So like, my blog sucks and stuff. I'll try to stop the crying and just like be fun n' stuff and maybe drunkpost from time to time. Anyway, I found some really nice youtube-clips from HSP that I'd like to post:
- HSP; "Best Of Mike Matusow" (wow, you know how gay that sounds?!")
- "Phil Hellmuth Finest Moments" (the beginning is kinda bad, but the rest is kinda funny, mostly since I can't stand Hellmuth)
Ok, so I’m down a bit today too. Not a lot or anything but just over a buy-in. The good thing is that I’m playing good. I’m a bit more passiv then uselly since I’ve found out that most of the regulars on Unibet are really callingstations loves to slowplay overpairs pf and call to the river even if the board is something like 22399 and half the table saw the flop… Anyway, I didn’t really catch any hands or anything (2 sets in over 2 hours of multitabling and no action on either of them) so I’m kinda happy with the result. I’d like to thank Trey for his blog-post where he made fun of people (me?) bitching which made me realise that I just should be able to take this shit. It’s not the end of the world, so what I’f I hit a bad run of card, lost a few buy in and then tilted away 2 or 3 more? It’s not good or anything, but I’ll just have to deal with it like a man.
My downswing has soon reached 8 buyins, my overpairs has been in the read for like a week and if I flop top 2 the flushdraw will hit on the river. The good thing is that I don't pay them off anymore. I don't think I've had one swing this bad before, but I guess that it's time for it now. My br is down to 3.8k and I'll move down if I hit 3.5.
Edit: I'll just delete this because I look stupid enough as it is. So basicly I played bad and ran even worse so now I'm down on less then I had when I moved up to NL100 a week ago or something. I got mad, posted a stupid post and looked stupid. Trey made fun of me. Me pwned.
Anyone knows how long it'll take before I get my regcode?
Anyway...
...this day will probably go to history as one of the worst I’ve had as far as poker goes. I down about 500 USD on NL100 due to me being allin for +100bb with draws 3 times without hitting one of them (I was drawing dead on the biggest one), never hitting anything and not getting any action on my big hands. Then I guess I played some hands pretty bad too. It’s all good anyway, I’ll learn some modesty and I can hopefully keep from getting to cocky. In the end I actually played really good and didn’t call shit unless I had odds, which often is a leak for me. No hard tilting or anything. Anyway, I decided that it was finally time to get pokertracker since I felt that I really need it now. I need to find out how my pairs, sc’s and such are doing and I’d really much like to know if there’s any more obvious leaks in my game that I can find from PT. I think that maybe I’ve been focusing to much on fast profits and to little on actually getting better and even if I’ve become a much better player now then I was a month ago I feel that I probably could do much better. Anyway, the lessons for the day is:
FE doesn’t exist vs random halfstacks.
Don’t call when your blocking bets gets raised…
Also:
I'd like any tips about how to use pokertracker and a few pointers about how to auto-classify players.

I'm not playing scared at least. Also, the other dude was a bit of a maniac so I think he could've had any overpair and some other stuff. Maybe I played it bad anyway.
Ok so I think I’m catching a cold or something. I’m really slow and tired right now and I’ve been so for a while. I played 2 session today and the first was really horrible in the beginning, tried to bluff a few calling stations and had some bad beats but since people suddenly decided to pay me off all the time it ended ok. I didn’t lose that much. The secound session was one of those “meh” session and the only hand that I can recall now was like the last orbit I played. I raised AK from ep, the flop came like T82 with two diamonds. I had the Ace of diamonds. I bet, got a call and since I had a note that the other dude was kinda passive I figured that he probably had like a ten or a flushdraw, which I should probably be able to get him of. I bet 2/3 PSB on a 9 turn and he calls again. He calls and the river brings a brick so now I kinda thought that he might have monster (straight or set) some times but mostly a busted straightdraw or a weak hand like AT or something so I just pushed him allin for just over a PSB and the son of a bitch calls me with 97 of diamonds for secound pair and a busted flushdraw. That was like hand of the week worhty… So basicly I’m about half a buy in or so down today.
Anyway, since I was kinda tired I decided that I should probably not play anymore and while I’m waiting for HSP ep3 to be downloaded I watched some old PitF-video where he plays 6-max. I really liked to watch it since he brings some new ideas from time to time and seems really aware of what the other dude might have. I feel that I should probably try to be a little bit better on that. I’m also thinking that I maybe should make a video and post somewhere to try to get some critisism on my game. I’m basicly a winning player on NL100 now but that’s mostly because the players on Unibet sucks big time. They can’t lay shit down, they minreraises high pockets pre flop and god knows what. I pretty sure that I’ve got some kinda big leaks too but it’s just that I’m not quite as retarded as the rest of them. Would anyone be intressted in watching a video of me (both lower stakes players who wants to learn and good/decent/not outright bad players that could help me improve)? Also, is camstatia good and still free to try out? If it is I’ll probably try it like this weekend or the next one or something.
I got a new teacher in school today. Some hotshot-“I write books and stuff about this shit”-wannabee-mini-Hitler who actually was a lot nicer that one could expect. He looks really a lot like someone who tries to hard to be a hard ass but he was respectfull, smart and a good instructor. Some girl who sat next to me seemd a bit afraid of him thought. That kinda reminded me of being 15 and watching Terror on Elm Street with some random girl who didn’t mind short skirts.
Hear ohh God fearing people! So is it said in the scripture; Thou shall not min-raise. God hates the heretic min-raisers whom tries to get some extra value out of their hands but cannot bet like men. He who min-raises migth win a few extra chips of silver, but their betrayal of the holy lord will cost them dearly when they try to cross the river. He who min-raises will never be able to lay down a hand and his overpairs will allways be cracked by gutshot straight draws.
And remember, God loves those who spread the love and even ugly girls need loving. If you want your overpairs to hold up God will help you if you from time to time fuck an ugly girl when you can’t find something better.
So I read that somewhere and stole it to put as my MSN-quote. Dunno where I read it, but it might’ve been in some sign on this forum or 2+2 or something. Whatever, it’s a really nice quote and I think that there’s a lot to learn from it. I was really upset in the beginning of the session because I keept losing to bad beats vs shortstacks, like AJ vs A3 allin on a J73 board for 50 bb or so and he gets a 3 on the turn. I did however continue to play and suddenly I started to hit some hands and now I’m up like 2 BIs for the day. The funniest hand by far was when I raised TJs from the CO or the position before CO, can’t remember, and some dude reraises me to 9 (ie; 5 to call for me) and we’re both 150bb or so deep. I call and knows that he pretty much have AA-QQ or AK here 95% of the time. As I said, I hate minreraises. The flop comes something like JT and a rag rainbow and I check/raised him kinda strongly since I didn’t want some evil scarecard to come off. He reraised me again and I thought that he might have JJ or TT, but since I’ve got JT that’s unlikely and I put him allin. He called and showed AA and my two pairs held up. The he said this;
FishyGambler> you should re-consider your life, dusty
I love it when I take money from people who plays really stupid. Much better then sucking out or winning coinflips.
