Uh, I guess you'll hate me then. As I am a beginner I only play low-limit SNGs at the moment and on those tables there are millions of fish; some like me, some far worse. I really cannot stand it when I've got a strong hand and that lucky river gives my opponent the hit he wanted to go with his 46o that he's called all my raises with, giving the lucky ****er a straight. I hate it when people bother playing hands like that!

I think you misunderstood. Suckouts are part of poker...they happen...it's when somebody complains about them, then 2 hands later they do the sucking out and brag about how good they are...

I feel a bit embarrassed when I make a bonehead play and it wins.

Actually I kinda like those people, they are frustrating...but you aren't going to make is much money if everyone plays optimally.


My pet peeves are table coaches and people who berate the fish, I almost always stand up for the fish, that usually puts el-superstar on tilt if he wasn't already.

I know how ya feel. I played the other night and this loser at the end of the table was crying all night. Every time he was beat in a hand, his arms were flailing and mouth was running overtime. I just wanted to bust him then bitchslap him for crying so much.

This move actually has its place. In a heads up situation I've had many people fold to a nut board when I went all in. Being that my bet wasn't raked if it didn't go in the pot, I've made quite a bit of cash doing this.

Yeah that's another thing I hate.. and it usually seems to be either an old retiree or a complete computer dork

getting owned at the river by a backdoor straight draw

i do this alot to throw off my opponent. to make an illusion that i have a second-best hand. it works wonders.

Yeah 'nh' when you've got two pair or something really annoys me.....I usually say 'thanks nemo!'....then if they take offence...'well you think two pair is a nice hand, so you're clearly a fish...' This tends to end the 'nh' comments.

And God I hate $5 tourney pros...

Those guys that could even teach Phil Ivey a thing or two. They themselves of course play a perfect, unbeatable game (that never ever requires even the tiniest amount of luck). The only reason they are not WSOP champ is because they were on holiday at the time, or something.

If you're so good.....why are you playing a $5 SNG?

I suppose you need a break from constant 4000/8000 hold em at the Bellagio, but why spend it telling everyone on a Pokerstars $5 SNG how rubbish they are?!!!

And why do you always bust out before me?!?!
