Fast played against guy who repeatedly was calling with with any kicker, any flop pair:


3-bet bluff vs op who I saw made the same line earlier. He has the A9s...


check 3-bet all in semi bluff on mono flop with open ended straight draw... OP has the A6s...


WTF. Massive downswing... I did receive $6 worth of $2 tourno tickets from my room this session for reporting the bug at least on March 6th.

its not a downswing

Typical...

I'm heads up. Player calls pre raise and shoves flop. I saw them do this earlier with 2 over cards. I called with overcard and potential backdoor flush, and of course they have top pair. WTF.


I think I'm going to go back to tournaments. If I get back to the daily main event, and crush it I can get rolling again. I did receive 3 tourno satellite tickets for a satellite ticket for a 6 figure tournament. So hopefully I can turn those tickets into a entry into that Main event and take it down.

This variance sucks BIG TIME.

I wanted to try to book a quick win in a only 10 minute session, and break this swing. Played NL4. I raise 22 high. get call. check shove flop. Get called by 73o. Has gutshot straight. Hits 3 on turn... WTF.

I dont think you will succeed in poker - your bankroll strategy and your handhistories are awful

Love how you only commented on the post where I got into a hand for free because a dude limped the SB while I was on the big blind. Then ignore all the days where I was playing well, all the detailed range analysis posts I've done in here as well, and then decided to come back and talk s when I'm getting hit by variance. Hilarious. Post your own results then.

You also ignored when I got top 5 in a main event tourney 3 days in a freaking row in a 6 hour + MTT...

How is my "bankroll strategy bad and hand histories are awful"? Let's hear it!

My bankroll strategy of playing the level under, then the one I'm at once I have a buyin? My strategy of having a spending limit on my account? Which strategy is the awful one? LMAO!

My hand histories are:
AQs
QJo
A6o for free
33
34s
AQs
QQ
34s
99
J8s for free
Q7s or free
J4o for free (the hand you commented on, but were so good at the game that you completely missed that I obviously was on the Big Blind and got in for free and decided to talk trash. Genius!)
AA
AQo

Those are the hands I've posted here lmao. Those are bad hands??? lmfao!

YoU're 99.9% likely just a jealous hater just like the itsy mitsi spider who keeps coming up in my threads. If I'm so bad, show us all how it's done Mr. Ivey!

If you're so good challenge me to a bankroll challenge. Otherwise, sit down, be quiet, and learn something.

I am not a hater. I wish you the best, but for me it does‘t look good what you are doing. Playing NL25 with 350 dollar - suddenly playing NL4 for 3minutes and shoving 4th pair 22????? You play with 1/2 a buyin on one table and hope you get lucky?

You failed 2 times already and the new play doesn‘t look better to me.

If you want to succeed you should start with a proper bankrollmanagement at 2NL or 5NL and try to make your way through the stakes….

The J4o hand is a lie. You didnt get in for free as AA raised for sure before…

Sorry man - but this pokerjourney seems to be a big trainwreck for sure…

You’ll probably interpret this as hate which is your right, but what others have tried to advise you on are true:

You’re lack of disciple with proper bankroll management is a recipe for disaster, you’re playing with 10 bi’s and your skill doesn’t appear to align with the stakes you play, this is evident since you always blame variance when you lose to a rec as you state, but regardless of the villain is a rec you’re overplaying your single pairs and your understanding of back door draws isn’t very good.

When someone responded and suggested courses/training sites you listed blackrainpoker as an influence. His content literally is for beginners and you’re not even playing his recommended ranges correctly.

The biggest flaw though isn’t your actual skill, it’s your ego. The second someone posts a different perspective you go on the offensive. You challenge them to heads up, call them names, etc. You literally act like a child.

For your sake I hope you achieve all you want from this game, but your attitude and lack of humility will probably cause a spiral.

Also, the reason people ask for your screen name is for receipts. Anyone can post a congratulatory email with no name attached to it, means nothing.

broke?

its not variance in the way you think it is. Its just returning to the norm, which is that you are a losing player.

Your hand histories prove you are not good. These are just the facts.

But you just wont listen and keep bulldozing forward.

Anyone congratulating you and encouraging you are just not nice people, they want you in poker because they want losing players to keep playing

GLGL, keep blogging and working on your game!
I would recommend moving down stakes and grind back up while learning key concepts!
99% of people at the start of their poker career were losing players!
