Not only that, but you should have bet the flop. There was a bet and two callers before you. You should have taken control right there, especially with a flush draw on board. Raise to at least 0.60 IMO. At 0.02/0.05 you could probably even shove and get a call from top pair or a flush draw.
Yeah got caught in too much of a trapping mode. Still new to online cash poker and getting help from posters is really appreciated.
 
Yeah got caught in too much of a trapping mode. Still new to online cash poker and getting help from posters is really appreciated.

Trapping can be useful if you have a made hand that cannot usually be beaten, even if your opponents hit. So for example, if you have a full house and your opponent is drawing for a flush, it can be profitable to play it slow (though not all the time). This wasn't the case here, so you had to bet hard on both streets (as pax said, at least pot).
 
And the BS continues. My internet cuts out for 20 mins. End up losing 1/3 of my stack. Come back with 11-12bb's and im in the BB with KK. The usual result. Down nearly $700 US in a few days now. God I hate variance in MTT's.

All in the space of 2 hours. Fair to say i'm not going to be playing for a little while. Really need to take a break from this bs. To top it off one of my contacts fell out and I can't find it, really does help with the tilt.
 
What's PokerEV?

It's a really nice program, does a bunch of stuff.

But in this case, it can look at your PT database, and basically plot a "luck graph". That is, it graphs your "EV winnings" from all-ins, and your "actual winnings" from all-ins. The difference being your luck, or lack thereof, obv.

If also does hand replays with equity automatically included, even for PLO, which is really handy.

King ****ing Jack has to be the worst hand to ever ****ing be invented in the history of poker.

I've lost count of the number of times I've been called after I've shoved with decent hands, only to ****ing be beaten by KJ..... Happens far too many ****ing times.

/rant over
 
I had a MASSIVE vent at bwin in an email, they usually take about 5 days to respond to any emails. I heard back from them within 2 hours and my account should be unblocked within a few hours. :D

I realised why my account was blocked as well. On bwin you can view your account movements and I noticed that there were some cash game losses that I couldn't account for, it was only ever small amounts but it was like ten $3 buy-ins lost in the space of 10 minutes. I looked over my entire history and this came up a number of times, it only added up to about $100 but I couldn't explain it. I rarely play cash games and when I do it's never for $3 or $2 so I would remember it. It was obvious something was up when I checked it one day and that same day only hours before $10 had been lost in cash game... I hadn't been playing. They told me to change my password on my email adress and change my account password to something less easy to crack. And to search my computer for viruses and malicous software. Have no idea what the conclusion was as they can never tell you but looks like they found something.

Seeing how it's the vent thread I guess I have to vent at something. I vent at not being able to play poker tonight! :mad:

Was just playing a tournament on PokerStars.. table of 9, already had some bad beats but none could top this one. I was very short stacked down to 1700 on the button with blinds at 600/1200. I have KA. Under the gun goes all in with 2700, I am all in with my 1700, big blind with chip stack of 16000 calls.

Under the gun has ATs, big blind has 52 off suit

Flop... 2 5 5

Thanks for playing

AK is a 45% favourite to win that hand.

[ ] a bad beat
[x] a bit unlucky
[x] unless you lost the previous hand whilst all in, you shouldn't be sitting in a tournament with 1.5 BB's
