$1 for you, $1 for you, another $1 for you...
« on: October 20, 2008, 11:53:34 PM »
This is what's been happening to me lately, giving $1 around at Carbon.
I'm on losing streak from 2.20 Bounty games everyday almost nothing left in my account now.

I know this tournament is quite ok, aside from getting a decent payout, you also get to earn $1 from each player you knock out.Just knock out 3 players then you get your buy-in back. My good friend from UK has been winning big from this tourneys.

I hope my next bounty game, I get some few $ back...

Just step back there and reevaluate your play highestkicker023 !  Nice to vent the way you just did here, but check out what you are doing wrong.  Misreading or bad timing!  You more likely are giving of tells.

Just had a small streak of donkey kicks myself.  I did it and found out I was calling to fast instead of raising a little and watching how long the other person reacted.  Guess what I lost 12% bankroll before reevaluation and in two hours I have to get $8 USD the be even.  Works for me.  Turn a streak that started Saturday and just ended two hours ago.  Just taking a break to get refreshed and will be back at it in 1/2 hour.

Do not press your game it has to flow from you without lip chopping or teeth grinding.  :)  ;)

I also had a bad day yesterday playing those
$2 bounty tortaments ony played two but
couldnt get a hand.The first tortament in the
first hour I only played 3 hands.one hand I lost
500 off my starten chips the next one I doubled up
and than waited about 25 min before I got a playable
hand.The guy next to me only had 5 chips left so I go all
in withmy middle pair to try and win the $1 bounty on him
only to have someone else call with a higher pair and knock
me out off the tortament just before the first break/the next
tornney I was out with in 10 min.Also lost about 8 bucks at a
table.Lost about 4o percent off my cash at Carbon yesterday.

Going to try and win it back today.
Solution to the glass is half full - half empty ......

If you are taken something out of the glass than its half empty if you are putting something in the glass than its half full..

You know I really dont get the infatuation of the bounty tourneys it seems like to me you could really benefit to winning the prize pool more if you hold off on going after the early bounties. PErsonally I havent played em since I quit playing on UltimateBet.
