After moving down to 50nl yesterday, I´m running 14bi below EV over 10k hands. Not meant to be a whine post, and I actually feel pretty good regardless of results, cause I feel I´m playing my A game. Not much I can do besides grinding it out. I have been playing a little tighter 19/15/3.5 with 27%wtsd and only 45%wsd.
Well it started bad and ended bad, but was somewhat good.
I endeavoured to chase SNE for the first weeks, but have since burnt out. It was pretty much physically impossible to do while working.
However, it did motivate me to clock a lot of hands.
It was the most hands I've ever played in a month, all sessions were mostly 20+ tables. Subsequently my winrate was scraping the barrel at 1ptbb, however you still seem to make decent money ($700 per day) when you take into the sheer amount of hands and rakeback.
look at the stupid shit I do, lately i've been losing atleast 1 BI every session by doing stuff like this. idk what im thinking at the time, when the hand's over I know how bad i played it, i know all of my mistakes, but i just keep making plays like this over and over my winrate would double if I could just control myself

Was okay, woke up late. Got visited by an old friend randomly, didn't expect him at all. We got some indian food and had a good chat. He's visitng some other guy in SF and will be staying at my place I think.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/793936 - $17.20 - Incidentally, another bad beat. Also, I think I have to call river here. Calling river does, however, cause my all-in ev to drop massively according to HEM. However a good thing to take away from this is, I identified the villian as having the wrap that he had on the flop.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/793940 - $16.85 - Talk about actually having the pot odds to draw for a full house. If only whichever player had nut flush stayed in the pot :/.
Was 4 tabling today. Everytime I had a draw or a set, the exact opposite of what I wanted to happen, happen. Flush when I need straight, straight when I need flush, etc. Also I laid down several hands where the villian was obviously holding a naked flush draw because of the river flush card. Hand histories above should also make it clear how people were hitting their hands against me. Last 100 hands I hit the two JJ sets I posted above and they helped push me back over the breakeven line into profit line.
All in all, I think I persevered okay through the bad parts.
started the day off -133 USD on NL50 becuz of damn HUD (and well me spewing which i wouldn't have done if i didn't get on tilt cuz of the PT3 HUD not working properly) but ne wayz resumed another session at night and won 20 bux after going on downswing after being doomswitched on few KK, AA BUT everything worked out fine becuz someone hit the bad beat jackpot on the stakes that i was playing! which means i gained back everything i lost today plus extra 400 whoooo what a day xD

can anyone see the end of the video? mine just fades to white; i imagine there's just a point where there's so much cum in my face my eyes just fail to see anything past white
3) i want to learn french; is there any helpful site based on the users here?
4) i've started playing lots of guitar; any super helpful sites or tips for me?
5) i'm 21. for so long i've felt just absolutely helpless to change my life. i was just pissed at the world and spent way too much time being a bitch. 0-20 is your first life. 21-40 is your second life. there's so much time to get the life you want and there's time to rectify all the mistakes or regrets in your first life.
6) last thought is just a continuation of thought 5, but give yourself a chance to win. give yourself a chance to succeed. rome wasn't built in a day. anything worth doing takes time, dedication and practice.

lately ive been having problems with pt3 and i am using the trial version >< but ne wayz it was working perfectly fine when i was playing nl25, the tables were updated fast and importing hands went smoothly. that is until i moved up to nl50 and now the hud is slow. the stats dont show up for awhile and when it does, its slow to update and sometimes the stats doesn't show up at all on a table or two (i play 8 tables). so i was wondering does ne one know how to fix the problem? i play on absolute poker and nl50 is bad beat jackpot table so does that have ne thing to do with the problem? and i also did date housekeeping and compressed the files and everything. thx
Going to the Czech Foreign Police is seriously one of the most frustrating things I have ever experienced. I cannot possibly imagine what it was like three years ago when there was only one office handling all the different residency and employment issues for ALL nationalities. At least in Prague they have opened another office that can handle 30% of the city, and gone are the days of waking up at three in the morning to get a ticket with a number on it, and hope that they call you within the first four or five hours once the office opens.
Poker-wise, moved back down to 50NL after a marginal effort at 100. I started teaching some intensive (IELTS, CAE/CPE) exam courses this month, so I wasn't able to play as many hands as I would have liked.
im running like sick hot atm, its disgusting really, sets all over the place
only 53k VPP to go before nova now =) sweet, im tired of 24 tabling
anyways, end of brag
btw
superbowl is coming up, since i dont follow the NFL or anything i dont know to much about any of these teams?
its New orleans saints agains indianapolis colts right?
I played american fotball here in sweden in a shitty noobleague for about 2 years between 06-08, so im pretty interested and its been kind of tradition for me and some close friends to watch the superbowl and drink beer all night (its played night time here in sweden, starts at like 2am or something)
help me pick favourite team to go with? : ) wich of them is a underdog? why should i roote for team x? give me some tips and discussion! :D its always funny to have a favourite going into the match, my friends will pick theirs aswell
Still have about 80 to transfer from UB to Stars. Anyone want ABS/UB money? I send first to reputable, or we can work out increments if you're unknown.
OK Im sort of confused here. I cant decided which site to play on. I have played on FTP for the past year and I have rakeback there, i also get free cardrunners everymonth. BUT, FTP has doomswitched me forever and its mentally deteriorating. I really think it has some effect on my game and I begin to just expect crazy beats. I was contemplating a fresh start on stars. The most I could acheive monthly on stars atm is Goldstar grinding 50NL and maybe even Platinum if I try hard later in the year, but im missing alot on rakeback. I do like PS better tho and tend to run decent there, along with there huge choice of low stakes big guarantee tournies I like to hit up every now and then. SO help me LP!
