You said you would ignore owning players like Pab, yet you try and do the same yourself, this is the point I was making.

[  ] I know you well
[  ] Word on the grapevine is that you are good
[X] From players who have played with you/know your game
[X] soul read

now re-read the entire sentence and realise it has very little to do with Pab, even less to do with me owning Pab.

Without wanting to sound bitter - if I was you - id ignoring 'owning' legends like Pab  and go for the value on your left (mr JJ!!!!!).

the OP - would know what this means. I played 2 hands with Pab all day (as much as I remember), that certainly isnt the actions of a man trying to 'own' someone.

Like I said above, I had no desire to own pab - i genuinely believed that he wouldnt call and leave himself with 6k -it was my thoughts - i went with it - i was wrong - thats the game.

Just out of interest, as you are absolutely certain that I was trying to own him, can you tell me how the action panned out? what the board read and how the betting went? You will obviously know this if you were so certain i was trying to 'own him' - especially as I didnt even show my hand and therefore you are 100% reliant on someone else telling you what I held.

its good to see that you form your own opinions about people prior to casting judgement. It shows a real maturity! Ive heard that the grapevine is a wonderful place to pick up a fountain of knowledge about everything in life. Well done buddy - you keep believing everything your friends tell you! Dont worry about finding things out for yourself.

Im not going to sit here and defend my game - i think given my low volume I do OK, and I am happy with that. I have little desire to be a professional poker player. I enjoy it as a past time, I am very competitive and I like to win. I take losing very badly. Anyone that actually knows me (including some of your acquaintances) will tell you that I am a very different person at the table than I am away from it!

Japes.

Ok my bad, I guess that you must have been value betting the river vs Pab which is why you snap mucked. I saw the hand, not that I remember exact amounts but I am pretty sure you check called flop, lead turn and lead river.

You say you only played two hands vs Pab but the OP also said he wanted to own Pab in one hand, just because you only played 2 hands vs him doesn't mean you didnt want to try and own him.

I have met you before, I have seen you play once or twice and I have read hands that have been reported so I am forming my own opinion of your game as well as taking on other peoples opinion of your game.

"Without wanting to sound bitter - if I was you - id ignoring 'owning' legends like Pab  and go for the value on your left (mr JJ!!!!!). "

I have reread the above sentence, and have reread the OP and my posts and can only assume that the vital part of this is "if I was you", meaning you wouldn't be looking to bluff Pab if you was the OP but it is ok if you are as good as you which is why you tried to. But got soul read.

Mad Japes.

with the greatest respect - just because you are in a hand with someone doesnt mean that you are trying to 'own' them. If i wanted to own someone, I would continually be in their pots (usually in position), i would be talking to them, and if I had reason, i would try to needle them slightly. It is very rare that i try to own anyone. Yes I run bluffs - but no I rarely try to own people.

If I was going to "own" him - i would 100% have been showing my hand if he didnt call my river bet.  I had zero intention of turning this hand over if he folded.

I did try to run 2 bluffs against rivermanl - one worked one didnt. .......Did I show my hand - no,....... did i say anything - no,..... was I at any point wanting to 'own him'  - no. so why did i do it? ..... before you come back and say something petty........... because i wanted to set my stall out against rivermanl, its got nothing to do with owning him, its got to do with him not feeling like he can run all over me and me not be able to do anything about it.  

I would urge you to re-read the sentence again - from the start, it clearly refers to my bust out hand and the fact that some numpty to the OP's left was clearly going to be a better spot. If i was giving a 'lecture' as you suggest it would have been worded very differently.

With regard to you knowing my game - great sample size on hands - what maybe 10...20 maybe?  And obvioulsy having met me once or twice.......... well clearly that says alot about my game?!?!?!?!?!?!

Do me a favour, i was going to buy the encyclopedia britannica for xmas,but i think I am much better off subscribing to this grape vine place instead, its clearly where I am going to get a wealth of good information from.

Rooks says outragous is pants at the pokers

Sensitive ego-ed outragous spends a good deal of time arguing semantics and defending himself...

Im not going to sit here and defend my game

...presumably while standing up.


Highlight

I did try to run 2 bluffs against rivermanl

...

did i say anything - no

This fail is called the "I do lots of great things for charidee but I don't like to talk about it" fail

all teams sing it when they play liverpool/everton, dont know how you would sing that to anybody other than liverpool based teams though... would it be 'in the leeds slums'?  doesnt really go does it?

no, in fairness people in yorkshire don't eat out of dustbins. luckily people in liverpool, manchester, newcastle, sunderland, middlesbrough, nottingham and birmingham do

are you not aware of where the tune for the song comes from then?  its typical of some soft southern fairy to claim a song but have no idea how it came about...

that's some interesting thought process you have. how do you get from me pointing out that all southern teams currently sing it to all most northern teams to deciding that that means I have no idea of its history and giving me abuse for that?

fwiw I don't really care where the song comes from, though I'll guess that it's adapted from united's song about the hillsborough victims as I don't remember it being around before then
