ya sorry I just realised that came across a bit dickish ...... no idea why I phrased it that way --- meant to say great work, once you have a few years at school I look forward to seeing your perform at the ROH

I had aubrey marked as a fish too, but she does alright so maybe she just found some strange style that works.

I get called the N word a lot on line which I couldn't figure out for the life of me. It dawned on me recently that my home town shows as Oakland CA so I must be a homie.

rant:

why does hem hud only show the mucked cards 90% of the time?? i swear sometimes i think programmers deliberately introduce bugs into their software just to annoy the user.

if this continues i'll have to release my own programs:

poker trucker: for mobile professionals
holdem menagerie: for all the sharks, fishes, donkeys, and monkeys

yeah i noticed that too

what are yalls thoughts on this?

my last 30 hulhe sit n goes have taken me from a 37ish percent ROI to a 22% roi. ive had a horrible losing streak, including 2 five loss streaks and a 4 loss streak. is this normal variance or have a crossed the line of normal variance? also i need encouragement to keep playing. it seems like my opponents are always managing to river me or just catch good hands in the high blind structures but im never sure.

IMO playing this guy regularly is a mistake, he's a good reg. I mean, would you expect a fish to be able to pick up a nickname like this ?

Talue Vown is Phil Hellmuth incognito.

He always seemed solid to me so I generally have avoided him.

Merry Christmas to all

So I degened it up and played a bit of 30/60. This guy seemed to be rather solid and I'm mostly playing him cause it's way harder to sit out than to sit in when you're in gamble mode.

However his river cap in this hand surprised me a lot and I was truly shocked at showdown. Any chance this could be rationalized, or is this just random spew ? I've been 3-betting like 25% and not getting crazy at all postflop fwiw.

Your 3bet and his cap are both spews imo.

Yeah I agree. The raise was more out of frustration than anything else.

Yesterday, I played 1300 hands. Out of those, among other fun things, about 20 were just like the one above plus some set over set, flush over flush, boat over boat, flush over set, boat over flush etc., etc.

Most of those hands were in my SB, which resulted in SB W$SD being 28 by the end of the day. Lowest point -124BB.

I did game select great, though!!!

Quickest session in history.

Hero waits for Villain.
Villain sits down.
Hero dealt 42o in SB.
Hero folds.
Villain sits out.
Villain leaves.
