i recently began playing NL100 6m because i want to get better @ different games, and chose a level im over rolled for. i have played a small sample of 10k hands, and i have misplayed a ton of hands, and i was hoping some of LP could review some of my hands and gimme any advice that you have. thanks guys

1. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414543 -when he lead the flop, i figured i was most likely good, and had planned to get it in on the turn, once that 2 fell, it made a set less likely and i thought i was ahead.
2. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414545 -bad call down?
3. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414546 -i am incapable of folding AK?
4. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414548 -guy had 3b my 3.5x raise earlier from CO or button to like 18 or more so and shows 52d so i figured that info coupled with such a huge raise shoving could be profitable here.
5. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414549 -3b this flop ok? what amount if so?
6. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414592 -i guess i have seen other players play AK like this, and he is cbetting this flop everytime so i figured shoving might be profitable since he cant call w/o a high pp this deep(150BBs) i wouldnt think, so AA/KK would have to be his range to call
7. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/414550 -should i play a little slower?
8. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/416756 -idk wtf i was doing. i tried to bluff flop, then turned an oesfd and c/shove =O
9. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/417753 -i shoved for value
10. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418160 -i get a little confused in situations like this
11. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418161 -tried to bluff, guess i should do this
12. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418168 -backed into it, shove river ok?
13. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418169 -this ok w overs and a draw?
14. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418174 -std vs ss
15. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418178 -internet lagged on ftp so i accidentally clicked raise again thinking it just didnt click since it does that sometimes, and i figured after he checks flop behind he isnt calling shove.
16. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/418256 -im no good @ HU, and didnt intend on playing HU, but after he c/c flop and leads pot, i put him on a draw trying to rep the K, so shoved. probly awful but this is the shit i need input on. what should i have done.
17. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/420024 -does he rly have a Q? std.
18. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/420178 -i need to stop clicking instacall putting ppl on draws all the time. how could i play this better(obv folding n not calling)
19. http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/421294 -again 2 overs and a flush draw i figured id go w it. bad?

i made an NL10 FR video for a few friends that i might release to some microstakes players who may be struggling. i havent 100% decided to release it yet but if anyone wants it just PM me and ill get back to ya in the next day or so if i decide to release it. it will only be available to ppl who play NL25 and lower and who have been @ LP and are contributers.

PS and also possibly timdawg since he needs all the basic FR knowledge he can get. -_-vv

This year started off very well @ the beginning, however recently has been tough. whenever i run bad, i try to find more positives than negatives in it, and this is no exception. this is not a whining post, because im not upset about running bad. i made a deal with my girlfriend that if i can make 20k come beginning of may i dont have to get a summer job, which i think is definitely doable playing FR as i am. however, recently i just feel like all im doing is just trying to safely beat NL200 FR and none of my tiny stabs @ NL400 have gone well. that said, i always see higher stakes players making great reads and stuff, and all i feel i ever do is play my hands when i have them and fold them when i do not. it kinda becomes repetitive and i feel as if i am not progressing. i kind of want to get back into 6max and integrate that into my games because i want to begin getting better at poker and i want to start progressing as a player. does anyone have any advice to me as far as how to begin progressing/stop playing the mundane boring style of betting when i have it blah blah and learn to bluff, pick off bluffs, make solid reads, and all that stuff. i feel like i have the capability to do it, its just i never have. any advice would be greatly appreciated.

-thanks, shane.

so last 3 days ive lost whatever i was up on the month. not much roughly probly 3k or so. ive been running awful @ NL200. my bad run has been more in the fashion of cooler after cooler instead of really being sucked out every big hand. ive just had so many setups like oversets and overflushes and stuff.

the best part is im not really upset. i just want to know i can beat NL200 playing 16 tables is all. this bad run as actually taught me a lot. first not to move to NL400 bc im not good enough and bc i want a 20k roll before doing so. secondly that i am emotionally handling this shitty run pretty well. i am not rly upset about it and that will come in handy down the road as i aspire to play professionally sometime down the line. hopefully in the upcoming year i can make a good amount of money and find the time to put in a lot of hands per month. i really wanna be playing NL400/NL600 by summertime and be deeply rolled for it. i have to improve my game a ton as i dont think im one of the better regs @ NL200.

gl and have a nice new year,

things have been going pretty well for me pokerwise recently. i attempted some sessions @ NL400, one of which went very well and the other two sucked, mostly due to me playing poorly and i basically ended about even. i had been 1-2 tabling soft tables before that which went pretty well tho. i think i am good enough to beat the game so im just going to choose soft tables and sit at them if i see em, otherwise just grind NL200 to platinum star and hopefully some good grinding money. im also going to begin to take up PLO. im gonna watch some cardrunner vids and probly play some PLO200. whats a good roll for PLO200? im also possibly interested in looking into getting some teaching for PLO or FR but i havent decided that quite yet.

take care noobs.

so ive been focusing on FR recently for the past few months and it has been going pretty well recently. it was a struggle and a grind at first because i was new to it and had to adjsut to the nittiness and learn how to play well. i thought i was playing well and running terrible and i was running terrible, but playing ok. then i got a coach and man my game has transformed. i am running better and playing SO much better. now my BR is healthy enough i am going to begin integrating 6m into my game selection on ftp and maybe stars possibly but doubtful. GL ME. also i am beginning to miss neilly blogposts. if anyone knows him tell him i anxiously await his next one. i am bored cuz im waiting for my next class and just finished my exam.

GL ALL,

so the past few days ive been playing as much as i can because i have received some coaching and i feel like i am playing the best fullring poker i have ever played. i understand it really well and am playing great, but still running bad, but its ok. i understand now when everyone says they have these massive streaks where they run bad, mine has gone on a while, maybe not as long as some of yours, but i almost feel better having gone through it to be honest.

ill post a really cute hand i played earlier:

played pretty well. i feel i am beginning to understand the game SO much better and play so much better as well. the first session i had went -3+ buyins but i played really well. had some tricky hands and a few sick beats but it happens. this evenings session went really well and those are the results from it. i think i played super well. probably the best i have @ NL200. things are looking up i think.

enjoy the night,
shane
