Sorry. Big blinds $15x6453.5 ~ $97000. Always difficult to keep the Big Bets and the big blinds apart.

Shabamabam, excellent stuff, keep up the good work.Would you mind if I asked you your stats over that sample, VPIP etc..

I'm sure everyone here just as much as me, would love your two cents worth.

I look forward to seeing any other profitable players graphs.

No. I haven't really played all that much at all. Hands are from last 2 years and a bit.

Played KidKash today as an experiment:

kidKash: if I leave in 30 mins you gonna post I HNR?
abarber: hahahahaha
abarber: not now

Less than 10 min later...

Dealer: kidKash has 5 seconds left to act
kidKash: gg - Im done
Dealer: kidKash has timed out
Dealer: Hand #20785948292 has been canceled
abarber: yep, stand by it
abarber: what i said was spot on
kidKash: anytime your ready
abarber: ty
kidKash: to play 5k hands end escrow that they are completed let me know
abarber: i'm posting this in the thread

When questioned about the 5k hands (which I fully want to play), he would not put side action on it, which I found to be pretty suspect. Thanks KidKash for showing me what you're about.

abarber: you've done it to me and others
kidKash: thats a lie
kidKash: you and I never played a single hand
abarber: false
abarber: wehaven't played on this account
kidKash: oh this is classic

abarber: in 20 hands
abarber: this'll be good
kidKash: naw, I'd rather get action but thanks
abarber: we'll never play again unless i book that 5k hand bet

[abarber]

I have never multi-accounted. Just because I have seen it done to others while I have been present does not make me a multi-accounter.

your words NOT mine!

[drnkyourmlkshk]

Ok I'm gonna chime in here because I feel this is getting stupid and petty. First I know both of you pretty well and although both you are incredibly talented and & good in different ways you both have humungous egos.

Kid kash- please stop following every dude who beats you hu for for Amy amount of money to 6 max tables berating him and challenging him and asking escrow related questions. You wanna challenge the world go ahead but f-ing with other games for your agenda and ego sucks and is bad for the game.

You're a world class hu o8 player we get it but it's fairly onvious you love to book wins and who doesn't! HNR who cares it's unethical yes but looking for an opponent to play until you win or get even is delusional. HNR is a chance we all take as soon as we sit down heads up. I've been playing o8 online since party and a o8 hu specialist normally don't have a long shelf life unless they play all the other games as well.
What's with these challenges and in general nastiness? Can't you see how bad it is for your future?

Abarber you are a great player, possibly the most improved in the last 2 years I've played with. However you were a struggling 3-6 player just last year and you have had some incredable success and I'm happy for you. It doesn't seem you are happy though you are critical of people who play too aggro and you hate passive players as well?

You've made some money and even have people paying you to share knowledge with them!.. It's f-ing awesome but you don't see that. You are in here calling out some hu guy who calls out everyone and it's just silly you can be upset at the result of a known HNR when there's like 30 posts on him being a HNR... Duh

Abarb 2 yrs ago we would play 3-6 and take about making the jump to bigger games and about bigger name players. Dude you have made that jump and you are now one of those.. You got the money bro who cares about the rest.

Gl 2 you both

Gl 2 you both

please point out 30 posts accusing me of being a HNR.. there are not more than 3 people on FTP who play my stakes that I would refuse action to....

two people (to my knowledge) have made posts calling me a "HNR'r" of those "Abarber" slipped up and outted himself as a multi-accounter while taking the opportunity to insult me... The other hides behind his SN and wont come out with who he is..


I do not go around "berrating" players who beat me - I was at your table last night talking smack to another reg cos he actually does HNR me on a frequent basis... I never bring up these players who do HNR in threads.. Would be cool if non-heads up regs would not post bogus spiteful BS in these threads..

I think the bigger issue now is multi-accounting and what we can do about it!!

[drnkyourmlkshk]

Spiteful? Let's see I called you talented and asked why the challenge stuff. I don't care if you hnr every person that sits with you it's obv none of my business. I don't play hu unless starting a table. I didn't say anything about you that was ever meant to be disrespectful, idk how you can't see that.

There was another time at 5-10 same thing as last night happened where u called the dude a fish and challenges him about 3 weeks ago. I'm a solid enough player/person to realize something -ev I asked you a couple of ?s that were not meant to be disespectful sorry if you felt hated upon.

Why not make this challenge to everyone? I think it'd be good railing and good for the o8 community in general.

I was not directing the "spiteful" comment your direction.. I dont take issue with anything in your post other than you commenting like its matter of fact that everyone knows I HNR.. I look for action everyday and frankly nobody that has posted ITT would I refuse action too..

Anyone is free to sit me, I challenge those that want to call me a HNR when they are the ones who really don't wanna play more than 50 hands get ahead and leave..

[DeNutza]

Find it a little humorous you both hit n ran me today and I was actually playing both
of you at the same time at one point while trying to multi table.

Wish I read the tail of this thread, cause I had no idea you guys were regulars, as I usually
dont play that limit, and certainly wouldnt have multi tabled if i had known

You both kicked my arse although I barely played abarber for less than 20 hands id guess.

Thought you both played very well. Have to pay more attention next time we play.

[icancount2one]

Hey, sorry to interrupt the hate fest.

I've been a reg at LO8 for the last couple years and have been winning about 1 BB/100 over about 200k hands. Since May started however, I can't get a break. I'm down about $500 playing 1/2 6max. I run about 35 VPIP, 20 PFR, and 44 WTSD, and I just feel like I've been pounded by rivers lately, losing lots of big pots to two and three outers. Also, over this run it's felt like my opponents' two pair or rough low is always good and mine never is.

Total strangers are playing me like they already know me, picking me off every time I try to steal a pot on a dry river with one pair hands and folding whenever I make something strong. I'm getting paranoid about multi-accounters, which sounds pretty stupid for the 1/2 level.

Since nobody in BBV would know what they're talking about when it comes to O8, how long can a downswing last, and what would be the best way to go about reevaluating my game?

Milk,

Thank you. I don't think I've ever received such a compliment in my life. You're absolutely right. You will only see class exhibited by me in the forum and on the tables from now on. Thank you for letting me know what I need to work on. I wish you continued success.

My worst downswing was a little over 200 BBs, and it occurred 3 months ago. For this reason, it is recommended that you play with a BR of 500 BBs. Regarding plugging leaks, I'd say watch videos, read posts, and get coaching; however, there is a dearth of SH FL O8 videos and posts to speak of. I'll let you draw your own conclusions
