lucky when in fact I normally run like crap!

Also I did manage to make enough to cover the rent with about a 20% roi which is surprisingly high to me as it included one session where I was drunk (despite what I was thinking at the time this does not render me a poker playing genius) and one whole day when I just played some of the worst shite ever. 2+2 says a 'good' rate for $11 turbos is 16% so either they suck or I'm immense or I dont run crap afterall.

I make 200k hands 6 tabling for 10 hours a day for a month and I think it'd be quite hard to do and remain sane/solvent (you just can't play well that much for that long it'd be impossible). I find playing well for long periods of time to be hard.

Its about 100 hands per hour per table for 6 max I think although I never play it so dont quote me on that !

3PTBB's/100 for 200k hands at .5/1$ is 6$*2000 --> $12,000

and I was wrong the first time 6 tabling its 11 hours a day for 30 days, 8 tabling it would be 8 and 1/3 hours perday !

Hmmmmmmm, I thought it may have been closer to 5/6 hours a day, 8 and a 1/3 is a bit much and I would prob die after a week, although I am confident I could play 10k hands in a day.

12k would be good though even if it does mean you dont see sunlight for a month, btw alex what was ur BB/100n rate at 100nl and over what sample size

Maybe I could find another degenerate for a "play most hands bet"

It was 29.39, over a sample size of 86 hands!

I think we should change your name to Annette_15 or stillrunninggoot... well at least until you lose a flip

I try not to post beats as if I did this thread would be 1000's of pages long

. For example yesterday I went out of four games in 10 minutes with - 33 vs kk on 3 J 8 flop, KQ vs KJ on K Q 4 flop, KK vs AQs all in preflop and AT vs KJ all in preflop, which is all very boring and doesnt need to be hmmmed at !

If you bet 334, he'd probably have folded.
