Once again time to vomit out of pure disgust. :f_eek:

Had I only shoved the flop... donkey would have paid with its trash and my EV-line wouldn't have suffered. :@

Donk-betting BB donkey was a typical loose-passive opponent (33/8)... Such a disgusting guy... I can barely stand it... It is so tilting...

I thought shoving the flop would have been too much of an overbet and therefore I decided to go for a raise in order to set up the perfect pot size for a turn shove... If I raise the flop instead of shoving I guess I should have raised bigger to ~500 or so - giving the donkey worse odds to call - but I guess against this donkey it would definitely not have made any difference...

On the turn I was like: "Hey dealer, did anybody ask you to deal one of the three ugliest cards that were left in your deck?"

I was disgusted... What should I have done on the turn? c/f against this nasty donkey? I mean, the donkey's line with donk/call on the flop is almost screaming: "I have a flush or a straight draw"... Both got there on the turn... Hands like these make me so mad and let me lose all my motivation to continue playing for a whole day at least...

Had I only shoved the flop... :@

Every hart card that didn’t paired the board would be ugly against a player like him, but raising a little bit more on the flop would be better. Then we don’t need to shove almost pot size and even then, it’s possible he would call with worse and with a decent amount of full house possibilities as back up I don’t think a shove against a passive player is to bad here.

Cheers,

Hi Bruno.

I have read this and one other hand you posted. I decided not to comment on this hand, mainly because I can add little to SDKs reponse, but also because your preamble is dripping with the skewed emotion of a seething 'entitlement tilted' player. You need to remove such emotion for you mindset. Poker is only maths, only ever maths.

I also did not comment on the other hand you posted because, despite you including a spoiler, you revealed that villain 'got there' in the similiary lengthy and furious preamble. Its far better not to include results at all. This will allow a 'cleaner' and more detailed analysis. I would also suggest that you use player blogs to learn what strategies other players use to goal set and improve in this wonderful game, rather that as yet another outlet for your 'table rage' bad beat stories.

It seems you have much to do to combat your unhelpful mindset at the table. I wish you well with calming your tendencey to tilt, and with your other endevours in poker.

Thank you man for your friendly post, I appreciate it. You are certainly true, tilt is by far my biggest problem in poker. I simply find that these donkeys in their nasti- and braindeadness are so extremely sickening - I cannot bear it...

If it wasn't for folk putting all their money into a pot with one chance in twenty one of winning (as in the hand you posted in prim's blog), there would be far less money to win in poker. Don't let the bad beats grind you down sir.
