OMG if one more person gets this wrong i am going to flip my SHIT.
ACCORDING TO THIS WEBSITE...
"Nuts
The nuts are the best possible hand for a given board. For example, if the community cards read 2-3-4-K-Q with no possible flushes and you are holding 56, you have made THE NUTS (23456 straight)."
IN OTHER WORDS AA IS NEVER THE NUTS UNLESS THERE IS AN ACE ON THE BOARD AND NO POSSIBLE STRAIGHT OR FLUSH.
SHIT!!!
"you have an over pair, you got nuts" no. nuts = top set on rainbow flop like 2d 6s 7d. so if you have 7h7c YOU HAVE THE NUTS.
I was playing very solid - I told to myself to not to do any fancy actions, play straigh forward and wait until those donks give me their money so they did. I have few interesting hands from today i want to share. I will start from the hands am pround of
Villain was very aggro - we had 3 very similar hands almost in a row. In the first i had a TPTK and position, i checked behid turn for a pot control and he made an insta pot size bet on the river I called and he showed air. In the second hand he called my cbet, i checked behind turn and he insta pot the river again - i had nothing so i folded and thats the 3rd one:

i was browsing through some older posts and found a drunken FrinkX post something along the lines of value your decisions, not your outcomes..
im in the middle of somewhat of a painful downswing and for a while i think i was letting it get to me and letting it have a noticable effect on my play
rather than get down on myself im trying to find inner solace in the fact that the vast majority of decisions i made on this swing have been good
idk, now im just sounding like a prissy bitch but i think theres something to this; its like you have to have a solid inner core where you really believe you are doing the right thing and dont let the whirlwind of bullshit affect you
so now its time to buckle down and stop playing weaktight and get back on my way.. hopefully ill post 3k soon
Importing Hands From Email?by DarkDevildog, August 10
EDIT 2: I had to specially request the last x amount of hands from pokerstars because when you request hand history they only send you the last 200. Its better to do the last x amount because you just DL it from this server on pokerstars.com and it instantly imports into your database(if you save it to where HH goes)
EDIT: Fixed the problem, but found another. When i asked for the last day of playing, pokerstars fucked up and only sent me 200 hands & 2 tables instead of the 496 hands and 6 tables. So if you request hands from pokerstars, try to make sure you get them all so your database is accurate.
Just got back from chilling w/ Syntax for most of the day after playing some poker. Emailed myself the Hand Histories from pokerstars and PT3 won't import them. Does anybody know how i can get them to import? When i just copy the entire HH Code from email(just the actual hands, nothing to do w/ email) i get this error:

2008/08/10 22:12:10: PokerStars: Stopping auto-import.
then i stop it because its just making errors and not importing.
Well it was a very swing-like and long 2.2k hands for day one of 50PLO. I quickly ground out $50 at my printing monies limit which I beat at a steady 10pt/bb (25PLO FR). Then I decided to start my shot at 50PLO 6-Max. I've got my 5k in the bank for school now so everything I do from now on with poker will be about moving up and getting better. It felt really good to be able to take the steady fundamentals and game that I figured out at 25PLO FR and transfer it over to 6-Max. I figured it was going to be tougher than it actually was so it's a pleasant surprise that after a hectic and swing filled session I actually feel very good about myself and my game. I got started on the wrong foot for the first 1200 hands or so over-playing the limit so I pretty much went back to the drawing board after that point. Made some major adjustments to how I was playing and it worked out very well for me. I think that I should be able to be a consistent 10pt/bb winner at this limit by the end of the month and that is my current goal. The biggest thing for me is just to feel like I'm growing through the effort I put into the game every day and that I'm not just mindlessly logging hands. Graph of the day for lulz.
Hey fellas, so i went with my family who's visiting us from europe to the Falls, i had a really great time there. I also decided to go play some live since there are two casinos near the Falls, niagara casino and Fallsview Casino.
After dinner, i decided to go there solo since my family doesn't like much gambling and think im an addicted gambler and i'll prove them right this night lmao. My grandfather was a sick gambler and would spend all his paychecks on games and marijuana so my mom is strongly against gambling and smoking for obvious reasons. So i went to Niagara Casino since it was the one closer to my hotel and i didn't want to make a 30 mn walk to reach the Fallsview, first let me tell you that casino is not really great, you have to look for the entrance for 15 minutes before you find it and inside, it's just plain ugly.
I registered for cash games and got assigned a seat 45 minutes later -_- i put my stacks on the table and the dealer tells me the maximum buy-in is 100$, "isn't that 1-2$ no limit ?" i said and he told me yes but the maximum is 100$. Good start. So i put the rest of my chips in my pocket and post the bb, This was the first time i was playing with real cards and chips (im from Montreal we have only electronic tables) so i was kinda knew in things you could and you could not do.
I quickly noticed this table was sick juicy, there was that retarded aggro drunk guy on my right who was ordering beer after beer and was here obviously to spend his money gambling, great i was here to make money. On his left and to my right was this old dude, he had white hair and a white beard and was smelling like shit, he was probably running something like 85% vpip 25% pfr and would stack off with mid pair all the time. When he reloaded (every 2 hands) he would get a big stack of bills worth probably 4-5k$ from his pockets. When i saw the money i almost had a boner. There was this guy seating on my right who was half decent but it looked like a suffered some beats and was complaining/berating the drunk guy. The rest of the tables was 2 tight weak fishes, 1 obviously young internet player and the other seats were changing consistently.
It was a sick juicy game,the first playable and came 30 mn after i sat, i got AKo UTG+1, the half decent dude raised and i 3 bet him, the young internet player called me IP. Flop came 457 rainbow, the utg checked and i decided to fire a cbet, the young guy folded and UTG called, T hit on the turn, he checked i checked. An other 7 hit the river and paired the board, he checked and i push my remaining stack announcing im all-in, i put him at the moment on 66/45s or a combo draw. I thought he would never check the turn with an over and he started moaning about the board pairing and i knew when he said that my bluff would go through (remember it's only 50 bbs, i pushed for pot and he was getting 2 to 1). He folded and i took the pot.
Later on the next playable hand i get is AQo, Santa Claus (the old stincky guy, they called him Santa because he had a white beard) raised and i 3bet him, he was raising a lot of garbage, i got 1 caller and Santa called oop obviously, flop came Q35 rainbow. Santa donk lead and i 3 raise him, the other guy folded, Santa called (obv), turn is a 6, Santa has 50$ behind and checks to me, i push and he insta-calls me. He showed Q4, river is a 7. Standard bullshit, doesn't bother me that much and figured i would have many occasions to take his money.
So i reloaded to 100$, i get dealt rags and i don't know if it's everywhere the same but the dealers were extremely rude. One of this faggot wanted to give me a warning because i was speaking french with an other guy at the table who happened to be from France, i remembered i should only speak english while a hand is played but he could have told me gently, cocks sucking faggot. The dealers were changing every 30 minutes (dunno if it's standard or what) but many of them were very rude and would berate me even when i told them it was my first live game. "Don't put your cards behind your chips", and so on, i was starting to get really pissed by them and promised i would tip the minimum for the rest of the night.
Also they were urging the players to make their plays, and even one dealer called the clock on one player who had a hard time in a hand calling for his stack, WTF ? YOu guys tell me if it's standard or if it's BS i have no clue, but i hated it. I had to make a sign to them so they could give me 30 secs to think about a hand, i mean what the F is that ? Anyway i get dealt crap for 2-3 hours, missing sets std hands until i get dealt KK.
An EP weak fish opened and the guy i bluffed off from my first hand called, i swear to god i heard "Raise to 20$" from the dealer so i repop to 60$ and they were all looking at me stangly, in fact he raised to 12$ and they both insta-folded, i could not make it more obvious fuck me.
Nothing happened until i get dealt 88, 2 limpers already in and i decided to limp also, Santa called. Flop came 68T, check, check i bet 2/3 of the pot, Santa called and EP called, turn is a J. I bet, santa raised me and EP called, back to me. It was 3 am and it was like the 4th hand i played, after reflexion it was an easy fold since this guy cold called and the board was heavy connected pot but i fished myself into pushing putting Santa on two pair or something dumb and this EP guy on TP or something stupid (he just joined the table so i had no reads on him). They both snap-called me, Santa had 79o for the flopped str8 and the EP guy had 9Q, river didn't pair the board and my stack was gone, yeehaa !
I should have kept playing since it was really juicy but it was real late and the 50 bbs rule + the dealers were annoying as hell, so i decided to go back to the Hotel. My mother asked me how much i've lost the next day and when i said 200$, she looked at me like i was a pedophile and a loser, that was hilarious tho...
So if you guys are visiting the Falls and decide to play some live poker, i strongly don't recommend you go at Niagara Casino, this is one piece of shit place to play Poker if you ask me. Next time i go there i'll go to Fallsview.
------------------------------------------
Oh on a side note, online is going terribly bad, i think i dropped 20 bis at NL50 and i tilt a bit, which is weird since i didn't tilt for a couple of months and i think im really running like uber shitnitz. Hopefully it will turn around soon, /cross fingers.
I cant win im down over 3k now and it just keeps getting worse. I dont know what i am doing wrong i just get put in tough positions and cant make the laydown because i cant see trips or river Aces ;/ I wanna play but i dont have enough to deposit to keep me going. Anyone help me start to wiN?
Bohemian grove: World leaders satanic cultists?by PokerDoc88, August 10
Hey lately I've been doing a lot of looking into of conspiracy theories after seeing Zeitgeist. While some of what you see in Zeitgeist is obv bullshit, there is definitely some truth to it. The key message is to question everything, seek knowledge, and make up your own mind.
This is a series of 7 videos I found on youtube about a place called "Bohemian Grove". Watch and make up your own mind.
Am not really a new member of lp.net, am registered here since like 7 months, but I was posting on a polish version of this site - http://www.tlpoker.pl/ - but community on lp is much bigger so I decided to move my blog here. Hopefully i will get some more feedback on my hands. Lemme introduce myself - am Sebastian and am 22. For those who like gay pics thats me:
Now you know who you gonna help to Ok, lets talk some more about poker - currently my roll is about 2,2k$ and am playing NL50$ SH on Everest. Am calling it The swing room. There is a lot of donks - people who call you 3 streets with shit nothing and they getting some help on the river. But if you are patient - you will get paid Just watch this hand from my todays seassion:

Had a laugh? Ok, but the main reason I started this blog is to do my seassion revievs and hopefully get some feedback on my hands from you guys. Am playing tigh and solid poker against this everests donks, Am running like 17,5/15/4.25 and am doing very well for now, but I still need some line checks, so i will try to update my blog every 1-2 days to keep you guys busy My main aims for now are:

Ok, thats enough hands for now. But there is one more problem - what to do with hands like:
ATo/s, KQo, KJo/s, QJs, TJs, 77, 88
When am on blinds and the pot is limped to me. It's like mp limps, sb limps, and am on BB with upon holding. Should I limp in as well or make a strong raise and rape those mothafuckazzz??? ;P
And finally to avoind being monothematic each time I will post a blog entry I will put here some pics I made cuz am into a photography. Lets start from my good friend. I threat her like my sister cuz am the only one so i took care about extending my family Her name is Paola and shes 23, take a look at her if you want
When i joined this site, like everyone else i wanted to learn more and play better poker.
Since joining this site in may i've made made about $50 bucks...
Since i started playing online in january until may i was up $180
All i've done since may is read read read ya'lls posts and such to see how i can improve my game. I do what you guys say others should do in similair situations and i just lose more money b/c your like "blah blah blah be aggressive, ship ship ship." One hand i had AK. There was a flush and str8 out and i kept calling down b/c he was really loose. the riv was a K and i won a nice pot w/ pair of kings and ya'll bashed me for not shoving. wtf it's just a pair, i knew what i was doing, call down b/c he's loose and theres so much that beats me. Based on my read calling was +ev.
Today i was told i played this wrong...

Let me explaine what i did and why...
First off, we're heads up. Heads up, big hands are not going to happen nearly as often as they do full ring, 6 max obv. He has been very aggressive with 4 players, heads up he was very very tight, but i've seen him reraise allin 3-4 times prior to this hand
I call the blind, he reraise 3x. I call again. Flop comes out, i have a pair. He bets out 1/3 pot and i have a pair. Obv call hu. River comes and it gives me two pair. At this point, since this guy is low on chips and i am obv ahead, i'm taking him to value town. I wanted to get his chip stack down to where #1 he puts in a good amount now #2 he has to shove on riv. River comes and he caught runner runner flush. BFD, there is nothing i can do about that. I wouldn't play this hand any differently 100% of the time. He played like shit and got lucky. Thats life. I don't know how you can say i played it wrong.
ANNNNYWAY, done ranting and raving. I had a good day in poker... online, i got 2nd in that tournament which paid a nice $48, and IRL, i played cash game 50nl, bought in with 20 and walked out with 69...
Total profit = 114 bucks.
Money in teh banks.
In life news, i played golf friday with the head coach of #18 in the nation in highschool football Euless Trinity...
Bunch of HUGE ASS SAMOANS... This is the Samoan war prayer they do before every games
scary shit.
Anyway, josh hamilton is a fucking bad ass. He had 98 RBI's at the half way point of the season. Since everyone here is European and don't know anything about baseball, but know a lot about soccer, let me put it in terms you'll understand
98 RBI's by the allstar break is like a goalie kicking 1,000,000 goals in 2 games.
I'll probably make a bigger write up later but man.
I knew lesnar was training with sherk but he's improved so much. Jesus what the hell if lesnar can do that for 5 rounds nog is in trouble wtf?!?!!? I'm in disbelief... he sure showed me.
omfg gsp is not from earth. This was more impressive then just finishing fitch in the 2nd round. Super cardio, super skills, super everything just destroyed fitch.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/501663 - lol this wasn't really planned (ie it wasn't like "I'm gonna bet small to induce" it was "I'm gonna bet small to get him to call with his 3rd pair"), but I'm obviously snapcalling after making such a small bet.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/501611 - Bleh, I thought he was completely FOS here, last time he flopped top set he donked out pot then checked a boat turn.. Meh.
It would probably be less ugly looking if I played better
In other news I'm starting to get the old wanderlust again. That is, shopping around for new pokersites to play! Playing on stars is fun, but longterm it's stupid, paying taxes when you don't have to just because you like the software is, well, dumb.
So it needs to be european:
iPoker Network <- Already have money here.. And it's probably my best choice, huuuuge network, a million 2/4 and 3/6 NL tables (although I think most tables are bad ), and decent #s of tables for PLO up to 1/2.. Not so many at 2/4.
PartyPoker <- Not sure PLO traffic is great here..
Ongame <- not being able to reload without sitting out sounds lifetilting, I'm never playing here.
Svenska spel <- Playing on a site with only swedes sounds like a bad idea but maybe I'm wrong, are the games good here?
IPN (Boss Media) <- no clue.
Microgaming Network <- Hrm, I don't love the software and I dunno how much plo traffic they have.
Entraction Network (24h) <- I think I heard this is mostly just full of swedish nits?
Betfair Poker <- Software is :[ Not sure how the traffic is for PLO.
CryptoLogic Network <- I like playing here but the traffic isn't great (fine for 2/5 NL, dunno about PLO)) and the 2/5 games, used to at least, be full of nothing but nitty regs for NL..
Ladbrokes <- Is merging with microgaming.
I really feel like just putting all my money on william hill again and playing half/half PLO/NL.. they have enough games for that at least
