Beat/Vent Thread

[John Miller]

there is no way in hell that i am ever giving anyone else money just for watching me play.

my gift to repay them would be to rail them sometime.

tbh, unless you are god and winning craploads of money, giving away $5 or whatever is just silly, especially when this represents a significant proportion of a buyin for the tournament you are actually playing.

I think you are missing the point ....doesnt mean madali or myself are wrong just that we might think differently to you.

Like she said I look on it as karma, and btw I dont just sit there watching someone play, when I rail my mates we usually have some convo on the go, encouragement, little tips helps people remember at times after they may have been playing for 4 hours, it all helps to keep focused.

Each to their own

i have railed many people in the manner you have suggested, its good fun, and i usually play better when being railed.

but i dont believe in karma, and i think its a pretty significant hit to my winrate if i start giving $5 to every person that rails me,

You are probably right benny the cunt but it is just not Karma to me it is sharing the wealth. If your friends do the same back it can be nice. I heard about the root bone sitting with Durrrr when I asked one of his friends what the root bone tshirts they were all wearing meant. Perhaps I should wait until I have Durrrs bankroll before I send root bones but I dont think either is going to happen any time soon

As I said have not sent a root bone in a while (except to my husband) as have not had the bankroll or the wins to warrant it

Dave, we are in serious need of "like" buttons around here!!

Should not complain about the bad beats because there is always the reverse side.

I know but I think it is important to remember that for every bad beat there is a suck out. Helps put things in perspective

[krunchie]

standard

[rcon]

Very standard, but having just ground my way to top 4 to have this smash my stack is very frustrating
