Pure Cashgames

I AM SO FUCKING FAIL THIS MONTH AT MTT

how did i run so good at MTT for 4 years? Am I just payin the price for 20+k/month now? how standard is this? i've played over 40k mtt's, and never downswung like this....ever....

fuckin lotto tickets

this guy..

look at ur lifetime MTT results

compare them to ur lifetime CG results

and why do u always get urself in trouble?

ur stuck in a loop of shortterm memory, i have no fucking idea how its possible to make the same misstake this many times over and over and over again

do u never learn? Goldfish might be a more suitable name for u

gl tho

longple im winning at cash and getting slaughtered at mtt's, my br can't sustain it. im getting shortrolled man. im not staked.

very stressful

goldfish LOL awesome!

longple if i had another 25k i wouldn't stop mtting.

i have a few grand.

have to move down..

Dude you won 25 buyins in a pretty big upswing judging by the (positive) coolers you were posting nonstop and suddenly you destroy cashgames?

You are so ridiculously short-term result-oriented. MTT has massive variance, 25k downswings with the buyins you're playing isn't that uncommon..

varaince is big in both gametypes

what does ur lifetime say? these are the results u should focus on

i dont have anything against u and everytime ive thought well give him a break he seems like a nice guy, maybe its not gonna happen again but now even my naive mentality is starting to really see the pattern, u shouldnt just switch games because ur haveing a bad month or two

or even 6 months or what ever

variance in mtts are huge

look at ur lifetime when shortterm is haveing to big of an effect on ur mindset, its easy to get caught up in variance

if u dont have a bankroll to play the mtts u played last month then u should move down, those mtts will be more profitable and its important to move down to rise again

i moved down to 1/2 this year and put in over 100k hands there and i havent played a hand there in years. but its important to take a step back because of these things, mental issues, bankroll, etc etc and now im playing 5/10 again stronger then ever just a few months later.

dont switch gametypes because of variance its only gonna make it worse, just wait for ur first 40 buy in DS in cashgames, what are u gonna do then? can u handle that? are u even a winner in the games?

u have no idea about these things because u have no substainable sample or proof of these things

and its not like ur history is saying anything else

this is in my opinion a terrible terrible idea and u are probably gonna pay for it, just like every other time uve made the same misstake for the same stupid reasons

which limits/ types of CG do you play ryan?

i feel like i should have been a cg playre for the past few years, but i wasn't patient enough to work up the limits to where i wanted to be

right now im splitting my nl200 action til im fully rolled

its just the hands i post longple, no reason to post my pure value hands and set over sets etc most the time.. altho sometimes i do

This is a nice, well thought out post...boosted further by relating to self examples.

It's just a pity it will go completely unheeded.

you should have around $10k+for NL200 zoom minimum imo

15k minimum imo

(for a winning player in the games)

since u dont even know if u are winning u shuldnt be playing that high in the first place

play nl50 with 5-10k or something if u want to start over again as a "cg player"

hows it make sense to split your action for nl200 zoom when theres nl50-100 zoom available with softer competition?

after so many years, are u guys still trying to give neilly advice and still trying to point out how he forever repeats the same mistakes?

i think this is what is called "irony"

i didn't realize that gold rush was nielly untill now LOL.

NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE.

(in previous blog posts)

GL LP,
Ryan

wasn't a hint?

Ryan is a common name

Like Ryan Gosling for instance.

You're just downswinging. You were running pretty hot the last few months. Just move down stakes. Don't quit those MTT's, you crush the fuck out of them.

But do what you got to do I guess. GL either way

GL Ryan!

+ Show Spoiler +

this guy is still better lookin than me without his teeth lol

Because he's the hero LP deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Kneilly.

Well if you're going to do this, you should be posting daily updates to keep you honest.

longple I appreciate all your posts.

I'm not quitting MTT's for life or anything, I've always been a winner up to NL100~200 at ZooM.

I'll move down to NL50 for a while and put in a ton of hands and work my way up, every 50bi for each new limits. i'll wait for 15k for nl200 thanks for the advice sir

out of the 40-45kish i split with john (got around 15k cuz lifecosts / moving etc) - i sent out about $12k in debts. i have a few 1-2k debts left, but nothing huge. theres a ptp thing that i have paid more on as well. was 45k in debt, now under 10. not worried, ppl are happy, keepin myself cashpoor 99% of the time. Jlost88 / Lostaccount can vouch for everything here. He was my backer, we're close friends, he saw me sending out the funds nightly.

lol never hu

only 6max and mtt's

I've been beating 6max from NL10-NL100 consistantly in the states during the time I was off, I had recent highlevel training from some great players, and understand the difference from MTT's to Cashgames Much better now. Thats all I can say about that.

I make hourly in cashgame ~20-60, when I have 40k bankroll, my hourly in MTT is ~70-150/hr if im running normal/good.

I'm not planning to be the best in the whole wide world, but I am already very solid and good, I do check back a few too many rivers, I am improving in some aspects for sure as the games on stars are a little different, but I'm winning and playing well, this is all that matters.

I'm dropping to NL50 for a lil while, then I'll go to NL100. I was being stubborn playing NL200, thanks for your advice guys.

Are you on coke ?
