Okay so today i tried to play cashgame again.
I 5 tabled NL10 FTP 6 handed.
Was hell a fun but unfortunately i got some setups at the beginning ...
2xAA 3x KK lost 2x vs a set and 3tims vs 2 pair.
I was down -16$ after about 220 hands.
Lol i got super good preflop cards .... but whatever ...
then things became better and i made some good calls
furthermore got trips vs someones KK and a Full house > someone others full house myself and managed to go up to + 9$ in another 300 hands.
finally i made some bad plays and went down to -3$
But with my Last hand i called a smallstacks all in with 88
and so my final cahsgame sesseion results.
Playtime ---> 1 h 30 min. Hands568 VPIP 23 PFR17
Profit + 1,65$
Not too satisfied with the results but i was lots of fun
to play some cashgame again after a 1 week brake.
Then i continued to build up my SNG bankroll.
Time ---> 1h
SNG played ----> 5 x 2,50$+25
profit -> + 14,45 $
new SNG bankroll 98,33 $
I ran really hot at SNGs lately and i made a total of 15 buy ins in 17 SNG which is crazy
I know i wont sustain such a crazy winrate but still they seem so easy that i think my SNG bankroll will easily overpass my Cashgame bankroll till end of the month.
I think 5 buy ins / 10 SNGs is realistic considering i have an incredible edge over those players who are really
comparable to Party Poker Fixed Limit 5/10 cent players.
I've noticed that many people on LP, especially the micro/low stakes, had some bad runs throughout May. I was also the victim of this curse, losing 8 buyins from $190 to around $125.
I was beginning to get very frustrated, and would have probably quit poker if i didnt win my money back, cause i felt that if i couldnt overcome the run of bad beats, then i didnt have what it takes to be a good poker player, even though i put my money in ahead.
So... from losing 8 buyins, i put in a big session with my head screwed on and being very focused, i won all my money back and almost 3 buyins extra.
I'd like to thank my teacher LoLGiraffe who puts up with me, and helps go through my session notes to see if i made bad plays or i put my money in ahead, and gives suggestions to any flaws i have in my game.

---graph removed---
thats a little less than a week's worth of 10+1 sngs on absolute. i also took 10 shots at 20+2, winning 5 of them. on a $150 stake for two weeks, i was sitting on a bankroll of 600+ and asked if i could end early, the guy had no problems. he made a total profit of $345 in 1.5 stakes, so i think he was pleased.
over 68 games, i maintained 41.98% roi, cashed nearly 50% of the time. i'm gonna continue playing sngs for a while. because theyre ez.
I moved up to 25NL today. I played rather good while I was there but the session over all ended badly(like most). I got up to $91 dollars on one table... I was dominating that one but all the others seemed to waver around the $30 mark and one of my tables was the big loser for the day. Iv got some hands so let me post.
There are more but I didnt post them during my Session so....
The Last Word
Im moving today and tomorrow, so I most likely be online or on vent for awhile. We have to be out of this apartment by the 15th and we move into our next apartment on the 1st of June so... that Sucks. Im mostlikely going to be chilling at my parents house and feeding off their net so I will be on but probably really limited. A few tourneys is really all i expect to do untill i move into the new place i probably wont be in the mood to session untill then. That and my girlfriends jaw surgery is this week which will suck for both of us. Looks like Ill be limited to my job at circuit city for outside fun for awhile. Either way... Peace!
Made an iffy pre-flop call with AJo that I got scolded for. Villain was pretty aggro though, so I'm not super upset about it. Plus he was an LP'er, so I'm happy to donate
Haven't been playing much this month so far, but I'm ready to put in ~500 hands/day for the remainder of the month. We'll see how it goes.
I had been playing bad for about a week at nl10 (which is embrassing) before i took at break from poker, lost like 16bi. Out of two weeks, i took 2 days to figure out what is wrong with my game. I am a super aggro monkey and misses alot of value bets when i actually have the goods.
I heard PS was having their 10b promotion so i race back to play poker. Played over 5k hand today and made an amazing 14BI. Wish everyday was like this.
BR 640 dollars.
NL25 when i get 1k. hopefully by end of month or sooner.
Okay, so I quit my job at the factory because.. lol whatever, I'm not a factory worker. I started working at a pizza shop, delivering again for 35-40 hours a week so I don't have to cash out and so I can just play whenever I have extra time and whenever I feel like playing. It's definitely showing in my results.
what an asshole, mspaint piece, CONTESTby Daut, May 13
Being at home always reminds me that I'm sort of an asshole. I went over to my friends house today and three of us sat around with his dad who is the most hilarous person of all time and just told stories. I know im a pretty nice guy but I always say the most assholish things of all time. Two stories that I forgot about but came up tonight:
The first:
So I'm in the airport in vegas and you have to take a little train from where you get off the plane to the baggage claim area. So I walk on the little tram and its totally packed, so I squeeze into a little area and hold on to the bar in the center so I dont fall over like a jackass.
Right before the door closes this smoking hot girl walks on the tram and squeezes into a little area, but she doesnt have anything to hold on to. Before saying something I just have to check her out because I cant take my eyes off her body. she obviously sees me because im probably gawking, and i realize it would be gentlemanly to help her out, so i speak up and say "So you want some pole?"
she was about 2 seconds away from punching me in the face but i think she realized what I meant. However, she probably thought i was creepy and declined my invitation to hang out on the bar. smooth operator huh?
second story:
My last day at school, 6 of us go out to a waffle shop to get some breakfast. On my right is georger, who is a really big dude, like 6'1 330, and he obviously orders a ton of food. On my left is steve, who is a pretty funny guy, but is basically a meathead, and when the food arrives, he makes some comment about how much georger ordered, I wish I remembered what it exactly cause it was pretty funny.
Georger replies "yeah yeah, blow me". The waitress was standing next to him and probably felt a little uncomfortable, but was cool enough to make a funny retort saying "oh not here, maybe later". she didnt really mean it, but it was a nice little funny moment. So asshole me goes "OH SWEET GEORGERS GETTING A BJ LATER". I dont think she really found that funny but whatever it was ok she let it slide.
so we finish eating, and on the other side of the table, my buddy rhett, who is extremely hungover, has his head down on the table and is just looking like total shit. so I go "hey i know what will make you feel better, you want me to get the waitress to blow you instead of georger?"
Immediately after I say that I see a look of horror come across my 3 friends on the other side of the table. the waitress was standing over my right shoulder ready to ask us if we wanted anything else or wanted the check. she obviously heard me and was obviously not pleased about it. oops.
oh well, i heard some good stories on their part too, but mine were doozies.
and not to leave you guys sitting there with a woody, ill finish you off. i have a picture i drew today. there was a contest in the pocketfives off topic forum to photoshop a picture of actionjeff on a swing hanging out with gobboboy.
well, as we all know I am the mike matusow of computer drawing, I'm not really the most talented guy around but I definitely have the most heart. Photoshop is for the professionals who know what theyre doing, mspaint is for the guys who are all heart.
i would have liked to do some more work on it, but i didnt really play magic and am really bad at this lol.
and now a contest. take a picture you find of me online and put it in a magic card. post the picture and your name on stars in a comment on this post, and the best one gets 50 bucks. ill be crossposting this on LP/cardrunners, so ill choose the best one within the next few days.
HOW CAN I FUCKING LEARN TO CARE ABOUT MONEYby PetrBlaha, May 13
Ok so this is what is hapenning. I'm playing (i hope) smart poker, trying to learn, trying to be openminded, trying to play with BR managment, steadily moving up
and then
BANG !!!!!!!!!!!!
I sit at one table trying to "outsmart" people of just whatever and start playing as idiot. Now I've played for about half an hour and lost more than 3 fucking buins. I really dont know how to start to care about my moneyz I dream about moving up as soon as possible and then I am so irresponsible as you can read above. Shame on me. I hope that with this rant on me I will work it out. It's fucking nonsense. I'm building this for day and in half hour I throw it out of window. Damn! It's so fucking ridiculous. I hate this so much Help me out !!!
Today i played my first SNGS with my new small 60$ extra SNG bankroll on Everest.
Bad thing -> the software is really bad ... ( or just doesnt like my PC ...) so slow T_T + ugly + annoying dealer chat
Good thing -> the players are even worse than their software
played 12 SNG today + 23,88 $
new SNG BR 83,88 $
I cant remember the last time cashgame on NL10 when i got sucked out a lot but still managed to be up + 24 $ in only 2 h.
I was chipleader in 10 of the 12 SNGS after ~ 25 minutes
and only some real suckouts like AQ < KQ , AQ < A9 , QQ < A2
preventet me from getting ITM all 12 SNGS...
I know 12 SNGs is a way to small sample size to claim long term profit.
Decided to make a video, of course it came out ungodlyishly huge since the quality is basically completely awesome ;D
900 mb or so, need to figure out how to make it smaller.. (haven't used Vdub in years, and the video seems to be too big - not file size but .. area wise).
Or maybe make a new one where I have a set recording area instead, would probably be good!~ The video is mostly for myself to find out what I'm doing badly/force myself to think about hands.
But also in case anyone felt like watching it and providing some critcism.
Ok, some hands from yesterday, possibly something older too, I forget;
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/191356 - should bet/fold river, especially since the guy had previously made a comment about how I raised QJ utg (which he obviously thought was bad).
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/191388 - the guy had bet a high % of the time I checked to him so far, but I've been told the board is too drawy to ever check here
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/191391 - could have folded since the guy was 50/5/.05 but I have serious trouble folding AA to anyone with a VPIP of 50 -_- Maybe he was trapping with KK, what the hell do I know.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/191392 - this hand was 20 seconds later, I thought he had a pair or a draw this time.. And yeah, booooooooooooooooooooooooh.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/191405 - 67d OESFD vs AKd ace high flushdraw. First limper was limping almost every hand and I'd have raised 67d usually but I'd been raising alot so I limped.
Thought for a long time about the jacks, but after reviewing the above hand, and taking into consideration how little respect I was likely getting (first two hands at the table I had TT and QQ, then I push my OESFD, I felt I was probably not getting a ton of respect), I decided I can't fold this.
Got a ton of nice input on all these hands by naz/midian/day so that was great, thanks =]
Getting a bit bored with UB's lack of tables/bad multitabling capabilities so I'll probably be getting back to star as soon as my rakeback arrives.
