So to let anyone who is going to be in vegas from the 8th through the 15th and might want to meet/chill/what not, I'mma be there. Get in touch and let me know in a comment. I'm going to be staying in a timeshare near the strip (afaik, if it isn't as close as I'd like I might just get a room)

I think I really need to split or move my roll soon. I play at a lot of random hours and cake only has action from 12pm - 2AM EST.. Or maybe my expectations are just too high.

I circled the regs in this picture. These are 9 of the 11 nl100 tables running right now at 7.30AM EST. Do I just have too high of expectations of fish population for today's game? I haven't been on another site at these limits so I really don't know. Squares are most-likely-to-be-fish.

I'm not complaining because I'm losing or something btw. Just curious if I need to split my roll if I'm going to find decent games at non-peak hours, or if this is how it always is and thus I don't need to move my roll so badly.


-the circle-in-square is a fish actually

My goals for feb were:
60k+ Hands
nl100 reg status
2k+ profit

Things turned out pretty well. I've just finished my last hands before midnight, and time crosses over into march!

I hit just under 50k hands, so I missed that 60k hand goal, but I attribute it to 4tabling a large portion of the month while learning nl100. I think I definitely beat my nl100 reg status goal, though. I'm really comfortable here etcetc! So I am pleased with that. I also totally crushed my 2k profit goal, with a final total profit of $4677!

I've been on a little downswing since yesterday.. well a pretty big one considering my roll/total winnings, 4k -> 2.8k.. but its mostly because it was nl200. Ran like shit and dropped 5BI. Guess that isn't too bad. I played 2.5k hands 9tabling(lol bad idea but trying to grind a bonus) of nl100 since then and I've been getting kind of cold decked, but I've made a tiny profit. I'm just trying not to tilt to be honest.

I really should be ecstatic but I feel kind of meh right now, "in the moment" because of yesterday's bullshit and today's mediocre-ness. Overall, I'm very happy ^_________^

TBH I think during the shots I've taken at nl200 I should of been a winner, but obv its a tiny sample so there's variance + I don't know for sure of course.





For March, hm. Well I'm going to be in vegas for a week so I think 35k+ hands is a good goal.
I'd like to make 2k total profit.
And I'd like to be an nl200 reg. So I'm going to make sure I'm focusing on improving my game.
I'd also like to keep my expenditures below $450 while I'm at home, and I'd like to break-even atleast in vegas (I should make a big profit since I have like no expenses going there, so basically I'm praying not to run bad lol)

March goal:
35k+ Hands
Profit 2k+
Nl200 reg by April 1st
Budget $450


Thanks for reading, hope everyone's February went well and the same goes for March :D

I run like fucking shit at nl200.

Fish flop sets and turn quads
JJ flops QKA flop or the basic equivalent everytime etc

Bah.



fmlfmlfmlfml

really I'm just displeased because I have to grind a ton of hands in like 2 days to clear a bonus and withdraw, but I can't tonight because I'm tilted.

Going to take like 15hours at nl100 or 8 hours at nl200 but I don't think I should play nl200 atm cuz I'm ANGERRR111111

I could of sworn that each hand in poker is an independent event. So why does -every- heater have to turn into a downswing? Pretty sure I'm playing OK. Definitely not tilting, infact I'm quitting this session because I feel like I may, possibly, perhaps be at risk of tilt at this point. Preventative measures!

Anyway I hope I don't end up in a giant fuckin downswing because that'd make me a very sad panda.

My overall winrate is still fine/acceptable/good/above average 5.5BB/100. I was just hoping to normalize over my future hands instead of having to endure a giant downswing normalizing my entire fuckin winrate and thus making it as if I didn't run good at all this month ;( lol



Obviously I still far-exceeded my goals for the month so long as I don't downswing too much in the next 2 days, I'm still rather pleased.


/edit

3k(down 2bi) of 10k in 2days challenge complete lol. Too hard for me to play more than this at nl100 still 24 hours and we'll see how many hands I have for the 48h period lolol

So playersonly was offering a $500 reload bonus. Blahblah I only had $400 to deposit but that's fine because I only have like 3 days to try to grind it out. I deposited and then put in the bonus code and it failed WTF !

Live Chat Support:

Hello, my name is Josh Henessy. How may I help you today?

You: hi, I just deposited $400 to take advantage of the 500FEB9 reload bonus

You: but it isn't letting me have the deposit because apparently I used a deposit bonus this month. I think that was on like the 1st of the month and it was only $100

Josh Henessy: Please bear with me for a moment while I look into this...

You: I'd be really, really disappointed if I couldn't be given this $400 reload bonus I just deposited especially for

Josh Henessy: I can confirm as per customers with rakeback, they can only be credited up to $100 per month on bonuses

You: whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat



ASDFUCKCBALLSSHITLAMECRAPIMO!!!!

Anyway I'm still going to try and grind a TON tomorrow - Sunday. I need to clear $200 more in bonuses and figure out if I'm going to withdraw for vegas or if I'm going to ask my grandma for a loan matching my online roll as collateral. Any thoughts?


edit: update today

I gotta get my head right, I'm really exhausted but I'm not sure if that's why I keep making the wrong move
+50 for the day woot


I'm also propbetting myself that I can play 10k hands between thursday and friday. Any suggestions on what I should bet against myself?

A normal day instead of a heater

I wonder if the glorious heater is over!

Ran standard-bad today, got nailed with a 3outter 'n such, nothing getting paid off. Not too horrible since I'm only down 2.3BI. Lost some $ at 1/2 to beats as well, can't complain too much tbh..



Played way fewer hands than I hoped to today, I really desperately need to get my sleep schedule on-point so I feel better. I can play more poker during daytime hours since cake is dead at night, and I can get myself back in the gym.

No idea why, but my ex (who's been my ex for a long time now) has been figuring very, very prominently in my thoughts the last ~2? days and its bothering me a lot. I'll get over it etcetc just can't let myself start feeling depressed or something.. Kills like every aspect of my life :O

Yes, it continues.


I dropped $300 at like 4 in the morning unfortunately. Noticed I wasn't playing well ($200 was a cooler, I spewed $100 more in a non-tilty-just-bad-play way) and logged off. Because of my droppage I decided to move down and play nl100 for today. Tomorrow, I will play nl100 and table select nl200. If I downswing a couple of buyins I may even drop to nl50 for the day TBH.

This is a pretttttty sick stretch IMO. Definitely running like god. Just happy I'm not spewing too much in between

I started losing focus so I stopped (this is soooo important). I'm going to grind as much as I can focus tomorrow, looking for 2.5k+ hands. Hopefully I won't downswing and I can post a rather nice 20k hand stretch for the luls. Maybe it will even be BBV worthy.. yes, that's right, my true poker dream is to post a bbv worthy graph.

I am $150 away from a 5k month (including bonuses/rb obv). If I finish this month up 5k I will shit my pants, because I didn't expect to do something like that until July.

So I think its time to goto the bar and have a few drinks in celebration of the sickest poker weekend of my life (maybe the sickest weekend of life TBH, tasting monetary success for the first time and all).

I wish I had more useful things to say for you all right now, but I'm basically just awestruck and trying to keep myself grounded mentally while I continue putting in hands. I know a downswing can come EZ so I have to stay focused and disciplined in my approach.

So since it seems pretty hopeless that I'll be able to connect to poker networks (or anything outside of firefox or IE) at school, I went to the local 'outdoor mall' about 8 minutes from campus. I figured I'd just buy a coffee or sandwich and play off of the free Wifi these cafes have.

Here I am, managed to connect and am sitting at tables and everything. Of course.. their internet is really slow. I am constantly disconnecting from tables and I think it is pretty much unplayable.. I just disconnect folded AA in a pretty good spot, for instance. That was awesome.

This really sucks I guess I will keep an eye out for an independent cafe, since this one's network is shared with all of the other mall cafes.

FOOOOOOOOK!!!!
