Following the rules




Ok, what's wrong with this picture?
No, idiot, not the Jarah picture. Nothing wrong with that. I'm talking about the poker table.
Naturally, nobody more than myself knows how annoying I can be. The dog is a close second. When I want to just relax and enjoy a muffin and an episode of NCIS I expect to not have a couple of Scientologists knocking on my door trying to recruit me. And when I sit at a poker table on the internet, I expect that maybe once in a hundred games I'll actually be there with real human people. The other 99 games - looking for crap.
I do appreciate the 700k I won on Full Shit Poker yesterday. Even though it didn't have to do so much with poker skill as knowing the system and playing against bad AI. That table was a 100k buy in. But you never know where I'm going to pop up. It might be a meaningless 144 player HORSE tourney on Pokerfrauds.
I used WTWhatever as mybarometer. Registered and didn't play a single hand. Got bounced around on several tables and WTWhatever was there. With so few "people" playing, that's not a surprise. What is a surpise is that my trick of timing out on irrational pre-flop raises has been met by the astoundingly stupid "You're hand is folded" before the time bank. And this has been going on for days now. Not just me, other positions have had their hand folded before the time bank kicked in.
Is there a lunck somewhere someone has to be to? You can't follow the rules and you need to fold quicker? Why are you here in the first place? To make my life miserable?
You betcha.
So when I decided to fold my way into as high a spot as I could I contnued to use WTWhatever as my barometer.
The "tourney" (cough cough) slogged into an obvious fold or play versus a vaccuum typical internet poker shit. So, as I wait until WTWhatever is gone I'm met with this little gem of not playing by the rules.
If ya haven't figured it out yet, and you probblly (it's a word!) haven't because of the Jarah camel toe -
WTWhatever is all in with no cards.
If you're going to cheat me, at least follow the rules.
