Didn't play so much today, i went to play live, only bring 80$ with me, basically just to relax, i got sucked out and left and played a small session back home. Well i'm running pretty hot so far, would be cool if i cud substain this until NL200

For some reason, some hands are missing, there's like 1 buy in missing so i ended up like +650$, pretty neat

Ok, I havn't hit that many hands lately but I've had some great opportunities to make moves. I'll just post a few of them and see what you guys think about them.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/147477 <- standard steal?
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/147478 <- I dunno about this one really.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/147480 <- Also a hard one. "When in doubt, push all in"-ish hand.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/147481 <- Probably stupid. I wanted him of K/Q/J-high.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/147483 <- Probably the most intressting hand I played today.

Wow my blog is a real fucking whinefest but jesus christ i need somewhere to vent my frustration.

This is unreal i managed to lose:

KK vs AA preflop, twice.
KK vs QQ hit set preflop.
flopped 2nd nut flush vs flopped nut flush.
set vs overpair allin flop, he hits set on river.
set vs higher set.

then the most insane beat of my life, this one is the best of the lot i reckon.

my set of 2's vs his top pair, he hits QUADS ON TURN AND RIVER WTF??? he needed to hit BOTH the other queens in the deck to win and he did it?? un fucking believable.

why do bad beats seem to come along all at once? if they were spread out it wudnt be so bad but wtf they all come within like 1 hour of each other.

have to show like that since poker.com has some retarded system for hand historys they put it in some userfriendly bullshit i think i mite leave the site only for this reason its well frustrating.

anyway on the plus side im actually breakeven for the session, shame about the beats id probably be about like +8 buyins otherwise.

Current BR: $680

My mate also has found the solution for bad beats:

David says: it's recommended to wank at least once per poker session tbh

Ok i have made some sessions of NL 25, lets say i say got owned

I have lost like 3-4 buy in. Actually, except when tilting a little, i dont know what i am doing wrong.

I mean, if i knew what i was doing wrong, when i would be owning theses games, u see what i mean

The nl 25 at World poker exchange is waaaay harder than their NL 10 that is for sure.

Now Br = 217 (sniiiiiiiiiiiiifffffffffffffffff

(back to nl 10 :/)

I was talking about my camera from the FPP store. I finally have it. I got my book first though. Now i just wait for the Chips Set... i don't know how many of you have that but i thought it would be cool to have them and play some live poker.
I failed to move up at 50 nl and i know why... 'cause i'm a pussy. You never know how crazy people are until you become one of them. I did that with some bad results yesterday and some good ones today. I'm happy with the way i played and here are the stats for today:

fuck, I am so hungover. I had a pretty shitty night last night, only because I didnt get ass, but thats ok. Tonight im heading out with this dude matt that I met last weekend. He seems pretty baller i guess, and told me theres this sick party tonight in the wood. I asked if there would be high school girls, he said yes, i said ship it, obv.

So today I am gonna play some donkaments. I am pretty much busto on stars so im rockin the 3 rebuy and all those sweet micro stakes mtts. Playing lots of q'ers on full tilt for the ME tomorrw. I think ill just win it or something and ship the 275k. Then ill play 200/400 and be a millionare by the end of monday.

Cash games have been ubergay lately. My roll is 10kish give or take. I took a little shot at 2/4 past few days. The 2/4 game is not hard, by any means. I am just a huge bankroll nit and go on monkey tilt when I lose like 1/4 a bi. The games are very aggressive, but I have adjusted well to the aggression. Anyways, I decided to just pwn 1/2 for maybe 2-4k more or so and then play some 2/4 again.

you bitches can look me up on FTP at "readmyline"
and "sooon2b" on stars (3 o's)

hollllllllllla

Now, theres some hands i have issues with playing, more to the fact i dont really know the best line to play.

AJ is a hand i have problems with a lot.

So, my question here is, how is best to play:

A) AJo, late position/button.

I'm mostly stuck if i get a raise first, mostly i am tempted to reraise to see how strong their hand is, however if they call my reraise im effectively drawing dead?

Is it better to fold AJo late position to a raise, this seems a bit tight to me. If theres no raise i will raise this 100% of time and if i hit my ace assume i am good and go to war with it, unless i get some really fishy play/obvious flush hitting.

B) AJs, late position/button.

This hand is similar but has flush posibilities, how much stronger does this hand become being suited? I'm not sure tbh. How do you play this hand in comparison to AJo, do u reraise this more?

C) AJo, early position.

I really hate this position here, i usually raise/call dependant on table image, i really dislike calling now with AJo though, even if i hit my ace in an unraised pot theres a chance i cud get cained by a freak hand like 48o. Best to just fold this early position? again tho seems a bit tight to me.

D) AJs early position.

I usually raise this hand here but again not sure if this is good play, im mostly looking to hit the flush or my ace, but if i get TPTK with jack i usually assume im good here. If i get reraised im a bit clueless and generally just fold it or call and hope to hit flush draw on flop.

This is for 6max 25NL.

Any advice/opinions appreciated

It's always fun to run well for a change. Yesterday was a very good day, played a short session in the afternoon and won a big pot with AA on an AJJ flop against a donk with A5o. Came back and played a late night session, which was extremely swingy. I hit two big combo draws, KcJc on a Tc8c7x flop, Qc on the turn, and 6s5s on a Tx2s3s flop, 6x on the turn, 8s on the river. Won a couple nice pots with KJ that flopped trips vs. trips with lower kicker, and a flopped flush with KsQs. Probably got a little spewy with my c-bets and raises during the rush, or I could have made quite a bit more. Also made a nice laydown on the river with J6 from the BB vs. J8, J86 flop, lost a bit, but managed to preserve most of my stack. Overall, a very solid day. My BR is now plenty to move up and give NL $100 another shot, but I'll probably play at least one more day at NL $50, which will complete the first week of my challenge. At the beginning, I mapped out my quest and planned to spend the first 10 days at NL $50, but I've played a bit more hands than expected (I wanted to play 1k a day).

Day 6 totals:

+$204.05 in 1,338 hands of NL $50.

Current BR:

$3,198

Overall totals:

+$527.20 in 9,899 hands of NL $50.
+$156.95 in RB / bonuses.

Been playing very well imo. Ive played these micro stakes enough(damn withdrawals) to get reads on basically all the donk lines and dumb shit. Have yet to have AA hold up vs KK all in pf (0/3) but w/e im still up quite a bit and need to play a bit more. Ive only put in maybe 4k hands or so since my last blog. Id like to see myself up in stakes not too long from now although I did start a bit under rolled and I want 20 BI's before moving up.

I've been mega busy with school because of random assignments and trying to keep up in Swedish(fun language) + physics. It has kind of settled down a bit though and it is definitely 8000x cleaner now that Sven has moved out.

Kisses, love and regards,

Viktor Hansen

Was playing another game of poker with my mates last night, luck wasnt on my side at all, wasnt hitting anything at all.

One of my mates though, got quads 5 TIMES. This is in a tournament style game of 5 players that lasted only about 4 hours... insane!

Anyway back to real poker, had a good session ish this morning, up 2 buyins.

BR: $725
