Basically, I've gone busto due to tilt and awful bankroll management and need to get back to winning ways soon. I have converted my FPPs into 330T$ and from there into $320.10, and plan to grind from NL10 back to NL100 ASAP. To do this, I have set myself a goal of playing 250k hands by the end of May (49 days). I'm re-starting this blog so I can keep t...

The fish are super-passive and the regs make way too many moves.

Four days in, I'm up 30 buy-ins. Running fairly hot (about time), but I definitely think I could beat this game for at least 10ptbb/100 over the long-term given how...

I'll do whatever it takes. I'll eat my vitamins and say my prayers. I'll help an old lady across the street. I'll be less of a nit and contribute more to the rake. I'll spend my FPPs on overpriced cookies instead of cash bonuses. I'll buy a copy of your book. Hell, I'll even bu...

I'm pretty much back at the $500 mark, so I have 20BIs I have to pick up here again. Things started well, with a nice heater getting me up 7BIs in less than 1000 hands, then I pretty much went card dead/got no actio...

I just wish I could get her out of my fucking head. If I wasn't so poor right now, I would throw something valuable at the wall. Poker also not going well. I'm surrounded by retards, but I can't beat them. Their gay bets of 1/8th the pot size tilt the fuck out of me. Sick life etc. Fri, 21 Dec 2007 14:31:38 +0000 https://www.liquidpoker.net/blog/viewblog.php?id=365273 https://www.liquidpoker.net/blog/viewblog.php?id=356053 beethreekay So things have been going pretty horribly for me lately poker-wise, and as a result have lost pretty much all confidence in my game. I've been on about a 15 buy-in or so downswing for the past week or so, most of which has been mistakes by me. I've pretty much just spent the last week slowly leaking chips. I've tried adding tables to encourage me to just grind, and I've tried dropping down to 4...

I ran pretty good earlier in the week and got up to a bankroll of nearly $2200, but have since gone through crazy swings and ended up going nowhere fast. I know I'm capable of beating this level for a whole lot more than 2 ptbb/100, but tilt control and discipline are continuing to be monumental leaks ...

So I tried a 16-tabling session and voila, problem solved: [img]http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd230/beethreekay/04122007.jpg[/img] No real coolering of others on my part here, it was more me floppin...

I've moved from 4-tabling to 12-tabling (and my ptbb/100 has gone up somehow as a result!) and have crossed the threshold into 50NL. It's not all that different really. Players are a little nittier and float less, which kinda suits my style a bit (I c-bet a lot). Here are my stats: [img]http://i220.photobucket...

My last live session was particularly crazy, with me going down big and getting it all back plus profit by going on a 3 buy-in upswing (~€900) in less than an hour (about 25-30 hands max). It was kinda my own doing though. I had decided to be a degenerate and forgo a planned online session and ins...

I didn't get my Aces cracked once during this 6k run, and got paid off quite a bit. 25NL is so easy when you're getting big pairs and sets at the right time and either catch an over-aggro donkey or valuebet a station ...

On the upside, every 25NL reg probably has me buddlylisted as a tilty spewtard, so at least my metagame will be good for a while.

Went pretty well, too: [img]http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd230/beethreekay/30092007.jpg[/img] There's about three separate sessions here, and I'm happy with how I played in two of them. ...

I did the 10NL hands first, and I felt I didn't play well, but I ran good. It was appropriate that a win wi... Sat, 29 Sep 2007 09:53:18 +0000 https://www.liquidpoker.net/blog/viewblog.php?id=302800
