Put in a decently long study session last night and then another one today and think I plugged up a couple leaks I had. Have 1 close spot to post, not sure how wide villain is shoving but Chris is an aggro reg. HH converter isnt working, sorry

This weekend my roommate is gonna hopefully help get me back on track for my prop bet. The plan is for him and I to team up and play the exact same schedule, stopping for the same breaks to eat/rest etc. We're hoping to get our grocery shopping done early in the day tomorrow and then playing 40 hrs in a 60 hour time period from friday afternoon-sunday evening. Should be a good challenge for us, and a good chance to make some good money with the soft weekend games! Sour thing is I likely won't be able to pay that close of attn to the Packer game, will have it on in my room probably but won't be paying much attn.



Anyway, enough about this coming weekend;hoping this slight uptick continues, I'm piles under EV at the $30 hypers (like 6k atm), hopefully heater it up and catch up to my redline





Will post a full VPP breakdown + stats after I'm done playing today.



Yea, but nothing like the sick $ swings that you get, pretty intense tbh.

And <3 having all these clubs nearby, too bad I spend too much money at them

Yea starting a couple days ago, I moved down to 15-17 tables instead of my usual 20+. Trying to play better instead of just pumping out as much volume as I can as quickly as possible.

WRT TN, make sure you have "Automatically close finished tournaments...." under Opening/Closing > tournaments, set to 2.0 seconds. I had it on 0.0 or 0.5 and then TN would sometimes not realize a table closed and therefore you'd only have 10 tables up and it'd think you still had 15 up. If that doesn't work, I have NFI

Glgl at these awful games!

Thx man, what are u playing these days anyway?

Haha sfthis

You know you play on Merge when you look at the massive spikes in that graph and wonder what kind of streak you hit. Lol. Keep it up. I'm excited to see how you do during the 40 hours of play in 60 hours stretch!

This can't be good can it ?

First of you said "not sure how wide villain is shoving",to call that wide after saying that is really bad imo.

But even if I think he is close to 100% you should not be calling with J5 ,maybe J8+ ,J9+ seems fine.(maybe J5s-J6s could work)

The above is good for posting here I guess ,maybe no one will steal your blinds now .I'm going to be JJ+

Just my views have no clue if it is fact right or wrong,did not run it in wiz

Calls fine

Not posting my thoughts on villian as i dont think its fair to sippin or myself

edit: but ya i think everyone knows i call lighter than almost anyone else

double edit: your J8+, J9 isnt even close

You make no sense at all ,you ask for thoughts but refuse to say how wide you think the villian is because you posted his name,lol

You then say you're not sure about the call ,which you called with J5os ,I then say J8+ and you then say that is not even close ,lol

To call with J5os here and say "i'm not saying what my thoughts are" is lol,you have to put him at 85%+ ,anything less and your J5 call is LOL


Confused


(i'm guessing stuff like wiz and icmizer will tell you T2os is a call if he is 100% ,but that is a mistake to)


It shocked me that you can call someone in this spot with J5 ,after saying "i'm not sure how wide he is here,but I know he is aggro ".That stands out more than anything,you got to be 100% that he is 100% and J5 is close to break even ,imo of course ,bet i'm close to right though ,lol

midsesh, will respond l8er

Looks meta to me.

GL jdawg. mucho respect

Re TN. The sng closer is obselte now as stars has it built in, you probs missed it post bf.

Options then Advanced Multi Table Options then Tick Auto Close Sng without notification.

First post in a while on your thread, still an avid reader.

Well we had a bit of a catastrophe here in la casa tonight, StartingGun's internet wasn't working when he was midsesh . Luckily, I was near the end of a session, so as soon as I finished, we just traded and he played on my comp while I tried to get his working to no avail. After he got done though, he rebooted and reset the router and messed with some settings, and all seems to be normal once again. Pretty sour that he had to have internet problems midsesh as that's literally like the most tilting **** ever, but it could be worse I suppose, his comp could just not work or something silly like that.

Anyway, I've got a good score going through 4 games at $100-299 sngs as Ive gotten 1st/1st/2nd in $100 6mans and 3rd in a $100 9man, so I'm gonna try to game select some soft stt's tonight and see if I can build a good score for the low BoP board.



Haha . And yea for sure, will be awesome if we can do it, I think with us both doing it, our motivation level will stay up which will help for sure.

Tyty sir, same to you, hows the 180 grind treating you?


Oh ****, didn't even realize that. Ty . Hows the grind going for you?

terrible call

Okay.

stopped playing for 6 months, got myself a full time job and i just started playing again, hypers too but lower level than you (tired of SSing). i am now more able to think outside the box has i had time to make a good introspection.

edit: reason of my come back is i want to keep supernova (they got me in their marketing i guess haha)

HEM/HUD aren't working for me either, cliffs on how to fix?

damn thats so true man
+1

If this is your thought process above and the way you play ,then I gtd you don't make money at hypers without RB

Close to saying you might even be -1% ROI at best.

Do I hear prop bet,any thoughts?

Could get interesting now........

This post is pretty idiotic

You act very very childishly for your age, assuming that you are indeed in your 30s as I believe you told me.

Tbh I'm very serious,what part of the above is childish?

We disagree with the play,I then go onto say what I think of your thought process ......

It didn't even cross your mind that you could fold and shove into a nitty BB,Sippen will shove tighter from the BTN in the next hand and the big stack is another nit.........

I'm helping you out and you don't see it,as far as the prop bet goes I know that is something you like doing

Let's put our money where our mouth is and do what we do best and make some money .

Lol, it obv crossed my mind, I think this might be the lightest call I've made and its a +0.08 call if he shoves at least EQ which is only 78%..I personally think he can be wider than that.

Anyway, sorry for lashing out at u, I guess I thought u were being hostile towards me. You and I both know I don't have $s for a prop either, + I suck at putting in volume .

So yea, I'll be the pussy here and say no, that I don't have the stones to put my money where my mouth is even tho im not even really talking ****, the call is fine to make sometimes....its not a play i normally would ever make.

Fair comment

Not sure about that call, but just think about the good long term effects it may have!

Anyways thanks for the TN advice, I'm dead honest when I say I never knew that tab was there...(SNG newb I know).

All the best!

He was calling to see where he was at obv

sippin line didnt make sense... have to call.

it just got real ITT... threadsavers have never been needed more!!!

It's a good thing that you're getting all of your runbad out of the way for TCOOP. As long as you don't have to withdraw I think you're golden to at least final table the Main.

Hes not playing TCOOP unless he's changed his mind in the last couple days.

I love how in one forum Jdawg is snap calling J5o with 6bb and in another demetri1978 is asking about folding JJ with 3 blinds.

LOL meca talking trash again
