Do you coach other players?? How much per hour?? If not, are you interested in coaching?? Great thread, gl

Awesome you started this thread, and appreciate your genuine/honest answers. Already my new fav PG&C. GL on the year!

Been grinding away at hu sngs and trying to work my way towards supernova elite asap. Right now at 950k, so close. Also got some mental game coaching from Jared Tendler and it went pretty well, looking forward to our next session. I definitely think he will be able to help me improve some aspects of my mental approach to poker.

Here is an interview I did recently with husng.com if any of you guys are interested in the read...

No, I play on my own. Not sure probably 80kish. Biggest won was 110k.


Thanks. Sometimes I play some NL 2-7 tripledraw when action is dead. That is about all the spewing I do.

Ya, I am a bit hesitant to talk strat although maybe I can post some entertaining hands when they come up.


Haha ya tht is kinda funny. It was a really long time ago and it was my only job I ever had for all of 2 months, but ya pretty cool. I remember quitting and my boss asking me why and me telling him I was going to play poker instead. He laughed and said, "Good luck with that, come back here in 2months and tell me how it worked out for you". Never came back in.



I never really had that climb, I degenned and somehow skipped a bunch of stake levels :/

I would say be willing to play everyone, especially the regs that give you the most trouble. It will be a good thing in the long run.

Ya we only played 1 session really. I think he won a buyin and yes he ran v v v hot.

Hmmm I am not really sure. I did have some pretty big losing days that cost me big chunks of my roll. One day I lost 210k playing ivey at 500 1k cap with allof my action. But I went in with the right mindset that I was willing to lose, so it didnt upset me that much. Looking back on it, I wish I had stoplossed after 3 buyins. Oh well.

My advice to people in a big downswing would be to slow down, play less tables and play as focused as you can. As soon as you feel you are losing an ounce of focus, take a break and recharge. It is really important to minimize your mistakes/losses amidst a brutal downswing.

Dont shy away from playing the best regs at your stake levels.

Thanks man.

Come at me bro

I am not sure they are in love with the fact I play poker, but they know I enjoy it so I think they are okay with it.

I am not sure, everyone is different. How most people got good is probably much different then I did. But probably the most important is too immerse yourself in poker, have friends to bounce ideas off of, and always challenge yourself.


Thanks

Thanks

nice thread, gl.

Sweet!

have played live with you before at the borgata and u seemed like a cool dude. GL on this sick ****** challenge

Sick thread. Subbed.

GL!

HUSNG: Are you a believer/participant in a sort of "cartel" of players that discourages new regs from moving up and sitting high stakes games?

DC: No comment.

more on this? did you think no comment was better than "no"?

The very small highest stake reg community does have pretty substantial incentive to prevent new players from moving up. Whether or not they have such a group I have no idea, but it makes sense and would just be to their own benefit. Not convinced it would be unethical or anything even if it did exist.

Subbed! Looks like you crush the games, what stakes did you start out with? Biggest things that helped you move up steaks? Sorry if asked already.

subbed

Awesome thread, big respect for doing it

I guess I am a hu sng noob because I dont quite understand what the substantial incentive may be. Is it so that new regs do not come in and steal their action by sitting on empty tables?

edit: I am not trying to derail this thread by any means, if just one person can answer my question that would be great. However lets not ruin a great thread by turning this into a big discussion, thanks.

How have you not gone back to rub it in?

I played with you briefly this past summer (Aria 10/20nl I believe). You exuded an EXTREME image of self-confidence/cockiness. I don't mean that in a bad way; you didn't come off as one of those players who's ego is so big they just seem like a dick (and there's plenty of them). Just someone supremely confident that they're the best player in the game.

Anyways, I'm wondering if you're aware of that image and whether it's intentional. I picked up on it immediately at the time, and when I saw your picture ITT I remembered it immediately.

if there would be some sort of agreement between regs to keep sitting a new reg that is trying to move up he'll have a tough time adjusting... Not sure how unethical it is, either. At least bit tho imo.

Best hands folded pre intentionally in a hyper?

This is most sick thread I have ever seen in 2p2.

The Fat Man face is so cool, thats real trolling

Do you have plans to bring a protege under your wing the way livb did with you? Or maybe you already have?

Makes sense. People have been trying to do this at HU cash but you can simply leave. On HUSNGS you gotta play the better regs so you have no choice but to stay at the limit your skills really beat. Thats why HU sngs are still somewhat fine ethically. Big bosses are preying on ******* bumhunters

openfolding is for nits

in, great challenge, gl

also sick .gifs itt

Subbed, gl!

Hi,

Sorry for my very bad english.

Im a winning player of the 200-500 turbos & regspeed husng. (with a prettty mediocre ROI lately i have to say)

I have 2 questions dear you -

1/ As every regs, im facing from time to time regwars or new winning players trying to move up, sitting lobbies on my limits or trying to attack me...

My question is, what can you do facing the typical decent player who will never drop a hand, when hittting endlessly nuts, hand after hands, game after game, during quit substancials periods ?

What are your basic adjustments facing this, considering you ofc never hit a damn board and your only chance to win being bluffing; this player CALL OFC ALL YOUR BLUFFS knowing you are card dead or something (it could be another question btw, how does he knows im always behind calling me ENDLESSLY Qhi even J hi ?? .... wtf ?)

The natural strategy i adopted was to limping something like 70/75 % of my range folding the bottom of it, and essentialy checkraising only for value with ofc a balance..)

2/ Finally as weird as it sounds, after years of poker, i authentically would like to ask you how do you do, to fold a set or even 2 pairs ? Because i have to admit that, except having reads on villain or on scary boards and/or obv drawy boards, i call way too often those hands considering we're heads up and villain has a very often substancial bluff range on those limits...

I mean is your decision is essentialy based on a parameter ? like a feeling of power from villain or is there anything else ? If yes how do you recognise its not a bluff CONSIDERING WITH A SET WE ALSO ARE NOT FAR FROM THE NUTS HEADS UP AND THIS WAY ONE COULD SHARING THIS FEELING OF POWER OURSELF ON OUR HAND ?

Obvious timing tells & sizing exclude, HOW DO YOU EFFING FOLD THAT MONSTER ????

I'm listening to you.
