not playing with a 4 color deck is criminal and you should be in jail for posting a video without it.


I've lost my HEM databases from several hard drive moves, I'm primarily a cash player but here are my results from this year at 1/2, I dropped down some because I have been primarily doing law school the past 2 years but I played professionally for 15 years until 2021 (2007-2021)



I'm a bit over EV this year I'll admit but probably not as much as some people in this thread

here's an article from pokerstars's site about when I won the sunday million, weirdly the english version one is down but the one on pokerstars france is still up

I am genuinely trying to help but you have an attitude where you are literally immune to good advice which is pretty funny to watch

Again, one day you may look back on this and be like wow I was really dumb when people were trying to help me and that's cool, I will laugh about it with you, but you are saying "I won so it was the right play" which is such a comically fishy thing to say that I still feel like maybe this is just a pretty funny troll

I am not a tournament player but I mean I know enough basic poker principles that if you can find a single good tournament player to say your play was good on here I'll be incredibly surprised

Also yeah you should honestly face a firing squad for not having a four color deck


less arguing about who plays less bad in a BBV thread

more arguing about which medieval torture method is appropriate for posting a live stream without 4 color deck. The Rack seems like it will get the job done.

You're not going to accept my response; so instead I'll link a video of another guy making my point for me. I'll also quote what he said in this reply so you don't have to actually go watch the video.

You're completely missing the point; and seem to think I made -EV decisions all the way to 1st place. That's not the case. As I said; knowing when to break the rules. The implied odds made it worth it; you're going to counter with "but even with full stacking the individual, you come out -EV in long run" which is because I'm not making that decision in most cases where you could average them out to see a loss; because 99% of the time, I'm not in a position to do so. You argue "But you weren't in a position to do so."; and I'm telling you I was. Not because it's +EV, but because I'm confident in my HU play should it not hit with that given stack size; on top of implied odds.

You're downplaying all the correct decisions and seem to think I lucked my way to that table. Are you under the impression I'm clearing 100-1000+ player fields by making -EV decisions?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Video Link Source:

"My point is that it shouldn't matter that much. The end result of where he places in the main event is going to be a combination of positive variance that falls in his favor plus his cumalative decision making progress and the ev he's able to gather from that. So sure; this one puts a ding in the cumulative decisions made. This is -EV that subtracts from that total, but if you look at every hand start to finish, and the EV plus or minus; he's going to be way plus. It's nearly impossible for someone to get to this stage of the event and cumulatively make -EV decisions. A negative score on one decision probably isn't going to impact the outcome of the event that much."

(above was in relation to a player folding QQ in a main event in an inappropriate time to do so)

Pull up then.

Listen; maybe you fairies need 4 colors; but I'm a man, I'd be happier if there was 1 color

"Oh look at all the fancy colors guys, wow, isn't it pretty? Let's go march in a pride parade later!"


hey man like I said I have only played professionally for nearly 20 years, who am I to argue with someone who has read almost one entire outdated book about tournament poker and has won money at a small sample of **** stakes tournaments

you're right, if it worked it was definitely the correct play and you have a bright poker future ahead of you

That's not what I said; I said it's -EV play that worked, and was correct because I was willing to handle the negative and positive of playing the hand.

You're negating all the +EV decisions to get to that point; and pretending the one play is indicative of an entire tournament.


Lol saying its an -ev play that worked is like saying you played bad and got lucky.. it "worked" because you hit your miracle. I mean, even if you hit that card you don't know you will win more, he might check the river..
Some fish called my 4b allin with 76o v my KK for 40bb and he hit a straight so I guess that was a -ev play which worked too?


by Lucy's Fur k

My thinking was -> I don't make on river, I fold, I still have 49bb and that's enough to take him on with another hand.

If I make my hand; I'll probably stack him; finish him off fairly easily thereafter.

When it did come up; Instead of jamming on river; I checked to set the trap. I think he'd have folded to a jam.

We can argue GTO and +EV until we're blue in the face, and I have my own opinions about it, but you're simply correct from the perspective you guys have. From my perspective you're sti

Ironically, you're missing the "bigger picture" which is poker is about making +ev decisions repeatedly and not "trying to hit a hand to finish him". I mean, this is standard fish shortterm thinking of "trying to hit a hand" regardless of pot odds or ev

Don't get me wrong, I totally think there are places for a -EV play to set up a future (bigger) + EV play. I get it. Especially if that -EV play is more marginal than negative.

That said, this thread seems more about playing bad and running good than anything. Not a very good long term strategy.


If any of you want to play heads up on Global Poker; by all means; we can handle this that way, but other than that; you guys are beating a dead horse.

open challenge; 3 rounds of the 3 dollar entry 1v1 (I'm not playing you for substantial amounts when I really don't care about you - if you were Doug Polk or someone valuable; I would).

Are you always a prick to ppl or just especially dont like this guy? Are you who he beat hu or something you seem to really not like this guy lol

I do agree tho no 4 color deck is atrocious although I think global doesnt let you share hh with your chosen deck
