loose looseloose loose loose loose I’ve had a gutsfull.
Its the only entertainment gambling site that I loose so often!
All the advice means nothing!
Replay rewards those with the biggest stack no question,
SO GOODBYE ALL REPLAY TAKE NOTICE ALTHOUGH I SUSSPECT YOU DONT CARE.
Just so you know a low stakes table very recentley a player with a large stack won 7 hands in a row!
Well I ask u ???
bye okiato… youll be missed 
Come on man, why are you playing 25/50 blinds with a small bankroll?
Yes, and yet every other conceiveable explanation is offerred
if no one at replay cared then why do you think everyone here took all the time and effort to post those replies for you. only to help you improve your game and/or to get you out of your downswing.
IMO it’s very rude to insult everyone on replay here by saying that you suspect no one cares and all the advises mean nothing. if you just took the time to listen and use these advises, you might have been already out of your downswing. i just counted and there are 85 replies to your topic from 24 different people, and most of those replies are meant to help you. and you are insulting all of them by saying all their advises mean nothing.
the only reason i’m not flagging your post is because i want to say this at you personally first.
i understand you are in tilt, but don’t put your anger towards all the good people here that were trying to help you.
Don’t forget the bolded part.
My oppologies for being so rude to replay people.
I had allowed my frustration to turn to missdirected anger.
This is not me!
I have never had a downswing this bad before.
Mostley I cant even make a hand to call with hence the advice “means nothing”
I do appreciate all the advice given & am playing very very tight, but consistantlynot getting a playable hand in 40,50,hands & when it finally arrives being beaten by a better hand on the river.
Once again my sincere oppologies .
ok, thanks for apologising to the players.
i think the best advise i can give you on this moment is something that has nothing to do with strategy. which is try taking a break.
since you play poker i assume it’s something you like to do. but because of the bad luck you clearly aren’t enjoying yourself now. if you take a break of lets say a week (more or less can be done too of course, but i guess you know best when you will enjoy yourself again), you might get kicked less hard when you face a bad beat and keep your A game on instead of reaching tilt and lose your mind and fun in the process.
just to be clear, i believe you are facing much bad luck. but i think it’s the combination of teh bad luck and the tilt that makes it this bad. tilt makes you see the bad beats even stronger and the wrong plays less. and it means you keep getting angrier, which means you plays will get worse as well, and the cycle continues.
long story short: i would advise you to take a break of about a week and see if you get your fun in the game back.
if there is anything else i can help with feel free to ask.
gl, yiazmat.
edit: it might have been mentioned before, but if you get bored or annoyed by waiting so long for a good hand you might consider a few things: playing another table, listening music, playing 6h, 4h or HU, watching youtube, or browsing internet. the last two options i would usually recommend not to do, as it decreases your skill without equivalent gains. but if it helps you to get your fun in the game back i think it’s worth it.
hope this helps.
I hear that fiction on here all the time…but the fact is I came to this site knowing how to play poker and I win playing poker…this “Replay Poker” fiction is just another excuse for bad play and refusing to learn the game.
Fact? LOL!
For all I know you bought your chips or Replay gave them to you for “services rendered”.
Your internet declarations of facts you cannot prove and fiction you cannot disprove are just opinions to me.
There are plenty of people with varying amounts of cyberchips that have opinions both ways,
i think you are misinterpretate what he means, i completely agree it isn’t a excuse for playing bad and shoving the blame to replay. i think he means the different strategy that is required.
when you play to a pro, do you play differently when playing to a donk? i guess you will.
which is kinda what whittaker means to say. i’m not saying real money poker doesn’t have fish, or that replay doesn’t have powerful players. but i am saying it’s a fact that the quantity of bad players is higher when playing for fun then when you’re playing for money.
here a few examples of teh different kind of strategies:
there are probably many more good examples but i guess you understand the point i’m making.
the difference between real money poker and replay poker has nothing to do with shoving all the blame to replay and saying you did well, even if you’re not. it means you just need to alter your strategy from a fancy and complicated one to a more basic one.
@county29 has about 189M chips in the bank, give or take what’s in play. Last I checked, the most you could buy at a clip was 3.75M, for $125 real USD, making his bankroll worth about $6300 if he’d bought them all with cash. That’s an expensive way to lie about one’s poker skills.
Ultimately, if you’re a losing player, no amount of whining about how unfair the game is will turn your luck around. You need to invest the time to understand basic poker strategy, and be willing to listen to criticism of your play. @yiazmat, @Maya, and a number of the other players on this thread have been very open about sharing bits of their strategy to help improve your game. I strongly recommend listening to them, asking probing questions as to why they believe what they do, until you understand it better and can incorporate it into your own strategy.
Why do you folks try to turn every thread into a “Poker Instruction Thread”?
Don’t we have plenty of those?
Do you even read what the O.P. wrote or do you just automatically go into “I’m Your Guru” mode?
Read what okiato-fisher wrote. He didn’t ask for poker playing advice. Not once.
He was kind and thanked people for their advice but he never asked for it.
Here are some of the things he actually did say…
I’m hearing one very clear message from his posts…The Advice Is Not Working!!
Take a hint.
Well Stated Whittaker - I stand corrected…
okiato-fisher - I apologize for instruction instead of empathizing… I also have had a very bad run… since November… mostly personal… and I am gradually coming out of it.
I call it my ashes phase… kinda like the Phoenix waiting for a resurrection over which I have no control…
I pray that joy soon return to your game…

You want losing? Oh lord, this one hurt bad…
There are few things more painful than holding the bottom full house. It’s too strong to fold and not necessarily strong enough to win. It is MUCH easier to lay down the second flush or straight. In this situation, you’re going to pay them off and it WILL hurt. Been there, done that, but you have my sympathy anyway.
Probably because so many people on here really need instruction…
obviously i can’t judge for the other people’s motives. but i’m just not the type of guy that watches someone struggle with their losses. and just sit back and walk away.
instead i like to try finding a spot i can help to turn his downswing away and make him love the game again.
so i have to say you’re right, and maybe a shouldn’t interfere. but sitting back when i see someone has trouble with his game just isn’t me. and i assume the other people giving advises must have got the same thought.
on top of this, even after all his bad beats, he’s still here playing the game and active on this forum. which means he does still like the game, only just not the downswing. which is another reason i like to help.
edit: my last advise wasn’t really poker strategy, it was about taking a break or add something to the game to make it more fun. so i thought maybe that could help:
I like to think that I am that kind of guy…
