October in review
Zalfor, Oct 31 2009
I know this month is ending, and since I'm going home for the weekend, I won't be playing very much poker until I get my new laptop so this is going to be it for the month.
Overall ran pretty well this month, I ended up doing poorly for the first 20k hands after playing poorly at nl50, but switched to HU and now I'm a nl100 6m grinder. So far its been good.
I didn't achieve SN yet, got another 10k VPPs to go, but that will definitely come next month. I'm going to grind up nl100 until i get to around 8k or so in my BR and try some shots are nl200. But until then, I'm going to grind it out at 100 for a while. I feel like I'm finally going to move out of the nl50 trap that I've been in for so long... =)
I didn't achieve my goal of making nl200 in 1 year, but at least i made nl100 in 1 year. Hopefully in the next year I'll be a nl400-600 reg and start 24 tabling like nanonoko 


Las Vegas Help!

So me and my friends are going to LV around Jan 14th. Where should we stay? Where should we go? Is there possibility of meeting any of u LPers?
Start of HU last 3 days
Zalfor, Oct 26 2009
So I recently made the switch from 6 Max to HU play. I'm currently 4 tabling HU and still trying to figure out how to play the game well. Right now, it's been really fun punting the shit out of my opponents, but I can totally see a bunch of leaks in my game. I definitely want to better my game and become a great player. I ran pretty well and I'm getting better, so here are the results of the last 3 days:
If anyone wants to talk to me about nl50, nl100 HU or 6Max def. PM me and we can discuss some poker stuff. I'm always down to discuss theory and have people sweat me / sweat others for a while.



sleepless run
Zalfor, Oct 25 2009
After being sucked out on multiple times, and people hitting <5% against me twice and getting sucked out on 200BB deep multiple times I decided to double down and play for the long haul tonight. I ended up running really badly, but overall I see my HU game improving dramatically. I can make plays at people now and instead of being a nit life, I'm bluffing in good spots too. I'm improving and so is my winrate. Except the suckouts ofc...

First Sesh in a while
Zalfor, Oct 22 2009
So today I played for 1.5 hours 4 tables of nl50 HU. Was pretty fun and pretty easy games, but ofcourse with my luck I'm 4.5BI below EV in 1k hands...
Anyways, this hand really says a lot about my sesh:

Still lookin for girls, jobs, and all that, but I'm def. a lot more emotionally stable. These games seem easier now since I've been thinking a lot about theory of poker rather than 12-16 tabling 6 max. Still, BR at 2.3k, got another 1.7 to go before i start playing nl100.
no motivation, no job
Zalfor, Oct 12 2009

No one ever bets the turn
Zalfor, Oct 07 2009
for some reason, no one ever bets the turn.
things looking up.
Zalfor, Oct 06 2009
I got some job interviews, I got some more money from poker, and things are going well for me and girls i guess.
Things are looking a bit up right now... hopefully I can keep this going.
