played pretty consistently this month, and had a 10 session winning streak going but that finally broke. i could feel my play becoming a bit more robotic and my play essentially went to garbage (pretty much focusing on my own hands, etc).

had tests and papers, etc lots of school life. so i took a decent 4 day break from poker to pretty much massively cram ~ 11 hours a day of studying. took 2 days off from everything and that pretty much brings us to today.

didn't want to play 6 max so i watched some videos (please look at main poker forum for 5 day free pass to DC). tbh i felt a bit scared to play. anyway ended up playing some heads up....and won like 3 buy in 1 tableing for like 20 minutes. first time playing heads up and was really confused. i tried looking for a 25 dollar table, but i guess ftp doesn't offer it. i mean i've always heard things about hu being super soft, but i guess i never really believed it. because it doesn't make sense. if your willing to play hu than you should in general be good at it no? well ill just go ahead and let you know this seems mightily false so far.

anyway back to some DC, only watched nolan's videos and really have to recommend. he's such a character saying things that just really reminded me of elementary schools when we learned about tall tales (he speaks like davy crockett-huck fin mix with a slight boston accent). plus he seems like a super manner guy (which was pretty humbling).

i guess i feel pretty inspired to play some full ring (seems fun with narrower hand ranges and maybe some more focus on card removal, i dunno though). in general though i feel pretty confident about fr mainly because i feel that 6 max puts u in a lot harder spot because ppl have just wider ranges. but we'll see. maybe i learn patience/discipline after playing lots of fr?

just wondering if there were any specific adjustments that weren't super obvious (like besides position and a more standard/stricter opening hand range from ep) or some other general tips/help

Ok so for the first time in 6 months (since i used to work there), i was able to enter my local casino last night. They were spreading a game called "half pot limit omaha". Not a mixed game, but an omaha game instead at half pot limit, not pot limit. so i'm assuming you're always getting 3:1 on your call.

i'm guessing that some preflop strategy changes will need to be made. the play preflop involves a lot of limpers, and half pot means you cant isolate them.

also, because of the half pot regulation, i think flop strategy should involve a LOT of check raising, and folding the nuts on the flop more frequently than you would in PLO (e.g. if your have like A267 on a 345 flop no redraw, you might have to give it up to substantial action which may mean sets/flush draws/straight+ flush draws).

anyway, what are your thoughts on strategy changes or tips on this game?


thanks people
may your cards always be sooooted (or double sooooted here)

1 day

8 tables Nl50 6max
hands 2163
profits + 75 $


positive things

1) I finally have the willpower and concentration to play more hands.
I have played 26K hands in just 15 days of September (started the month in the middle) which is the second most amount of hands i ever played in a month ( lol)
Normally i got tired of poker after like 800 hands ....

but nowadays i just feel like getting started after the first 500 hands ... i play another 1000 hands when warmed up and then another 500 to cool down

2.) While playing 26K hands in those 15 days i figured out a lot of things i did wrong.
i made a list of this the cost me money every session and then figured out how to avoid those situations

negative things:

I still do some of the mistakes even though i know i should fold ....
did cost me around ~45 bucks in todays session ... and those small mistakes will add to big results at the end of the month


Here is some example

MP reg bets out 1,50 i am in the blinds having AKs and make it 6,50
he calls

flop comes AK7 rainbow
i bet 8,50 he shoves ....

okay lets take a look at the situation ... whe hit Two pair in a 3 bet pf pot.
Good thing

Villian is a semi decent 17/16/3 reg and shoves this flop. over our bet.
fistpump call ?

well realisticly we are up against
AK 25%
KK , AA, 77 65%
10 % a bluff kowing i do 3 TT,JJ,QQ and will c bet them into this flop sometimes + most NL50regs play halway decent but suddenly for no reason decide to make some crazy unnecessary moves every now and then once in 1000 hands ...

considering he is a regular who grinds 6-8 tables and mostly plays a solid tag style
he never has AQ here ...
its 25% split pot and 65% were totally fucked and 10% we catch him doing stupid shit.

well i called and ofc he showed 77 for the set.

this is some of the spots were i just throw aways money T_T

gl all

Pretty lame month overall. Up about 1k for the month in PLO50 but I cleared probably 6 or 7 hundred in bonuses so in actuality I was hardly above breakeven. I've also been running extremely bad over the last couple weeks but I've been breakeven over the last couple weeks which shows how easy it is to beat this level. Got rivered by quads 2 sessions in a row with set over set. Stacking off with set over set happens so rarely that getting rivered by quads 2 sessions in a row is just =[

I also hit platinum star for the first time ever :D

...but not pokerwise unfortunately. Have not played since last saturday when the variance really raped me hard. However proud of my quick 2bi stoploss. Have found it to be a lot more exahausting to play live than online....Have been very tired last weeks due to the combination of light cold, work and poker on evenings. So this week will be totally poker-free, which can be nice also to recover self-esteem from last session and not go into a downswing. Workwise I have been at a conferance for three days, damn boring to listen to people for 8hrs straight almost...and this monday I had my first signing/closing of a minor M&A-deal.Great milestone.

However, the headline refers not to poker but girls again, which you readers know is at least an equal interesting game/hobby for me. Here i'm still on such a sick heater...Saturday I will go on a "date" with a girl that I have avoided to date when I was in the rollercoaster and saved her intentionally for a better time..the sick thing is that it seem to have worked =) Picked up tells she was interested and gave back some hints but did'nt go further...now I have finished all other girls and yesterday it was time for action...and yup I've made it...made her take the first step so we'll be hanging out on saturday night....Although I from the beginning thought she was good-looking, it came as a bonus she has reaaaally nice photos of her since she's modelling =)

Over and out

Didn't really play much this month. I played NL5 and NL 10 later on in the month. I am still trying to figure NL 10 out, I had a pretty swingy month but I think I learned a decent amount.

NL 5

+ Show Spoiler +

NL 10

+ Show Spoiler +

Any input is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks and goodluck.

Started off decent, then just seemed like nothing I could do to stop the downswing, even coaching couldn't stop it we spent most the time sitting there every 30seconds it seemed with "LOL sucked out again" or "holy shit it held! oh shit nvm he hit on river"


Probably won't be able to put in more than 20k hands next month as well things are really picking up around the gym and I've been doing 2 a days for the last week already.

I was too lazy during september and only played for like 3 days. I still managed to win 100 dls at NL2 for 25K hands on those days but meeeh. I guess i don't have the stamina for the NLHE grind.

So im gonna shortstack HU PLO 50 for this month or at least till I make mad moneissss. If someone catches me playing above PLO 50 I'll ship u 10 buckaroos. (this is my promise to you, devoted reader and myself)I am still suprised at how FTP tables are so super ultra soft, except for the fkn northern european high variance donks, you just wait till I have a big enough roll to crush you biatchesss. I'll also try to post sexy hands during my endeavor.

PS I'm having my 21 BD party on friday so I'll try to post picssss =P

Wow what a shit month. down 1.2 k in NLHE. Sucks.
As I also mentioned in one of my previous blogs my car has been stolen, so I bought my sisters car for 1.5k. Its 89 toyota corolla as well. Looks decent. Still alive. So hopefully it wont break down on me and will be worth the 1.5k. In order to afford this car I had to cash out 900 bucks. That and combined downswing fucked me up.
Heres NLHE graph:

I have low hopes for no limit. Its reg infested. Im giving a go PLO, seems like theres less competition at the moment, altho the waitlists also go up once europe time hits evening. I dont have any tracking software for PLO, so i cant really say how im playing it. But i think im up. Since i started the month with 3.6, lost 1.2 and cashed 0.9k. I should be around 3.6-1.2-0.9 = 1.5K, but im about 1.9. So sad im not even rolled for NL100, so im going down and playing buyin 50 bucks...

Since this has been an ass of a month, im gonna compensate with some hot butts.

Enjoy.

haven't played since April, been playing dota since then. I d/l'd FTP, HEM, and got ready to grind some 25NL but to my surprise I found 2.9K on my account. It was like finding $5 in your laundry, cept a lot better.

So I played 50NL for a few days to get my groove back, my vpip going from 15/13 on the first day to 23/20 as I got more comfortable and used to poker again.

Today, I took a NL100 shot since my BR was building up quite nicely. It went really really well. I played 10 hours for 5300 hands and I'm fucking tired as fuck. Here's graphs and a few hands:

NL50 first few days and NL100 today, ignore the NL5 was messing around with a friend

I was running 24/21 at nL100 with 8% 3bet. so yeah, just going to keep trying to get better and become a nl100 reg by studying, going over marked hands, watching videos.

edit: blooper hand, I ship A-hi into ...... lulz
