Quite fun that you say that bc i reached a coaching for profit agreement w wooolllldogg like a week ago. Instantly started running better as well and oreddi learned alot (like complaining in chat how good another player runs and how bad i run for instance). Maybe our 3 teamviewer sessions made a bit an impression on him who knows
haha, so much between you two!

Another grim day. I'm just losing all the biggest all ins at my highest stakes at the moment. I'd say for the most part it's been out of my control, and i feel im maintaining a high level of play.
Going to a pottery class tomorrow that i bought my gf for her birthday. Actually looking forward to it a lot!
Month is closing in on -5k so hopefully i can turn start to turn things around. What i have learnt from many downswings, pushing it will only result in losing more so i'm just gunna keep playing as well as i know i can and wait for it to pass. I'll ofc move down if i lose another 5-10k but i'll cross that bridge if i come to it. Still only a 10bi downswing kinda puts things in perspective!

Had a great day today both on and off the tables. The pottery was so so good, using a throwing wheel like the gif above to make various sized pots or bowls. It was a class of 5 and my gf and i bossed the class Will be able to collect the finished results in a few weeks!
The games were also great tonight and i had a really solid day
I Assume since we are poker players and devote loads on time in front of a pc neglecting our gfs/wifes , we need to do things to make our girl happy on our free time. Not sure if you went to pottery class due to the reasons stated but a smart man would do that.
Its tough for us to find a girl that is understanding as about poker ,so when we do we realy should been trying to keep her as happy as we can.
That ubergay pottery class must be teh final step b4 teh bells are ringing! Congratz man!
hahaha vwp

Had a very busy couple days and was really pumped to grind. Unfortunately that was short lived as i went back to getting ruined every pot. I felt i played about B+ game overall. Had a few really good regs laying into me hard at 600 and 1k which was really difficult to adjust to. Have barely played 200nl so obviously the variance and monetary swings will naturally be higher.
Preflop: Hero is SB with K J
3 folds, BTN raises to $9, Hero calls $7, BB calls $5
Flop: ($27) K J 7 (3 players)
Hero checks, BB checks, BTN bets $20, Hero raises to $64, BB folds, BTN raises to $134, Hero raises to $466.16 and is all-in, BTN calls $322.54 and is all-in
Turn: ($940.08) 6 (2 players, 2 are all-in) River: ($940.08) T (2 players, 2 are all-in)
Spoiler:
Results: $940.08 pot ($3.00 rake)
Final Board: K J 7 6 T
BB mucked and lost (-$9 net)
BTN showed A 8 and won $937.08 ($471.54 net)
Hero showed K J and lost (-$465.54 net)
River: ($300.42) 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $250.79 and is all-in,
Back in the hole for the month. I felt myself get really frustrated tonight so wanna keep a close eye on that when playing tomorrow. If i catch myself getting angry at myself or hands i'm going to force myself to quit for a few minutes to clear my head. Also going to play no more than 9 tables all day. Got a ton of hands i wanna review tomorrow too.
I feel QQ would probably be better in ev when you bet twice(like smaller sizing considering the trend these days) or check flop and go from there.
as played, we block AQ and he certainly can jam all of his Ax, with him having limited combo of A2/A5s(obv quads) when we don't block any hearts, think we could find a call at some frequencies that is less than 50%. Again it's a spot that we shouldn't expect reg to be over bluffing or value shoving super thin.

thanks for your thoughts mate. As you've stated, there are kinda arguments for both calling and folding. I do think that considering a turn bet would have some merit too. Hope to look at this in more detail tomorrow!

Happy to have followed my aims for the day and play less tables and taking a break if i became frustrated.
This was vs a reg with little history. Thoughts would be really helpful - flop sizing, what to do vs the raise and turn play please!
Horribly injured myself tonight playing football. Pulled my groin soooo badly and i can barely walk now. Really hope it heals for next weeks game as it's an important match. We're 2/2 wins this month which is good!
who does?! folding vs fish loses way more money than calling 100% vs them

The main merit is to protect our hand vs draws and to also prevent exactly what happened from happening! I ended up calling the river and got shown AJcc unsurprisingly

Had a great day at the tables today and my monitor arrived to complete my setup. Big thanks to those who helped with the monitor. This samsung 4k one is sooooo good, the resolution is insane and i can tile like 20 games with no overlap
vs reg. haven't not been shown the nuts here in a while.
