Git gud you fucking scrub nigger

>He thought he could make money in a casino
Nigga

Tell me what you would do then
I get dealt pocket 9's in middle position, bb straddles and makes it 5, I call person to my right calls, we go four way to the flop k j 9, lb makes it 25, call, i make it 50, guy to my left folds, turn comes a k, lb makes it 50, person to my right calls, i go all in, they call, dude had K 9 off suit
Fuck this game

Better than day trading.

in poker you can have an edge but the whole reason I haven't played in forever is because I've been building skills in things that can add value to other people and just felt like playing tonight as exercise in observing how others play but this is ridiculous

If you flop the set you shove everybody off dude, you don't sit there letting other people draw for free

>Better than day trading.
Not true. If you're smart you can actually make money day trading.

This you had to go big on flop. Still k9 if dumb might hero call and u lose anyways lol

Raised preflop... k9 would of folded.
You did it to yourself wanting to see a cheap flop allowing others in. Go play limit.

I guess yall are right I'm pretty rusty right now but still
And what if they decided to float to the turn and raise then

didn't know helmuth was browsing Zig Forums
should've known after his vechain partnership

you went all in and got rekt or what
tell the whole story if you're goyna make a fucking thread OP

Look here
I shoved on the turn cause I got a full house and figured somebody improved to trips

>first hand I play in like 6 months
that was your problem there. you were rusty, eager to see a big win after a period of dormancy. i've probably made the same mistake before a couple times. it's a common mistake of getting excited about your boat and not see the potential of someone having a bigger one.

How good are yall

I thought about it but I still win in the long run given the hands that could've beat mine then

google gambler's ruin du Lauch

I almost became a pro poker player in 2003. I won and placed in a few big tournaments but about 75% of my all in loses were bad beats. Those bad beats, drugs and cheating on my ex wife almost ruined my life so I started selling then using oxy and fully ruined my life. Poker is 50% luck 25% math and skill and 25% personality. I haven't played live poker in 10 years.

raise pre, raise bigger on flop, ez turn jam.

I got rekt for over 10 grand in a full house over full house hand once. Took me years to recover. Still gamble degenerately, can’t stop

You did everything right except raising before the flop or after the flop. If you'd gone all in before the flop potentially you'd have taken the pot. But other then that you were fucked. After the flop Ks wouldn't have folded.

Alright doing that now
What do you guys do nowadays
Noted for if I play again in the future. Where do you get your info Is two plus two still active?

the mistake was going all in so late instead of just keeping bets around the 25 to 50 range. lb was the one who raised it to 25, then you raise it to 50. at that point it's clear both of you are holding good cards and not just bluffing. you risked all 200, even though you knew it was possible someone had better boat. i would have done the same thing but probably would not have gone all in. i would not have folded at the 25 raise, but i don't think i would have raised to 50 either. math was the most important factor in this situation. i'm a pretty average player so take this with grain of salt.

like i said, you got too eager, you thought you got a huge lucky hand right after sitting down. you're not the first person to get fucked on the river by someone luckier. it just sucks you had to blow 200 on it.

based on what you said it was clear that lb was in control the entire time, even if it turns out he's a novice or shittier player than you. most normal people would think a k9 two pair is great and stick around to see more.

bad beat stories are painfully boring

Alright whenever it is I play again if I do ill play more aggressive. Be better if I could use a bot or something though like that liberatus shit

learn what bankroll management is. if you cant afford to lose 200 bucks, you shouldnt be playing 2nl tables

This is the most common way I see guys get cucked. I do not take a full house seriously unless I have the top set, otherwise I'm value betting and probing my opponent to see if he's showing strength

If you're playing NLH to r/f a made FH, find another gamble/hobby. Sure in PLO you need to be more aware when you're not holding the nut FH but in Hold'em, there's no need to be scared.

As said, if you're using a good bankroll management, you shouldnt feel the need to play like a bitch.

So what do you say user, all-in every time? I would think that's contingent on your buy-in. If I'm that other guy I'm not going all in with the weak FH with my kid's college savings.

dont listen to this fucking retard the basic logic in poker is understand what range people are playing based on action, see what hands are beating you and what hands lose to you, and understand whats the better bet size to make people with worst hands call you. if you shove you either get folds or calls from better hands. dont listen to this clown hes a losing player.

you played it ok since only KJ K9 wouldnt be beating you, assuming people would 3bet JJ KK. its poker dude, youre not gonna win every hand. learn about bankroll management and play stakes where you can afford to lose your buy in

yall are right and I knew that going but cognitive dissonance. I was telling myself ill just play for 30 minutes and observe the behavior of the players but here I am bitcing about a bad beat on Zig Forums. What percent do you allocate to your bankroll and how many buy ins for cash games do you keep in there

200 isn't a lot but it's too much to risk just to win a pot that sounds like it was around 80 minus what op put in. risk/reward. always factor your chips as well so as not to think the pot is bigger than it actually is. the pot in this case was small and he fucked up by over-betting too late.

I assumed they would call so total I stood to profit 400 and risked my 200

iirc the times i actually won a lot, it was because i was be conservative and played for several hours. for example i would not bet 2x the pot to win the pot and risk getting called and bad-beat. for example if the pot was 100 total of the other players chips i would bet a max of 50. i wouldn't go all in with a 300 stack to win 100 and risk getting btfo. i did that once when i was up 400 and lost it all on a bad beat similar to what you just experienced. ended up driving home at 4am and also so sleepy i swerved and blew a tire. one of the worst nights of my life but what i'm saying is, measure risk/reward. same thing with stocks. i'm not going to risk losing $1500 just to make $200 on an options trade.

>calls from better hands

Or speculators with 2-pair. If you baby bet your set you're giving the guy with 2-pair a chance to draw and beat you, that eats into your EV. I was just giving a generalized response, if you go all-in with a set yes, 2-pair might call you, and you're getting great odds for the price if so. If you aren't betting an appropriate amount he gets to see the turn and river and ultimately beat your hand.

yeah but that's if they call AND you win. as someone else said, you didn't have to the top boat. so it was a risky move to go all in and potentially get a bad beat which was what happened unfortunately. when i played conservatively i would never go all in if the only other player had more chips than me. if it makes you feel better, go browse /smg/ where people are losing thousands of dollars based on split-second decisions. there's one guy who is currently down $100k just from what happened today.

Also JJ or KK raise pre, no? This guy limped in
