have i missed the river tom? by time it takes me to write out my post the thread has moved on 3 pages.

The river was to the AA hand was 

Have I missed the post where after the hand has finished you typed in the chat box " Heads up for rolls you donk?" Because that's my favourite bit.
tom never got chance as his monitor (guess you still use one of them tom) had a fist size hole in it.

Nah, he's proper hip - has a lappy and all.  But don't ask what happened to the poor cat.  It's still recovering and has since formed a union with the moles.
lol. tom loves animals. i assume his lappy is not the type Cos pays through the nose for?

warning Tom, fullring is basically an abc reg top-set-mining contest. Id definitely swerve it if i were you, its not poker. You cant outplay someone who never calls with worse but wont fold better.

by Alex's definition you can beat this game by micro grinding and winning every flop (in position)

but i agree its tough grind

The river was to the AA hand was 
you are more confused than me. think we are leveling each other without actually knowing river was  ..his hand was so giving him the straight flush and you the nut flush...some would call this a cooler (those some would also 5 bet jam AK pre and call it a cooler running into AA orKK) but as the board had paired i think you would have possibly gien this hand up live because of the full house hand beating you. if you had 3 bet more pre flop i think the guy still calls in the bb and you would have lost more (unless he stacked you off any way then would be impossible to lose more.) but i am just learning again

Yes. He rivered the straight flush.

even i aint folding for that amount into that pot. looks like you are ahead to draw / top pair type hands... i think hands beating you flat n get it in on the next street. so agrred with andy but possibly for different reasoning

Also interested in peeps thoughts on short-stacking FR. Even good players seem to make really bad plays against me when I sit with a short stack. It seems to tilt the crap out of them for some reason.

Do you think short-stacking FR is a viable strategy?

what have i said that's confusing?

I simply agreed with what Alex said about online fullring. It's not poker.
