Re: Betpanda.io Bounty Hunter Poker League, Big Prizes!, Huge Bounties!!, Discussion
Ok so I will continue with the first of the three hands that were a bad beat to say the last. But how it came about is interesting because under usual poker considerations, this hand wouldn't even have made it to the flop.
I have KK and raise it to 8 BB for a reason. Some of the guys at the table were on fire calling everything with trash. There are a few reasons for that, but one is that they want the bounty on my head (though I think it is the least important reason to mention here). BitTraderCute paid off all the time, but got lucky and hence has those chips. Almost every other player except for two other guys easily chip in 4 BB for fun. But with KK I want an opponent, maybe two, but not five or six, which is easily possible since iv4n would call if xGennady calls, then almost everyone is 100% a call.
SO I decide to make it 8 BB, which puts xGennady at all essentially (you would think). Then go from there. However, xGennady only calls, which almost crossed my plans since it wasn't unlikely that now the other call too. Calling 8 BB with over 50% of your stack doesn't exist as a plausible move in poker. It is either shove or fold, always. There is no "let me see the flop" while paying an oversized bet with just 15 BB in front of you.
Anyway xGennady calls, everyone else folds and no matter what shows up on the flop, as first to act, my continuation bet in the dark is set in stone. xGennady can only hope, and his hope was heard.
I had the KK losing against KJ and then not too long after that hand the set 333 lose against A10. Everyone knows, on some days you not only have no luck, but bad luck. @AHOYBRAUSE can sing a song about that with all those freaking bad starting hands. But once you get a hand and you can finally play, you get sucked out by a faaaaar inferior hand. That is the moment I look at my keyboard with my head down as if the keyboard was my enemy, you know what I mean
@memehunter the buffering on odysee.com is sooo smooth. On Youtube it usually stops for a moment and then you can go forward again. On Odysee.com going back and forth works like a charm, how is that possible? Is it only me or you have the same experience?
