Thank you for saving me the 10 minutes or so it would have taken to type something similar up myself.
Nice post. Easy to read, LOGICAL... I give it  As for this though: I've never judged YOU... the REAL you... the family man with the above average IQ who is the nicest guy on the block and a stallion in bed and whatever else. All I've ever judged is the online you - the "BrainSWA" that you have presented to us here. And since we aren't sugarcoating things any more (your idea, not mine), yeah, I pretty much think BrianSWA is a douchebag. I think he means well (most of the time - he has in the past admitted to being an idiot for the sake of being an idiot), and I'm sure he is a perfectly nice guy in the real world, but around here, he's got some issues. Basically, I think he's a lazy bipolar moody little attention whore bitch, and it's very often painful to read/decipher his posts. Hey, just calling 'em how I see 'em. In real life, I'm a nice guy, generally a good and generous person, and most people like me. I'm sure you and I would get along just fine if we ever had a couple of beers together (and if TeamSWA makes it to the WSOP someday, we probably will). In here, I think I keep my cool most of the time, but once in a while (this thread is a good example), I get tired of the stupidity and I turn into a bit of a condescending dick. So I wouldn't blame you for seeing me that way. I don't feel like typing any more about this nonsense, so I'm going to randomly end this post right here. |

JD, I would be interested in getting your honest opinion here. Obviously this is a horrible play. I am constantly amazed at some of the horrible play/players that some of you big timers post about. But do you think that alot of it is just that they are fish, or is it more that you tilt people, as you stated in OP. Meaning, do you think this guy (and many others), are really that bad? Or is it more from the cumulative effect of you playing LAGy, check-raising alot, showing bluffs etc.? Do you think alot of these donks, if they look back on plays similar to this, are wondering why they would make such a play? Or again is it just simply that the world is filled with fish? TP, boobie, etc. chime in too please. |

I think it's a combination. Typically (say, 90% of the time), the donks I run into in 6 max games are just donks. But playing Heads Up like this, I think you can most definitely tilt your opponent and get him to hand you his stack like this.

I don't know if you can assume this is such a horrible play. Perhaps the way JD played the hand made the villain to believe that it was unlikely for JD to have an ace or better in the hand and that this bet on the end would work enough times for this play to be profitable. Although it looks retarded when JD has a monster doesn't mean that it is necessarily a donk play.
Everyone plays a hand or several hands badly from time to time. I'm sure if I posted one of my many moronic hands you would instantly try to track me down and hunt for me to take money away from me. Just because you saw one hand in a HU match that made the villain look dumb doesn't mean that this person is a bad player. |

I agree its a combination. I don't mean tilting people by talking, I guess just aggrovating people and outplaying them, especially heads up, that leads to tilt.
Also, this guy is pretty solid HU I guess, he's not horrible by any means and I'm pretty sure hes a big winner overall. This hand looks like he played it terrible, but he had alot of reason to push if he put me on a air or a PP less than tens.
