*** October 2024 High Stakes Thread ***

Yeah you are right. It's just me talking to myself. I apologize for people that didn't want to see this. I am out for now.

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

When berri and sanita resume?

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.

We know americans dont get the best education but surely you learn how to read, no?

you can just say no...

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.

I mean if i was as good as grasv i'd probably want some respect put on my name as well considering how much work and effort he probably put into becoming that good..

same reason doctors get so cranky when they are not addressed as Doctor or have that MD in their name

LrsLzk

graz, do you use a hud while playing?

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.

after that last hand jasamgale's auto reload failed and he quit that table with womencantdrive having 600bbs :(
They are playing a second table where stacks are more even.

If you set the bar of looking smart, I think I am among geniuses.

How many hours of grind and study do you average per month?

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.

When the vodkas result in your not being able to tell I wasn't quoting you

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 make up a decent portion of the highstakes plo community, I've personnaly only had positive interactions with them through the years.

hahaha all the high stakes PLO guys showing up and fighting, feels like 2008 2p2

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)
