Question by Nick T: Online Poker Is Depressing Me-HELP?
right i dont know where to start this, i think i just want some one to piss and moan to as knowone will listen to my bad beat stories.
but the truth is everytime i bust out a tourney or lose my roll on cash i feel like slitting my wrists, the pain in my stomach is getting unbearable.
first off i know what my problem is and why im losing but i just cant seem to do anything about it, i know im a good player. i play small tourneys and no more than 50c-1 cash, at these levels i know im in the top 5% of the people playing them.
what keeps happening to me lately is im making the money in tourneys, getting there with a good stack then some how blow it all before the final table and the decent payout, it allways seem to go the same way, i bust out with 10 10 to some idiot with A6, or AK against an idiot with 22. then i take the money iv won and blow it in the online casino cos im so pissed at what just happened.
i know everyone complain about bad beats and online pokers fixed, which i dont believe. but i truly believe my luck runs worse than the average man. the amount of times i run into AA with KK is unbelieveable, or runner runner flush and straights when i flop a set is unreal.
now for those of you who are thinking you just crap at poker and you dont know how to play heres my stratagy for tourneys. you tell me if its wrong and needs changing or if i am just the most unluckest person alive.
1. early, i play big hands, pairs and suited connector, but try and get in cheap and win lots of small pots rather than risk my whole stack trying to win a big pot. my belief is that even if you are a 4-1 fav pre flop, even with good luck over a tourney that last 5-6 hours if you play big pots all the time eventualy u get beat. i try not to put my whole stack in early on without having the stone cold nuts, and preflop with AA or KK only and even then reluctantly.
2. middle tourney, i usualy start to tighten up, playing big hands only. i now try and build a very tight image so that as we get to the later stages i have a better chance at stealing so i dont blind out if i dont get any decent hands.
3. late in tourney, in the money. i will now try and steal blinds in late possition, no all the time but enought to keep my stack from dropping to much, i play only big hands, i still try not to play massive pots, im quite happy with small pot, building slowly with little risk to my stack.
4. Final table. what ever happens happens. i try and play the players at the table and win the game, i dont play for 5th or 6th i want 1st and will try everyting i can.
Now i have never read a poker book or had any advice from others, this is what i have believe to be the best way to play tourneys. This stratagy seem to work, i can honestly say almost all the time i am leading when the money goes in and get butt fooked, and once i do i go on tilt and just blow my bank roll in the casino.
please please please if there are any poker pros out there that cant tell me if my stratagy is the reason i just cant get into the big payday or is my stratagy right and im just one unlucky bas tard.
or you can just tell me to get a life im not bother theres nothing u can say that will make me feel worse than the badbeat i suffed on the bubble of final table tonight.

Answer by LegFuJohnson
Not sure what to say but to offer you some cheese with your whine.
You realize that the idiot with 22 is favored pre-flop over your AK, right?
Being smart with your money is part of being a good player, so if you are just blowing your winnings in the on-line casino, then I have a hard time believing you are any good.
But if you are only playing small tourneys, then you should have no problem getting it in early with good hands. If you lose, you lose, start another one. If you win, you’ve got a big stack and can push around these people that you claim are so much worse than you.
In the middle you have to be more aggressive because people are being tight, just trying to squeak into the money. don’t worry about trying to build an image, at the small stakes people aren’t noticing that stuff.
But really, if you are just going to believe that you have worse luck than everyone else, then stop playing.

Question by cancan: What do you think of my multi cultural characters for my story ?
Ok so I want to make a story and my main characters are multi cultural.Even though it’s set in a fictional world it’s still somewhat based on real races.
My main character is like an Indian girl, she wants to be a honorable warrior despite that in her tribe only boys can be warriors, theres more to her than just that cliche line i just said but I am trying to make it short, anyways her personality is pretty cliche, the one who never gives up,really believes she can accomplish her dream and beats the supposed bad guys up,later she develops more.
Another character is like a black guy, he comes from a African/buddist tribe. He had a little brother who dreamed of becoming a powerful knight(their is a medieval city in this fictional world too) But the big brother never supported him, and told him that it’s very unlikely that will happen becuase one he comes from this tribe and isn’t raised like warriors are, and two the chances of accomplishing your dreams are low, but later his..
.little brother dies when he picked a fight with someone. He feels remorse for not supporting him and decides to carry on his dream, and in the beginning of the story he already came close to accomplishing this dream but when he met the Indian girl, ahh i have to cut it here that isn’t important right now. anyways his personality is manly, kinda grumpy,yet cool,but his machoness is used as a joke allot of times in my story,anyways hes really strong too, and a good fighter.
Another character is like some nerdy white boy from a medieval village, who reads allot of books and stumbles on one about a legend of a great strong hero who is good at fighting and stuff, and he wants to be like him.When he meets the girl and the guy from before(who are friends by now) he looks up to them and sees them as brave heroes,he is inspired by them to train and be like the strong hero he always wanted to be..
but later throughout the story he grows to be annoyed by their immature behavior, and realizes that they do allot of unnecessary fighting and that being a strong brave fighter isn’t as cool as he thought it was. later in the story he manages to become a very powerful person through using his smarts, he doesn’t solve his problems through fighting and strength, he plans everything and uses his knowledge from books.
The two first characters i described learn from him, and use another approach to solve problems rather then just strength all the time(i wanted to break the cliche of the nerdy one learning from the strong brave ones and becomeing a strong fighter)….
I plan to make more main characters but i look back at these and thought that maybe these characters would come off as racist. Becuase i made the Indian girl one be brave,sweet determined and strong, and the black guy brave,strong,grumpy,and determined and the white one nerdy,and smart but later he over shadows the other two and the other two learn from him.
Do you think it would somehow come off as racist in any way ? Please be honest.
and if it does how do you think i should fix it ?
Best answer:
Answer by Maziana
Not bad. Interesting. I think it could be percieved as racist because the non-white people are the ones who fight, but then again, almost anything with multi-racial characters could be percieved as racist by somebody. I’d say stick with it, although maybe give them some traits that make the characters less cliche.
