Sit N Go Win




This player here - Was a handfull.. "ALL over the place" with their moves - BETS, Checks, etc...

My hats off to this player.. He or She gave me a good fight.

But cmon! I'm doing this sorta thing (poker) since 1991.

Just kidding.. I wish I had this players name.. but when I went back to site - game was closed. It was just a FUN - QUALITY game..

College Kids and POKER

So -

I get invited to the PENN STATE house for a $20 buy in POKER GAME.

7 Players and DONKA-LICIOUS action..

Best hand.. A player Plays A3 off against a SUPER tight player that is now raising... He hits his "3" on flop... and then - THEN decides to "semi-BLUFF" he says.. (I guess he did not NOTICE he was playing the uber tight player at the table)

They both get it ALL IN - and of course when the cards GO FACE UP - A3 is NOT looking good.

River... "3"

Fantastic.

(This knuckle head was dealing - so some of the others started messing with him about cheating)

ha ha!

Cheating a $20 buy in NL poker game.. (ok.. Maybe)

I finished 2nd. First place was just TOO lucky! Hitting every FLOP. (I've been there)

On that note.

It sure is neat to WATCH that "ONE" player in live games that CAN DO NO WRONG... When you play long enough LIVE - you end up seeing how hard it is sometimes to get quality hands to play with - SO - watching the LUCKY guy at the table HIT any TWO HARD.. Well - that's just PRICELESS! Fun stuff.

Another Game this weekend for CHARITY.. $100 buy in game - with a good mix of players.

It was nice to play last night with the KIDS. - if even to WARM up for the bigger game on Sunday. These kids are our future and I'd say the future is going to be OK.

AS to POKER - some of these boys have a long way to go! ON TO SUNDAY!

Wish me luck! (I'll post results..)

I'm seeing things! (AGAIN and AGAIN) Online Poker...






OK.. I can't be the only one seeing things like this..

(Me and this other dude get into some action - and just like always


"for the "ACTION" effect I suppose"


We both HIT!) (Boy oh BOY! Are we ever LUCKY!)

This happens all the time...

This happens too much!


I for one! Can do without all the ACTION every hand... Can we please get a REAL DEAL.. Some boring hands - Some hands that HOLD all the way! (more often).. Cmon!

(calm down Tom)

but waite! (final table!) Blue SCREEN! (Remember -I always tell you about the LUCKY "HOT SEAT!" Well Big Stack here has it! He raises my BB - and BOOM! The two of us are heads up! The two of us !!! "HIT!"

He just hits a little better... I have him crushed.. but this means little online!
Hand after hand.. Same sorta outcomes.. DEEP IN THE FIELD... but not the BIG paydays.

DOES THIS SORTA THING HAPPEN TO YOU TOO?

I think it might! (hey - visit The XFILESPOKER FORUM and sign up at the forum - TELL US what YOU SEE!)
Or - Leave a comment here! MOST OF ALL! Get others out there READING this BLOG. Joining the Xfilespoker forum.


Sure, I take the hand down.. but IS this "real" POKER? TWO PAIR FOR HIM! A nice "J" on the river for me? (BOTH players hitting EVERY HAND?) "ALL-IN" PLAYERS - TAKING HANDS DOWN? Two J's in the DECK - and BAM! Like MAGIC! I hit it!

Sure.. OK! You say! Tom! Chill! - You're hitting the cash! I should be happy right! But How come this happens every game/every hand worth anything? They try to sell this off to me and ALL ROUNDERS as "RANDOM"?

How come I always end up late in the game and find myself holding the 32 and 23 off in the Small and BB's...

and also! How come I find myself getting AA KK JJ etc.. AK , AQ like mad early and then go card dead when it COUNTS.

Then.. When I do STAY alive - The hands are always whacked! When I'm heads up! BOTH players hit the boards! Pretty hard too! Just that one or the other spikes the BIG card.

Hell - I'll stop!

Just look at the images!

Then look at past GAMES of mine here!


They just about ALL end the same! Same type of hands - Players hitting 3 of a kind like "3 of a kind" is going out of style..

OH! Tonight I watched the BIG STACK take three hands down in a row and HE ended up getting three of a kind BACK TO BACK... The other player HAD him in a BAD spot! But we all know HAVING the lead in a hand early on ONLINE - is a no no and a prescription for POKER DEATH

Ok! I'll shut up!

Take a look of pictures - DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? Look at my last hand too! (Up against the BIG STACK GUY in this story!) Wow! This guy sure did draw the LUCKY seat!

Just PAY me MY money! (Nobody gives a shit anyways!)

President Obama! Wow! What a day!

I spent the better part of the morning watching the switch in power.. Wow! I just really love to watch things like this for some reason.

The crowds, the security, Pres. Bush leaving (I'm not sure he was all that bad a man) President Obama! (kinda has a ring to it already!)

I find it odd to have a Black President (I just did not think the GOOD OLD BOY network was going to let it happen) For the record. I don't care what color your skin is.. If you are "cool" you are cool - when it comes to me. I guess all this INTERNET TRAFFIC.. changed the rules!

I liked the speech (what little I heard)Hard watching with a 5 year old running around.. I like that America has HOPE! I'll take that for now! I dunno - but I'm FEELING president Obama. (I really am!) I really think he WANTS to make the MUCH NEED change in Washington. Problem is.. Does Washington want to change - WILL THEY CHANGE?

Time will tell..

I hope a guy like President Obama stays safe! Avoids the nut jobs and gets the job done!

We need OVERSIGHT! We need people being held accountable! We need to WORK with and for each other!

Intentions are one thing.

Show me your ACTIONS! Show us!

America is READY for such change... Actually - I think we are about to start DEMANDING it..

Hey! Let's not forget! They say President Obama is a poker player! (How cool is that?) I wonder what his screen name on FULL TILT is?

I wish the President and Vice President and families ALL THE BEST! I hope and Pray for a safe United States and WORLD! I pray for peace!

God Bless AMERICA!

Prayers go out to Sen. Kennedy too!

EXPECTING QUALITY HANDS to LOSE "ONLINE POKER"

Online poker to me, based on what happens "too much" - Means "EXPECTING the hand to LOSE"

Two points I want to make here..

1. When I finally get a hand like this online.. I'm always going to end up against a POCKET PAIR..

2. I find that the BOARD brings my opponents the 3 of a kind - 95% of the time.. YES. I said 95% of the time.

90 player game - Down to about 37 players - blinds are growing - 100-200 or so..(not sure, something like that)

I get the best - (have a raise into me)

BOOM!





Then - In the BIG blind - @-3 hands later - SAME player (or ROBOT??) Raises my BIG BLIND.. (Wow - this player gets ACTION hands a LOT - He's a very lucky player?? MAYBE? Maybe it's more like a MAJOR scam)

I call to SEE what he's holding.. (I have to "see" it) plus, MY CHIPS are very LOW.. (Same pattern EVERY game UNLESS I'M IN THE HOT SEAT- My BIG BLINDS, ALWAYS get PRESSURE)

Let's SEE what Mr LUCKY TRIP Q's gets 3 hands later against my BIG BLIND...






So tell me... Am I just this UNLUCKY "everyday" - "every game" - Or am I a sucker whos being scammed...



Maybe - THIS PLAYER HERE - IN THIS GAME - "the LUCKY QQ player" the LUCKY "AA" holder in my final hand - Is nothing but a MACHINE! Robot?

I'll get into this deeper in the FORUM and in future posts... ..LINK to Xfilespoker.com HERE

Soon - I'm either playing on a NEW card delivery system - OR I'm finished with ONLINE POKER.

There is NO way this should be happening to me EVERY game or even ervery other game.

Quality poker hands should be HOLDING up a LOT more than I'm SEEING

POKER DEATH, "4" screens at a time...

I want to believe that online is the same as live when it comes to being RANDOM.

I just plain can not do it. Night after night..

I came up with the biggest annoyance I have with the online sites that I play..

The FLUSH flop(s)

The flush flops happen a little too often.. in my mind. THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY.
When they come - they have attached to them TIGHT gapped cards.. (Straight possibilities)

Now that in itself - just about drives you plumb mad.. When it's EVERY HAND..

But - LOOK. Remember, I want to believe.

I have a friend that says - PLAY MORE at same time.. 4+ games at a time. So I do that last night..

SAME OUTCOME for me. Instead of being crushed by dumb moves (players) every major hand.. on one screen .. They got me on ALL "4".

It could happen right?

Every hand.... Wild "ACTION" and more than enough "POSSIBILITIES" of DANGER.. to make your head spin. Every turn - showing the CARD that will beat you..

NOT - "MIGHT" beat you... (It's the only card your opponents need) Delivered on a dish - like an ICE CREAM SUNDAY.

Where is the MATH and %'s when it comes to these players HITTING these cards like MAGIC?

That's what it is.. "MAGIC"

PEOPLE! Poker can at times be a boring GAME.. (just not when you are playing ONLINE POKER)

Last night.. I had about 15 flops - where I carried the lead on the flop - (with two of the cards suited to a FLUSH - a FLUSH that I did not hold.) 13 times.. The Flush card hit the turn... (I have to ask.. DID WE SOMEHOW - "LOSE" the other three suites in the DECK?????) I ask because - by math, they should NOT BE HITTING AS MUCH.

Every other board - should not be HITTING Flush draws and having TIGHT GAPS...

Of course - YOU'RE saying.. THEY DO HAPPEN! It's POKER.

I agree.. I just do not think it's proper %'s and math to see it as much is all...

No matter what night.. What site (so far).. I am faced with screens of POKER DEATH.

Something is WRONG.

IF you disagree... HOW About taking your side of the DEBATE over at http:xfilespoker.com (joining the forum)

I really am very close to walking away from ALL online play - (except with small games with friends once or twice a week)

I see no point to ALWAYS LOSE.. to play the game and NEVER be allowed to TRAP another player.. to never "decide" when it's right.. against the right player - to SLOW PLAY... Doing any of these things online - WILL get you that CRUSHING low % card to hit..

The card that gives your opponents THAT dream card.. EVERY HAND.

What do you think?

I can't play POKER ONLINE anymore

Too much CHEST PAIN playing the SYSTEMS -

Nope - I try to SEE a random game .. but the same Ol game.. If I play ONE game a day or 10.. They are all the same.. 1 time in 10 - You select the HOT SEAT (can't lose)
9 times - (you are SUNK.. don't bother trying to play... ALL your quality cards will SET u UP! Never HOLD.. YOU WILL LOSE)

I get AK - FLOPS small

I get AQ - Flops - flush and st. ALL LOW cards..

I get small - med pockets - FLOPS AJQ...

ALL DAY LONG.

It's not even a game anymore.. IF this is all I get to see..

How can I keep playing on the site...

I can't prove it.. but I know it's not random.

It's insulting. It's NOT poker. It's a slot machine.. RIGGED against me. NOT unlike the POKER MACHINES at the LOCAL DINER..

I "SO much" want to see a few NEW systems (web sites) and I want the REGULATED too!

All of em! Full tilt, UB, Third Bullet, CAKE, etc,..

Spade Club 30K




Now - lookie here - Flop TRIPS ONLINE at spadeclub... (but notice the TWO diamonds - it's always an UP HILL battle online vs. live poker) - NO ACTION (How many times does this happen to you?) It happens EVERY POKER (online) GAME for me.. I guess the ROBOTS MISSED everything.. Bummer for me. Funny how this sorta thing happens WHEN it's me getting a hand.. (No action past the turn here)

I either get AA KK and watch them ALL fold to me.. OR - I get crushed by the player going HARD with 22 - hitting is DUCE on river..

In a nutshell - (Can any of us ever win online?)





Again - Q's are GREAT for me.. BUT "NO ACTION" (How about that.. They tell US there are NO patterns.. online. But let me tell you! I see a pattern - it's even easy to spot too.. If I get a major hand.. I will get little or NO action..)

It's a pattern I've seen for over 6 years now..

If I can't WIN when I got the GOODS.. The system has me crushed every game.

I always get action with Top pair and Top two pair (and end up losing the hands)
IN LIVE GAMES - These same hands GET ME PAID.. and win a good amount of time.. (huh?)

REAL XFILESPOKER kinda stuff here folks!

But in hands like these - NO ACTION!
It happens to me ALL THE TIME ONLINE.

TAKE THIS NEXT HAND! It's a BUTE!




Now - THIS ONE HERE - This one was my favorite hand in the 30K.. ALL THESE PLAYERS call the Big Blind.. I GO ALL IN! Boom! They all INSTA CALL.. Except - THE AK...(He decides to go in think tank for entire clock - THEN call... LOL) The "22" player just shoves it in! (like a stroll in the park on a warm sunny day)

I'd think the 22 and the A10off would be the ones in the tank - thinking about stuff.

Tell me - DO you or I get to "INSTA" call like this? What happens when we do?
I know what happens to me! (maybe we need to change up our tight game?)

I really believe - THIS player is NOT REAL.. to make such a call.. POSSIBLY a ROBOT.. (Player here with 22 - in a 30K game - JUST SHOVES? 2's???)

That there my friends is SUSPECT! (If you do not agree - Please EXPLAIN it to me over at the XFILESPOKER forum.. ENTER XFILESPOKER FORUM HERE - SIGN UP TODAY!

Now I ask YOU - What happens when YOU or I play a hand like 22 or JJ this way online..

WE LOSE.

I lose with AA, AK, AQ.. 88 and som one.. But this guy TAKES US ALL OUT! Calling with the DUCKS! I wish I could be so lucky online!

Or is it more than LUCK...???




And here you go!

The last hand - Well - I just HAD to see! WHY is it ONLINE games - KEEP FEEDING these HANDS action.. Why can't I make a call and see a hand LESSER than A high - OR with ME hitting a FULL HOUSE or even top pair. Why - I say because it's anything but random online.. (With me or against me here on this thought - Let me know)

Do we even BOTHER to question ONLINE POKERS fairness?

Is there a need for sites like xfilespoker?

Please - with SUGAR!JOIN THE XFILESPOKER FORUM HERE


(SORRY FOR ANY TYPOS... My COLTS are playing tonight!!!)

GO COLTS!

THE FOLLOWING is just the MOTHER SHIP (me)... THINKING out loud... Please - Add anything I'm missing.. OR your opposite thoughts on these and other matters..

Are players posting on sites like these just poor players.. or is there more to it than that? Why are there so many web sites like these?

*********************************

[i]I've never wanted or have been motivated to make a site BASED on my "20" years of LIVE poker play.... I never needed to.. For about 16+ years I was a winning LIVE poker player.. Quality cards and plays semed to PAY off.. Huh? How about that??[/i]


*********************************


THE BIG PROBLEM with a debate like this... (debating POKER)

Seems POKER is a hard NUT to crack, to disect... - So many variables...

Is the player that bad? Is the player THAT unlucky? Is the player FOOLING his/herself? Does a winning LIVE poker player mean little - when he/she jumps to ONLINE? Is the player drinking or playing tired?

I actually FIND myself PLAYING bad on these sites - to SEE outcomes.. (I have to DIG around) I have to "SEE"...

I pay attention to EVERYTHING.. WHAT I do see online (watching others action) appears to me - to be - like many say - CONTROLLED ACTION! (Boards with no gaps! Flush and st draws...ALWAYS!) Just CRAZY poker - EVERY HAND! (Is this REAL????)

I say this is NOTHING close to REAL POKER.

Poker is filled with all styles of players.. Timid - cocky -
low key - and high key... Crazy Loose and ROck TIGHT!...

This makes it a harder case to PROVE.. (But we always have our guts too)

FORUMS TOO! ALL TYPES OF PEOPLE! (some want to get into a major debate - Some are not into getting into it.. many others - just don't care... WORSE yet.. (OMG!) They think POKER is just a game... (A slot machine!) ***SOME are JUST LURKING!!!!**** (Get into the game of life LURKERS!) POST TODAY!

Is online poker a SLOT MACHINE? Is it just as simple as - IF YOU CATCH THE RIGHT SEAT - YOU'RE a WINNER???

Is ONLINE POKER run FAIR and SQUARE? (I will never stop asking this QUESTION! You can't make me!)

Can a player just BELIEVE - based on what online poker sites are telling us - giving us? (which is not much if you ask me) Givin this.. Can we really believe ONLINE IS SAFE and A TRUE RANDOM GAME?

What the hell does RANDOM (rng) even mean when talking ONLINE POKER..

**************************************

I went out with friends last night (01-02-09) - to the SLOTS at our local casino.. Was it random? I can tell you this.. It is RARE that we win when we play slots.. Combined! We lost - oh! 3,000.00 between "6" of us last night.. (and... grrrr I had to pay for my tequilla! and Miller light.) Not ONE of us ended up leaving a winner.. (is THIS FAIR??? Better YET?? IS THIS "FUN"?) NOT FOR ME SISTER!!

We WON for 15 min.. then TANKED! A few of us even hit 2nd HIGH jackpots.. WE STILL got crushed.. IS THIS REALLY RANDOM?? Or some sort of controlled RNG.. To keep the BILLS paid to all the TOP ENRON type leaders.. (DO they have to TAKE IT ALL.. EVERY TRIP) It seems controlled way more than the machines I remember playing 15 years ago.. Years ago.. I won 2/3 visits - and get this .. LEFT with MONEY! Not anymore..

Do these casinos build these HUGE fancy places ON winners? Of course not!

I bring up SLOTS - Only to make this statement.. Online poker to me... seems the same thing! I watch other players.. POOR PLAYERS.. that seem to have PICKED the right seat.. (they can't lose) I myself - notice the same thing.. (but I don't feel I'm playing better.. I play the same) I also notice PATTERNS of COLD CARDS in tourneys and SITUATIONS AT KEY - levels (blinds) where my Pocket pairs run into what seems to me -- you guessed it! CONTROLLED action.. Then the POOR "call" against my Higher hand.. Spikes the MONSTER or "4" high FLUSH..

In a nut shell.. (for me) I see it way too much. To the degree it's actually INSULTING.

********************************************************


Is ONLINE POKER the SAME for ALL players? (Does depositing MORE hard earned cash or widthdrawing more when we win - mean anything??? MANY PLAYERS SAY IT DOES... ) Why?

MAYBE THEY JUST HAVE OUR ACCOUNTS switched to "CRUSH HIM" - "NEVER LET HIM/HER WIN".. Lol.

With all the exposed SCAMS in poker - Shouldn't we at least bring the DEBATE to the FRONT JETS? Bring it all out in the open..


*******************************************

I'm in private talks with people/players over SKYPE and YAHOO.. (Why they won't POST it all here.. I'll never know) SOme of these players are members here (I guess just to be nice), some are not members .. (some do not even know how to work e-mails)-

These are Players that think ONLINE is fair.. and THEY win.. They think THIS SITE is for the BIRDS...

But HOW MUCH DO they win? HOW OFTEN? ARE THEY TELLIN THE TRUTH??? (Who knows) Can I see some proof??


*****************************************

I really Don't know.. (I need to KEEP searching for the answers)

Is it possible MOST players put "ACTION" over caring for a LEGIT GAME?

Is it possible too many players - CAN'T turn the game off.. and are affraid Sites like these WILL TAKE AWAY THEIR COCAINE FIX?

I never PLAY becasue I can't NOT be in a game.. I play poker to WIN money - To crush POOR players.. To buy nice vacations.. PERIOD. I leave a WINNER and I LEAVE early when it's NOT going well...

How about you???

THESE ARE THE TYPE OF POSTS I'M LOOKING FOR HERE!


Answer questions like the ones above!! And teach PLAYERS too! Let's teach them the PROPER bets/calls/folds to be making in NL games.. and to play POSITION.. etc.. (You get my drift right?)

Is it possible - Some players do not see the FOREST from the TREES??? Is it possible THEY just can't see they are being SCAMMED! (even the WINNERS!) Is it possible the WINNERS should be winning MORE??

I can go on and on..

Will xfilespoker be here in a YEAR?

It's UP to the answers to the questions above - and the quality of the debaters on these boards..

If you ask me... I say something is NOT right...

I'll be happy to have anyone RAIL me or to have me RAIL them (via skype etc..) to PROVE me wrong.

I'd LOVE to be wrong.

You will either believe I have thousands of hours of WINNING LIVE or you don't ... You will either agree or disagree with the RANTS above..

BUT - PLEASE!!!!

DEBATE IT!!!

Get others in here too!!!
