It looks fucking horrible and even the EV line is in the negative but I feel like it doesn't even cover how bad I felt like I ran today. Even if the EV line covered it all I am running 10 buyins below EV. But that's not the case. I just could not catch a break and seemed to be running into monsters I thought they couldn't really have due to preflop/flop actions when I had second or third nut type hands. Or I would 3bet pre, get called OOP, half pot flop, half pot turn setting up for a river shove, and then have the fish river two pair for his A7 or some bs. Add this to consistently losing flips and 70/30's and it just sucked today.
It's even worse because I kept taking little breaks to relax and keep my cool and I was telling myself to just play solid and that downswings happen. I was pretty non tilted, at least in the monkey tilt department. Even now I feel pretty calm about it but fuckkkkkkk.. the graph just looks awful and I'm wondering if a winning player can even run this bad at NL5. :/.
Anyone have any advice? Kill myself? Hahaha. Does this just happen sometimes? 10,000 hands isn't impossible for a swing like this, but I know the bigger your winrate the less likely this stuff happens... :/. Ok well I'm going to bed.
Played live last night, and almost lost my shit after some call-station brags about how he would have folded TP HU if "someone so much as breathed on the pot", a mere 3 hands after calling off about 50BB's with bottom fucking pair. Seriously? You call flop and turn with A3s on a QJ34 board, and then claim you would have folded JQ to a river bet on a J7289 board. Go fuck yourself old man. Fish just love to show how disciplined they are laying down monsters or whatever the fuck. "Look im not as terrible as even I think I am, I'm going to muck KK preflop because someone 4bet me, I have sick reads".
An otherwise crap session running cold all night. Maybe try again later this week.
My fiance and I wen't to a wedding yesturday, and they did a nice little dance right after the bride and groom walked down. My fiance was the one on the very left. My shitty camera work, oh well i tried my best with all the people in my way. Enjoy.
I quickly need 100$ on Paypal, i give 120$ on moneybookers.
I send first to a "trusted" LP member (dont have 10 posts).
I already made a lot of small transfers on LP, i'm not a scammer, just an honest person.
im gonna play crazy music and probablu complain that it doesnt play loud enough. im gonna tell you that i went out in the gayest part of england and yet did not suck any cock.
I've got 1 left. Anyone want it? PM me your email.
Basically its sort of like a streaming version of itunes and last.fm. The invite i can give u will let u use the free version but theres adverts. Premium with no ads is £5/month o $7.5/month and theres a version with even better sound quality and no ads thats £10 or $15/month..
Roll boosted to $2500 yesterday, so I decided it's time to play some NL50 with a 6BI move down rule. Didn't went too good, heh. Mostly a mixture of coolers and bad play:
Well, time to go down once again. This time I'm going to grind those stakes until I reach $3000. The reason for this conservatism is that I find NL25 really soft here and, even though I don't desperately need money now, I'll need some in the not-so-distant future, so I can't really afford moving up and down numerously with a constant bankroll. I don't think I'll have any problems with motivating myself to play overrolled, because I've already made $600 here and didn't really feel the urge to move up. I just wanted to take a shot and see what happens.
Although not everything went as planned, I'm still confident in myself. Grinding a ton at the moment (as you can see from the graphs; the time span is just seven days) and willing to continue putting a ton of hands at least until the end of the summer break (that is until 4th October), so I'm expecting to hit that $3k pretty damn soon, rofl.
I can't really say why, but the struggle to finally win some money during the past few months made me more motivated than ever. I'm 100% positive that I will reach those fucking midstakes sooner or later, no matter what. Good luck me!
Here are the statistics. As you can see I've played on all different currencies on iPoker, skill-wise they feel about the same, but too short sample to tell. Perhaps the pounds-table was a bit harder, but probably marginally.
What can be said about NL50 then? The majority of the players are actually regulars, but they seem to be pretty bad most of them. Biggest mistake I see by them is not valuebetting enough, and polarizing there range heavily. Makes it a lot easier to call down with 3rd pair if you know they only valuebet with a thin range of hands.
I have some small specific tips to help beat the level, and especially in the face of all the regulars. There are still tons of fish who donate their money to you though, so don't worry. But sometimes the tables were all filled up with 20/18 guys 3-betting like 10+%. A common thing they all have is that they pretty much 3-bet all the time in the SB and BB against a BTN/CO-raise. So, for all using HUD, it's pretty a MUST to check specifically from which position people 3-bet.
My general idea in the 3-bet department is to mix it up a bit more positionally; it's a great idea to once in a while throw in a 3-bet from the HJ against a loose UTG open with a hand like KJo. Also, to 3-bet the regulars who just won a big pot probably had a success rate at 95 %.
Against habitual squeesers in the BB, you should once in a while flat a raise with a premium hand in the SB to trap them. It will not work everytime of course, but it's a good idea to do and not just habitually 3-bet like a robot.
Time to try NL100 now. BR at 2000 euros which seems sufficient enough to try (will move down if I drop 5 buyins). Next goal is NL200, which I feel I need at least 30 buyins for. Feels good to start playing again, and hopefully the good run continues.
1/4th of my roll in 3 days...taking tomorrow off...hopefully I make this back in the next month...moving down to 100nl if i lose 9 more bi...bright side, i didn't tilt
edit: to bored and still focused...may not take tomorrow off
