I Am Running G00t

[Dice Man]

I've been having some amazing luck over the past 2-3 days. Cashed in pretty much every game I've played, most of them turbo so you need hands for them. And I don't think I've inflicted a single 40-60% beat on anybody, since I'd remember those. I've just been getting shitloads of cards that have held up (I've still been getting some beats in crucial situations, but you expect them). I think I've had AA about 15 times in the past 3 days, having played about 20 STTs or so, and the amazing thing is that THEY HAVE HELD UP EVERY TIME.

Check out the picture I just took.



Didn't even bother waiting for the last card. (It wasn't the ace of hearts) On the table underneath it you can see a guy close to eventually running out of cards, his AT against my AJ.

If I ever complain about being unlucky again, link me to this page and I will cease.

Not really as simple as that. I'm just not a cash player. I'll be the first to admit I'm not very good at them. I think I could make a small profit if I took measures to be extra patient and untilted, but probably wouldn't counter out the rake.
My opinion on the matter is: I could play cash games well if I was taught by someone really good at them, I could easily remember to do the same things at the same time, but I wouldn't really understand why my play was any good. I think some tournament players are like that, they get 20 minutes of schooling from Annie Duke or someone and think they have an edge on 90% of the competition.

yep - uber ghey.

whats $10 four pay? top 4 get paid?

Yeah, and the 4th place gets paid exactly what they bought in for, so $10+1 game they get $11. I haven't worked out yet whether I make more money in the FourPay or the regular games, I think it's about the same.
Payouts are 11, 19, 29, 41, as opposed to 20, 30, 50, so the bubble's prize mostly comes off the top prize. I think I prefer it actually as the 3-pay ones are slightly top-heavy in my opinion. I'm quite likely to get a good cash without actually winning.

Id personally play the 3 ppl payout rather than all equally winning the same amount
