Hi Cardmates, I am writing to you in fear of my life!
I was given a choice…….
Give up poker
Or else
Divorce!
I have been trying to give up playing poker, but I keep pulling myself back in. Now, I’m only a low stakes recreational player. I am however a Cardmates expert therefore I feel that qualifies me with the ability to produce an edge (Bull@#@#) other players don’t possess!🤣
Let us get into my winning day on GGPOKER 🥳
It started off with my daily free ticket……
A good start!
In the money with the second!
I then decided to give a $1 tournament a go……
ITM just missed the FT!
Next day had a go in a couple of bounty tournaments, but no luck!
I decided to give it a go in another $1 tournament…..
ITM & FT!
In Conclusion Cardmates, I have had a couple of good days at the tables for FREE! With a big smile on my face and all the highs and lows of poker the only trouble is, it could end in divorce! 🤪🤣🥳
♥️♠️♦️♣️
- Hi Cardmates,
I blogged about my enjoyable 2 days at the poker tables…….
Today however, is very much a different story…….
- Wrong decisions
- no vision
- bad beats
- loosing my winnings
Just saying I can feel the tilt in my game, I cannot explain it. I am surrounded by this vibe at the tables.
Now I know there are two choices here……
- Call it a day
- Grind it out
The first is the option I’m thinking, I would love to take the second option but you have to weigh up your personal circumstances. Having the time and finances to take the second option is not available to me. Also, I mentioned my issue regarding the trouble&Strife(Wife) so option one it is!
Look at me Captain Sensible, stepping away, calling it a day. I’m going to go and offer to do the dishes now instead. Here I am Cardmates, a new man making the sensible decisions keeping what chips are left in my account for another day.
Cardmates, comment and let me know what you think and feel in these situations……..
- do you know
- do you feel it
I’m off creeping, I look forward to your comments!
An open question regards "luck" in 888Poker.
As you will see from the snippets below, we are beyond late registration now I joined before the add-on/end of late reg (40 mins, tourney is now 1hour and still at 91% and table lead) and have watched this fish all in hand after hand toppling connected aces/royals, pocket pairs and allsorts with any 2 cards obviously occasionally actually having two, but not 92% of the time, usual chip lead stuff too, ships with nothing made on the turn to a made hand makes a gutshot, flush etc.
So variance is one thing 92% ship rate over 39 hands table chip lead (you will note everyone else is playing tight too so always up against something).


So what will all of u be watching over halloween period?. Personly i dont enjoy horror movies anymore since i have gone past the age of 16 i find that they hold no more scary storys than the 10oclock news the real world is much worse now. I do still watch them but would like to see one that scares the crap out of me and the kids 🤣🤣🤣
