Is this code for masturbating?I need to kill a kitten...
What? No, I've got a hammer that could use some kitten brains on it.Is this code for masturbating?
i do too, I hate them.That's why I jam or go over the top with AA preflop. At my home game, the fish said I should have played em slow. I basically bought the pot and showed em to establish strength in my raises. They don't know what we see with that bullshit hand.
Smash that LIKE button.

No one wants to hear your logic and reason, Rob. This is much too soundJust a friendly reminder from Bart Hanson that every time you win with AA, you’re doing better than expected value - they’re supposed to lose sometimes.
The worst is when they say something stupid like "idk, I was just gambling". So clearly the odds are in your favor but they still happen to take that one.It is frustrating. I got ran down twice last night, once with AA, where I raised to $6 in a .25/.50 game by someone with K4 off. Hit a set of 4's on the river. My post flop bet was $15. It happens, but, the worst part is trying to tune out the reasons behind why they were making that call. I would never condone harming kittens, but, I will say that while I'm staring at them when they're voluntarily explaining why they were calling, I see a bullet explode out the side of their head, then smile while they finish their tale of fiction.
Been playing quite a while, I'm 57, and even though they don't bother me the same way they use to 35 years ago, they still bother me. Especially in the context given above. They don't tilt me, but, crazy play still bothers me. I realize I win far more with them than I don't, when a donk calls a huge raise with K4 off and keeps calling huge all the way way to the river will probably always bother me to some degree.Play enough and the beats won't bother you. AA is the biggest winning hand
With apologies for being that guy again, we want those stupid calls! Those guys are the ones making poker profitable to winning players.crazy play still bothers me
Stay away from poker. Take up chess if you want to play a game where the best player always wins.sorry, but two days in a row to lose entire stack with over 88% chanceto win at the river. I hate this fucking game.

The longer you play poker, the more likely it is you see the unlikely outcomes sooner or later. Getting Aces cracked twice hardly moves the needle for me having played "serious" hold'em for 20 years now. If it makes you this mad, seriously consider quitting now.

If you say so, this is just an usually strong reaction to an occurrence you should have faced several times by now.I’ve been playing over 20 years.
Ah, I get it. This is where I went wrong, this wasn't about a back-and-forth, this was about one side speaking without challenge. I get it now, my mistake.It was a rant and I said I was taking a break.
We agree on that. I've taken way worse beats than this and moved on.We all have bad runs, if you play long enough you’ll unfortunately have a bad spell too.
I apologize, I should have known this was just a meaningless rant. My error.Thank you so much for the input though. I’ll be sure to keep it in the useless info bin that I so treasure.
I love making new friends!
I think it depends on what the simulation you’re living in has it dialed to.I wonder if anyone plays so long that variance +/- equals.
