I'm so ****ing stupid, why do I do stupid shit like this. My win rate would be so much higher if I didn't make these retarded "hero" calls sometimes. The guy is like a 44/10 so I'm like durrrrrrrrrr he never can win pots against me! 😡 It's even better that it was 150BB deep and I like snap called, god damn I'm stupid. I shouldn't even post this, it's embarrassing..So, so embarrassing.

How do you know how many vpp's you get per hand at certain limits?? For example, how many vpp's do you get per hand at say 6max 10nl?? I've never seen this anywhere yet you can all work out how many hands you need to hit w/e level
 
lol so I decided to play 50-50 last night ($50+5 tourney, 50k guaranteed), wasn't doing great at like 5k chips when average was ~7k, 2nd break I fall asleep, end up placing like 20 away from the money. Ah well, lesson learned I guess, don't start tourneys when you'll be tired before the end and if so don't try to play them laying down on the bed with the laptop. At least when I looked at HEM I ran super card-dead, only hand I wouldn't normally fold any time was JJ but it had an UTG raise and a shove before me so I fold that. So to make money woulda had to re-steal with air or just plain shove with air, and knowing my luck woulda run into AA and lost so I'm not too upset I guess lol.

you go to the arithmetic forum, in the internet poker section, and look for the pokerstars-vpp-per-hand-per-limit thread.

it's about 0.03 vpp/hand at 10nl 6max iirc.
 
LOL, I haven't fell asleep, but I've started a tourny thinking omg I'm too tired to play this. I'm actually grateful when I bust out tbh!
 
WTF is going on in this town. I have been invited to private live games every evening this week, well Tues/Wed/Thurs/Friday. Dunno what to do now Saturday.

well i can see why you took a shot at that particular table 😱
 
Jay thats sick dude !!

Also I am beginning to wonder if stacking KK preflop is a +EV play vs a LAG
 
+ Rep for BW, taken from the other forum

Unlike the wide majority of nl50ers, there are some really good players at nl100 (who are probably there b/c the games suck at nl200 and up atm) who are a huge pain in the ass (for those of you who play 100, xxjrockhafxx and xxbw0757xx immediately come to mind).

TBH, i prefer to sit at about any 200nl table than at a 100nl table with both xxjrockhafxx and xxbw0757xx.

Although the nuts it probably a 200nl with xxbw0757xx. I hear he's a spewtard at that limit... 😱

honestly I don't think you should continue playing that deep while you're taking a shot if losing your stack in a standard beat gets you tilted. I know I often leave if I double up or more at 400nl because I know an $800 loss (assuming someone else is deep too), as even in a std 80/20 beat will send my tilt through the roof.

Not trying to make you feel worse Jay, just tryin to help 🙂

Jay was only 120BB deep though..
 
200nl 6max - is absolutely reg infested during 0900-1800 GMT. I actually can't believe how many tables have regs on them. There was one table I sat at for like 2 hands that had 6 players with TAG stats wtf!

Im not deep 😛, plus you can't leave that much value on the table with the droolers. God the games are so reg infested, you have to play the juicy tables imo.
 
Ehhh jrockhaf isn't a beast but he's very solid and never seems to tilt. BW just spews money to me, so I don't mind sitting with him 😉

Start tables instead of joining full ones. Fishes don't like joining waiting lists. They'll come to you.
 
Yea, I really am just a total spewtard. It pays off sometimes when regs decide to look me up for 3 barrels in a 3bet pot with an underpair, but mostly i just give tons of money to donks trying to bluff them off mid pair.
 
I watched a 100nl video by bottomset and he said xxXjrockhafXxx was a solid regular player at 100nl.Also going to post about 10 hands for HA ina bit which were shitty spots, line checks etc they were hard spots for me which I need some advice on 😀

Also question to BW, Zach, Jag, Belgo, Chuckts, FP all you 200nl+ dudes, you ever come across XxBoyitaliaxX watched a 400nl for fun the other day and saw him sitting at one but he seems to be a reg at 50nl atm?? Anybody have anything on him.

I got 1100 hands on him. 755 at 400NL FR. He seems like just a nit. 9/6/1.7 over my 1100 hands.
