Shit sucks...he played solid all night with me...honestly we even collusion when possible to gain profits and soft play in pots tougher...he share thoughts on how to play hands and so on...solid dude
I thought he was joking being on his last $200 but he drove it up to $2,000 then lost a nasty all in pot...he had top full house and the other guy had Quads and had him covered
My buddy legit went broke....I'm debating lending him cash but know he'll play with it...and it's not a roll deep enough to-do so with....he will just go bust again
Thus I feel like I want be helpful
Fucked situation

If the two of you collude I am thrilled he lost and is broke. Cheating sucks. No excuse. None at all.
Lol...just apart of live winning poker bro
But I understand and will not ever argue against your view as I see the perspective
^you sure you didn’t help him go broke and now you’re feeling guilty ? ;)
Tell him to place an add on backpage for a gloryhole. Oh wait, can’t do that anymore.
Want to be a good friend? Never lend money to a hard core gambler when he is at the casino - never...
Extremely True guys
I prefer to piss my money away on beautiful 18 yo redheads. But to each his own.
Cap'n Save-a-Po
Lol
Some of the best poker players have gone broke at one point or another. Mike Matasow comes to mind. He can come back from it, but he's got to do it himself. I doubt you have the bank roll to help him without hurting yourself.
I'm with skibum on the cheating. Poker is hard enough without having to deal with cheating players.
That's a tough situation Juice. If he is decent he should get a backer until he gets back on his feet. If you are not rolled don't lend him anything, best way to lose a friend.
Offer to buy him some chakin.
Zero sympathy for cheats, skibum nailed it.
Hopefully, karma willing... next time either of you have QQ, not only do ya go broke on a 2-out river hit by your opponent, but a couple of real-life Sigfried & Roy (QQ's) Bear types that you cheated at the tables subsequently proceed to roll your asses in the parking garage.
I need this talk guys and respect all views... amazing points and agreed with
Check raising the devil was a great book of Matt the mouth
I wonder if my friend will blow me for $100
My advise to any one. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Because you probably will.
I don’t gamble - I don’t play poker either. My dad would beat the piss out of me after he’d lose money on late night poker games. I totally hate card games now. So I’ve got no useful advice other than to not play - if you can’t handle your losses.
Poker is a game of skill in a sample size of a million hands LMFAO
Your friend got off easy. My dad told me about a shipboard poker game that he witnessed while he was in the Navy. Three of the guys at the table we're sure they had the winning hand. Cars and even a house we're in the pot.
All but one of those guys had some serious 'splainin' to do to there wives! :-/
Juice is correct about poker but in the context of his friend skill is irrelevant. Skill makes a winning player but any winning player can lose as any particular hand or session due to variance (luck or bad luck). He totally failed at bankroll management and putting your last $200 on the table is just plain nuts.
Upright Amen brother
@ATAC You believed your Dad with that BS?
@ juicebox69
How did you teach yourself poker and is it a feasible career?
