Have you considered crushing 50nl for a day or two to just get yourself in a winning state of mind. I'm sure there's a big chunk of running bad in there (as we know you've got game) but the positive mental impact of breaking the pattern with some unadulterated destruction of bad players might put you back on track.

Statistics don't lie and it's clear you are one of the best at 100nl whatever has happened recently. But do what you need to do bw, whether it involves poker or not. It's not supposed to make us miserable.

Well, I have reviewed hands today and for the most part i am doing absolutely nothing wrong. I think I've been making good laydowns and playing my hands like i always have in the past and all my logic seems good. I know I was tilting pretty hard last month which caused me to be down $4500 or so at one point, but this month I haven't really tilted at all.

Its just really frustrating that I am finally playing better and I'm not tilting anymore, but i still just run into cooler after cooler and suckout after suckout.

You know it already but I'll say it anyway, it'll come around.

[jordanbillie]

Breaking even so far this month. Haven't really had enough time to play 90 person sngs any day yet and struggling to find a positive substitution when I only have 1-2 hrs to play!

have you not seen his graphs??? He has a red line that belgo what be jealous of, so ridiculously laggy, just search for ChicagoJoey on 2+2 and find wher ehe posts his graph

 

[vanquish]

'he's the guy that played 1983123 hands in one month

 

[Irexes]

I've not seen his stats, but he's one of my best friends according to PTR

 

[vanquish]

i really really wanna play some HU but it doesnt get enough VPPs to be worthwhile since i'm chasing this bonus :/

 

[GeoffLacey]

Wait, what? The guy in Rex's hand is ChicagoJoey? That guy is insane lol. He still posts some hands (well he did) in the uNL PokerStars regulars thread on 2+2 which are just ridiculous. Plus yeah vanq, his volume is insane considering his style

 

[vanquish]

-when you were over in american samoa, what... what surprised you the most?
-i guess what hit me the most was the condition of the factory that the workers were in

What is the monetary value of FTP's, say like what is the approx worth of say 1000 points?

 

[S93]

Threefiddy....

But yeah something like 3,50$-4$

 

[GunslingerZ]

What is the monetary value of FTP's, say like what is the approx worth of say 1000 points?

Each point has a value of $0.005, or $5 per 1000. This is the amount deducted from your MGR if you use points to buy something from the store, meaning, you lose 27% of that amount in RB.

Sindri is right in that on the numeric forum the standard rate to try to "sell" your points is around $3.50 per 1000.

 

[vanquish]

so i'm trying to decide between a 16" HP laptop and an 18.4".

gonna order one either tonight or tomorrow!

He posted a hand in ssfr a week or so ago where he 5-bet shoved with 59o at 10/20, AK calls and he sucks out to win a 4k pot. Don't tell anyone but he's basically a nit who likes to do crazy stuff once in a while and obviously posts it so everyone thinks he's way crazier than he actually is.

Just had this discussion last night. You can sell points at $3.50/1k in the 2p2 marketplace or you can work out for specific items in the store on your own. Alternatively the Sunday 750k (identical to warmup although extra buck in rake, $216 750k guarantee first is I believe over 6 figures) it works out to the $5/1k. There are also smaller tourneys I know miniFTOPS allowed point buy-ins not sure about others. But then of course there's the opportunity cost of your time and having to play a donkament.

Also if you have rakeback, selling or spending your points will deduct $1.35/1k from your rakeback. Using it on the tourney will not unless there is overlay.

So using for tourneys: $5/1k
buying something from the store assuming they don't rip you off: $3.65/1k
Selling them in 2p2 marketplace: $2.15/1k

YOU'VE ACTIVATED MY TRAP CARD!!!

 

[vanquish]

[Suited Frenzy]

I've played maybe 1000 hands today on 2 different sites & seen pkt jacks on showdowns 8-10 times (they've lost everytime).

I've only been 1 of those losses but it's gettin' kinda unreal if you ask me... :thumpdown

No such thing as a big enough screen.

True, unless you actually have to lug it around. If it's a basically a desktop replacement go big.
