Micro Stake MTT on Full (FU) Tilt at its best
I know this is only at 2 dollar tournament but how can this guy make the call on the flop with bottom pair and no draws. Then FU Tilt rewards him with a mircle 6 on the river. I have taken the worse beat on this site it is amazing. I guess my only mistake was to push pre and take it down then. This way this jackasses on the site don't hit anything on the flop.

What Commercials do you like better ?
Watch this years WSOP the new JackLink commercials have give me a good chuckle at times. I was wondering how these offerings stack up against the old Milaukee's Best ads and the old Party Poker ads. Which one do you like the best.

FU Tilt Poker strikes again
3 from bubble just back from break and then this. I have took all my money off about 2 weeks again after taking a weekend of one bad beat after another. I mean the fucking site is bad beat central. This was not that bad but after the weekend I had a few weeks ago I said I am done with this site and took everything off and took two weeks off to give it a rest. So today I deposit back on and the first tournament back this on the bubble. Fuck U Tilt Poker at its best.

Day job, young family and poker
Same boat here. Drive an hour to and from work. Get home between 6 and 7:30 pm most nights. I have three kids so live is very busy during the week. I agree with most of the posts here that family is more important then poker. I used to play 2 or 3 night a week mostly the 180's SnG but I was worthless at work then next day and my day job is what keeps the roof over my families head. Realized that I need to pick one night a week to play. I usually play 4 or 5 MTT on Friday or Saturday nights depending what is going with family. I usually suck it up on either Saturday or Sunday depending on what ...

Why do I always attract the DONKS at the table
This guy has been raise from the BB on almost every time. So I have BB and decide to limp thinking that he is going to raise. Sure enough he does and reraise thinking he would fold if he does not have a hand. Then this takes place. I just can't take is when someone has no idea and gets lucky. How does he call the reraise pre with this crap. Then he gets rewarded.

Got to love going out of a tournament like this
I just got moved to his table and this was my second BB. I had not done anything since getting moved this table so not sure when he call other then he has chips and does not care. Looking at his stats on OPR I guess he does not care. Still leave a really bad feeling in ur mouth. Especially when earlier I was called by BB in FT with K7 off against my AK suite all in pre for over 2500k with 120-240 blinds and the 7 flops. gg me Feel better now but I hate going out of tournament like this.

Should I have pushed pre?
I wanted a double up to make run into money as we where about 20 from money bubble. Guy utg has been very loose so I thought he was just trying to seal the blinds and antes. After the flop I am 4 flush and wanting him to bet so I could push. I thought with my image at the table if I push on flop he would have folded. I think maybe I should have just pushed preflop and taken it down then and picked better spot to double up. Adviced welcomed.

Re:Home Poker League - End of year Tournament
I used to play in a league that did the same thing expect we did not give away a seat we did a free roll for where each months winner got a seat and then the top point getters also got in. We assigned 100 per point so at if you have 224 points you started with 22400 in chips. It worked out good for us. I think the short stack and the end of the year had 12K starting stack and the chip leader had about 32K.

Re(2): Debate About "Bet Pot" Button...
I agee 100% as well. My favorite play on the sites with the bet pot button is when someone limps and on a flop of say 3, 6, 9 rainbow it is bet pot and they show down A K or A Q and lose to some with a middle pocket pair. UB is the worst for this I think in first blind level with 5 / 10 blinds you will see a lot of pots over 1000 chips just becase everyone keep hitting that button.

Re(2): What does he got and what do you do?
I would say he has K with small kicker and his hits his 2 pair on the river. Also I would bet that K trash where suited.
