played a couple of 3 hours sessions...ended the first one down about 2-3 Buy ins...2nd session i just got done...and broke even. i gave my friend $5 and i entered LAPT step 1 and i'm at step 3 now. WTF if i go all the way! but anyways...i'm a little under $40 and i started with $54. i'm only down a couple dollars (i'd still be in the 50's if it wasn't for the donation + lapt)
how many times am i gonna flop a set, get it in, and lose to a turned/rivered straight
how many times am i gonna flop the nut straight, only to have the board pair on the turn
jeez i always write negative shit on this blog, when am i ever gonna write something good
hi lo. so i've been playing this lately... .01/.02 pl hilo... real ez game. two nights ago i ran $5 up to like 25, lost $20 of that at texas hold em in $2 HU SNGs and a stupid .02 table where people were pushing all in preflop...i lost two hands where i put $3 pre (QQ, rivered gutshot, 88, rivered pair) which brought me back down to $5, and i'm back up to $25 again after playing some hilo today and yesterday...but i don't really know what's good etc. people just like gettin taken to value town when you have the nuts.
so basically what should i be calling with preflop? how should i play draws...etc etc. you know, basic noobie questions. and i see like 4 people limping pre every hand, if i have a "mediocre" hand should i be limped also, or is it just raise/fold preflop
is pretty easy. i dominate the 2 cent tables. up like $15 2 tabling for 2 or 3 hours, would've been up $25 but i lost a sick 3 way all in (board 10 3 2, two hearts, i had like 1010j9 or something i don't remember).
nl2, i sit down with $120 which was about the average chip stack. i start on the button, 9 hands in on my SB, aces, i raise to $12 preflop (2 callers), i shove on a board with 2 spades on it, get called by a set
