Re: The Worst Strategy You\'ve Overheard at a Table
Not any live ones I can think of, but I recently encountered something like this at a $1 SNG on pokerstars.
It's near the bubble and I just start stealing like crazy because I have the chip lead. This is basically the conversation after some tight-nit doubled up from 5BB to 10BB w/ 33 vs my raggedy overcards.
Donk: I've been waiting all day to trap you.
Me: GJ you're awesome at winning coinflips.
Donk: LOL! I was a 55-45 favorite man.
Me: Big deal, 55-45 might as well be 50-50.
Donk: Haha, I'm laughing because you think 55-45 is the same as a 50-50.
Anyway, what followed was that I continued to play aggressive and he won at least 3 more coinflips in the next few hands where he may have been a slight favorite.
Donk: Wow you're so bad, everyone knows you have nothing and we can just wait all day to take the edges you give us.
On another table, I busted him out after pushing A-rag in the SB and he called w/ 88 and lost. He was furious about how he had me dominated and blah blah.
The conversation was way funnier and I was LoL'ing even harder when I sharkscoped him and found he had played some absurd amount of $1 SNGs for a total profit of $8000.
