I'm glad I came out here and am staying with myth. I frequently randomly ask him various poker questions and he teaches me so many useful things.
Like today. The internet in the apartment was taking a shit, and it got me thinking about how the internet randomly quits out on you during important hands in online poker.
Me: [revelation]You know, live poker mis-deals are like when the internet goes out while you're playing online!
Myth: Totally, its like when you have Aces and a 7 comes on the flop.
Me: You're right! Aren't 7's like the 2nd most commonly dealt pocket pair?
Myth: Common misconception-- they are actually the 3rd most.
Me: Ohhhh.. That's because someone at the table always has 72o [atleast, someone always has to complain about 72o as they muck preflop], so its less likely that 77 is dealt, right?
Myth: Incorrect.
Me: ?
Myth: Sometimes, poker seems counter-intuitive. Just stick with me and you'll learn a lot!
Then the internet came back!
Other than that, I saw the Wolverine movie today and enjoyed it a lot.
Pokerwise my goal is 10k for the month and I haven't played as much as I ought to for various reasons. I'm at 1.8k so far, so I'm almost 1k behind pace for 10k. I have been really experimenting with some play styles and in other spots have made some REALLY horrendous spews. I feel comfortable experimenting a lot (mostly being really laggy and messing around with a LOT of different turn lines), but I really need to stop a couple of really spewy calls and a couple of bluffs I've made. Luckily I knew they were fucking horrendous calls/or bluffs, I just have to follow through with the fold or whatever.
Thinking of that sort of brought a thought to my head earlier, and that was simply that the discipline to fold or to give up in certains spots was something I think I had conquered a lot better online. It is just something I need to reestablish my dominion over in live poker.. its cropped up again because live poker moves so much more slowly is all~
Well when I wake up its going to be Friday and I don't think anything interesting is happening this weekend, so I am going to try to put in 40 hours from Friday-Sunday. Hopefully it works out and I run good. I might let myself do like 30 hours if I go out on one of the nights or if I run sick good and have to quit before I winner-tilt half of it away. Anyway, hopefully I will have a monster weekend and I'll catch up to pace, since that is when most of the money is won anyway.

Was this conversation a joke? I missed the insight. Maybe it's a zen koan.
(starting off w/ $600 profit - he obviously scammed someone in a transfer trade) |
