Funny Live Hands

twotimesopt — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 02:49:57 +0000

1/3 live, straddle is on. i raise 88 to $20 in EP, 3way to the flop. Flop: 792r. I cbet 50, get called by a guy who's been kind of quiet, but for some reason seems to be in tilt-station mode. Heads up to the turn: Turn: T, completing the rainbow. I check, he insta-bets $100 into $160, and raise him all-in for his last $140 or so. He thinks a bit and calls pretty quickly. River: Q....

700bb pot

twotimesopt — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 01:22:44 +0000

Playing 2/5 live a couple of weeks ago. Effective stacks ~1.7k. Villain is a maniac, capable of calling down very thin and running big bluffs. We have a lot of history, we probably thinks I am an overly aggressive "internet kid". Folded to me on button (very rare), I raise AA to 20, villain flats from the blinds and we see the flop heads-up. Flop is AJ9r, he check-calls my cbet...

Life decisions

twotimesopt — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 01:19:31 +0000

I graduated w/ my bachelor's last May. I was accepted into a Ph.D. program and started last fall. I was also given a teaching fellowship, which is very nice - free tuition, monthly stipend for living expenses, free health insurance, etc. My plan was to get my Ph.D. and eventually become a professor. I enjoy academia, and I've also really enjoyed teaching (as a TA) since I started grad schoo...

Live Hand Analysis

twotimesopt — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 15:19:23 +0000

2/5 Live Table has been pretty quiet recently. The game started about 2 hours ago, I won several big pots right off the bat and have pretty card-dead and inactive for about an hour. I have a pretty tight and very aggressive image. Pre-flop UTG raises to 15. CO calls, BTN calls, I call from the BB w/ 57ss. We go to the flop 4-handed. I think this is pretty standard. I would sometime...

twotimesopt — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 21:48:52 +0000

[img]http://www.uoregon.edu/~kcorcor1/blog/wtf.JPG[/img] today is very indicative of what poker has been like for the past month. basically, without fail, i destroy 2/4 every time i play and just get raped at 3/6. WTF. the games are definitely harder - the regs are better and there are much fewer fish, but STILL...i know that i was running really bad the other week at 3/6 and really hot t...

Epic downswing

twotimesopt — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 00:38:55 +0000

-15 buy-ins the past few days. Sweet. Games don't even seem very hard, a few good regulars but meh. I finally won a big pot earlier...(this is the reason I am -15 BI instead of -17) I would just like to add that NeillyJQ is sweet. Few things on teh.internetz0rz are as entertaining as he. Cheers mates. [HAND=345546]

3/6 is easy

twotimesopt — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 04:50:51 +0000

[img]http://uoregon.edu/~kcorcor1/blog/600nl-ez.JPG[/img] What a good first session back at 3/6. Played well for the most part, several coolers, one questionable call against FastEddie with set vs. TPGK, and a few tough spots. Hands below - any comments appreciated. :( http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/335579 - Goddamn, alarm bells were ringing. I know this such an obvious shove, it just h...

2/4 results

twotimesopt — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 03:55:57 +0000

Hello Blog World Well, my plan was to play 10k hands of 2/4 to get back into the swing of things. But I am cutting it short at 5k hands. I just finished a +10BI 2.5k hand session, which is rather long for me, considering that I haven't been playing at all recently. Anyway, I'm finding the 2/4 games to be WAY easier than 3/6-5/10 which I am used to. Also, the games are really good - a lot...

i just submitted a 20 page project report. wow, i'm glad that's over. only 1 more exam, an 8 page paper, and a presentation left... i played/ran well in october at 3/6-5/10. i've barely played this month (3k hands, maybe) and i was playing pretty shitty in the 5/10 full ring games. i also played some PLO which was a horrible idea because I really don't like that game, I don't think it's ...

94 BI Downswing

twotimesopt — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 00:12:13 +0000

Haha, not really. Just wanted to give a shout to FrinkX, who apparently took a 26 BI downswing today. Sounds fun. Oh yeah, what's a downswing again? Anyway, I built a new computer in early September - JUST NOW finally got it totally working (ugh...). I haven't been able to take any screenshots, so here are my stats for the September, October, and the beginning of this month. [img]h...

Update of sorts

twotimesopt — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 02:45:43 +0000

1/3 NL live Villain hit a little heater and has been playing very very LAG the last few orbits, raising nearly every hand. I have 500 behind and he covers. Folds to him in SB. He min-raises to $6. I have KsTc and consider repopping him here, but I have about 0 fold equity so I decide to flat and see a flop in position. Flop: AdJdQh YAHTZEE! Flopped the nut straight baby! He don...

Okay, something is up with inline images in blogs. When I post the url it inserts a "< x >" into the url (no quotes or spaces). And, once I fix that it STILL doesn't show up when you click on the blog like (like from the left side menu) but if you look at comments then it works. See below posts for examples. Just thought I'd give a heads up if this isn't already known.
