I honestly didn't play well, but I ran like complete garbage -_-
Got way too passive and had a shitty image pretty much everywhere. 2 barrels never worked, everyone folded when I had something, if I had jacks, he had queens, if I had 2pair, the board would pair and counterfeit it etccccccccccccccccc.
Bleh.
I think top set cost me about 3 or 4 buyins today.
It's 2 am but I'm gonna go for a run -.-
EDIT: I had a hilarious W$WSF of 34.7% and an AF of 2.7.. It's kinda hard to win pots when you miss every single board and get called every single time tho.
EDIT2:
I guess the won without showdown number isn't that great, but at least I can say I'm running bad in all-in situations
One thing I've been having trouble with is playing hands like 88-99, or KJ/KQ whatever, since people don't give up nearly as often as they do at .5/1 It's harder to play those hands when 9 tabling 1/2 than .5/1 for sure.
Like I have 99 on a 776 flop, I don't know if I want to raise his cbet, but I also don't know if I want to check call check call etc, meh. Probably just good to c/r them a bunch, protect likely best hand and make my check/raises less 'nuts, air or draw'.
There was also a hand I really really misplayed, JJ UTG, 3 callers, including two GIGANTIC donks (like '3rd worst pair in a 3bet pot to a raise on the flop, I probably should call down').. One of the donks (the biggest donk) leads a 789 flop super weak (he does this with any pair) so I call cause eh, raising with 3 others in the pot is kinda bad.
Second donk calls as well, turn is rag. He makes another retard bet. River is a ten and I obv have essentially the nuts, anyway, he bets bigger and I figure he probably has nothing so I just call trying to get an overcall.. Which in hindsight, I realize was completely retarded. I managed to forget there was a lower end straight too, lost soooooooo sick much value, since he'd probably have called a raise at least. Dunno if he'd stacked off (150bb deep).
I shouldn't complain tho, this is my total month so far, I ran pretty good at NL100, a couple of buyins above expectation there. Still would hav been more fun to run good at 1/2
I'm sure I'm losing way more than I should in non-showdown hands tho, need to work on that..
since it's hard to read, i have QQ, i raise, big stack calls, flop 2 8 9 rainbow, i bet 1000, he calls, turn is 6, i bet 200 (supposed to be 2000), he raises to 2k, i call, river is 10, i check, he push, i call, he shows 87o? wtf
i just remembered about the rakeback thing on rednines, i have about 105 on there..so i'm gonna try to actually use br management this time, mostly playing $5 sit and goes and 10nl
P.S. i just started playing DJMAX online. get it mother fuckers. shit is mad ballin yo
5k hands of 1/2
35k VPPs to go before supernova (8.8k cleared so far this month in 20k hands).
Some NL200. Biggest difference seems to be more aggressive regs, and way less super soft tables. I don't mean that the tables are super hard or anything (millions of idiots), but it takes quite a bit more searching to find tables that look good (ie lots of guys with 70~80bb, since most regs tend to top-off pretty fast if they drop below 100bb).
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/328732 - Valuebetting (lol) http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/328599 - Didn't want to 3bet cause the initial opener is pretty loose so I'll get into a weird spot and he'd probably pay off fairly well if I flopped well. ZekGB is pretty fond of squeezing too so this worked out nicely, nice to win a flip with all that dead money
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/328800 - Boooooooooh. Snapshove to rep AK and 2+2 guy calls after tanking for a while (I assume he's 2p2 since he has the 2+2 deity, Omgclayaiken/Jman, as his avatar). Flop was =[
Best sleep of my life I say, but this is not random. Its the end of the term and I had papers and naturally I let things pile up, and im a 4th year student.
Since last week I have been averaging 3 hours of sleep, and starting from thursday it was just insane. 2 hours of sleep on thursday night. went out for caps birthday out until 4am , 7 hours of sleep on friday. 4 hours on saturday and 0 on sunday.
so monday 6 i was out and only got up to piss at 12in mid night, and now im having a nice breakfast.
i got all the shit done... moral of story, you never get punished for doing things late and letting stuff pile up
i havent done song of the day for awhile: here is todays
I think i heard this first when i was 9 and liked it immediately
5071 hands played
A bit over 2k VPPs cleared
37.6k VPPs to go
Ran a bit worse today than the previous days (lol run bad at 4.7ptbb/100.. right), but also felt like I played a bit worse. Although this could of course be explained by the tables being a little less good (they were ridiculously donktastic this weekend), and just playing some people who weren't too fond of folding.
My W$WSF was ridiculously low tho so I probably did something wrong. Maybe didn't 2 barrel enough or steal checked pots enough.
Not a lot of interesting hands.. But I did have to fold KK pre-flop once (that makes it about 2 or 3 folds in like 7~800 000 hands). http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/328037
Up just over 2k for the month, still undecided if I'll do 1/2 or just .5/1 until I'm supernova and then jump into the crypto 2/5 games.
EDIT: Wee, 2.8~k finally arrived in neteller. Now there's only 4k left on rednines, which I have to wait until I hear back from support before I can move.
Decided I am going to become strictly an MTT player. There is more excitement for me in tourneys and I hate thinking too much in cash games. If anyone wants to talk poker or give me tips my aim is : fookage
Note - If I don't respond to you it's because you aren't on my level.
well as you all know i upgraded with a radeon 1950 pro and also to 2 gig ram. WOW the card is AMAZING, and the ram has certainly helped a lot. but the card is ><
anyway so i thought i´d try out some modern games. i only have athlon 3200+ and of course midrange card/ram so didn´t expect much. but wow the performance i got was amazing, solid frame rates on high resolution and high option settings. i went so much as trying the demo´s hacked Very High graphic settings and a 1400x1000 resolution with crysis (altho obviously it was shite=)
anyway , well i dont play games and the best graphics thing ive played recently is some shitty free mmos. so i´m really not used to sitting down and seeing screens like this............WOOOOOOOW:::::::::::::?????? it was like photograph quality, like as near to realism as i´ve been, including my brief time on gothic 3 and morrowind
(screens from Call of Duty 4 demo and Crysis demo (not taken by me))
this is just godly insane =D and so shiny ><
as for the gameplay, CoD4 seemed solid enough. Crysis had a different, less clostrophobic feel to it and once i realised that it let me do different things.
like first i tried getting in a car on the beach and charging the enermy and then running away coz i suck
then i figured out i have a cloaking device and played like metal gear for a while. i snuck up and killed them then thought hey ill get in the boat this time and sped across the lagoon machinegunning everything and cutting down trees and people left and right
sseriusly the cloaking ability felt just like playing metal gear live action fps it was sweet =D
How the fuck could I miss this?!!? I am on LP 24/7 all week and I miss it?!!
I was just informed but Ill leave my original post.... BRB reading neillys blog again.
Original Post
Where is he?
He is very active on sundays, and this is about time I log on to LP.net to read his blog.
WTF is going on?
In his last post he said he won a 2k donkament, and was playing 400nl and running hot, so I was sure he is gonna last a week. its only been like 4 days.
Neilly if you are out there, write a blog and post some hands and write your thought processes like you did last time in your blog.
I am seriously not berating you or bein sarcastic, you have interesting way of doing things.... even though you have a discipline of a baboon.
So, I've decided: I need to get supernova before the month is over. That means playing about 5k hands a day (ok so technically I don't have to, I can get away with a bit less, but there'll probably be days - ie christmas - when I don't feel like playing, so 5k sounds good), which when 9 tabling translates to about 6 hours of poker a day.
Cleared 4k FPPs.
Playing NL100 until I get all my money from rednines onto stars (although I'm kinda rolled for 1/2 again on stars, despite cashing out 2k ).
How different is 1/2 on stars from .5/1 btw? I kinda need to 9 table at least to do this, and 9 tabling .5/1 on stars is pretty easy (it feels so relaxing compared to getting 3bet every hand when playing 1/2 on prima).
Alright so first of all, friday afternoon I buy a keg for my friend's birthday party and he buys one too, sweet, fuckloads of people and beer.
Second of all, it's tradition to float any beer that is left in the kegs the next day, so yesterday all of my very close friends and I wake up, eat some food, and start to play beer pong, flipcup, and a game I call sit around the keg and pass the tap til it's gone.
Ok, fast forward to 10pm and i'm completely obliteratedly drunk, the kegs are finished and I'm so fucked up. We go to this other guys house for a party that he didnt even know about rofl, and I go on a few adventures with my friends in my truck because no one would let me or any of my friends drive (wtf? seriously)
Eventually I make it home, and wtf, two of my other friends are at my house playing rock band and I'm not even there, sweet, so I sit down and start playing with them and I start talking to this girl who happens to be my neighbor. I can't help but to notice this other guy's truck is at her house and we're supposed to be hooking up. She tells me that she's with him now and that's why she has been acting like she has. I gave her a standard "Go fuck yourself, I hope you die" text message. Finished playing rock band, logged on pokerstars and proceeded to dump god only knows how much cash, I have 500 dollars in my account right now, I've never played drunk poker but I was literally life tilted and just wanted to fucking hurt someone as bad as I felt.
Poker obviously didn't work and so I call her, we talk for a couple hours and pretty much I come out looking like a big pussy and she won which is bullshit, but whatever. Anyways, I'm still drunk as im typing this at 1130 in the AM which I think is a beautiful thing.
Hopefully I'm gonna take down the sunday 100g today which would probably be the only thing that could ever soothe my pains of the moment.
Well the last couple weeks really.
Taking only 9 credits I had my cruise control on until last 2-3 weeks ago when shit started pile up. For last week I've only had 3hr/sleep on avg. but finally got my shit done 2 of the toughest papers along with presentations and other shit. I just finished my last paper 4 hours ago
I only played ~25 hours of poker which is disgusting, but 3K profit so ship it
last but not least i got to play some guitar today and decided to record this
the only song I seem to wanna play on guitar
i might redo it with electric and some effects.
just a few more. in the 3rd picture you can see the RTS view. the view blurrs and changes to overhead and you have the feel and interface of an RTS, it´s pretty cool.
