Hello and welcome to the arena!

Previous High Stakes thread: *** September 2024 High Stakes Thread **...

♠: ♥ ♣: ♦:

We generally post ~200bb+ pots, but if there's an interesting hand/showdown, or if there's not much action feel free to post smaller ones.

Posting hands

How to post CoinPoker hands:

Click on hand #number in replayer.

Copy text and remove ante part of first row in hh:

[code]Poker Hand #72306164: Omaha Pot Limit (200/400 ante 80) 2023/04/12 15:51:58 GMT[/code]

Add - after parenthesis. Line should read:

[code]Poker Hand #72306164: Omaha Pot Limit (200/400) - 2023/04/12 15:51:58 GMT[/code]

This works until someone has a 7 figure stack, then you need to edit any number over one mega.

paste hh https://pokeit.co/convert/

The converted hand will say it's from GG, you may edit this too.

For the OCD inclined, search and replace § with $.

Post your nice hand here!

♣:

Please use the following options for converting hands:

Converter from Pokeit https://pokeit.co/convert/ with wide variety of supported games, multiple hand conversion, etc.

Another converter: http://www.railhand.com

Just paste your hand history, convert, copy generated code and paste in this thread.

If you want to post 2-7 TD hands: http://www.feralcowpoker.com.

Set it to "Two Plus Two - textonly" output, and show results and player names.

Gravy you're embarrassing yourself man.

Eelis has children, travels the world playing sports with mates and seems to be well liked by everyone. You are trying to validate yourself in comparison by criticizing his BB def freq, why not compare yourself to others overall instead of focusing on the one small area you seem to derive self worth from.

"there's more to life than poker"

This is arguable the most ironic post out of the whole thread from what you threw out as a streamer. lol

LOL, average kaki stream:

- railing some table/watching some hand someone played
- sees something that might be a fraction of a fraction of a bb off of nandez' cloud sims as if those are the end all be all godsend of poker
- grimaces, loads up plotrainer, finds a comparable node even if a different board entirely
- plugs in a "close enough" hand for comparison
- -0.09bb
- grimaces, "buncha ****ing toilet regs honestly bruv, like look at a sim for once in your life"
- so anyways chat, I am superior in all male categories and why would I clean my room when I have a wife

that being said, I think I'm enough beyond braindead to know it's played up a bit for the character and ngl it is the most entertaining plo content has been in long time, all the rest of it is either garbage quality play or super boring nitty play trying to shill a course/site

I think that every poker player has this kind of mental 'break-down' moments every once in a while (oftentimes, not publicly). Online poker is a tough environment. Regardless, thank you Grazvydas for your contribution to this thread. For me personally, it was both inspiring and insightful (not only poker-wise). Re-iterating theme that great achievements require lots of pain and sacrifice.

On behalf of most readers in here, I wanna say that we appreciate you. Thanks man.

I personally think the spirit of competition can being out the best in the competitors, but also the worst; or perhaps I'm just projecting my own tendencies. And (presumably) bondurant pbb derive a lot of his identity from being a world class PLO reg, and when the SS that EEE posted, which is highly misleading in absence of the context of the wider conversation, that displaces a integral part of Bondurant's perceived identity, should anyone be surprised that he REACTED the way he did? Did he go a step too far? Probably.

If EEE is still keen to play 3h/4h; and Bondurant HU, why not split the volume of the challenge between the two formats where each competitor get to press advantage on their "home turf". You can also incorporate prop bets (3:1 odds) or bb spots into each of the respective formats as well.

Yes, but not a high priority for me, my player pool is usually ~10 of the same regs and a fish.

I don't think EEE27 is coming back with anything tangible that could make him look smart in this situation.

He got used to me backing down from conversation, because that's the only thing that he likes to do, and not actually come meet me at cards.

I think PLO is slightly slower right now, so if I would full time for next 12 months, I think I would add only like 10% to my BR, or even less. So I think it's around time for me to find something else to do, and maybe rest for a year, and then maybe try to open some businesses, where I wouldn't need to work for an "hourly" rate (even though it's high rate) and where the growth could be more progressive and wouldn't cap out at a certain point.

You have been very condescending to me in the past. You’ve berated me on countless occasions. If you can’t take it, don’t give it

Did this mouthbreather ever identify himself ?? Clearly you struck a cord amongst a friend group as a handful of them came in here all butthurt

An organized 3-4 handed match seems like the last thing ppl would agree to. Thats a shitload of trust to have in people that clearly have some relationship. Wild that guy pulled up 5yr old msg's to make it out like you punked out and not reading the rest of the convo where he turns down being offered 3-1 hu.

Fins are okey. All I am saying that it would come back full circle of EEE27 telling how good he is at live tables and that he is better. So it's fair for me to call it out.

Him sending a screen shot of me refusing to play 3 handed with Venividi challenge is misleading, because just a few messages before/after he refused an actual hu match for stakes/hands/odds offer. (I couldn't have played Venividi because we were having overlapping coaches at that time, so it wouldn't be fair, and Venividi and all his friends well knew I would be a favorite, so idk why he would even sign up for that)

Objective of mine is simple. Poker should be viewed as a competitive sport and I don't want to have any regrets not playing vs the best when I'm calling my last day in this sport.

They have these 9-handed tables on ACR, where buy in/rebuy is 10bb deep, but for you to be able to reset the stack you need to sit out for 7 days straight.

So it wasn't accurately reported that I won it in 7 day period. It took me a few months to run it up.

After you run up 1m stack and want to reset it, you have 2 options: (1) sit out for 7 days (2) go play omaha4rollz hu and he will reset it for you.
