wanted to ask someone who plays WoW and is known member here -
I need to purchaes WoTLK and pay subscription for upcoming month, but my credit card is not available atm, so want to ask if there is someone who could purchase me this, i will send money on Stars... i will send first obv
One of my other ex team mates sent me some of our screenshots, posting them here again. Theres a ton more stuff in the blog below this if you like this sorta stuff. This is just a continuation.
So 2009 was a very lucky year for me, but not a very encouraging one.
Cash games I made ~$50k less than last year and played around 80k less hands, but ran like God.
However I probably shipped $30-$40k luckboxing the few tournies I played. Swapping 20% with Wobbly in WSOP ME also helped me break even for the Vegas trip.
I'm a student from Belgium, Flanders to be more specific. Been playing on and off for 2.5 years now.
About a year ago poker started to become very boring and frustrating because I didn't move up as fast as I wanted (went from 100nl to 2knl in 8 months). So I just quit. Then after a while I realised doing nothing is even worse then playing poker. But I needed motivation to start playing again so I thought I'd restart at the lower stakes and I also wanted to learn omaha.
Nowadays poker is fun again, and learning omaha is also very exciting (still a big fish at it tho).
My biggest interests in life are psychology, philosophy and politics.
My main concern is my success rate with Top Pair Weak Kicker or worse. I am assuming its J kicker and Lower.
What does this mean? Im guessing its a major leak? What can I do to fix it...in terms of my preflop actions and how I approach value betting marginal hands.
Hello every1 on lp, my name is jesus cuellar, im a mexican and a reg in the latin version of lp. i dont post comments or hands here but i usually read a blog, article, interviews, etc before starting a poker session. i´ve been telling myself to be more involved in the international version of lp so my game would improve and i decided to start this by making a blog
Actually i play nl5, passed thru nl2 winning about 20bis, then i won a donkament for about 250 usd, then passed thru nl5 winning about 12 bis.. i was still overrolled because of the tourney, decided to move from stars to ipoker and clear some bills, that left my br in about 210 usd and decided to move up to nl10(maybe worst decision i could make because im kinda scared money and like being a br nit, makes me feel secure).
I was coolered and batbeated time after time after time, entered a -8bis downswing with my ev only on -3bis... back to nl5 (actually 4) still on ipoker. i still have 210usd of br since i have a bonus in ipoker so im actually kind of even. im up only 3bis on nl4 (still buying in with 5usd).
When would you consider it is ok for some1 like me to move up to the next limit? ive read a lot of br management strategies and articles, but still would like lp guise who have passed through this to tell me their opinion
tl;dr im dumping graphs and stats gimme ur advice + Show Spoiler +
Ipoker stats (both limits shorthanded 6 max) http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/67770.ipoker stats.jpg
i would like special help on nl10, eventough my ev is not as bad as the actual graph it is still down, and noticed i have a huge postflop leak when looking at my red line
ill start posting interesting hands and comments on lp international
Struggled to win a hand all day today, 'n I have a lil bit of spew going on too. I didn't have any trouble playing a lot atleast.. 5k hands today. I have decided to take a different approach and instead of having a minimum daily hand requirement I will have a daily hand cap and goal for a while. for now Its at 5k.. lets see how much I play tomorrow.
I somehow managed to lose 10 buyins in nonshowdown in 5k hands today. Luckily only down 180bb though. I don't even know or care about wtf is going on atm.. just going to grind and try not to be tilted until I'm feeling better about things I guess. Just have to be careful not to bust or w/e haha
Was really tired at work today, so I pumped up on caffeine at the end.
So I come home all mentally tired but speeded up at the same time, like a monkey on ecstasy.
Should have seen it coming, on the positive side I quit after 300 hands and not after 4k as usual when I hypertilt ;D
It was soo easy and so much fun over the holidays to just grind it up with a huge winrate when poker was all I was doing (While I had a breakeven month I made $2k in 10 days during the Christmas holidays while still running -ev lol).
I envy you poker pros so much for gods sake!

Well, thank god I play with 100 BIs.
FIX: Rewatch Poker Enlightenment. I will not play until I have seen all 8 hours again. Think I have to watch it every month and I already ordered the book, as I am lazy to remember to do the couple things Tommy asked me to do in it.
http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/355c5.horrible start.png
awful start, im gunna grind the 27s like crazy try and claw back some of the deficit! was hoping for a $75k year will be a struggle(i play sit n goes and mtts atm). reposting these videos cos they are awesome.
its 5am and I can't sleep so I decided to hop on and play some 5/10 HU needless to say it didn't go so well and I proceeded to lose every pot though most of it was tilt/spew
school in like 3 hours tho so I can look foward to that lol
2009 Wrap up and Jan 2010 Goalsby Zalfor, January 06
Okay, so 2009 was my first year of serious poker. I made around 10k profit and went up to almost nl100 ish times before tilting hard in November and not playing in December.
I sadly lost 500 in Vegas on New Years =(.
But overall, my first year in poker has gone by really well. I feel like I understand a lot of hand ranges, and I can totally feel like I can crush nl50 and play nl100 well.
I started the staking + coaching deal, and so far the coach has been really helpful =). I def. learned a lot and I'm definitely a lot more fearless than before.
Here is January so far and hopefully I'll put in a good amount of hands in the future as well.
