Online Poker Tournament Rankings

I never post these, but these two were particularly sick as they were in large field Sunday tourneys, occurred close to the money in one case and happened within two minutes of each other on two different sites. FTP tourney is 2K FTP (points) tourney where I had built a 13K stack with the blinds at 80/160 only to lose two races before that hand to get down to 4K and the Stars tourney is the Sunday 1/4 million, which I finally collected my first cash on in 20+ tries last week. Both hands seem incredibly

I might raise more pre and give serious consideration that I might be beat with the minraise post, especially since the board is not that draw heavy. His range on the flop is probably something like QQ-KK, 33, 55, 88 and maybe 64s or JJ. Still, in a large field donkfest like this, I don't see myself getting away, simply because you're going to run into a very bad calibur of player that is probably worse than even this middle of the road range. Against a known thinking player/regular, I might

He made a trash play and got lucky... what else are you going to do here with 123456789 outs? I stack off every time here and bet flop smaller to induce more action since I'm favored against many combinations of made hands/draws. Fabrice Soulier is only a moderately good player at Hold'em and is likely less than break even at PLO, so I'm not surprised at this. Sick fade, ul, gg, etc.

^^^^ This hand (JJxx vs. busted draw) is much more interesting that the original post.

Agree, all the sites need badly to slap some guarantees on these tourneys, get me back to playing them, because they were crazy profitable. Also, stop moving all the good PLO tourneys/structures to the morning on the East Coast. I get that Euros play more Omaha, but those donks don't put out the numbers to rival what the old low-limit tourneys used to get in primetime. Time change + guarantees should be sufficient to maximize rake and fishies.

What was it like when you jammed your head up your own ass? Did Phil Hellmuth tell you the story of when he jammed his head up his own ass and if so, did it hurt?

Anyone who took offense at those comments simply doesn't get it, despite a clear explanation from Alex. Hell of a win, man, you'll get them next time.

I would defend this comment to the death for two reasons: A. The comment was obviously directed at Constant Rijkenberg. B. Anyone who saw 5 minutes of Rijkenberg play knew that he was, in fact, a monkey (read as: shitty player). In other cases, I would dismiss this as classless youth, but Rijkenberg was awful and anyone at that table would agree. He just ran like a Kenyan today to win it, obv.

I can't see how this line is profitable, it reeks of float to bluff to me... I would call river with a crazy wide range of single spades and even a lot of kings. I do like Delux's line here, he repped the c-bet bluff very well. Against many lesser players, yes I take Phildo's line, but not against a solid/thinker, it just seems like a losing proposition to me.

No one deserves it more, plain and simple. Assassinato FTW, NOW! GLGLGL, you're so due for some final table cardracking.
