^ Wasn't meant in any kind of derogatory manner, sorry if it read that way. Was just clearing up any confusion that others might find.

Yeah, I didn't take it all that badly; and I wasn't even 100% that you were referring to my post although the ^ made it very likely. My followup was just clearing things up further. I think I might be on a particularly different wavelength from others at the moment, too, so my attempts at jokes might not be easily discerned. blakk is no help to the situation, either. He could be, but his ears and eyes are typically clogged up by big stacks of chips. Anyway, time to move on. Gl at the tables, all!


P.S. GB, consider quoting posts that you are replying to. It will probably make for less confusion in the future.

Re: 2012: from micros to midstakes

sup everybody

i think i speak for all of us when i say FFFFFFUUUUUUU HACKERS!!

but hopefully things have been going well for everybody regardless!

i ve had some pretty fun weeks since the draft day. actually my sesion on the 26th went on to be my biggest day ever so far

so that went on for a few days until april ended with a total profit of $2.2k once again making for my best month ever

but things havent been going all that smoothly ever since. i made the move up to 50nl only to be more or less breakeven AFTER the rest of the reload bonus and rakeback which obv kinda sucked but i did find someareas on that i have been doing some work back down at 25nl which i intend to keep playing unti the end of the month cuz i kinda need to get some cash for rent etc in in a less swingy way. so here are some graphs:

april overall:


may so far:


most adjustments i have been making to my game have to do with redline play ie attacking and taking down all the small pots which is something that got lost in the weeks of april, party because i kinda didnt need to pay attention to that cuz i was running hot in terms of finding fish that like spewing all the time. but at nl50 i got the feeling that regs arent as easy to push around which means that theres need to make more biggish bluffs, coupled with playing tighter overall and position becomes a whole lot more important when choosing a more aggro tactic. so when i m done with changing my postflop play and happy with the results i ll give nl50 another shot whenever that may be. best of luck everybody and to whoever may want to read up on my daily progress since 2p2 went down- i made a blog where i will be posting pretty much the same progress as on here. you never know when a blog might come in handy. plus theres a few interesting hands i posted there as well

will be back posting here later so best of luck guys

Re: 2012: from micros to midstakes

finally managed to log some decentish hours today but wasnt in the best of mindsets cuz a couple friends who wanted to go party tonight came over to first watch the final of the german football cup and then drink before leaving. what they both ended up doing was spew all over my room so needless to say i was/am kinda annoyed lol

still managed to book a nice winning session but ran $70 below EV to one huge fish who got there twice vs me in $100 pots. meh what can you do



hands: 7734
hours: 5.58
profit: $182

When your feeling a little better, could you elaborate on this a little ..

Im almost always playing poker with unfinished stuff floating around in my head ...it means im truly un-prepared to deal with anything negative that might happen on a poker table.
