I am playing constantly for a year now. At start this shit boddered me, but than I managed to stay cool, and in a long time, I expierienced the same feeling again.
So.. I was playing sit n go with some people. 8 players, unlimited re-buys and wery slow structure (15 min. blinds and they go up as fallows. 5/10 10/20 15/30 20/40 25/50 and so on. I think these are pretty good condishions for a TAG like me, to grind. So, allmost everybodey else are Loose cannons with NO postflop skills. There are only 2 who had any knowlage about some concepts. One is pretty good with good postflop skills, he is also a LAG, but he can read opponents hands e.t.c. He is not terrible I guess.
Ok, so other guys are just awfull, and than I met this cocky guy. Wery bad player (lims with UTG 3x raise with 107o and shit like that. And when you ask him, why did he do it, he answers, that you can win with those cards (offcorse you can, but what are the odds ♦ ).
SO this guy is cocky. No proffesion additude. THere where situations, when he is a dealer, and somebodey has folded cards (he too), than when he takes the folders cards, he looks at them, and when we tell him, that you can't do it, he replies with this tone:'"We are having a friendly game. What are everybodey crying here. Relax!!". Or other situations, when I was bluffing, and the shortstack cought my bluff and gotten double up (he was tight, desperate in BB and the board was KQJs, and I pushed his all-in. He made a call with Q3 and got 2pair at river). After his doubleup, the asshole looked at me, and again said with his annoying voice:"Good job!!". Seriously, wtf.
Than, when like the luckbox he is, he pushed out 3 guys at 1 hand, and went in the chip lead. (I was chip leader before). So we are heads up. I got around 3000 chips, he got 9000.
Because, I dont like rely on luck, and started getting too trashy hands, I folded 5 times in a row. And than again he made a remark, that this isn't poker (the way I play).
Than I snaped, and said that he isn't that good player, to make those remarks. THat he doesen't know shit about the game, but acts like superstar. Than he said that he is tired (we were playing for 6 hours straight), and suggested, that we bolth go blindly all-in before the flop. I said, that I don't like to rely on luck, and I dont play that way. He replied that this is luck game anyway. Than I really snaped, and told him, that I leave that going blindly all-in to stupid asswipes like him. THis is skill game, and you dont know shit about it.
Than he asked me, do I think I am a pro, where I answered, that I think, I am avarage, but if we compare he as a player, and me, than I am waaay better, because he have a logic of a 12 year old.
So we are playing on, and he is going all-in with every hand pre-flop (because he didn't want to play on, and get ti all-in). I was SB and recieved 99 (blinds ar e100/200). I just call, because I know, he will go all-in, and he did, and I called It. I got double up, so now we have 6000 : 6000 . I keep playing tight. I allready have gone to 7500 : 4500 Again in SB, I recieve AQ, flat call, he pushes, I call. He shows K8. Ok flop nothing. Turn still good, and a river 8. SO I lost.
DIdn't say anything. Just stood up, and give my hand to him (offered a hand shake). And whyle SITING he shook my hand, he said:"Gues I am much better than you. Good job good player". Again with his fucking tone.
I was so angry. ussualy I handle the bad betas and the bad players, who think, that after wining 1 sit n go they are a good players, because I know, that they get reckless, and the next 7 times will lose.
But I cant shake this off. Still, when I think about this, I get really mad. I won 20 eiros and he won 120. (sadly big difference). If it would be the same situation, but I would lose to any other of the players there, I would accept it like ice cold (as usual), BUT I can't shake this off. He really got to me. More I think about it, the more I wan't to go, and kick his ass (ofcourse I won't do it. i wont fith because I lost in a poker game, but I guess what I want to say is, that I am really pissed).
I don't know why I made this post. Mabey I just wanted to tell somebodey the story from my point of view, or mabey get some good advice. ![]()
BTW where I am from, I make that 1st place winnings in one week (I'm still 17 ♦ )
