| | PT3 Import: 2 weeks?... by thumbz555, November 17
Upgraded from 32bit XP to 64bit Win7. PT3 support didn't think the database backup would work with a 32bit to 64bit, so I started the re-importation of 4 million hands, expecting it to take 3-4 days. 17 hours to import and 300+ to update.... still not done.... WTF?

| | 1st real HU success by Night2o1, November 17
Exciting. I was 2 tabling this super fish and he had to close one of the tables because his account was low. SUCCESS. Also I think its pretty funny how all of the HU regs dodge me even tho I'm stuck multiple buyins in nl50 and nl100 HU on PTR (And in reality lol).
nl100 lol
http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/7078b.lolnl100hu250hands.jpg
Anyway, just been playing a lot of 6max and trying to rejuvenate my game. I think I've been playing well, guess we'll see what the results say in 2wk or whatever!

| | lost iphone by SakiSaki, November 17
So yeah, I lost my iphone in vegas this summer and long story short, some cab driver found it, contacted me in sweden and asked me to get a fedex account so they could ship it back. Me being a lazy bastard and fedex being so fucking anoying I couldnt get a fedex account set up and eventually I just gave up. I realized that it would be such a waste to buy a new iphone when I knew where my old one was so today i finally called the cab company again and they said they had given up on me and shipped it to verizon.
Anyone knows how that works? Is there any way of getting the phone back from verizon realtively easily or should i just give up?

| | Legend of the Seeker by k2o4, November 17
So who's been geeking out on this show with me? C'mon, don't be embarrassed. If you clicked the blog title you probably either love the show (like me) or are curious about it, think it might be good.
http://premium1.uploadit.org/IAElitesquad//legend-of-the-seeker-poster1.jpg
Let's examine what this show is all about:
* Cheesy - Check
* Mediocre special effects - Check
* Main character that looks like Link from Zelda - Check
* Female lead who's boobs hang out often - Check
* Ugly old dude that looks like really could be a wizard - Check
* Sword fighting - Check
* Using magic in the story to create unique story lines - Check
* Hot blond girl in red leather who dominates you with a pain inducing dildo - Check
Let's confirm with some photo evidence:
http://premium1.uploadit.org/IAElitesquad//seeker2.jpg
"I'm the Seeker and I'm ready to kick some ass... hey, where's my boomerang? And why isn't Epona here, I need a ride to the castle to defeat Gannond... I mean Lord Raul!"

"I'm the lead chick and this dress is built for cleavage, though this picture isn't so flattering"

"Ahh, there we go, one of my better cleavage shots"

"Ready to be beaten... and love it?"
When they were first premiering the first season of this show they did a live interview with the actors who were filming in New Zealand on like channel 2... it was a horrible interview but I think that helped cause in my pitty for them I got curious about the show. Watched the first few episodes and was reminded of the old Hercules TV show with Kevin Sorbo. It was ok, not great, and I stopped watching.
Then I was watching TV late one night on Sci-Fi and they were doing a Seeker Marathon, but they were doing the episodes in some crazy random order. And the later episodes were pretty good and the story had gone in directions I hadn't predicted. I got curious again. So I went and found it on netflix and watched all of season 1. Totally loved it despite all the ways it's cheesy and stupid.
Season 2 just started and I saw the first episode and damn, wtf, everything went real bad real fast. Definitely gonna keep watching.
Btw my GF thinks the show is extremely stupid but she watches it with me sometimes cause she's way too nice. lol
On that note, who else is with me? Who loves this show?

| | mid month review by Zalfor, November 17
Well, after losing ~2.4k in the first week of the month, i decided to quit poker and focus on getting a job.
I got a great job now in Philly, so I'll prob. be around that area sometime next year if anyone wants to hit me up.
No poker until i get through all my job stuff, but overall I have been life +EV.
only thing i'm looking for now are girls hahaha

WTF
I was playing too much poker last 12 days, my job was very busy and I also got a cold on monday -> When I came back from work I had 0 self control and playing in that condition would be an equivalent to burning money using a high yield flamethrower.
Tilt Report
Since I started 4 tabling 16k hands ago I have burned 8BI including these.
When I say burn I mean it - all those stacks I made a good decisions in my mind but my hands did the exact opposite, only for me to stare at the screen and ask myself wtf just happened.
This equals some 400 PTBB during 16k hands which is a rate of 2.5PTBB/100
Please note that this does NOT include losses caused by my second leak - acting based on small sample or one single read that I do consciously
Plan
I ain't moving up before this doesn't go down to 2BI per 10k hands at maximum for the first leak.
Hell, I will actually move down to NL25 and grind the spewed BIs from yesterday before playing NL50 again.
The second leak will not be much of a problem as the higher the stakes get the more I will play with the same villains. Still its annoying and it is my rolling goal.
Learning
On the positive side, I have re-signed to Deuces Cracked, and to my pleasant surprise there is second season of Real life NL grinder, the bestest poker series for lowstakes player ever.
There is also Road to Robusto series where Tubasteve grinds from NL10 like I did a couple weeks ago.
You can see that his thinking process is nowhere near the level of the high stakes coaches (Where I want to see every video like 5 times I stare with open mouth like 2-3x per hour), but still its a good series in terms of fast moving through stakes.
Thanks for reading

| | utterly owned... by piratematerial, November 17
such a weird match. this guy called EVERY 3 bet i made. EVERY ONE. and every single one i made for value. he almost never 3bet himself maybe like 2% or something. AND HE UTTERLY DESTROYED ME. it was like he was soulreading me or something.. took like $1300 off me. i got c/r on the flop, on the turn on the river. on the river it seemed to be for value everytime. but on the turn and the flop it was quite balanced i guess. i tried to rebluff him, to slowplay, to play fast to make him play for floating, to bluff. i really tried my hardest but he was raising when i had nothing, raising when he had me beat and folding when i had a nutlike hand.
here is his tableratings. appears to be a somewhat skilled amateur player. who can stand his ground on 1/2 HU nl but if a guy like that owns me so fucking hard really i have no place there.

i just don't get it how the fuck he figured this out. he bluffs me on the turn (like i suspect he does quite some, but he also uses this for value with trips for example) so i float him to rebluff in position on the river and he fucking calls with A hi. nobody owns me so hard as to raise me on the turn to get more money in the pot to call me on the river with A hi. WTF...
my computer crashed so im playing without HM but i was single tabling and paying a lot of attention here are the reads i made during the match, in addition i had a lot of stuff in my head ofcourse:
u nl
raised na 3bet te callen een JKx flop naar 60
fold niet erg vaak op 3bets, float redelijk wat in 3bet pots
raised river met nutsy hand
called makkelijk 2 barrels met midpair
called 3bets met 107s etc , float een midpair 10 in 3bet pot, en met 78o
flat pp, zelfs qq
maakt veel c/r of raise bluffs denk ik o flop en turn ?
called flush draw op 223 flop en lead de turn waar hij hit, bet de river hee klein als de 4 flush hit en hij een medium 10hi flush heeft
called down met draws zelf nut draws
raised river met nuts
flat called qq maar 3bet k7o, en checked dan een K hi dry flop down
minraised de flop soms om te kijken waar hij staat?
c/r K hi drawy flop met total air
called zelfs 73s vs een 3bet en float een megadraw ipv raise
op een xxz flop als de flop wordt doorgechecked c/r hij Qz op de turn
op lage rag flops fold hij meestal vs de cbet in een 3et pot
anyway, computer crashed. no HM. forced to play on a laptop, which i dislike, bankroll destroyed last week. dropped another $1300 right now. i'm forced to move down. i was splitting action already between 100nl and 200nl but now im really forced. sucks so much.

http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/dc525.novhu.PNG
http://www.liquidpoker.net/user_pictures/194f9.novhu2.PNG
I like blogging when I'm winning as opposed to losing because I feel like I can talk about whatever I want. When I'm losing, I feel obligated to talk about how some fish was getting hit by the deck and kept rivering me or whatever.
But yeah after the losing session at NL200, I decided to take a break from NL200 for a few reasons:
1. I don't like to reject games, so I often end up playing some presumably good regs (probably not very +EV)
2. I have to wait too long to get a good game
3. I'm really not in the mood for big swings
I am a HUGE fan of taking shots as fast as possible as long as you have the discipline to move down, but I'm not really in a hurry to try and move up, and I also have to start cashing out some money on a semi-regular basis.
But anyway all that aside, my hourly at NL50 was sickeningly strong because of constant stream of fish, so I thought, "hey, maybe I can like 9+ table NL50 HU". I honestly think I'm +EV doing that, but you can see how that went via my two higher volume sessions. I'm not really sure how my VPIP/PFR dropped so much, but my redline was TANKING. I ran like total crap, but gave an honest review of the sessions and am pretty sure the additional tables didn't make up for my drop in winrate.
If you've been following all my sessions, you might have noticed my 3bet% is a bit inconsistent (especially last session). Originally my 3bet range was something like JJ+,AQ+,air. Air wouldn't really be air so much as Ax,Kx, sometimes Qx (or any two depending on gameflow). I originally didn't want to 3bet hands like KQ for value simply because in a theoretical situation, I would throw up if I got 4bet and it has so much postflop value (good for a c/r on missed boards with usually 6outs). That's changing a bit now; KQ is pretty much like AK in a 3bet pot just without the ability to hero someone, and I'm rarely dominated because those hands 4bet me anyway.
I've noticed when people get tilted from 3bets, they start calling your 3bet with anything they raised pre with. So I pretty much went crazy on my value range this session and it worked out nice. Sometimes they just totally give up trying to fight back and assume they'll stack you when they get a monster, which is hilarious. I have never found someone who 4bets me consistently yet.
But yeah, I picked up on some leaks I have, but I think it's the same leak that everyone has. You know, the one where you have a pretty strong hand like top pair but villain bets big on the river when the middle card pairs, but at the same time all draws miss and you decide whatever call? Only to be shown trips and you realize, "man this guy would never bluff me in the first place!" This is mostly for small/medium sized pots (which I think are the most important pots to win in poker since they're a lot more frequent than bigger pots!). The bigger pots I've been pretty disciplined in folding when I need to.
Okay, it's 6am and I haven't slept. I'm not even sure what I'm rambling about, so I'm going to sleep.
GL at the tables.
