duck I didnt really look over the hands, I was basically telling people to lay off of grimstar. He posts here basically just looking for some sympathy after having a horrible day and gets some guys riding his ass telling him he played everry hand horribly. Sure he could have played it better, but these guys dont know these games at all and shouldnt comment in a condescending manner in BBV. Im sure your advice is good, but im alsure sure grim relaises he was playing slightly tiltish like we all do on a losing day and made some calls knowing he was beat as a result. He didnt post in HSNL, this is BBV.

This is a terrible terrible double standard. Any low stakes player who posts a bad run of cards on here gets jumped all over by almost every other poster who happens to play higher. Now when a high stakes player hits the skids we have to hold his hand and give him a tissue???

I have every sympathy for Grim and his losses as he seems to be a good guy who has the bottle to play the game to the max. But if he has a right to bitch and moan about a bad day then at least afford the same to those who might not play as high but still hurt the same when they drop a ton of buyins on the cooler.

I dont normally say anything to people who post ssnl bbv threads. Those are boring to read.

yvesaint, I hope that is scarcasm in your reply.

As for the post, I agree that it is stupid that small stakes players are giving grim bankroll and strategy advice, and I am only a low stake player myself. Im sure he is experienced enough to manage his own bankroll, and he clearly has the talent, if he made all that $$ at 10/20 FFS.

Fair enough, he may not have played the hands at all optimally, but he has been running bad and Im sure even the top NL players, will occasionally misplay hands when they are having a bad run.

To be honest, I just think its cool that grim is a high stakes player who does not have too much pride or whatever to post big pots he lost where he was behind or misplayed or whatever, which many of the other succesful HSNLers would not.

I'm still waiting for that NL$50 game, if it's on Party. Of course, it's higher than my normal NL$25 game (for which I only have 6 buyins) but heck, I can afford to drop what for me is 2 buyins for some fun, I'm sure I'll donk it back up by putting some horrendous beats on people later.

Editor's note: Yes, this is sarcasm, but no, the numbers are about right. I'm poooooor and have a huge RoR, but I've not made a single deposit since my first $25 on pokerroom.
