Sometimes I'm amazed how certain people manage to breath.

Is the hand number assigned as it is dealt or complete (regarding being idiots for folding preflop)?

Not only that but if you view the picture below, the guy tells them all that they have won 'at least $10,000 each'. You've got to be a complete retard to be playing at a penny table and fold on the billionth hand. I weep for these people and I just pray to god one of them folded a two clubs with one higher than an 8!!!

Few things about this are really funny. First off, no I don't really play at .01/.02 NL, my idea was to sit at as many tables as possible and fold as quickly as possible. Because, I'm losing blinds, obviously I want to play the smallest stake possible. I had 10 tables up on my screen, and worked with 4 other friends who each had 10 tables up on there screens. I calculated there to be at most 5,000 cash game tables, meaning our group had an at least 1/100 chance of winning. I figured out that by using a bob and weave strategy of simply clicking on tables and clicking the gold 'fold to any bet' box, I could manage my tables much easier. When the 10 billionth hand came up I was extremely excited, but was not thinking to highly of my 24o, so I figured why not begin to lobby for a chop, and also why not say I have a good hand like AKs, because they probably wouldn't of believed me if I say aa or kk. I was saying "I have AKs, but I don't think it's worth it", meaning I didn't think it was worth it to just have dumb luck determine the fate of 100k, when we would be all be happier to be sure of getting an extra 17k. In moments of desperation to try to organize a chop, I was told that it was not possible. Meanwhile, I had failed to notice I had the gold 'fold to bet' box already checked out of habbit from my system. And believe me, when I saw the action come to me and I folded, I lost it, and I admit it was a really bonehead mistake to make, but it happend, although I am 3 dollars richer for the fold, considering my hand would of been 4 high. So I have to blame my system for my donkish fold combined with my overexcitement, although I can't really be mad at the system because it won me 13k (3k bonus for gold vip). |

Wow, playing 40 tables at onces of the lowest stakes just to get a 1% shot at that money. I wish I woulda thought of something like that.
All I thought of was playing a bit more because of the chance to win some money.
