What a good night
...............................................

for the support of leatherass:

@ least you're smart and didn't move up to nosebleeds. if you had moved up to nosebleeds.... you would have ran bad and lost much, much, much more $$$..... i salute your discipline...... and best of luck to you..

i just expected this type of blog more of a micro-ish player who really hasn't made much money from poker.

it really comes across pretty bad coming from you. esp. since you own the training site and stuff. again, best of luck in your future endeavors.

I know nothing about leatherass, but isn't the entire point of the 24 tabling grinder style to have 50k breakeven stretches and live off rakeback?

yes, fpp pro's ftw

idk care bout this

Those lucky few who HAVE gone through this (>6 months of constant butt****ing) know exactly how he feels.

For those who HAVEN'T gone through it, his post probably sounds incredibly whiny. But you can't possibly understand until you go through it. Seriously. Most of you never will. Be very, very happy.

I don't know care bout this

...makes sense

he's such a tool.

work on your game Beatrice

bum hunters are gay. LA is king bum hunter

Meh, sounds like my entire poker career.
Graph?

WTF. Is he serious? Didn't he make a million in the last 10 months. And he says he is the unluckiest poker player. He made more than 99% of the population last year.

Is this a level. I think this is a level. I get it, he's trying to be funny.

Eh, hold on, I read his entry more closely and some comments/other blog posts re variance.

It looks like LA thinks 4ptBB/100 while 12-tabling mid-high stakes is running average?!? And that he "deserves" to run 8ptBB fairly often, to "make up" for his downswings?

If that's the case, I have zero sympathy, and sincerely hope for his sake that he never REALLY runs bad.

Seriously, wtf is this??

He can't be for real can he??

I understand how warped running bad can make you feel, but he was bragging not too long ago, or at least posting graphs that made it feel like a brag.

LA, no disrespect. Take a break for AWHILE. A month maybe, get the fire back, and then let that **** be water under the bridge. You are a winning player at HS poker while 12 tabling. That's more than just about anyone can say. GL sir.

Your not running bad, your internal expectation meter is broken.
