Hey -- its the T-dawg here throwing some fire your way homes,

The past couple days have been pretty good. I've been semi-trying to get some good hand volume in so that I can get my bankroll into better shape. It has been going alright, and I'm going to make my goal of 60k hands this month. I'm not sure how much I'm going to be able to play while I'm traveling, but I hope I will be able to put in 20 hours of actual play along with a couple of hours of studying each week.

My biggest priority for the holiday season is to relax and enjoy, though, since why do I bust my ass and get all stressed about for, anyways? To relax and enjoy myself. Its been going well, except for a hiccup on Sunday where I spent far too much time with my ex-gf, luckily in the end it ain't no thang.

I'm having a party (on very short notice..) here at my dad's place for new year's eve. We have an awesome place, are going to roast a pig, shoot some fireworks, etc. Its going to be a little bit of work getting everything ready but hopefully it will be worth it :D If any good pictures are taken I'll try and share (comedic value etc).

I will swing by with an overview of my year soon.. I think it was a pretty good year, especially the time I spent in vegas, so I'm pleased.

PEACE~

100% going to stick to this until at least Feb. 1

Haven't slept since my last blog haha, having a lil bit of a strike of insomnia.. I think I'll wrap up the day with a blog post looking towards the future.

I'm going to have to just completely take 20bi shots out of my br management strategy. At this point where I need to have a strong and basically unbustable roll, I need to take measures to lower my stress for a while. For that reason I won't be taking anymore shots at fish in higher stakes games for a while.

Currently I have a BR of 4k which I consider plenty for nl100. From now through the month of Jan. my plan is to grind nl100 until 6k and from there play nl200 with a move down to nl100 if I drop to 5k. I will start 2/4 shots at 15k, whenever that milestone comes around I will re evaluate.

I think this is going to be the least stressful way of doing it without feeling like I'm choking myself of significant EV.

But I simply will not allow myself to take shots that can hurt my confidence and day to day life/happiness so much.

I can fulfill this plan because I don't have need of money irl now for atleast 2 months(hopefully longer), and I'm not in fear of busting even a 40bi roll at nl100 (though I will ofc move down if I have to..)

I won't turn my back on this plan, I'm glad to know I can always recover at nl100.

This is my graph of nl100 6m since I started playing poker again, I hope I don't have to add more than 15 or so buyins to it before I can stay at nl200 fulltime but we will see~

+ Show Spoiler +

(99% of hands played are from ~aug 10th and beyond, EV is almost dead nuts even)

Also, the only acceptable deviation from this plan would be if I decided to stay at nl100 longer or if I stay at nl200 longer!

So I have some stuff to work on.. here we go!

Starting to feel hopeless and depressed.. I just can't win for any period of time greater than 2 weeks. The worst regs always destroy me with run good or nonsensical play... the worst fish always make me their bitch somehow... or I make a horrible, deeply shameful blunder somehow.

At this rate I will never get anywhere near any of my goals in my life or even be remotely successful.

I can't accept being an nl100 player any longer because of this fucking VARIANCE. Yeah I make mistakes during these shots, I know I'm not perfect, but why can't one of these shots ever go right?

I guess I just really can't afford to take any shots at fish. I have never allowed myself to pass up humongous EV before and it has cost me WELL over 15k this year just in losses (let alone EV of playing my normal game....). I've NEVER, EVER had a successful shot at a higher stake, I always get massively coolered or run bad. NEVER have a shot resulted in +more than 1 buyin, and they usually end up -8bi at my normal limit.


for the lols.......

Failing at not checking results when I know I'm having some incredible bullshit happening to me Going to work on it.. Part of the reason I checked today to make sure my roll wasn't in danger tho.

Bleh first 1000 hands I lost $1000 at 1/2 and had an EV of $0(edit: turns out I exaggerated the EV/misread the graph u can see in comments). It has continued this theme until the 3500th hand where I'm wrapping up my 4th session today at -$500 and an EV of $200. (I moved down to nl100 after hand 1000 at 1/2)

This shit doesn't need to happen every 3rd day in such extreme ways does it? Can't I just have a smooth week or two for once.. please..

Still feeling goodish overall, just so tired of getting slapped in the face like a dick biting whore everytime I start to have a good profit for a month or play 1/2.... naw mean?

Having a really frustrating month with poker....


I would be in profit if I was a better player, though, so I will keep working on it best I can. I just don't feel like I have a lot of power very consistently over the past (brutal) couple of months. Still working on iiittttt.

There is still plenty of time left in the month and I have a sort of minimum goal for myself of 2k hands or 5 hours of play a day averaged out over the month. I had to cancel my prop bet with The Cleaner (sorry bro), but its for the best right now. Hopefully I can find 1 or 2 people to prop on most hands played at some time in Jan.

Been at my dad's since Wednesday night and I'm feeling better already. I already know its going to get a little bit boring though, since I'm like ~30min away from the city. Going to mix it up a bit and ride our go-cart and ATVs though.. Wish I had some friends out here aside from my Dad & Uncle (who is a lot of fun) though.

best of everything to all u foo's out there!

Oh yeah, I have a question and want some ideas:
Aside from acquiring discipline, does anyone have any ideas on how to prevent myself from looking @ my HEM graph etc until like I deliberately need/want to at like the end of the day or every couple days or something haha. I don't have issues checking my cashier but today for instance I checked my graph 800 hands into my session (was up 3.5bi woo) and I notice it had an effect on my judgement after that.

stuck like 6bi for the month, played a solid 25 hours which is OK for 1 weeks work (probably spent 5 hours studying books + these forums so..). I guess -6bi is better than -16bi.

fucking worst reg in the history of poker runs like god vs me (like he *always* does) and wins 6 buyins from me

I was playing mega good earlier today, thought processes were clear, confident in my decision making (even when I followed through and hit the wrong part of their range or w/e, I felt good). I can't keep it up when I keep getting crapped on.. bleh atleast I didn't tilt really. I know the last 1/2 of today I wasn't exactly.. tilted, but I wasn't 100% either like I was my 1st session.

I'm going to go stay at my dad's for 2-3 weeks (tentatively, could possibly turn into longer but there are certain drawbacks to being out in the middle nowhere aka where my dad lives). He has an extremely nice house sitting on 13 beautiful acres so.. being out of this chaotic house will probably help me. Its hard never having more than 2 or 3 peaceful days over the past 2-3 months.. I'll still be grindin' and trollin' ya'll so don't worry about that

Forgot if I mentioned it but a week or so ago I went and ordered a new passport as well. cool imo~




that incredible redline rofl wasn't bad play it was just me getting fucked.. I stuck it through playing OK and then get coolered by that fucking idiot reg twice for 2bi each time. annnnd that broke the camels back so here I am semi-ragingggggggg
I know I'm only down 4bi for the day but losing like 4bi in nonshowdown in 500 hands is extremely tilting, then getting hit 'n run HU by that retarded reg in our 1st hand for 2bi and on another table losing 2bi to the same cuntmuscle within 5 second. omg.


Alright I feel much better now <3
happy time~
