ITT I thumb my nose at the jinx

[mcatdog]

I think all you guys who believe in the rail thread jinx are clowns and I'm going to put my money where my mouth is. Every time I make a big final table I'll post here. I'm bound to win one of them sooner or later right? Anyway I'm 3rd in chips at tonight's final table of a 1K Wynn Classic prelim, 55K for first.

[gabe]

interesting!
so when a dozen FTRers blast the chat box with crap it causes a kind of tilt

[mcatdog]

Thanks for the good luck wishes. I did get lucky but you have to play well too and I made two terrible folds plus an inexcusable live poker noob mistake of folding my BB when limped to because I thought I was the SB. Came in 4th for 12K and I really think a good player would have taken 1st or 2nd the majority of the time with the cards and situations I got. The most frustrating thing is this is the same thing that happened last time I had a chance at a huge score (Super Tuesday a couple weeks ago).

I'm happy with the scores but I feel like I'm playing a losing/breakeven game and just winning by running hot. I don't know what's happened, two months ago I felt great about my game but lately I've just been making tons of mistakes where two minutes after the hand I realize how terrible I played it.

Anyway I'll still bump this thread next time I make a big FT because I still need to prove that the jinx is dumb.

[givememyleg]

nice score meatdog, too bad about the jinx

[jyms]

Understandable with the jinx and all what chance could you have?

[Jack Sawyer]

Congrats on the score.

I say do not try to prove the jinx, you'll end up dabbling in superstition while trying to prove superstition is dumb.

Just play your game which we all know is good (and avoid black cats in the process) and you have nothing to prove imo.

[bikes]

Solid score sir.

[a500lbgorilla]

sick jinx bro

[lolzzz_321]

never settle

[GatorJH]

mistake of folding my BB when limped to because I thought I was the SB.

Jinx hit you hard imo.

Seriously though congrats on the score.

OH and finally if you REALLY don't feel like you played that well and you don't feel like you deserve it then feel free to ship me the moniez. I will gladly donk it away for you.

[dthorne04]

The Jinx keeps on being legit.

gg sir. nice job.

[swiggidy]

I came in here ready to help rip on Jinxx because I <3 him, but I am sad

[mcatdog]

Bump for the final table of the nightly $163 on Full Tilt. I'm in 6th so I probably won't break the jinx curse this time, but I need to bump the thread in case I do.

[fat-b]

[UG]

nice job drmcboy, awesome stuff

[bigspenda73]

hi, you did not create a new thread, therefore the jinx is real and you helped to prove it

[UG]

agree, jinx lives obv

[drmcboy]

crap

[bigspenda73]

don't get me wrong it was a clever attempt at proving the jinx wrong but to do so you must start a new thread.

also, gratz yo, OMAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FTW

[drmcboy]

but wait doesn't this mean if we use this thread instead of starting new ones we have defeated the jinx? At least until someone bumps this thread and doesn't win, but I don't see how that could happen.

[Jack Sawyer]

no.

make new thread + win = no jinx.
old thread + eventual win = bah (in the sense of proving or disproving the mythical jinx).

and congrats on the score!

I can see the logic.. It just means mcat is doomed. Oh well.. His fault for fucking with the jinx in the first place!

[mcatdog]

weasels ITT

nice score doc

[a500lbgorilla]

nice score ITT of weasels

[mcatdog]

At the final table of the Stars 100R right now, 31K for first. Does it count if I win, since I'm the OP of this thread? I guess you guys will say yes if I don't win but no if I do.

[Ragnar4]

railing, but I'm poh, so I can't talk. quick someone ship me 40 bucks.

--Edit: Also, take any guesswork out of it, and start a new thread lolduh

[bigspenda73]

make a thread

[Ragnar4]

eff that. He's in first, now, what do you want him to do? Lose it?

[Ragnar4]

I JUST CAME HERE TO GIVE YOU YOUR MONEY! CHOPWHORE.
YOU COULD HAVE LOVED ME, AND KILLED THE JINX, BUT YOU TOOK THE MONEY.

Actually Gratz on the chop dawg. 2-1 in chips to our man Mcat for a 25k+ score.

[bigspenda73]

sooooo obvious

1. Mike believes in teh jinx
2. Mike won't start new thread and instead backhandedly tries to disprove jinx by bumping this thread
3. Mike decides to chop to create an auto-victory, thus making a lame attempt to disprove the jinx
4. Mike made $28k more than me today
5. I WANNA BE LIKE MIKE

[donkbee]

lol @ BadcardsAA trying to make it 27k 28k, he should have instataken the original deal

[donkbee]

congrats mike!

[bigspenda73]

JINX LIVES

[mcatdog]

3. Mike decides to chop to create an auto-victory, thus making a lame attempt to disprove the jinx

Can't really argue with this, but my record HU in donkaments is subpar to say the least and my bankroll isn't that huge after taxes so it seemed smart to chop. Sucks that I wasted such a good chance to kill the jinx though.

[zook]

congrats mike! and congrats jinx!

[GatorJH]

it's not often that Mike can take down a big payout and STILL keep the jix intact. Well played OP

[a500lbgorilla]

letter m catdog, accepting the jinx is like accepting jesus. Once you fall in line, you've got like a billion of us in your corner and the inexplicable gets explicabled.

[bigred]

^ that tickled my brain thoughts and stuff

[a500lbgorilla]

goood times

[bigred]

this thread is a good place to be

[Ragnar4]

^ that tickled my brain thoughts and stuff

odd... when I read the "word" explicabled, all I could think was:
OWWWW! Them's my brain meats.

[bigred]

Not the funny haha kind of tickle

[a500lbgorilla]

hey, that was a well crafted word by the worlds finest wordsmith.

[meeloche]

Nice cash!

[dthorne04]

this is just an aberration, rail curse is real
