    Default Anyone else being told "ship it" a lot lately

    I guess I'm kinda past the "ship it" line. Of course had someone say it yesterday when they had pocket AA over my KK, and that kinda set me on tilt cause it happened like 3 times that day.
    Anyway, this guy was like 76/11 over about 100 hands. Obviously just playing for fun, thought it was funny...

    Someone did that to me and totally tilted me because he played the hand terribly, sucked out and won.

    Was omaha, so I think I had top pair+gutshot+NFD, he had middle pair and hit a 2 pair on the river, was 20/80 or something (which is huge).

    I guess I get a little nervous when I raise preflop and get two flat calls and then a bet on flop and another flat call. I find myself raising into a set a lot...wrong play? Plus I've been getting really really cold cards lately, so I'm probably playing a little more passive (although I still manage to push at the wrong times )

    If peoples chat can actually tilt you ^ is a good idea. Then again you really need to look into how easily you're letting people get you off your game.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    What's there to be afraid of on that flop? You are playing against terrible players that won't fold and will likely draw to anything. Raise that shit and hope that someone shoves over top of you on the flop.

    Ya turning off chat isn't a bad idea. Honestly I don't tilt very easily, that was just a bad bad day and I just said nh, and logged off after about two more hands, and took the next day and a half off. Can't wait to play monday though!

    I usually just smile to myself and quietly take their chips.

    Maybe I'm just more aggressive in my pursuit to be balla.

    Ya I definitely got some work to do before I get to balla status. I'm still on the JV baller squad. But I'll get there...

    we have a guy here at FTR that will leave you with $.10 and tell you to ...

    "Keep Da Change"

    i think that's classic, personally.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    It's diabolical, but if a particular statement will get your opponents to tilt, then use it.

    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from
    I have no idea what people are telling me 'cause chat is always off...

    ...that way I can still snap and not have to listen to they reply -- truly a monologue of smack talk
