Who, Why, How, What!!!!!!!!


3 stars for this thread WTF!!!

Will the triator please show themselves!

 

[Jagsti]

Over the last 2 weeks or so I have made some pretty comprehensive changes to my game after running pretty dreadful for a while (basically re-verting back to my old style). Anyways, I have been pleased with the changes and the results have been ok.

Today was pretty brutal though. Extreme cooler citeh!

 

[Jurn8]

About time it turned round Jay IMO !!

Good to see your running ok dude hope it continues

 

[Jagsti]

Still not in the green for the month. But I feel considerably better that I did a few weeks ago. Now if only I could stop my QQ<KK, KK<AA

[eagle jim]

Glad to hear you are on the road to recovery Jagsti.

Taylor that is one sick (as in makes me want to stay at 10nl forever) graph. But I know you will put in the time and work to get back up again.



And a general question.........playing a 11/8 style at 10nl fr.........profitable over the long run??? Last two days ~1800 hands +22bb/100. Never played that nitty before but so far I like it. (cept I have worn a hole in my fold button)

 

[Chris_TC]

Anybody need directions to bustoville? I can help. Going there on a straight line, should reach it soon. Will report back whether it's worth a visit.

 

[switch0723]

move down?

 

[ChuckTs]

On the bright side, youve put in 20k hands, thats good volume for you right?

yeah true. Especially considering I've had massive connection problems for the bulk of it.

I've accomplished a lot this month in terms of the mental game stuff and actual poker game improvement. Just a shame I'm running like poop.

That's awesome then. You know you have done all (or a lot anyway) that you can do. The rest is up to the universe.

Misclicks are teh nuts, imo!

Edit: Great vid, Chuck! Had a lot of good hands and tough spots in it.

 

[zachvac]

lol if he stacks AA in a 5-way pot there calling with J5 pre is probably +ev

 

[eNTy]

It's nice to have a missclick where you don't lose money for once

And yes the universe is a b1tch

 

[eagle jim]

Sindri looked at some hands for me and we both have a question on this hand....would love some thoughts...I know I screwed the pooch by not raising the flop bet (40 lashes.....done) but where to go from here.

[The Shrog]

Just sucked out with QQ vs a flopped set in the very beginning of a 180 man..Q on turn . Now, I am 1/168 to start this thing. Yikes!

 

[switch0723]

wtf, so i go all that way, jeopardising the mission to help Dom find Maria, and he ends up shooting her!!!!!

 

[Jurn8]

yeah true. Especially considering I've had massive connection problems for the bulk of it.

I've accomplished a lot this month in terms of the mental game stuff and actual poker game improvement. Just a shame I'm running like poop.

TBH I really dont see how you can cope with -$3k month, pretty good mental state your in tbh! Hope you run better soon dude!

 

[Jagsti]

Glad to hear you are on the road to recovery Jagsti.

Taylor that is one sick (as in makes me want to stay at 10nl forever) graph. But I know you will put in the time and work to get back up again.

Cheers Jim.

I would imagine playing nitty at 10nl is pretty profitable tbh. As you progress up the limits then loosening up a little will help. But upto 100nl nut pedalling is gonna be profitable at FR like always.

Oh no, you don't have to. Ask mbolt. He plays 19/15 for 6.5ptBB over 90,000 hands. He's just that awesome, I wanna ****ing stab him. And about a million other people.
