[spoiler] [img]http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/1876/graphw.jpg[/img] [/spoiler] Poker is swingy! Especially when I don't play that many hands per month. Was hoping to reach $1k by the end of this month/start of next month but instead got a bit demolished. I don't think that I am playing too badly for the most part, but maybe 1/3 of my big los...

Weeeell I cleared the Iron man bonus (got $75 or something) and made $40 in a freeroll thing for rakeback, so I felt comfortable to take a 25nl shot! ...Didn't go so well. This is the 25nl only graph for the last week of me doing mostly 25nl without the bit of 10nl here and there when there were no decent 25nl games, with required allin ev for extra whine, now in oran...

It's funny how much mindset can change when going down instead though, just trying to not let it affect me and do my best to sort this shi...

If any of you have already read Carthac's latest blog post this is going to look somewhat similar, but I will also be writing a review shortly of "[url=http://dailyvariance.com/poker-books/dynamic-full-ring-poker/]Dynamic Fullring Poker[/url]". I think Carthac wrote a good summary of the expectations of the book, and I will be posting a review here too ...

Currently 4tabling and table selecting extremely hard, things have gone damn well tbh. I moved up to nl10 at the start of November and got hit around a bit after initially running really well, which affected my confidence a bit, so moved back to nl5 even though I was super rolled for it to make myself f...

However something went horribly wrong as I proceeded to lose 6BI pretty quick and then break even after that. Small sample, but 6BI down is pretty bad, I'm sure I can improve what I'm doing 10000x to minimise these losses. Still it could be worse. [spoiler] [i...

I am just wondering if these stats are reasonable to draw conclusions from because I know that some can be extremely misleading by not understanding the filters properly. So I wanted to kn...

Think it might be affecting me a little tbh.

I seem to be getting raked at 7.5 BB/100 (like 75c/100! That's a big deal to me :D), which is pretty hideous. With rakeback, that turns into 6.2 BB/100 but it's still pretty immense. So I'm kinda stuck at breakeven atm, with any edge that I have transferr...

Took a few shots at .02/.05 here and there after about $85 which has mostly gone well so far, but I've only really been playing on tables that I think have totally terrible people. I am still swapping back and forth between 0.02/0.05 and 0.01/0.02 depending on how the tables are, so I'm not ...

Well basically I've posted a few times here but I mainly just lurk because I don't have much to contribute to most discussions really but that's fine. So I started totally from scratch playing 1/2c NL with a limited bankroll in the hope to learn the basics of ABC poker gameplay on the cheap which has worked for the most part. Put on $20 with FTP (the only poker site that... Thu, 11 Feb 2010 10:58:34 +0000 https://www.liquidpoker.net/blog/viewblog.php?id=854993
