What happened around the 19k mark?

100/200 HU session

This last week has been one of the the most busy and hectic days of my career.
The action has been absolutely incredible, and I was stuck in my chair for nearly 12 hours sometimes, with less than 5 minutes of break.
It didn't pay off, but at least the EV was earned.

And I was again reminded how horrible some of these sites and companies are.
888 wait lists don't work, party poker switches around buttons and doesn't let you play hands, micro gaming won't let me have any histories, weaktight is down every day and my internet works whenever it wants to.

My hands are also killing, because I have RSI on both hands now. I ordered an ergonomic mouse, and I really hope it helps.
Otherwise, I have to adopt a chinese kid to click for me.

Enough ranting, let's see some hands...

edit: FUC K YOU party poker!
This horrible fuc king site is the worst of the worst.

I feel your pain. I can't grind any other site than Stars for longer periods even though I want to. Off loading the clicking and scrolling action to off hand keyboard shortcuts is the only thing that works for me, and it does work really well.

The kids don't know how easy they have it

glorious thread. Thanks for sharing!

I agree about Party

Nice blog, subbed, gl

Try a trackball mouse

i listen to a podcast where one of the hosts has insane RSI issues but has found somewhat of a solution by using wacom pen for some of the time since it uses different parts of the hand

needs some getting used to but maybe this will be your answer!

Use your left hand.

Two handing the mouse centered in front of your body is also a go to for me, forgot that one.

Play on ipads imo

Hire someone to click imo

Can I click for you for a week? Seems like a good coaching deal

I am left handed, but I used my right hand until I fuc ked it up playing video games.
Now, my left hand is gone as well.

Book the plane ticket...

Will your client need to provide documentation proof of nationality? Asking for a friend

It's good enough if he can make some stir fry noodle dishes.

Never be too careful

Going to try my luck in a tournament tomorrow. :O

Oh nice I was actually watching that table when the AA hand went down. Beauty river! Congrats.

Is it true villain slow rolled in the AQ hand? Gl in tourney.

He was thinking about shoving or calling. He was obviously not folding because I have a couple of worse hands for value and I can be bluffing.

Kept skipping this thread for some reason. Saw the hands you posted today, was like "wtf those are NL10k!".
Back to page one to read the whole thing.

Such a cool thread, thanks for posting. GL for the rest of '17.

Soon finished with day 1 of the 10k SCOOP main event.
What a horrible decision to play. I'm stuck here at 7AM, so my sleep schedule will be messed up all week, I can't have my way overdue day off tomorrow, there's a day 3 after that, and I had one of the biggest losing days of my career.

All this moaning warrants some serious run good. At least I have a decent stack with 20 minutes to go.

Busto, 30 minutes into day 2.
With 5 minutes to go in day 1, I lose half my 85bb stack and 7th place.

5 minutes into day 2, CO 3bets HJ and I jam BTN for 40 bb. CO calls after a minute with fuc king AK for 30bb total and I lose.
Shortly after, I jam in my stack and bust, with 4 places until the 23k bubble.
GG

My arms are also hurting and I'm down over 130k this month, so we need some serious run good in here!

Despite the tournament run bad, I will be going to Vegas this year.
