Re: No Money Heads Up Everyone's Solid

hu cash regs have improved a lot the past few months and the ratio of fish to bumhunting regs is only getting worse. I've only ever played regs that I know have leaks that I can exploit, as well as any fish i can get but lately both of those have gotten markedly worse.

I'm working on my game (theory and emotional control) with the aim of getting to the point of being able to exploit more regs.

I can do this with some confidence because:

1. I have money saved up
2. I have an excellent degree and could get a decent career (the critical point being so long as I don't pursue poker too long as I don't want a 5 year gap on my CV)
3. Number 2. gives me some belief that I have the intellectual capability, as it was a tough science degree.

I worry about the future everyday.

Re: No Money Heads Up Everyone's Solid

Barewire and ICMoney both over great advice in this thread. I can't believe so many people are offering such constructive advice to someone who does nothing but throw cheap shots and attack a community that could actually help him improve. But I guess that just speaks to how awesome our HUNL community is. (Uh oh I'm starting to sound holier than thou)

Seriously, online poker is still very beatable (and I'm saying that in the midst of a 50kish downswing). It's all about having the right mentality when you play and absorbing as much information as possible (both from this forum and from your opponent's play).

I'm gonna write a long thread at some point about why I've been failing at online poker lately but I can promise you it's not a result of a lack of fish

This. I'm bad and it's working for me. Plus Rush is really addictive somehow. It's the crack of poker.

So typical og 2+2. I open a thread expecting good advice and I get nothing. You are all losers in bed IMO.
