On a non-related topic, we have 9 pages of thread and almost no poker.

Can you share your upcoming poker plans, objectives, schedule, goals, etc.

Is your plan to scrap together a buy-in from your job over the next few weeks and start grinding in December? Is your plan to play in home games twice a week? Are you going to start playing online?

And how did that home game go???

Digi,

The fire alarm is put back up. In my household if bm says do something I just do it. We are lucky to be alive. Even though the fire department leaves across the street from me.

As for right now, I'm looking to play this home game when ever they call me. Was supposed to play last night but no call back. Will probably play today. Goal is to add to the bankroll so I can go to the casino and comfortably shot take with no consequences.

While I'm doing that I'm looking work and take small shots at my home casino. 100$ shots from 300$ a week checks. My job will be to fund poker and family stuff.

Looking to start playing online soon. Just so that I can play and study everyday. Will start off one tabling and using your brm building strategy.

Gonna play the 50 cent dollar home game tonight. Hope I run really hot so I can play the casino game tomorrow.

Online is very humbling. Running like **** at the moment. I lose, win and lose some more. Overpairs are running good. But the coolers I keep getting with my AJ, AQ and AK are just brutal. My sets are not boating up. Had like 4 sets all but one got outdrawn on. The one time my set didn't get outdrawn the board outdrew me. So no value otr, lucky I was even good. Seems like every river I get outdrawn. Can't do **** with bad board texture. My base game plan is 13pfr 5 3bet. So I'm getting good situations playing tight. But its b/f like always on the turn or river. I execute well in those situation. I was just bleeding chips though. And boom a cooler. A few times I did b/c when the board set me up or my stack size was down to a point where I have to go with it.

Blind and lp ranges are adjusted for the situation, ranges, stack size etc.... That's like the easiest part about online. The folding late in the hand is the hard part. You can only b/f so much.

For the love of god man, post some freaking hands.

I'm pretty sure Bovada lets you cut and paste hands and that they have a hands history directory or window that lets you see past hands.

Copy and paste those hands into a hand converter (there are tons of websites that have hand converters or you can PM someone on how to do it) and then after the hand converter converts the hand cut and paste that into this thread.

the only way you will get better is to post hands you win and hands you lose and hands that give you trouble so that people here can comment on it and help you.

You saying, "Man, today was a rough, no one folded when I bluffed but everyone folded when I had a hand..." isn't going to help you. Take advantage of what 2+2 has to offer and start posting hands.

If you look at all of the threads in PG&C they are filled with us posting hands, the good and the bad.

So post hands so we can help you.

and btw, glad you are finally playing.

Yeah definitely need to do that. I played so many hands today can't remember all of them.

I'm sure Bovada should have some means of sending you hand histories, usually you have to enable the option and it will download onto a directory you create (or Bovada creates) on your hard drive.

Then you will have ALL of your hands there and you can go through and select which ever hands you want to list.

You can send an email or PM to Bovada customer service and they can walk you through it.

here is a youtube video on doing it with Bodog

Definitely going threw my HH's this morning. Sometimes idk what the hell I'm doing. My UTG +4 open range is just too wide. All tag hands with a balance of 86,85, 108, 109. I think I should be folding all those regardless how much fe I have pre.

UTG +4 huh?

So I'm still bothered by this hand it happened after I had to b/f AJ on a A9847 board.

UTG limps, Button raises to 20c, Hero sb with A Q raises to 60c, UTG calls, Button calls. Flop 4 K Q, Hero bets 92c, UTG folds, dealer raises to $1.84, now at this point I think I forgot I was in a 3bet pot. I'm thinking like I been getting raised on turns and turns like all day with big hands no way this is value. I'm down a lot at this point not thinking clearly obviously, I say I think he has a fd or a weaker queen so Hero shoves for $3.50, I get snap called, turn K river 10, villains shows 4 4 for the flopped set otb. Bad play by me, but still.
