Just wanted to take a second and thank that possible TPE member for calling me a “Calling Station” at the Parx Main Event on Saturday.  Not going to name him, but if he's reading this, I'm sure he'll want to say something.  Don't worry sir.  I used your chips well.  Got to the money with them.  I see you didn't cash with all your great poker skills.  Damn shame.  Maybe next time champ..

Don't be a hater cause you called my value bet on the river on that extremely wet board.  Shame on you, but I thank you again.  Maybe you should pay attention to some of the vids on this site.  You must not be putting in the time…………  I was far from a “calling station” at our table all day.  Hence me finishing 9th overall in chips day 1 going to day 2. 

* After dinner break, I have been running the table most of the day.  CL for most of it up to this point.  Took a hit or two after dinner.  This guy comes to the table and sits in seat 5 I'm in seat 9 (9handed table).  We played next to each other in event 1 last 3 hours and I took some of his chips then as well. 

We both prob have 130-140k, he was opening a bunch of pots.  Winning a few here and there.  In this hand, he opens from UTG +2, we may have been at 600/1200  he may have opened to 2600 (no more)  I'm on the btn w/ QThh, I flat.  SB/BB were playing very tight and were kinda short.  Both folded.  Flop Ks9s4d, he CHECKS, I check.  Turn is a J (gives me the NUT straight, he bets, I call.  River is As, he checks, I bet 14k, he calls………….I show the straight and he flips out.  LOLOLOLOLOL  Says, “How do you do that.  You're a calling station.”  So on and so forth

I'm not positive this guy is a TPE member currently, but I found him on twitter and found a response he made to the TPE twitter acct when asked in Dec who's coming to Harrahs AC.  He chimed in and said, “I'm in.”  He's not very active on twitter.  He has had one or two bigger scores then me in major live tourneys, but if you are reading this sir.  Kiss my ass  I look forward to playing you in the future sir, cause i'm going to slowroll the **** out of you unless you apologize for your outburst at Parx Casino Main Event table 68 day 1c.  If not, it's cool, let the cards do all the talking playa.

*I know my reputation in the East Coast Poker community is a good one.  More people know me then they do you, I promise you.  Ask some of your friends, cause I know a few of them and they will tell you I'm a good guy.  But your comments were way out of line.

i cannot speak to who/what was said since I obviously was not there.  But your hand looks pretty standard.  I probably play it exactly the same way except I might bet a bit more on the river.

 

congrats on the nice run!

KB, I thank you sir.  I didn't understand his comments.  Like I said, I was doing really well all day at this tbl and got the best of him once or twice before, also got the best of him a few times in event 1. 

 

I was very surprised by his comments, there were a few more.  I made a few comments as well, but no bad words, lol. 

 

This was a MAIN Event and calling with my hand on the button seems extremely standard if not raise in my opinion.  Like I said before, I'm not very good, but I'm not clown either.  My results are starting to speak for themselves.   

 

KB, you know me and have played with me.  I'm not “that” guy who's going to go wacko on someone.  It was such a little spot.  Not heeps of chips or the last 20 minutes of the night.  He still had plenty of chips.

Was it DannyN13? He tends to behave this way when outplayed. LOL

He is playing live poker now too. Makes sense.

 

But in all seriousness tho, it was a standard play and no need for a guy to get on like an IDIOT when you played your hand correctly.

lol, no not Danny.  I love that guy.  He and I have had drinks together before so he wouldn't have done that to me.  This guy might be a reg member, if at all a member.  But that's ok.  I'm over it.
