It's been a long time since i wanted to post my stats to receive some feedback from experienced players... obv i have a lot of leaks to work on so u have big work to do xD
I started playing 12 tables on april, that's something i have always wanted to master and now that i'm overrolled nl10 (+ than 60bis) decided to give it a shot before starting nl20 (everything is in euros btw), so i decided to separate February and march from april Feb-Mar shows my stats while 5 tablin´ and april are my newly acquired nit stats =D xD
i´ve seen that for micros this game is very profitable so i think i'll continue with this at least until april 16 (when i get last months rb) and then start nl20 with about 8 tables
And this is my month so far... lots of badbeats+suckouts, i could easily be another buyin up but i just couldnt fold my QQ vs a nit 4 bet =(=(=( my bad!!! =/
So i recently got invited to the sc2 beta but my moment of happiness was quickly overcome by shame at my rinky-dink computer that cant run sc2. My comp also frequently shuts off randomly which is very tilting when i'm playing sngs. So i have decided to buy a new computer but I know nothing about them so im hoping someone can help me. I would like to be able to run sc2 smoothly but I don't need to have it on the highest possible settings or anything. I would also like to be able to run Stars, HEM, Table ninja, and firefox with a couple tabs all at the same time. I would prefer to get a laptop but I can live with a desktop and I already have a monitor to hook it up to. I would like to spend around $750 but I can go up to 1k. Anyone out there who can help me out with this?
Just another statistical update off my SNG 18man tryouts

Quite happy so far.
yeha its small money and all but its a very nice feeling to really win money after creating a theoretical gameplan that should win you money
( As said i dl SNG wizard and put in 4h of work in which i gave myself pushing and calling ranges for all kind of situations that can appear in these 18man turbos)
So since my last roflpost, a couple of things have happened.
I e-mailed my family that night and revealed to them that I haven't been doing well at all, and that I would like a ticket home. Specifically, I msg'd my grandma, who is a total sweet heart. A couple of hours later I got an e-mail back. I can get home anytime I want and I have 3 choices of where to stay for however long I'd like. They still support me 100% and encouraged me to do what is best, whether its go home in 3 weeks and pull myself together, or stay here longer if I can. Basically, it reminded me that the only one calling me a failure and a fool is myself. And it took a lot of stress off of my mind.
Yay.
So, the next day I was feeling a lot better (And still am), so I asked grandma to hold off on the plane ticket for a week or so.. which brings me around to poker.
I've spent the last couple of days taking a very relaxed approach to how many hands I need to be putting in, since that is clearly not where the problem is, and I've instead been 3 tabling for 30-45minute sessions. Focusing on building myself back up and getting confidence in my hand reading again. I've also significantly tuned up the aggression, simply acting on what my idea of their hand range is instead of... not. lol.
Its only been 1.2k hands, just trying to play 2-4 hours a day of these little sessions.
I feel a lot better, though I still am getting thrown off my proper head too easily. Hopefully that will improve over the next week, if it doesn't I will probably go ahead and get a ticket home for sometime in May.
/end real blog type of blog while not ragingly tilted for once
first time i've ever been to mohegan, despite going to foxwoods like 30 trillion times. this place is the illest. i wish i never went to foxwoods and its a damn shame that fw is so much more popular for the poker crowd.
my room has the nicest view of the river thames (the USA one obv) and the surrounding community. its nice to see real scenery when you live in vegas la la land scenery. the pics probably dont do justice but here are a few
Getting married in a few hours now! Kinda nervous but super excited for an awesome day. Just chilling here before we head to the venue. Kinda shitting myself about my Speech, but I am sure it will be all good and just work out!
Will def have to post some pics of the day. Then I am off to Dominican Republic for a couple weeks on Friday. Looking forward to it!
Regarding Poker, nothing to special. 49th in Turbo Takedown last week, but other than that, i ran a whole weekend of MTTs with complete failure. Started grinding 45man sngs aswell for some profit. Early days, but looking good. Perhaps when I come back from my Honeymoon, I will be fresh and ready to run good!
Round 1 def goes to the gilf - she's a bartender at a local bar I go to. I got her number about 4 months or so ago, been trying to work my way in once in a while but to no avail, this cunt seems closed up for shop anyone near my age (I told her I was 24)
She's 46 and a fucking gilf, plays in a band + fucking taunts the fuck about not being able to get with her calling me cute etc (I guarantee she loves that fucking shit... Which make me even more pissed, because I know I fell right into her fucking hand yet I can't NOT try to fuck her because she's totally fuckable
Didn't really care until fucking now - haven't been laid in about 2 weeks and this fuck would totally set me up on the right track for summer.
well i'm sure you guys are tired of my whine posts and bad beats, so i'm just gonna hang the gloves. i spent too much time and effort into poker and never got anything out of it except for being stressed out all the time. the emotional swings are too much for me.
i already cashed out the last of my roll. goodbye lp, it was a pleasure.
i'll still lurk around and probably post in the rofl thread but that's about it.
Overall thouse tourneys are ridiculously soft.
90% of the players do exactly the wrong stuff.
The try to gamble it up with ridiculous pf all ins like QTs J8s for stacks with low blinds in order to get like a 8K chip stack and then semi sitout unless they get JJ-AA AQ+
...
still its hard to turn decent profit on pokerstars when u lose so often ever and ever again getting it in being ahead
GL ALl
especially to Night2o1
My situation isnt too different from yours ...
thats why i try to make a switch to SNGs.
I was either go broke playing NL cashgame running like dipshit forever or to try something new
Due to unforeseen financial obligations, I have been forced to seek a stake. My computer broke down, my car likewise. Both in the last week. I have been playing ST 6M SNG's on FTP for a while, and have been doing pretty well. I am very confident I can beat these at a good clip.
I'd like to be staked for a month or two and am open to offers regarding percentages and such. Please PM me if you're interested. Thank you.
NAPT Mohegan Sun main event starts tomorrow. I won a satty and i'm startin the drive over there from Philadelphia in a couple hours. Any LPers gonna be there? If we've got some people around maybe we can all meet up.
I cant help but laugh at this shit......its like or he needs a 3 outter sure why let him hit runner runner or his 3 outs in the deck......basically just a lil rant but i honestly cant help but laugh at this. ppl play so bad and im running so horrible
but it'll come around
gl everyone
std upswing 20-25BI over 6k~ hands. Timing tells are awesome if you believe in them. Will post graphs when i bother to upgrade my pt3 from microstakes edition.
Atlantic City in May anyone?by acdawg712, April 06
If anyone is from the Mid-Atlantic area and wants to go to Borgata from May 4th-6th, let me know. 2+2 is having a 'party' with reduced hotel rates, free breakfast and lunch buffets, prize drawings, and a tournament. Unfortunately, Mason Malmuth is a hardass so everything is techinically public.
I've been playing a little poker on Bodog recently, PLO 25 and 50 as well as 10 dollar sngs. It's been ok but I've cashed out to finish up the school year. I'll be graduating in May from the University of Michigan, culminating in a speech from President Obama. From there, I'll be grinding in AC for a couple week before heading to Taiwan(anyone there?) from May 13th to 31st. Then I plan on going to Las Vegas sometime in the month and a half before full-time work begins in Central Jersey. I plan on grinding the tournaments and 1/2 and 2/5 on weekends as I settle into full time work, unless I quickly meet new people. Anyway, I have class in 4.5 hours so GL all in poker and life.
