Some player didn't get contacted and haven't played for a while. But on a side note I have really nice RB 10/15% more and it's much easier to find tables at my stakes on ipoker at any time. Also I managed to rebuild my roll on ipoker had two good days (2.5k and 2.2k), I'm still down something 3k from my up point and I have 2kRB+600 deposit bonus. If I didn't get offered that it was pretty clear to me I was going to cashout everything on UB cause of the lack of tables. So I'm up 10k, 7k UB - lil over 3k iPoker for august. What do you think should be my next move, where do I grind? text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 oddeye http://oddeye.liquidpoker.net God -6k today, horrible downswing, actually down with my aces from getting sucked out so much. Worst part of is it almost made me broke on iPoker, which fucking tilts me. I totally hate redepositing and god damn if I get sucked out like that again there is no way I'm going to win. I know it's "standard" variance to lose 16bis, I was actually pretty focused when I was playing, but I lost a few pots I could have folded, like folding AQ vs a nits on CO v Deal, and AK vs another nit UTG. I pretty much want to die right now. I think I have to play the two next weeks non-stop, I really don't want to drop limits to me this is just an horrible idea which will make me tilt. I've already had at least 4-5 of those downswing, it tilt me even more that they still tilt me. I've felt my play had been improving for a while, I felt I was taking better decision but maybe I came to a wall or I'm robotic/tilted when I play, I still felt I was tangling and bluffing at a decent frequency and frankly it doesn't look like my bluff costed me much, it seems I lost mostly by folding so many hands on bad flop or simply at showdown. I'm gonna have to think this all over and try to look up at hands with some other people. o well gl guys. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 oddeye http://oddeye.liquidpoker.net August went fine overall, no horrible downswing like july (sadly no balla upswing either) and I'm up 10k+1.5kRB, which is pretty evenly split between UB and iPoker. The volume of hands put from most of my 20k months is about half, so it seems like I'm doing pretty well. I've never been spending much from poker, because I never was much of a big spender in the first place. However, now I decided I wanted a nice car and took some time to research a car that would be nice for me and with much help from my friends decided that I will be soon be buying an Infiniti G35 Coupe 2007. I've been spending a lot of time with friends this summer and we did a whole bunch of things. I've also kept up with working out and running to keep myself in good shape and good mood. I'm thinking about quitting UB altogether and just play on ipoker because I can get traffic straight when I wake up so I'm more focused and way more tables at peak hours. Ps. This is a googled image of the same model, not my actual car [img]http://image.automotive.com/f/miscellaneous/2007-infiniti-g35-coupe-is-priced/1011654+w612+cr1+re0+ar1/2007-infiniti-g35-coupe-front-rightjpg.jpg[/img] Apart from that I bought an ipod cause I lost my old mp3 player that worked perfectly and a nice watch that I will probably wear like once a month (I kinna hate wearing a watch all day for no reason, I'll just take it when I go out probably).
