Horribad Pokerowned Players

[TheHaversham]

They're just too funny. This'll be my running thread of ridiculously bad plays by Pokerowned freeroll regs.

First up: Fancygirl1212 - I have no idea what her PO name is.
I think her fold button might be broken, but that's OK, as I've used it to my advantage on more than one occasion. Alas, once in a while she will catch her miracle, which hopefully convinces her that she's playing solid.

So here we go, I've played incredibly loose and somewhat aggressively pre-flop, whereas she is running her standard very loose, very passive game. We both start the hand with about 13-14 BB's. I know she's calling with any Ace, most Kings, every broadway hand, every pair, and likely several suited rag hands as well. The idea is to get her to think I'm bluffing, which works perfectly. I put all but 1/2 of a BB in, she can't help but call herself all-but-in with KTo vs my AKs. As planned, I get the bulk of the chips in as a 75% favorite:

Flop comes 9Q4 with two hearts, we are both committed so the flop all-in is inevitable. She once again takes the passive route, check-calling herself in (obviously can't fold, tho) with K-hi, gutshot straight draw, and backdoor flush draw, meaning she has improved on the flop. She calls it in with air and is a 70% dog.

Turn brings the Jh, and as usual, Carbon gives her the miracle she needs. We can all be thankful, as she will no doubt think she played it great because she won. River was an inconsequential 7s.

Thanks, Fancygirl1212, for being the inaugural fish in my thread.


Pro golfer Greg Norman once stated that the main difference between an amateur and a pro golfer is that the pro recognizes that he is not always going to hit his best shot, so he takes the high-percentage plays. An amateur, conversely, will always remember that ONE time they hit the green from 300 yds out with their 3-wood, and so EVERY time they get 300 out, they pull out that trusty 3-wood. One good shot will keep a duffer paying greens fees all summer. I've heard a similar analogy for surfing, in that getting up and riding ONE wave will keep even the worst surfer trying all summer long, hoping to duplicate that ONE time.

Kudos to Fancygirl1212, may the bright light of luck shine on you often.

I guess there are just some people that don't take the game to seriously. Maybe they just feel better playing that way. There will always be people that play this way. I guess you just have to learn to except it.

boy azz.. you hatin' on women today too... I hope you're rich enough to pay the people in your real life to put up with your ugliness

[helps]

LOL. There are many horribad players here on PO. I love how they keep calling with air and Pokerstars always gives them flush or straight or whatever they were hoping for. I guess commiting almost all your chips just hoping to hit it is pretty normal for most of players. Who cares about pot odds and so on..... They do what they want Hahah.

I guess there are just some people that don't take written communication too seriously. Maybe they just feel better spelling that way. There will always be people that type this way. I guess I just have to accept it.

Oh..and also, had you read the post, you might have noticed that I LOVE playing against players like this. They've paid me rather well over the years. I have accepted their chips over and over and over.

LMAO Haversham. I was about to post this correction until I scrolled down in the thread. But on point with your thread, I love Fancy. I have found the optimal way of playing against her and the other ATM's on this site and it pays dividends. In less than 3 weeks of playing (since I took a week off of freeroll poker) they have caused me to stack up and win 4 of these and cash 15. So let them come and let them suck out because sucking out is what keeps them in the game. I love the horrible players because at least they are consistent. The players I hate are the ones that are consistent winners then have those minor leaks in their game that pay them the occasional dividend. Nothing worse than getting sucked out on by A-J after you 3 or 4 bet preflop, or other overplays that I constantly see with these PO players. So, for players like Fancy, may you continue to be my ATM, and for you middle ground players, please watch a strategy video or two then come back once you've learned how to play properly (since you are also normally the ones bitching when your low equity plays lose).

i totally agree, fancy girl does not have a fold button! too funny! blackhak and i were just laughing about this in bubble chat!! she was at our table! and she donked away over 10k in chips! and thanks for the cudos azreal!!

I used to keep notes on fancygirl, but it just wasn't worth it - it's the same shit every single time she plays.

[TheHaversham]

To be completely honest, I play during the day mostly to let off steam...I'm expecting bad plays and players, and I make several bad plays myself from time to time. Picking on her is probably a bit on the mean side, but cutting others down makes me feel elevated.

That said, yes, she's bad. I was just chatting with another player about this. I generally assume that in most cases each player is playing their best, trying their hardest to win. (I got that from Barry Greenstein). When I played for a living, I never discussed bad beats. I just said, "I got knocked out," and moved on. Used to drive my friends crazy (and of course my backers wanted a bit more info, lol).

SO...fancygirl has some improving to do, but only if she's unhappy with her play. I honestly hope she doesn't improve, but if she wants to there is plenty of room. Until then, I will assume that she is trying her hardest, using what she believes is the best strategy to win. I wish her luck, and I hope she sits at my table often. And I will continue to mock and ridicule bad play in this thread, so I am not compelled to discuss beats elsewhere.
