I always sit down next to young dude who's an ass everywhere.

We've had dozens of threads about bankroll management (feel free to search for more info), but I consider "taking a shot" to be risky when you sit in a game where the buy in is 10% of your roll. I think sitting with more than that is bankroll suicide.

Please note that "hero" in this thread sat in a game where the buy in was 400% of his roll.

Talk about a recipe for disaster.

The harshness in this thread is so others will learn from akajeff's mistake, since he's obviously still not getting it and is far more concerned with how he played his fucking JJ than the fact that he might as well have transferred his entire bankroll to his opponent and saved himself the time of going through the motions.

Also, we enjoy making fun of idiots.

Invigilator 08-18-07 09:34 AM

No doubt. I have learned my lesson well (and profitably) about taking less than the max buy-in to a table.

why be mean to strangers?

And why not befriend fat pathological retards too? Good life plan you got there sport.

Wes 08-18-07 05:28 PM

Thanks.

it was one of those witty, what is not said but implied, comments. The unspoken deduction from the comment "why be mean to strangers?" is that one should save all of one's meanness for family and friends, i.e. non-strangers.

I was riffing on my original absurd comment about being a nice guy online but an asshole in real life. In short, I was trying to be funny. Unfortunately I am not living in Victorian England, even if my sense of humor sometimes does.

Mr. Melioris, what you've just typed is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this board is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

:cheers::D

Looks like that one went right over your head like the other 50 replys in this thread.

melioris 08-18-07 09:05 PM


Spicoli, when did you give up the weed?

PShabi 08-19-07 03:10 PM

LOL

Where'd Jeff's posts go?

Talking Poker 08-19-07 04:25 PM

Looks like he deleted one:

Did we learn nothing from Matt Damon?

Someone tell that kid to go watch Rounders and figure out what went wrong.
