Hehe…bored, so what do you do? Right, reload at FTP to hook yourself up to the Rush-Crack-Machine…who could pass a 100$ bonus offer? Hehe…

Dumped a few bucks making stupid moves, the biggest money drains were the usual hands though:

1. Pop it from the hijack with AsKs…get repopped, shove..instacall by Ah Kh…the rest is the usual

AK vs AK

2. Call a raise in the BB with 77, shorty comes along in MP. Flop 8T6 all spades. Check, check, small bet. Call by me, shorty calls all-in short. Turn 9c. Straight baby. Check, small bet, min-raise, call. River 9s. Yikes. Check, ultra-small bet, donk call. Of course he rivered a boat.

river rat

3. Pop it from the hijack with AJs000000ted. Flat call from the button – hmm. Flop AJ6 all hearts though. Don’t care, bet pot, repop, shove, instacall by AcKc. Noice. Turn 6…river K…fuck me…

river rat

4. Pop it from UTG with QQ, small repop BB, call. Flop 688 bet, shove…ponder ponder…if you got me you got me – of course he got me, what was I thinking? lol

QQ vs AA

The new found ev tells me that I deserved to lose a little, but it also shows that I’ve been running nicely under ev…surprised? Not really. Anyway..not really pissed off, just tired and outta here…

The Rush is over…busto

Filed under: Casual Play, Full Tilt Poker, No-Limit Hold'em, Opinionated, Rush

Well, well, good job FTP…or should I say good job Ingoal? No matter what, after four days of playing rush on FTP (after reloading), I’m officially busto again. Rush – the quickest way to evaporate your bankroll! (TM)

Teeeheee mofos! I could go on about the cooler here and the cooler there, but what use is it? It’s tough to stay sane if you run into bs after bs…add to that, that it’s sometimes so hard not to overcommit when everyone is on crack and what are the chances someone has a higher pair than your JJ and QQ when it folds around to you – hint: not all that high…in rush it feels like 97,5%…

…and quicker than you can say “get the fuck out of here”, you’ve got one hell of a bad run that is unprecedented. All in all it took me 4.129 hands to go busto, should have been busto before that, but after getting aces cracked left and right I was able to crack ‘em myself, just in time to give me a few extra hands…hehe…anyway…hawesome how I kept away from FTP exactly for that bs as I couldn’t catch a break, no I run back to the poker crack dealer and they got exactly what I need…getting kicked in the junk four times as much per hour….nice.

Some fun stats:
- Lost 0.05$ per hand
- #1 hand dealt 96o (54 times)
- Most money won (total): QQ 23.27 (dealt 25 times, won 22 times)
- Most money lost (total) AQ -39,63 (dealt 39 times, won 24 times)
- Only winning position: UTG (lol)

I’m feeling kind of numb right now…so I’ll let you enjoy the final rush pic dump and I’m outta here…not to return to FTP for at least the next 1.5 years…or maybe I should make it 3 as the first 1.5 years obviously didn’t do any good…

Soul crushers

Filed under: Casual Play, Full Tilt Poker, No-Limit Hold'em, Opinionated, Rush

Those were the players I was up against today, soul crushers. I started off with a quick session winning around 1.5 buyins. Then later today I came back for a longer session and they really crushed my soul.

The old overpair vs overpair I can take, but what’s a lot harder to take is being river over and over and over and over. How can ppl honestly call preflop, on the flop and on the turn with air and hit their fucking river like 80% of the time? Two outer? No problem. 4 outer – no problem. 3 outer – no problem. 6 outer – why do you even ask if a 2 outer is no problem, go ahead monkeyshove, the dealer will peel it off for you.

What adds fuel to the internal steam-producing fire is the fact that you can’t get any fucking action on your big hands, at least on most of them. How come I get aces 4 times, and get no action whatsoever on two of them? How come on the other hand everytime I get kings I get monsteraction and usually end up getting junkkicked so hard, I could scream from the pain? Wtf is going on here? Full Donk Poker? Hidden camera show? Wtf!

In the end it got so frustrating that I did something I rarely if ever do…I donkshoved my last stacks in when I just knew that my opponent had sucked out…again. Disappointing. Anyway, enough of the rant, I’m outta here. Utterly frutstrated, mad and tilted, which seems to be the norm these days. Happy fucking day to y’all…

Mood: Steam-tilt

Only a short session today playing two rush tables at once. Took some beats (one of the nastiest was KK vs AA on a AKQ board…yikes…), put some beats on other ppl…all in all I’m really satisfied with my play today. Could be a normal up-swing, could be the adjustments I made, too early to tell after ~500 hands, we’ll see how it goes over the next few days/weeks…until then…enjoy the pic dump…I’m outta here…

Hello, I’m Ingoal, a cash game donk
Sunday January 24th 2010, 4:58 pm
Filed under: Casual Play, Full Tilt Poker, No-Limit Hold'em, Rush

Hehehe…just goes to show you how good natured I really am, I can still laugh after dropping 10Buyins. After 1,5 years of abstinence at Full Tilt, I decided to jump back in, because of the newest hype “Rush”. The concept has been widely discussed, so I’m assuming you know what I’m talking about.

I played around 5 hours of Rush so far and I’m really frustrated. I can’t get action on my big hands, if I do I got the second nuts running into the nuts, and I think I gave to much action on different occasions, when in reality it was totally unnecessary. Side effect of the constant action? Gambling mood? I think both are true to some extent and the fact that I’m usually a (turbo) SnG player doesn’t translate that well to cash…

Early lessons after analyzing the first 1.5k hands played:
1. It’s not worth defending the BB unless you’ve got a monster.
2. It’s not worth defending the SB either.
3. LP/Button – constantly raise, most ppl can’t be bothered to defend (see 1. and 2.) and if they do, they usually have a monster
4. Don’t be afraid to take a break every now and then – I usually only take a break after 2hours or something, but you gotta consider that I played around 300h per hour playing rush. That’s way above the usual hands/hour I play in any other game.
5. JackAce is the shiznuts. Got it 16 times, won 14 out of 16..lol…biggest winner ranked by Amount Won.
6. AQ and TT are the cash game devil…cost me a good 40 bucks running into AK, a small set or some random bs (Kx, etc)…
7. Don’t be afraid to pot, pot, pot it if you’ve got a monster…ppl are willing to fold for small bets just as they’re willing to call big if they’ve got a piece of it…and if they don’t they’ll fold anyway as the next hand is just 1s away….

I’m outta here…time to regroup and relax a little…no more poker today…

Of course…

Of course…

  • …there’s no way to beat the game with such a huge short-term downswing.
  • …there’s no way to ride out a cold-streak if ever god damn micro sng represents 10% of your roll.
  • …it’s normal that you can lose every coin-flip short-term.
  • …it’s normal that your opponent calls all-in with one card to come with any draw (ranging from 2 to 8 outs).
  • …it’s normal that they hit each and everyone of these draws on the river.

That being said, of course I’m never ever ever coming back to “Full-Tilt-rape-my-asshole-all-day-every-day”-Poker unless one of two things happen:

  1. I get a start-roll that is big enough that a donkey-SnG represents less than 5% of my roll at any given time.
  2. A miracle happens.

Until then it’s bye bye and never see you again….FullTilt fuckers…and this time I mean it, mark my words!



Newsflash: FullTilt still rigged…

So…I decided to make a comeback at FullTiltPoker tonight. I haven’t played there in months as I had the most horrific luck and totally busted out in a rare tilt-flash a few months back. So I decided to reload tonight to join Kat’s rebuy madness. Because the start of the tourney is so late (for me – 3am), I decided to kill some time donking around at the PlayMoney Horse-Tables…and to my surprise, after a few minutes, a red pro sat down. David Bradley, the stud specialists, joined the game and was quite chatty and all. Sure enough the table chatter was starting to fire up and the wait list grew. So I played a while and then gave my seat to another player…

David Bradley

So, then it was time to start the donkarama…and it started out like a charm. Rebuy. Rebuy. Rebuy. Quadruple up. Rebuy. Rebuy. Rebuy. Well, double-rebuys can really be a PITA quite quickly. So in the end I decided no to rebuy anymore after I had already rebought 15 times and my second real hand of the night (JJ) was obv cracked as I couldn’t dodge two overcards…too bad…the first time ever that I didn’t even last through the rebuy period…but honestly I didn’t see much point in dumping more chips and cash…enjoy the random pic dump and I’m outta here…

Pissed off…

Filed under: Full Tilt Poker, Heads Up

…okay okay, I’ve never ever been so pissed off. I kept my promise not to play a hand of poker over at stars…I didn’t keep my promise to not play at all though…log on to FullTilt and watch how your bankroll evaporates with beat after beat…unbelievable…the only mystery is why I didn’t log off before losing my whole bankroll on Full Tilt…I should have seen the bs coming…after all I got fucked over in each and every match today…highlight of the day: AQ vs K7…he pushes all-in with no pair no draw after the turn…I call with no pair but the best hand…river 7; even better: last match 30+1.5 NL headsup…my opponent is such a jerk telling me what a fish I am and yadda yadda…I chop him down to under 800…then the usual happens…limp…we see a flop of 654…I hold 64…I bet he pushes…I instacalls…he shows K6o…lol…nice!…turn blank…river 5…counterfeiting my two pair…and busto….ty Full Tilt…thank you online poker in general…you have bend me over and put a whole poker table up my rear-end for the last week…ty very much for all that…what a way to end the year…I’m out…and I’m not sure I’ll EVER play at Full Tilt again (I know that is small-minded as such a bad run can happen, but still, I feel like I’ve been cheated…cheated by luck, by FullTilt, by the bs rng, by everyone….in the end it comes down to this: I GOT UNLUCKY…boohoo….still hurts like hell and if FullTilt was a person I would smack the shit out of him… ;) )



Utter frustration

Filed under: Full Tilt Poker, No-Limit Hold'em, Rebuy, Tournaments

I didn’t intend to play poker at all today, but I couldn’t miss Al’s birthday rebuy madness…so why not…let’s just say it ended in utter frustration. Nothing better than to play 2hours of poker, build your stack up up and up…then get burned by two fugly plays. First…Sox pops my SB…I repop him with TT…he pushes…easy call fellows…he shows KQo…errm yeah, nice push there, especially as I didn’t play all that many hands…not many at all, but I guess that doesn’t matter…I think I don’t need to comment any further on this one…either you’re dead with that hand, dominated, or in a flip at best…sure enough I lose the flip, so instead of 30k I’m sitting with 10k….next stop…how to lose with As8s against 2s3s….min-raise preflop…true that’s a ghey play on my part, but I was still a little tilted about the fucking KQo hand. Flop comes A35. I lead out…call…turn is another 3….push comes to shove and although I got the sick feeling that I’m beat, I still call…because I can’t believe that someone would have stuck along with a 3 there all that time, come on I raised UTG and I’ve shown nothing but the best hand in a long time…but as things were, I was right (and wrong)…23 s000000000ted good enough for a call preflop and postflop…gin on the turn and you got my money. Still a fucking donk play IMHO, sorry, I don’t feel like being courteous here….I’m out of here…steamed up…fucking donk hands, keep peeling it off for them in crucial pots…so sick…
