What is the worst bad beat you ca. Remember? And how much were the stakes?
Hi everyone,
today I decided to start my poker journey. I am not a complete noob, but I am far from a professional player. I registered at GGPoker and took the daily freebie, a $0.25 Spin and Gold ticket.
I activated this ticket to enter a quick 3 player tournament for $0.50, which I actually won in 14 hands (about 4 minutes). My first task as part of the Honeymoon promo was to play 50 hands of Hold'Em poker. I chose the lowest stakes table ($0.01/$0.02) and actually managed to increase my balance to $2.47 while playing those 50 hands. It took me about 40 minutes to complete this mission. It was a super relaxed table with no all-in runners etc. I was able to take 2 bigger pots and finished the mission calmly and relaxed. On to the next day!
Starting balance : 0.00$
Balance after day 1 : 2.47$
Have a nice day and good luck!
Cheers,
Antonio
Hello Community,
You all can call me T.C., I am newer to the online poker seen! I am here to network, learn and teach [if possible lol] as I am a novice to online poker and game theory. But i am excited to learn. I was introduced to the game by my uncle "God Bless" but took it up in a more dangerous setting. Maximum Security Prison. No I am not proud of my mistakes I yet shy from it. Please do not judge me on my past but judge me on the fact that I made it out that darkness with a "Grateful Heart".
Just wanted to introduce myself and please don't mind my grammar...lol
PS I will be making an online poker club PHAT KAT POKER it is just a place to network... its free phatkat.poker@gmail.com
Hey there, poker buddies!
Grab a beer, sit your ass down, and let me tell you a tale of a humble fish swimming in the vast ocean of poker for almost two years. That's right, I'm talking about yours truly!
Spoiler alert: I'm still a fish, but at least I'm a self-aware one.
So, if you're into poker, friendly banter, and don't mind some good ol' sailor talk, then read on, my fellow poker warriors! I've had my fair share of poker rooms, and let me tell you – they're all like a box of chocolates: you never know what kind of degenerate gamblers you're gonna get. I've played with the tight-ass nits who wouldn't even shove pocket aces if their life depended on it, and I've played with the maniacs who'd go all-in with 7-2 offsuit just to give the table a heart attack.
But hey, I guess that's what makes poker interesting, right? If it weren't for these wild-ass characters, we'd all be playing solitaire and crying ourselves to sleep every night. I've gotta admit, though, being a fish in this crazy world of poker ain't easy. It's like swimming with sharks while wearing a meat suit – it's exciting, but you're bound to get bitten in the ass.
You know you're a fish when you've got more leaks in your game than the Titanic. I mean, who needs a well-constructed betting strategy when you can just call every raise and hope for the best? But let's be honest, it's not just the sharks that are out for blood – even the other fish at the table are looking for a snack.
It's funny how everyone thinks they're the next Phil Ivey, but really, we're all just a bunch of fish flopping around in the same pond. And I'll be damned if I'm not the biggest fish of them all.
But hey, at least I'm not a stingy, miserable nit, right? I might not be raking in the cash, and I might be the one who's always complaining about bad beats, but you know what? I've had some great times, met some amazing people, and learned a hell of a lot about this crazy game. I may be a fish, but I'm a happy fish. And if you can't laugh at yourself, what's the point of playing poker in the first place? So, my fellow poker players, next time you're at the table, remember to have fun, laugh at your mistakes, and don't be too hard on yourself. Because at the end of the day, we're all just a bunch of fish swimming in this vast poker ocean, hoping to find that one perfect hand that will make us feel like kings – even if it's just for a moment.
Until next time, keep swimming, and may the poker gods be ever in your favor!
Hello friends.
My last post was made in March.
Тhere have been changes in my life. I have passed to the next step and continue to move on. It will take me a lot of effort to achieve my goals, I'm ready. I thought a lot about the past, today and future. The main thing is not to be frivolous. The main thing is discipline and implementation of the plan.
Poker.
I continue to play at party poker, cash nl10. The opponennts in the game is "fast forward", just magical.

Sport.
Football starts in Europe, after Euro2020. I will follow all the top games. I think the English Premier League will be the most intriguing.
News.

Thanks for taking the time to my blog. Good luck everyone and win.
Hey! How are you today????
So happy to be back in the CARDMATES SPACE! Well, we have another session to share with you!
I worked like hell lately, so i will share some random winnings, and the mixt moments.
PS: Was a period with lot of play on my phone, in the evenings, tired of so much work...

Lost of lot money in this event. Set vs set it's hard attack!

Daily are 3 Pinapple events, NEWS BIG! One 5.5 at 2AM and other 2x 1.1 in the day. I used to play the 12AM, which i won few times. This is one of the proofs lol

And the lobby event.

Otherwise, i "lost" on 5th , dominating with 70% of the chips from entire mmts, all shorts were doubled up from my stack....yea, i gambled a little, with not the best results, but happy to see a new bankroll on this pokerroom. It's a new start!

And i won 11T$ qualified in the MM -Sunday Storm. Sadly, i coudn't play the event...because was Sunday late, and i worked Nightshift in Monday. I still have the ticket, which could be divided in some small buyins in other tournament buyins. But i can't use this money in cash tables. This is good, a conservative way :)
Bankroll is down with ~80$.
Feelings:
1. In August i have 3 weeks Holidays , i will play more.
2. I will travel into the biggest tourism town from ROmania: Kronstadt ( or Brasov) and then i will see the Hermanstadt ( SIbiu). So happy, lots of german people there!
3. I will play only 1-2 events per evening, because i will use one small ipod or my phone.
4. It will be fun! My child will see a lot of new things :D
