Made 14 buyins or so in the last 3-4 sessions at NL100. I've noticed I make WAY too many thin calls with one pair type hands (mostly overpairs) on semi-coordinated boards and I get value towned with 2p type hands or sometimes a weird straight.
I think one of the biggest factors in becoming an exceptional poker player is discipline ergo making disciplined folds (who the fuck likes folding AA? EVER?) but sometimes you got to do it.
Going to play some donkaments tonight as I feel the urge to as of late and I'll be back on the grind again. Slowly, but surely.
[15:01] Endo: see i thought it was for value against some ppl who open up a wide range of hands and have a high %3bet call
[15:02] Endo: and it was for pikcing up a lot of preflop money against nits who fold to a lot of 3bet%
[15:02] edzwoo: nah
[15:02] edzwoo: if someone raises and i dont like him
[15:03] edzwoo: he's gonna get a 3bet
[15:03] Endo: ATC? lol
[15:04] edzwoo: preferably really bad hands so i feel better about myself when he folds
[15:04] edzwoo: rofl
so apparently when you don't like someone you 3bet them.
I wanted to see if I could beat husng blazed. Let's just say, it was a lesson learned. I'm posting this to give you guys a heads up... dont play high...
I am playing WAY tighter than I ever have and my redline is losing at exactly the same rate. I am rarely 2brl/folding and such, which I was doing too much of before, I'm opening far stronger hands on average, etcetc. Man what is going on. At least I am only down 1 buyin over these last 14k hands, but I am like 5bi above EV.
Well I'm going to keep chugging at it but damn it man.. why can't I change this
17/15/3 over this sample LOL. Sickest nitorama. Maybe I will 3bet from the button more often.. Wonder what sort of hands I should start doing that with since my image according to my stats should be pretty damn tight. If I start 3betting TT/JJ as a normal thing (vs non sick nits ofc) from the button, I feel like I am overrepping my hand vs my stats and will get myself into trouble?
pokerstars notefile/comp helpby Gsr_01_integ, May 19
Well ive got the disk to reformat my comp now. i have a couple questions if anyone out there is good at this stuff

2. i have the disk to reinstall windows but i have all the drivers copied onto an external hard drive and when it will ask for the drivers disk how do i access the drivers files from my external hard drive?
other than that i hope to have my comp working today and be back to the grind so please help me out here LP
Got the new Faithless album, and it is really good. I must say, it has been a while since an album has came along and just picked me off my feet. One track on the album just blows me away every time, called "Flyin Hi". It is possibly the ultimate tune to listen to if you ever have been stoned in your life lol.
Here they are talking about each track of the album;
Maxi Jazz really is a legend lol. Some pretty deep stuff there. I could probably listen to his voice and thoughts all day.
Bump, read last post. Will upload funds to either Stars or FTP if that is better for anyone here willing to transfer me the money.
Currently 662$ (Canadian$) in my Moneybookers, looking for the same amount (or 650$ will do, little profit for you) on paypal, can either send you through MB or deposit on either stars/ftp and need the money on paypal.
I noticed recently that poker affects my mood, when bad beats/suck outs/coolers suddenly happen over and over for no reasons, i get semi-tilted and overall in a bad mood for the whole day. It changes my attitude towards people and i just can't let that happen. It was a hobby for me and i do enjoy playing, but it doesnt worth it, even for the couple of k$ i make a year from this hobby.
So i'm out ! I'd rather do something else that earns me 0 bucks than get in an emotional rollercoaster for scratches... So i will either spend the last 3k left on my account on donkaments for the lulz OR withdraw and go on a nice trip with my friends. Option 2 seems the most ev+, probably will go for that. Anyways, good luck to everybody, won't visit this site anymore except for the ROFL thread. Tchussssss
So I've been using dual monitors for a couple weeks now. Other than multitabling, I don't find TOO many purposes for my second monitor. The extra space is nice, and it's useful for FL studio and other programs that require extra space, but when I'm just using one monitor for browsing and whatnot I want my other monitor to serve some aesthetic purpose. For those who use multimonitors, any cool things to use your additional screens for?
Probably a tougher read than most. I figure its a good book to discuss with others.
Anyone want to form a study group? Or if your strong at math (and also good at poker) and wouldn't mind me annoying you via msn or aim, I'd really appreciate someone to discuss parts of the book with.
i literally have a heart attack and shout and spazz out
im soooo fucking scared of spiders . i was watching an episode of Legend of the Seeker a few weeks ago, and the bad guys used a killer spider to infiltrate his house....i had to shut my eyes for like 5 minutes until it had gone away
honestly the reason i keep clicking these links is because i dont WANT to be scared shitless of spiders and i WANT to look at them coz theyre awesome huge creatures and curious etc, but i just totally FREAK the fuck out when i see the image
