a year or so back i was having problems with the wireless router in my house. i was playing 10/20 online and a 5 way pot that was capped preflop. i flopped the nut straight with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] with the nut flush draw, i put in the first bet(i coldcapped out of the BB i believe), it was raised and 3bet to me, i lost connection(i was out of disconnect protects b/c i had lost connection a ton that session and this happend before i could reset them)and my hand was folded. i don't know exactly what the final pot was, but i threw my laptop after that and had to purchase a new one. second PT database i had lost in 3 months, at the time. i feel your pain. i also never let my disconnect protects run out again. ever. i also bought a new router right after that.

Geez man, that's terrible. Any chance the board paired giving someone a better hand? Or does that only happen when you stay in?

I've had my share of computer problems. Got myself a super-duper computer about six months back. I reckon it has nearly paid for itself. I'm starting to think my connection isn't too super. I'll be looking into this if I want to play higher stakes.

sure! i told myself for weeks it double paired. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] unfortunately part of the problem with the disconnect was never seeing the results. seemed like i noticed one player's balance being higher. don't know why i didn't ask what happend and tell what i held. guess i'm just not a whiner like that...okay i really am. i was on my cell phone two seconds later.

Just a few words. Thanks to a lot of the way more experienced posters here, my LLHE game has really improved and my live winning sessions are increasing quite a bit. Starting to recognize more of my mistakes as well.

Muchos Gracias kidz

Woh, for the first time in months I'm running at +8.8 BB/100 over a thousand hands. I actually know how to play this game. Amazing.

Borgata 10-20, 6 handed.

Hero is UTG with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero calls, three folds, small blind raises, big blind raises, hero caps, all call.
K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Turn 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] SB checks, BB bets, hero calls, SB calls.

i need some good karma:

2/5NL

1st hand, just sat down at the new indian casino in my area:

limpers to me in the BB with 33, i check.

flop: 993r

i bet pot, one caller directly to my left.

turn: 9

i bet pot, caller calls

river: some rag

i check, he bets pot, i call

"Quads on Ten!"

doh.


i limp A4 in EMP, callers.

flop: A49

dude donks, i raise, he calls.

turn: T

dude goes all in, i call.

he shows 99

doh.

i get red aces on the button. i've had AK/AQ/AJ(i.e. PFR hands)a bunch in this orbit. i've raised them, missed the flop and eventually folded before showdown in basically all cases. i raise to $22 straight into 6 limpers, all fold.

doh.

i get QTs OTB. a LAG raises to $21 straight , 3 callers to me, i call, sb calls, bb folds.

Flop: AAQ w/two diamonds

checked to me, i bet 2/3 pot, sb calls, all fold.

Turn: Q

he checks, i check.

River: K

he bets pot, i call. he shows A5.

these were all in the first hour. i was getting crushed. i sat for about 5 more hours, played about two hands and then got doubled up and picked up a couple pots so i finished down, but not near where i was...i still hate poker, though. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
