Make a note on the guy, open up another table and move on, you want people making these kinds of calls, you will get paid off in the end.


When I finally learned to deal with horrid beats while 10 tabling 1-2 NL, it made me a completely better player. I still will get frusterated but I hardly ever tilt anymore.

Blitz, are you upset the guy won? Or just pointing out how the cards fell during this particular hand?

I was short stacked and I don't blame the guy for calling, you could say it's the way the cards fell...

Not to be a d*ck, but that statement is amazingly wrong.

He completed the big blind plus 38 from the small bling with one person left to act (BB) after him and Blitz all in. AND HE IS THE CHIP LEADER - A monkey can make this call.

Its not a terrible play by any stretch of the imagination. With K high, he'd have to think about betting 3x big blind to isolate you.


Plus, you were beat by the BB as well with his monstrous two pair.

Ah blah, I didnt look at how big the blinds are... your completely right and obviously standard calls by both... I was trying to get across that you cant get upset when stuff like this happens, it wont help any, only lead to your bankroll getting lower, it happens all the time.

my bad, next time i'll have to read more closely.
