yeah and at nl2 nobody cares calling him to piss him off.

You trained a guy with no working limbs but a working brain.
Paisting has working limbs but no working brain. I would wager he doesn't even respond to your post.

Kinda sad tbh. I guess the myth will live on!

Hey Paisting, with so many pokersites offering daily/hourly freerolls, why aren't you grinding them instead?

Playing the GGPoker daily freebie alone is worth $117 a year (mb more for a crusher like yourself). CoinPoker have a ton decent value MTT freerolls daily.

Also here's a link to daily freeroll passwords: https://freerollpass.com/#freeroll-schedule.

Cut up your credit cards and build your bankroll from freerolls, if you improve you can move up to NL2 and beyond, if not you'll still be up a few hundred bucks every year anyway!

Poker is great, but only suckers need to deposit. GL!

What you don't understand is that $2nl is unbeatable so he should not have to move up from freerolls to $2nl. He just plays $2nl (and now $10nl) because he wants to give money away (?) while proving it isn't beatable.

Painting , I am a little bit butt hurt you don’t hit me back, just to chat. Truely yours. Your biggest fan.

he also did not respond to my offering to travel to finland and take him out for a night about town. i haven't gotten over it, but i've learned to live with it.

I mean the optimum Strat in this spot would have been beat some small stakes with me then him take you out in Finland. Those Finland girls are hot as.

Instead we may have to be satisfied with seeing him shoving QQ pre for 400bb and him running bad

Sadly he removed the video.

The video wasn't interesting. He's just a bad player and he's not going to upload a video of himself on raging tilt.

He is probably worried someone recognizes him.

Paistings you take this offer!

put on some sunglasses and go!

this is the best you could have ever wished for. stream that ****!

Pretty great offer from Koshko. I hope he takes you up on it when he checks back in.

that is a great strat and one i will gladly partake in if it presents itself!

i agree with you about the Finnish girls but as a Swede i'm doing alright here at home!

why not? Raph Darko does it all the time! dude's hilarious.

I did a little prop bet with some friends, i had to stay awake and grind like a boss to beat the amount hands nanonoko played in 8 hours( world record). I managed to get it done in around 16 hours or so.

Had to be profitable over the 16k at 200z or up 1knl reg table.

Seeing as though you only post graphs that are usually spiraling down in trend. Here is a little bit of motivation for you.

The volume is around 12k 200z rest 1knl .
14bb/100 200z with 1400 profit.
1k nl ws 88bb/100 with 6k or so profit.

Played a bunch vs Linus's room mate at 1knl HU on acr , so that was fun, safe to say i smoked him etc(ran better)


Come on paisting i know you're in there.

By stake and after i added my laptop hands to the DB

Fish on heater obv, no way you could do that at 2NL against the best players in the world Kosh. Nit whales would eat you up.

The nit whales who keep hitting their J4o two pair are unbeatable 100%

I wouldn't agree, I thought it was very interesting.
You could tell a lot from the video with the way he explained things. I remember a hand where some nit 4bet shoved him after he made 3 bet with KJs, the frustrated "I have to call off here".

He was definitely on tilt, if I would ever play like that I would call it raging tilt for sure. Paistings A game is equivalent to the average regs raging tilt mode. Paistings raging tilt would be far beyond what we know in poker as tilt.

There are many hands I have seen paisting play over the years, when people say oh the whales hit etc etc, at no point in time do I ever see or hear people say “my opponent doesn’t have a bluff here, he is likely ahead and just happily click the fold button”.

The most valuable thing you can learn to click is the fold button.

Take your mouse out to dinner, pamper her, never beat her or throw her on the floor. She’s your best friend and you will need her.

Tilt only derives from the lack of understanding the game. Most people think tilt is from people just losing and trying to win it back but it’s not true. If you truely understand the game , the times you’re tilted you are thanking that button clicker for being a omegawhale and are excited for the next spot to come up where he pays you off.

It’s funny the brain never really remembers the times the whale paid you off, but it sure as hell remembers when he went runner runner with A4o.

The fantastic thing about gto in my opinion is it functions as a tilt breaker. If you learn the tools to gto , it very rarely enables you to get annoyed about a spot, because you completely and utterly understand it.

Anyway after playing 10k hands a day at zoom you will be so accustom to “bad beats” you won’t even lift an eyelid or bat an eyebrow or put your mouse in guillotine choke after each session.


I thought to myself what advice can I give up and coming poker players that I wish I had and that would be: “keep it simple stupid”. You don’t need to learn 4 million sizings on 4 million runouts. You only need to learn a couple but you sure as hell know them inside out and back to front.

A couple people asked me about coaching, i would honestly out of everyone recommend Stefan Sothimiers poker code. I have had my database evaluated by him and it’s hands down the cheapest most effective coaching content you can buy. Im in no way shilling for them but that is just my honest option. It’s like 89 bucks a month and the community is fantastic, the training videos are super easy to understand and they make everything quite simple and digestible.

All of these other poker courses by “the masses” are butchered, hard to understand in my opinion and over complicate things in order to sound smart.

Anyway, sorry for the hijack paisting.

Not really that sorry you still haven’t gotten back to me, all good though your probably in the Bahamas or something getting ready to finally beat poker, likely sitting on a beach sipping coconut water thinking about how everyone in poker will eat their words and will want coaching from paisting the 6 max wizard that once was lost but then found.

Cheers y’all

You should really take Koshko up on his very nice and good offer Paisting. But you won't cause he haven't even taken any of the simple advice given in this thread earlier that would have helped you greatly even if some is/was from a meh micro/low stakes winning player like me. Beating 2nl and micro stakes really is very easy even if you're a meh player who still makes mistakes like I am. I personally find it completely mind boggling there's players who can't beat 2nl and micro stakes out there.

Some of us would love to have been given such an offer by a seemingly very good solid player and seemingly nice guy like Koshko. Personally Paisting while I'm enjoying this trainwreck like everyone else......in the end I really would like to see you turn it around Paisting and start winning some money back.


Cheers!!!

Koshko,
you ran above EV... how hard is it to win then? seriously. you probably weren't even put in a position where you had to open shove any amount of BBs over a min raise with any two cards due to tilt, i mean to punish the whales!

also, this is Paistings thread. link your old blog if you wanna brag you're likely closer to being banned from the thread by him than him accepting your coaching offer.

The best advice I could give someone that plays 2nl that is trying to move up is don’t play it.

The games rake structure is way too high, so if you’re not playing a 16/15 nit vp/PFR you’re going to make too many mistakes preflop that is eaten up by the rake.

Yes 2nl is somewhat easy but in hindsight it’s full of people like paisting just spazzing out blasting it off. 2nl would tilt the hell out of me to, it’s like being told to live in a cardboard box, but in that box, learn to run, swim and climb.

Learn to play poker, become good with fundamentals, get a small part time job and play higher.

This whole 2nl community needs a kick in the backside if I’m honest!

Hahaha you should have asked me how I felt at the 10k mark at zoom when I was still breakeven.


Hahahaha yeah that was the angle I was aiming for tbh

great post! the bits about folding big holdings vs the narrowest of ranges, as well as being thankful and excited for whales playing the way the do is crucial to success in this game. without the luck factor in poker most of us wouldn't be able to play this game for a living (see chess)! thank you suck out whale, come again! patience is a virtue.

2NL confirmed tough stake to beat. You realise this is the only thing Paistings' confirmation bias will allow him to process from everything you have written right?
