i changed the file to the picture i wanted, but when i did that it cut off the top seats in the fullring game. how do i effectively change the image to a paint image and still retain all the ftp table elements?

just got home from watching the spain italy match @ espn zone, so that was mad fun. the ref in that game really sucked it hard. that was about the stupidest yellow card to villa ever, not to mention the countless fouls he neglected to call. all in all it was a nice day, but now im home, and i have little desire to play so im just relaxing. probly going to stake my friend for a few tourneys or w/e and just relax.

still trying to learn razz, and little by little im getting slightly better. once my cunt of a friend decides that im more important than hanging out with his girlfriend things will really take off and i think withing 2 weeks or so, assuming he helps me w progression(or whenever i get out to see him where he lives) i can be playing pretty decent stakes to make some good money.

if anyone wants me to ghost em for a FR session sometime PM me and ill do it for someone sometime over the next 10 days. just leave me the limits ur playing and why u want it and ill choose like 1-3 ppl and maybe we can set something up if u wish.

so i had that stupid 15+ BI downswing to start my month, which i came back from and was actually up money all in all @ one point, but due to playing bad the last 2 days, im about breakeven(down 100). compared to what it was i can live with it. i am kinda disinterested in playing FR right now for the most part, so i am thinking about learning HU or maybe razz and working @ those for the rest of the month. i want to expand my horizons as far as poker goes, and i wouldnt mind playing the big razz tourneys they got @ ftops and wcoop coming up. not ot mention i have sickass players to learn from...assuming he will stop being a total inconsiderate cunt. either way i will probly start watching some videos and play low limits where the money doesnt effect me so i can get better. i also wanna get into coaching sometime down the line, and also giving lessons helps me reconsider my game, so...

if anyone wants me to ghost em for a FR session sometime PM me and ill do it for someone sometime over the next 10 days. just leave me the limits ur playing and why u want it and ill choose like 1-3 ppl and maybe we can set something up if u wish.

so i played another session tonite, was tilt free and i played on a very even keel. i think i played relatively well, however i hit a lot of coolers again and i made a bad call or two probly.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/459040 - stnd
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/459041 - guy was playing 38/16 so his range is pretty wide here, obv not this hand tho
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/459038 - guy was playing pretty loose, so i figured id make the call pf in position. normally id either shove this flop or shove over his turn bet, but ive made those plays in past and people told me its awful w no FE and i can see a turn/river relatively cheaply so i opted to call, probly shouldve folded turn tho, but i picked up a gutshot as well
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/459039 - i dont even know...
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/459042 - OOPS THERE WAS NO HISTORY HERE

that brings the downswing (june) to:

i woke up this morning ready to play and grind back some of the losses ive had over the past few days, only to find i play 230 hands and lose 2+ buyins. i am borderline on life tilt and i had to shut ALL of my tables the second after the last hand i played where i lose almost a buyin so stupidly i shouldve just fucking folded.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458790 - can i fold this?
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458788 - stnd ss flip
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458786 - shouldve folded, probly somewhat of a culmination of everything thats happened over this bad run, but not reflective of how ive been running except in th fact that someone always has me one upped, but i shouldve folded nonetheless.

i literally had to shut down ALL my tables the second that last hand happened to stop myself from just going on a tilt rampage and chasing losses, which i guess in itself is a good thing that i have the self discipline to do that.

FUCK

edit: not FUCK, because something i just realized about this downswing is it is teaching me maturity and self control. i was just talking to someone who i sometimes get irritated with even though its probly something i should let blow off my shoulders, and given how i feel and am effected by the loss i couldve just gone off, but i didnt, and for me thats certainly a step in the right direction as a person. i am really level headed, but i have a v bad temper when pushed too far, but i have cooled off a lot in the last 2-3 years, and this bad run leading to me kinda taking things in stride letting that irritation @ this time despite the downswing and dealing with it so to speak is showing me some things.

p.s. does anyone know how to put a custom picture as the background in pokerstars tables?

im still running bad, and im approaching a -10BI swing, which im told is roughly the most one should experience for FR if theyre playing well and just running bad. i dont rly care im running bad too much, other than losing sucks. i realized a few things i can work on adding into my game today, which i do not believe i wouldve seen had i not been running bad. here are my stats and an accompanying graph since i began NL200 again:





the graphs dont really show it, but ever since i moved up, i have been getting coolered left and right. fortunately for me ive also been able to win enough to sustain the amount ive been getting coolered, and manage to only be down a total of ~1k.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458152 - stnd
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458153 - i shouldve raised preflop, but i flop bottom set and decide to get it in because i think his range is wider than hands that beat me and hes also short.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458154 - this is probly bad
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458156 - stnd
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458159 - i figured his range was pretty wide here for flatting the flop because he knows im cbetting this board with anything, so i figured id 2 barrel to try and put him off his pair thats not AA, but then i cannot rly do anything on that river since i no longer beat anything and he probly calls...any better way to play these spots?
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/458161 - same situation essentially as before

below are some hands from yesterday i didnt put in my blog:
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457677 - obv
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457681
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457684 - i think his range is wider than flushes, and i think he could show up a lot w draws here, but i probly played it a little fast given his actions
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457685 - i think my hand was very underrepped on river so i raised...
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457686 - was a stupid call by me, and i probly shouldnt have 3b in the first place, once i 3b i figured i should probly be calling
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457687 - stnd, wouldve folded to a raise
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457688 - seems about right

fortunately im not too discouraged and im probly going to grind a few more thousand hands tonite and tomrorow and continue the grind for the week. and i dont have to move down yet thankfully. any help or advice on those hands is greatly appreciated

so ive been getting consistently coolered or sucked out for the past week or so, but after todays session of dropping 5 BI i am posting some hands to get some peoples opinions. i am not using PAHUD no stats on anyone.

2. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/457414

feels good to be back @ NL200 tho, making more fpps and i feel i am playing pretty well. also had the desire to play more hands lately, so thats good too! i hope to maybe get in around 60-70k hands this month and get supernova too.

this is the 30" monitor i am contemplating getting. the only problem is that it is used or has used parts, but with it being under warranty and this guy having a high selling satisfaction i probably dont have anything to worry about right? ive never bought anything over ebay before so i am not sure how all of this works.

ANY THOUGHTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

also anyone who can help with pokerstars for paypal transfers. even if they arent plentiful amounts i just need to start getting some money on there so i can purchase it. reputable members only as there is that funky thing w paypal and i know you can cancel or some bs after sending.

also had the longest session of my life today playing nearly 4400 hands. it was a longass session where i went -4 BI @ lowest and was down 500-700 for most of the session. having just moved to NL200, this was what i wanted to avoid obviously and i ran a tad below expectation i think as i had one KK vs AA AIPF and an AA vs KK AIPF, both of which i lost. but i ended up even in the end and i am extremely happy with. i made platinum star too, and i am hoping i can reach supernova by end of the summer which would be GREAT!

i have been struggling in poker recently. ive been running kinda bad and ive been making some bad plays here and there, as they usually go hand in hand often times. this is ok, because i understand its necessary and if i continue to play well and play through it i will get my feet under me again. my concern is that im at a crossroads. i play NL100 and am well rolled for NL200. i choose to play NL100 because its cheap for me to get my confidence back and get my feet under me again. my problem is this...i currently play anywhere from 9-12 tables on my laptop, which for some reason i consistently lose on, much like ket mentioned has happened in his blog. i was wondering if it is better for me to play 6 tables and concentrate more on those 6 tables and try to crush and improve my winrate, or should i continue playing 9-12? do i trade off a potentially higher winrate and faster improvement for logging more hands and playing more? i see people playing 40k+ hands and i havent had the time to be able to do that, and now that im out of school i can either play 9-12 tables logging 30-50k hands a month, or play 6 tables and get nowhere near there. does playing only 6 tables make it more likely ill have a better month? what do i do?

also anyone who can transfer some paypal money to me for stars money would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
shane

i know that if i delete one of my drivers, upon installation it will automatically reinstall, which is pretty col. i was wondering if there is a way to do an easy system wipe, where i basically restore my computer to factory settings. any way to do this anyone?

ALSO does anyone have an HP monitor, and if so are they reliable and good? i am considering buying a 30 inch HP monitor since its like 900 all in all.
