depressed.

............ Zalfor?!
new acc imo, vegetable.

you have to become a studnet of the game dont make a goal like ï wanna make 10k this month" aim for something like, "being a winning 10NL player and go from there" and be humble

1.This forum is crowded with really good players. If they see you limp with Q8, they laugh because they get their money from people like you...Its no offense, but it's the truth.
2.If ur in debt you really shouldnt start playing poker. The swings can be emotionally heavy to take.
3.How can this be a place to escape from reality? you've been around for like a week...

i might be wrong, but part of being accepted to LP is getting flamed nonstop

its lp's own special little perk
and sorta makes u feel special that there r people out there spending their precious time just to fuk with u, only u!

otherwise why the hell would baal be a mod?

hey man don't worry too much about it. most people act this way because this is how they learned and they don't know any better. it's always all in good fun though so don't take it so personal. as for baal threatening to ban you... well either he has seen some things that i haven't or he's just in his PMS, ignore it.

it seems you have a lot of issues to deal with in your life as it is, if posting on a forum makes you even more emotional then by all means do leave, get your shit together and come back when you feel better. i've been in your situation when i started poker and that's what i did and am doing good now.

I think the issue with your threads is that you took way too much offense when people said you played hands horribly. Saying those types of things is incredibly standard here, and you should really have lurked enough to find that out. Also, the way you've constantly ignored what the really good players have said is a very contributing part. If you would just have tried to listen instead of getting defensive about your play than you probobly could've gotten alot more accepted.

Also, don't play poker if you're in debt. Just don't do it.

Don't take too much offense when people flame you. It's part of the internet. This community is pretty supportive imo, just keep chugging.

and thumbz, <_<

I know you've been told this a thousand times before but seriously, look at your current situation in life and really ask yourself if poker is a good hobby for you right now =... You're obviously at a low point and i dont think poker is going to help, hell, i'll assume you're an ex sc player, you know how frustrating it can be playing sc when your pissed off and losing to people you know you're better than thru either cheese or you fucking up something stupid, in poker that feeling is magnafied 10x since it happens a lot more and money is on the line (be it small or not).

The main reason you're getting so slammed is because you're posts are, seriously, horrible...

Once again another sc related note, but its like a guy going on TL, first posting about how he cant seem to get out of D- rank on iccup despite tons and tons of knowledge of the game and several failed seasons of trying to just get to D+. Then posting replays of him doing ridiculously stupid shit like 4 pylon 4 gate and saving up 4 zealots and attacking. Of course you're going to get a bunch of replies like "wtf are you doing, everything about this game is just wrong on your part, years of knowledge my ass" and then you backing it up by saying you've been watching combat-ex- vods for ages and he's really good, and defending him when far better players than you and him and saying you're absolutely 100% wrong and dont know what the fuck you're on about, then getting all emo about it cos no body likes the new guy.

There HAVE been helpful posts in your threads, just like the poor basterd who doesnt realize to build more workers in sc would get the helpful post that would atleast send him on the right track. There WILL be more helpful posts for you if you continue to posts hands here (provided you actually show improvement and dont post another hand where your play hasnt improved on any street).

Right now, you do have two options 1 is to just be the quiet guy for a while until you realize how this forum works (notice how the vast majority of posts arent just people lolling at how bad other people are in the help threads, they're actually helpful, unless someone posts something so bad it'd take a 500word essay to explain how wrong it truely was). or 2 is to just leave.

LOL this is such a good analogy

don't play poker if ur going to need the money or have emotional swings that you can't handle.

that's just a losing game imo

I've never played starcraft, yet it's incredibly clear to me too. Well played, Ftrunkz

Dude you're an emotional crybaby no offense. STOP TRYING TO GET INTO POKER IT'S NOT FOR YOU.

You're way too emotional about stuff to get into poker. It will seriously fuck your life up.

Rofl dude
You join an internet forum and u dont expect to be flamed ? Give me a break.Only 3 people that were never flamed ( or at least i havent seen ) here are elky khan and nazgul.Its part of the forum - so are trolls , hardcore sarcasm, and "DUUH SHOVE"
You should really focus on ur life right now and not on poker or anything gambling related really.


Also when someone that has 100000x times more experience than you and tells you something - you should listen to him.Being stubborn is stupid and it doesnt help u develope in any way

this is mostly true unfortuatley, it's extremley imporant to be a successful poker player that you have very strong emotional stability, this is something you can work on vegeta, if you make a conscious effort. People who bitch at every problem that comes their way generally dont get very far in life

if you can't stand being flammed here you will kill yourself when you hit your first downswing

baby

you should reread all of your posts and think about the attitude/incoherence/defensiveness you wrote them with.

i never had a problem when i was new here. you dont listen to what anyone has to say and youre hostile.
