he sit at my table on the button play it when i sit out he just block my action and when I do play sit out after a winning a couple of hands. every couple of days.who the f.uck does that

BlueTurnip is the only one who springs to mind.

funny, he sat in my SNG other day and berating me for being a bum-hunting scum because i sit out vs him in cash.

After playing the SNG I'm more than happy to take his action.

edit: just fyi pretty sure he lurks these forums so will read all posts

dj: If he grimms a lot (he never has to me, but then i've never played him in a cash game iirc), email stars, they will send out warnings for repeat offences of just playing the btn and quitting

I just played a guy that was -62 bb 100 over 14k hands .Unreal I have never seen that before. Nothing even close

You've obviously never played with Chuck.

H.O.F.

oh and blueturnip said he would play anyone at 5/10, including p12resh and wolfram, and wanted to prop bet me that they would sit out if he sat them

Just take the propbet and give JR half imo. EZ game.

OHHHHHH he'll play anyone at 5/10 he's so brave. 5/10 is too low for e-peen contests, if he's down to play higher I'll play him

rofl at challenging someone at the 5/T raketrap, ill play him 30/60+ for 10k freezeouts whenever he wants, i'm not gunna waste time lowering my hourly to fulfill someones ego

I have no idea who this guy is, but he's welcome at any of my tables anytime.

I WILL 8 TABLE ANYONE AT .50/$1 HU LIMIT, MIN 50K HANDS

Bring it

just typed a long blog. comments welcomed if you read , probably old news to most but probably a few things some new players can take from here

My day of HU PLO 200: 14.5 buyin downswing in 400 hands followed by a 14 buyin upswing in 1k hands.

It's going to take 5 billion hands before I can say whether I'm beating the game or not.

That's amazing. Like the Grand Canyon or something.

Seriously, though, a lot of that post reminds me of myself. Which leads me to think it's rather common.

What are you going to do differently in the future to avoid sessions like the one you mentioned?

Congrats on the sobriety.

Well for one I should have quit the guy when I had him down to a bet and half.

If not quitting him at 1 and half bets I should have quit him soon thereafter cause there wasn't much for me to gain as I was pretty sure he was not going to reload and my play became rather sloppy.

I really think it is all just mental knowing you have to leave the game when conditions aren't at their best but my mind was going in the wrong direction and the match was so long I felt I needed to bust him or I wouldn't be satisfied. I usually don't think this way but the length of the match had me thinking this way for some reason.

Also I probably should have beat him up a lot earlier but I was probably playing way to fast and that isn't the speed that is needed to take out this type of player. Patience and being a lot tighter and solid betting and a lot of checkraising will win vs this type of player.

The one thing I am trying to fix in the way I play is slowing down cause I think I tend to play hands fast in some spots and make some overplays and it costs me sometimes. Don't get me wrong there is a time and a place to play at that type of pace but I think I just get stuck in that gear too often

Also sometimes I will be clicking as soon as the card turns over making snap judgements instead of putting through all possibilities of how to play a hand . When I get caught in that gear my plays become very predictable and I think I leave a few cracks open in spots but I think I have figured out a couple of ways to prevent that.

I actually sat back tonight and really slowed down a bit and thought all my plays through as I made them and it seemed to help as I won about 100 bb straight in my last 3 matches. Hopefully this continues and I can move up within a month or two.

thanks for the quick 300 blueturnip and no need to keep sitting out and coming back it won't change your "luck"

Solid.

china, you said you had a breakeven last week and a downer this week, how much are you down? what kind of swings have you had over how many hands? Good post, but i would say the one you missed from your list is probably being so results orientated in the short-term.

BT was kind enough to pay me a visit yesterday too. pretty sure there was an interesting Q high call down but this is the only i could find

Not getting annialated completely but about 200-250 bb or so which is a little out of my comfort zone as I have never gone over a 100 bb downswing through 100k hands. Just looking to tighten up the bolts so the ship doesn't take on any more water
