Post by: nirvana on February 18, 2009, 12:26:53 AM
If you crash out of a tourney with a beat story you can rely on our leader to be proper concerned = enjoy :-)

I love the way the pot went from 90k to 100k in 90 seconds in Micks words.

3 months later, Micky is probably describing it as a 5 million pot!

To be fair I've never seen The Worm so gutted as he was that day.. Obv needed a result.

[ ]  Micky hates telling you his bad beat stories

[ ]  Micky loves to hear yours

Brummies have such a musical accent - it really helps enliven the bad beat story.

Surely with his experience he should know to keep such things to himself.

LOL

Something tells me you have never been to a major tournament and sat at the bar for an hour or so. You would need earplugs not to hear 100 bad beat stories, Micky is not unique.

lol why, he likes a good moan like the rest of us. Its just nice to hear the insincere comforting by fellow players after youve took a massive beat. This was in a £3k BI comp and id be having a good old moan to. Go Mickey

No you are certainly correct i've never even played live yet.

Really i'm surprised ( maybe i shouldn't be ).

Just thought that if you had played for as long as Mickey had you'd be immune to telling bad beat stories by now.

The only player I know who doesn't really tell bad beat stories is Golden Boy Thew.

That's probably because he hasn't suffered any yet.

your forgetting that I for instance will play more MTT every single week than mickey will play in one year. Ive got probably 400x more experience of taking beats than mickey. Online its easy. Get a beer, go on msn and moan a little jokingly with your muckers. Live is different, There is nothing else to do and is 10x more crushing to lose a huge pot to a beat as you can see the player smiling and stacking your chips. Plus your in the surrounding of amimals most of the time. Not very pleasant at all.

Yes point taken.

I suppose when i sample the live arena i will see for myself.

Guess i've got an idillic vision of well behaved polite and courteous people taking part.

Bad beats are always worse when you've just that moment got knocked out of a big tournament in a big pot

An hour later he might have been a bit more casual

Mickey = awesome

its always so gutting, live beats (or even standard knockouts) are so much harder to take.

everyone always needs a few minutes to moan/disappear, its just part of getting over it. friends who have to listen generally just accept its part of the job description!

5 minutes later mickey will have been chirpy again.

I lol'd at Flushys attempt to appear interested! Great effort I thought, and a very fetching scarf too!!

This is the point I think - Mickey having a moan is very understandable - just love Flushy's concern, little mouth movement & then he moves on so quick to all around him - like we all do when we hear a beat tale


Poke, don't be put off playing live - lots of very decent people playing live imo - natch they all want yr money but are decent all the same

The funny thing about this video is we had just both been knocked out, i didn't really care to tell the tale, Mickey clearly did!

I love the leg-end but we both know at the end of the day i don't care about his exit and it makes no difference to him in the long run.
