so i went on supermegatilt after getting 10th in the 100$ turbo AQ vs KJ on a Q55 board and got 2 outed, woulda been chipleader and won 4k, instead i was down 200 for the session
i blew up inside after all the bad beats, panicked and did what i vowed i wouldn't do again, play hu underolled.
was so pissed and felt like i deserved the money
so..
it went down like this -
i join 6 hu tables, sitting out on 2 and keeping 4 running and alternating the two i was sitting out on.
my laptop keyboard was irritating me as well, and forced me to miss a couple big hands, after that fulltilt set in.
i went from being up 2 bi to down 7 bi in 5 minutes. then i lost another 4 bi
now i have less than 100$
i dont ever wanna fucking play micro or lowstakes poker again in my life
im going to make a deposit on my birthday to play midstakes tournaments and go from there
if i lose it, im sure u guys wont see me on LP ANYMORE.
im so tired of grinding for fucking coons ages to win penniesand get sickly bad beat out of all my money whenever i take a shot to win something real.

went to winstar world casino last night/yesterday morning, played for 8 fucking hours...jesus christ. there was a point where for 2 hours i didn't win a hand... and i could only play one.
i also figured it out...200nl at a casino is 2nl online...fish fish fish fish drunk fish EVERYWHERE. terrrrrrible play. I had AT on the button 6 handed and this dude called me w/ 53o, hit his 5. Same guy also shoved w/ 64o against AK and hit a 6 on the river...people shoving w/ mid pair low kicker like Q 6 on a AKQ83 board and getting called by people with like Q2...
absolutely amazing. But when you run bad like me thats not good. I played 3 hands in the first 4 hours, and they were 3 hands in a row, about 15 hands after i sat down i got AQs which i won a nice $160 on 2 pair, then next hand i got was AKo which i split, then after that hand i got AJs(which i decided was +EV b/c of all the fish) and i folded on the K 4 6 flop.
Betting is absolutely atrocious there. It's usually a standard $15-$30 raise from UTG
Then after that, you'll have atleast 4 people in the pot and a $30 bet can take it sometimes if no one hit anything.
After 6 hours of dry cards, my table finally got broken up and i got moved to another table w/ my manager (the guy who everyone told me to play hu and rape b/c he plays on fulltilt while at work and then bitches at me for blogging on lp...so revenge was very nice)..anyway my table had my manager (also the luckiest fucking person i've ever met) and 3 1000nl regs that didn't have enough people to play a table. Along with that was a drunk mexican who was the loosest guy i've ever seen, and a guy from panama. I show up w/ about $130, and i am super super super short stacked. theres like 4 people w/ about $700 (my manager, the luckiest man in the world) and the 3 1kNL regs), and everyone else had me covered. My manager bought in for 200, went busto. Then he bought in for 100, went busto. Then he went to the ATM machine, tried 3 cards, and couldn't get any money b/c he was maxed out. Then he goes to the bathroom, finds a $100 bill in a cup in a stall, and goes back and plays some more. He ends up having a $700 stack...looses some hands, and is down to about 400, when this hand happens....
* DONK ALERT *
Not sure about preflop betting, but i know there was some, obv.
Theres four people in the hand, and the flop is T J Q...My manager has K9 and bets out about 1/2 pot size. Everyone folds except for the panamanian who has TJ. He calls. Turn is like a 4 or something pointless. Manager bets out 40, panama makes it 120, boss makes it 250, panama calls. River is a K. Manager yells "FUCCCCCCCCK!" Random dude says "watch your language that K didn't do anything to you" manager says "That king did everything to me. Check" Panama makes a vital vital vital mistake... He bets 100 into a pot atleast 450. Manager says "i am soooo pot committed, i have to see it." so he calls. 9-K straight wins on the T J Q 4 K board...Unbelievable... and all my manager said was "great hand, you played that well, you did great, nice hand nice hand. Man you had a nice hand, great hand" I was embarassed. I can't believe my manager big league'd that dude like that... it was unbelievable.
Anyway, here's my 200nl real life graph from Winstar Tracker 3... that i made in paint.
So my manager lost 200, lost 100, found 100 in the bathroom, bought in, got up to ~700, lost some and ended finishing +$147. If i had PT3 running on him he would be about... 90/40/10 (not making this up, those are serious estimates) through about 600 hands.

(Vote): No
(Vote): He's lucky and great
(Vote): He's unlucky and terrible.
Things in my life have made a turn for the better. For the past 4 weeks I have been working in a factory for $9 an hour. I had no choice in the matter its the best I could do etc. I really haven't suffered as much as i thought I would and working for $9 an hour when you have nothing isn't that terribly bad. I had money to make ALL of my payments and take out a different girl every friday and saturday night and have probably the most fun ive had in a long time over the past 4 weeks. Tomorrow, however, I have an interview that im a shoe-in for doing much more sophisticated work. I'm gonna be setting up networks and stuff for random businesses making at least 1k a week up to 5k+ a week just depending on what it is im doing. Needless to say this is a pretty sick opportunity for a 19 year old with no college degrees or anything like that. The downside is that im a rural farm boy (well not really but i live in a farm community) and im moving to the capital of the world new york city. Pretty big change! I lived and worked in downtown Milwaukee for 3-4 months though so its not like i have no idea what im getting myself into.
I guess all of those years of being a computer nerd are gonna pay off because I'm potentially going to be balling way too hard and might actually have to save some money (whoa?) I've never done that before. I dunno where this job will lead me but it pretty much opens the doors to whatever I will want to do for the rest of my life and my opportunities are endless so I love my situation right now.
On to things you guys love to hear me write about, my degen poker career.
I OFFICIALLY started my journey from $0 to 100k yesterday. I sat down with 1k playchips, played for about an hour and had 18k playchips when i was finished. I played for about 2 hours today and i now have 200k playchips.
I'm not totally sure @ what point i will sell my playchips but probably when i start to become overrolled for the biggest playchip sng games so probably around 4-5 mil which will put me comfortably at $40-50 which is massively sufficient to start playing nl2.
Playing poker when its not about the money is so much easier its ridiculous, lets hope i can stay away from my bad habits which unfortunately are my downfall to not only poker but life. Stay out of the games I can't afford that's all i gotta do and this quest to 100k will be a ridiculously easy task.
gl all, and for the fucking love of god I hate my image on this site, I'm half way tempted to make a new username when I get to new york and you guys will never see me again. Quit fucking berating me and calling me a thief and other shit I never try to do anything but help people and get massively negative comments about everything I do and its insanely annoying.
i'm looking for that thread where the guy posted a hand ( i think it was a live hand ) and everyone was like wtf quad flush. instant classic thread but i can't find it
If I catch any of you guys breaking any rules on pokerstars, I will report you. Poker is serious business people and I simply cannot tolerate you people running around breaking rules like you own the place.
I'm actually offended by my own odor. Got home from a killer tennis session. Didn't want to shower because I knew I'd be gambooling and the A/C in my office sucks so I tend to sweat alot (especially my balls) when I play. Anyways, holy shit do I stink. I bet I could go down to the home depot and scare away some mexicans, man
It's Shinji Sasaki's (professioanl fighter) entrance theme, instrumental piece that's really good imo. Tried googling but I guess he's just not well known enough in the english speaking world for me to find any info and I don't speak japanese.
I cut out the entrance bit from the last shooto event which has most of it: http://mihd.net/ia4uhnj
Any help in identifying this song would be greatly appreciated =] The name of the 2nd song would be cool too.
Thanks.
I'd offer money on stars for it but I only have money on crypto, and they don't have p2p transfer.
EDIT: Chuiu on TL knew it, Yoshida Brothers - Storm
So yesterday while at work i got to thinking about the economy and poker. Now before i begin, i would like to tell everyone that i am very ignorant to this whole subject. All i know is that the economy is SHIT right now, and banks/insurance companies/housing is hitting the fan right now. I was reading up on it when i found a yahoo headline that said
"FDIC reports low on funds"
So i do know that an individual account is insured up to $100,000. Right now the FDIC is reporting they have $50 billion. They need over 1 Trillion dollars. They were saying they need to take out a loan from the government. Thats ATLEAST $950,000,000,000.
I know for a fact that they don't have the money. So a sortage in the FDIC means that when banks fail, and they don't have money, the "safety net" of the FDIC is failing as well. So if i can't get my money from the bank, i can't get money from the FDIC, that means there's no more money for me.
What i really wanted to touch up on in this post is this...I've never cashed out, i don't know what happens when you do. My buddy told me that on PS when you cash out you get a check from some bank in Atlanta....My thinking is, what if this bank doesn't have any money?? You can't cashout your roll, right?? So what happens when #1. my savings are gone #2. my checking is gone #3 my 300 roll on PS is gone???
A) Can #3, my roll, disappear?
B) Should i take all monies out of all account and just do it by cash??
Thoughts and opinions and answers on the BR thinking...
So i'm at work right now, checkin out some blogs on the 'ole liquidpoker.net... and i'm watching my boss play poker on fulltilt.
that puts me on lifetilt... grrr... he just yelled at me 2 days ago for blogging on here...
i found a way to get a such a high bb every single time omfg. lol obv im not sharing it ! If not for the god damn hand posted below, i would be at least 30bb again
anyway this is the reason i play limit. getting ur money in good and getting sucked out for ur whole stack. whereas in limit its just a few big bets. i fucking hate getting sucked out on in huge pots. really pisses me off so much that i just dont even wanna play nl anymore

and i would say i made some really good plays getting better hands to fold. (obv im folding to any aggression) my favourite hand winning the pot with 27o rofl. this is one situation where i think making miniraises are very good. obv im repping AK and the board is paired its so unlikely he has that K. i believe he had a lower pocket pair in this hand.

in this hand i put him on a weaker made pair or some type of fd. i open strongly so i certainly was repping hand strength. i dont know the maths but i think if he folds here half the time this bluff is good.
