So lemme get this straight.....someone who knows they have the best hand....and will have an all in called......should bet less......to be NICE????

Wants to turn us all into a bunch vegans perhaps?

Uncle Beef I have a beef with this one! Also, I recommend pulling this one down! If someone can get paid off, they should always go for it! There is no cut throat player that I see here. He had a chance to get paid and he did. Extract all the money you can, ALWAYS. A value bet isbasically betting as much as you think your opponent will pay you! It's always about getting as much as you can. I over bet the nuts here alot as people tend to pay off. LIve I switch up. You're still cool tho

Umm you are kidding right? I have never seen a successful player in this game that wasn't cut throat. You have to be able to go in for the kill with the best hand. This game is all about maximizing your winnings and minimizing your losses. If someone who has you outchipped pushes enough to put you all in, that isn't mean. That is just how this game is played. If you don't like it I suggest you try Checkers, just avoid chess as someone will try to kill your king.

I think your tie is too tight. Your kidding................right?

Huh?

Actually, I've been at a few final tables. Just haven't been cut throat enough yet to be the last woman standing.

If it helps at all, I felt bad for you. I thought for sure the all-in would make you fold.

as with all "you guys", if it had happened the other way around you would have been brilliant?

I don't think that you can be called Unclebeef anymore. How about Uncletofu. Your blog is one of the most insane things I have heard in a long time. The whole point here is to defeat the enemy. And enemy is everyone at your table including the dealer.There is no Geneva convention in poker. Understand OB

Thanks to everyone that commented on this blog... I was just letting of some steam and trying to make a point... I see only 1 or 2 of you got it...

Beef

UNCLEBEEF letting off steam is 1 thing. But making a point? You start a tourney with so many chips in every players hand. And the poin of the game is to end up with all those chips in your hand. There is no rewards for giving some1 a another hand to get back into the tourney. Its a cut throat game. You called and cut your own throat. GOAL be last 1 standing Not have all the chips but 1 chip for your opponent.

OMFG...... u really put this one in a public forum....where u learn to play....... ummmm lets see, i got the nuts and i know this guy is strong enough to call a big bet, but i'll just smooth call him cause i dont need the extra chips........ BRILLIANT...... U R A GENIUS........ u playing good....keep it up......LMAO

Sorry Beef,but your rationale regarding big stack beeting is a little off.I agree there are too many newbie DONKS that go all-in with ATC and hope to double or triple up early on,most of them never make a final table,which is a good thing.This is a game of last man standingand not betting the nutz will cost you in the long run.Its not fun to get busted ,but thats the game.Timing is everything and assessing your opponents hand is the most important skill to have.Why is he still calling my bets ?

Thanks to everyone again that hs commented. It is plain that most of you missed exactly what I was saying. I admit am new to SC but not New to Poker. I win my share have not got the money or trophies yet... But that is just a matter of time. When I need a Red/Blue Token I get it... And I do it without playing "CUT THROAT"...You will find me at the Red/Blue money games.

Good Luck to all..see ya at the tables,
Beef

Umm, seriously, and REALLY trying not to be rude here, but why are you even playing poker? To have fun? Street Fighter II is fun, poker is about winning and making money in any ethical way possible. As much money as possible. Anyone down for a game of UNO at my house this sunday instead of playing online?

hey beef u keep sayin that we missed what u were saying , iknow i sure missed what u were sayin then.And sir please believe i am in no way tryin to be rude, but maybe go back and rewrite what it was u were tryin to say. Because the way u put that , if ur opponent were a nun i believe they would have done the same thing.Good luck to u sir and don't be afraid to take someones chips (all of them) they will get over it i promise u.By the way u do know u get a bounty for knocking someone out of trny

sry dude this blog is sad!

Beef, I would still take you out, however the only thing I would do different is to make the bet the same size as your remaining chips or slide the scale thing over to where it is just over what you have left. Every player that is taken out of the game brings me one step closer to the FT and hopefully getting 1st.

MAYBE SPADE CUB SHOULD GET RID OF THE RAISE BUTTON.
