Luck > Skill @ 50/100

So a bit of an into here, I'm rambling pretty high as I'm disgusted at the stock market and want to make some money back. I was being intelligent about it, sat at two 50/100 tables with a shortstack idiot, who I won a bit from. But the games fill and before I quit this hand occurs. I realize this is a bad flop for me, and lead-calling an all in is trouble as I really only beat AQ and Iva seems to be quite good(probably doesnt have AQ). I figure hes likely to put me on AK if I check and perhaps bet JJ or his own AK, so I check, intending to most likely move in if he bets. Well he checks and I turn top set, wow. I have to lead because the board is increasingly likely to have a 4 card straight on the river and the pot is already large, but I'm going to chump bet in case he has a marginal hand and he might put it in putting me on air due to my flop check. Wow he moves in and I call, thankfully he doesnt have a bizarre hand for a straight, but a set of Queens! Heck of a flop check by him LOL.

Stock markets killing me, lets play some poker

So a little history here; I have found the HU play on UB to be simply atrocious. If only the site wasnt connected to AbsolutelyRigged poker I would be playing there full time, as it is FTP has my business currently, even though the games arent quite as good. Its sortof funny though, I sometimes do better against the higher caliber players, as I know how theyre playing and they have no idea about me b/c I switch the gears alot (Thanks Sammy!).

So back to the hand at issue, this crazy ass had been potting it to $75 every single button and calling my reraises to $300 every hand, with as light as QJ (vs my TT he hits a J and a idioticly value bet the river when he checks behind every street till then). So, I'm down about $1500. Hes running me over, reraising 1/3 of my button raises. So he has a hand but not too often will he have QQ, KK, or AA. I am about 90% confident my JJ is good here before the river, due to his turn check, and at the river he has to have A9 or have flopped a set of 7s to have me beat. A9 I believe he would have lead the turn or check raised since the pot was so big, so unless he was making an awful turn call with AK high, Im only losing to 77744. His terrible turn play allows me to get full value from my hand, and hes not even sure what hes doing on the river, and neither am I, but I know I have the best hand, easy call.

Magic!

Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

Yeah River! :)

Oh wait, I was already winning :) I love when big games get wild preflop and you can just nit it up and get sick action with your monster hands. This is pretty much the situation I was waiting for hours for, folding hand after hand to the lagdonks. As Phil Helmuth says, just let them think they can push you around every hand, and soon enough you have all the chips and your opponent is sitting there bemused and broke.

Shanda CC 8/29

Analysts give positive nod to Shanda's performance

By Chris Oliver, MarketWatch

Last Update: 7:55 AM ET Aug 28, 2007

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- Analysts praised Shanda Interactive Entertainment Ltd. second-quarter results, saying the Chinese online gaming company appears to be making gains in key markets.

4:00pm 08/31/2007

Shanda said its active paying accounts totaled 2.72 million for the three months ending June 30, up 16% from the preceding quarter...

"It looks like a good set of results," said Dick Wei , an analyst who covers the company for JPMorgan in Hong Kong. "People were concerned that Shanda was taking money from the same user rather than expanding the user base, but from this set of results we can see that Shanda is increasing its user base."

Shanda's quarterly profit totaled 415.9 million yuan ($54.6 million), up from 133.6 million yuan in the same quarter a year earlier.

Wei maintained his "overweight" rating on the share and will consider revising his current price target from $35 in view of the strong results.

"I think with Shanda's good marketing capability the company can get more money out of a bigger user base in the long term," Wei said.

He added Shanda's quarterly non-GAAP operating margin rose to 46%, up from 44% in first quarter.

In a conference call late Monday Chief Financial Officer Daniel Zhang said the company expects third-quarter revenue to increase between 8% and 11% from the previous quarter.

"My view is quite positive on them (Shanda)," said James Rhee, an analyst who covers the company for Bear, Stearns & Co. in Hong Kong. "They've had their ups and their downs and they are definitely on the road back."

Excluding an investment gain from the sale of shares in Sina Corp, net profit for the quarter was 238.4 million yuan or 3.28 yuan (42 cents) per American Depositary Share.

Revenue in the quarter amounted to 564.4 million yuan ($74.1 million), up 39.1% from 405.7 million yuan in the second quarter of 2006. Analysts polled by Thomson Financial were expecting, on average, a per-share profit of 36 cents a share on revenue of $72 million.

Shanda also said Monday Chief Financial Officer Daniel Zhang has resigned but will remain on the board. Jun Tang, the company's president, was named acting chief executive.

Chris Oliver is MarketWatch's Asia bureau chief, based in Hong Kong.

Shanda CC on 5/10

Here we go again. This when my instincts will really be put to the test, as this is the time for Shanda to move above $30, at which point I will most likely significantly reduce my position size to eliminate my shares held on margin. Holding these shares, which takes my total number up to 5000, is costing me about $400 a month. A small price to pay for the possible $5/s x 2000 this quarter will bring me in pure profit if the quarter is a resounding success as I predict it will be. The game pipeline grows ever stronger, the internet marketplace turns into an internet mall, and margins improve. All Hail the Free to Play model!
