Jealous

LOOL at some of the theory discussions

btw, obligatory thank you to all you guys for teaching me how to play, I don't mean this to make fun of anyone.

lol wish i had started then as well

hmm. i call with gutshots...is that bad?

lol wow

lolol I keep reading frinkx's posts and then looking over at him IRL, then laughing at him, then reading more and laughing again.. tho he is the first person in there to talk any sort of sense

grinding 5/10 and 3/6 on 5k bankroll hahaha

you were also jealous about how you could have been the best around in 1999 if you then had the starcraft skill you had in 2005? ^^

flop is 8 J and 4 i only raise 1$ to make some money 3 ppl stay turn is like a 2, no flush draw or anything i go all in 50$ 1 guy folds 1 guy goes all-in with 50$ the river is a 6

I'm actually reasonably confident that I'd be one of the 3 best NL hold'em players in the world in like '99 with my current skill-set, and maybe top 30 in 2003. Now whether or not I'd have the cleverness and drive to come up with everything I learned independent of the collective poker hivemind is another story...

+ Show Spoiler +

i liked reading lots of nazgul's posted hands and him limping TT/JJ in FR.
also reading Dirk's comments about pps and raising being aggressive with them were very interesting, as most of the other posters denied that it was a good strategy. he sounded like he was really ahead of the curve and I wonder who he is and if he's still playing and if he's doing very well.

rofl the best post is a dude trying to convince another that 2 buy ins + deep it's wrong to put the money in preflop with AA because "it's better not to invest so much money in one hand"

LOL was just about to post that. It's funny cause it was a lot of raises preflop and finally the guy pushes in for what is left with his stack. The guy with AA calls and get sucked out on and this is the response:

Why did you call it? You don't know what is going to come up on the flop. You shouldn't bank that much money on something where you don't know the results.

WHY WOULD YOU CALL THAT?

Lots of raising for info ITT

Hmm I posted in that thread back in the day. I feel old.

That's funny shit. I curse myself for not reading TL.net otherwise I would have discovered online poker sooner .
