I have no idea mate!

Came home last night: Throwing in the towel for the day.

June so far:





Going to start off posting hands as well:

Hand 1:

Just hate this spot, I could and should fold river I think. Could possibly fold or 4bet turn it into a bluff vs this villain who never ships worse I think.

I don't really know what's high and low volume. I'm sticking to quality over quantity :-)

Having 3bb/100 over 100k hands will be always better than having 5bb/100 over 30k hands :P hourly rate is what its all about

Well yes, but it's very hard to improve playing too much volume. Thats just my thoughts. Hence winning more playing more, I think every individual has to find their own sweet spot / balance.

Going to watch french open tomorrow, and attend my fathers birthday. Going to play from 20-02.00 Might play some donkaments :-)

Ok back! I am dissapointed in my self. Tried to play 9 ordinary and 2 zoom which was way too much and I lost like 11-12 BI yesterday. Oops, even worse cause I was up a decent amount at one point of time. However there are positives here.

4 tabling zoom is the max I can do or 6-8 Normal tables with no zooms.

The amount of clowns you'll find at zoom is absurd, haven't seen a fish pool like this ever.

So far June hasn't been the best, but atleast I'm still in positive territory after such a hit I took yesterday which is a good thing!

Anyone tried tiltbreaker?



I don't really care about VPPS but Im at like 7500-8k ish and have around 21k fpps. Probably just trying to save them for $1600 or which is the best value.
06-12-2013 , 09:12 AM
I know, in the last few days zoom has been insanely fishy.

And you can trial tilt breaker for 15days. Its incredibly tilting though.
06-12-2013 , 09:51 AM
tiltbreaker = awesome, but very tilting if you hit the limit vs a huge donk HU for instance (i nearly smashed my screen). very good program though *recommended*
06-12-2013 , 06:38 PM
What goes down must go up.


I'm in love with zoom zoom, cause it's just so fishy, I'm speechless.

Ok.


Too much sun, we basically had the best summer since the 70's or something in Norway. So that lead me to play lol low-volume. However Im sort of ashamed by that, but there isn't really grind environment when mom is home. She can't be quiet for more than 5 minutes and theres always some ******ed stuff..

Another problem is the location, I have no A/C and it becomes very hot even with a fan, which makes it sort of difficult to grind any more than an 1h per sessh.

Going to go out the maximum of one day per week.

Start to work-out 3-4 days per week.

Play AVG: 3H per day.

Improve study habits.

I have decided to live alone from mid sept-june, with the possibility to spend the summer at the same place if I'd like to grind alone next summer.

On to the good news.

Going to Barcelona on Monday. Def play €500 Deep EPT Side-Event, its on the 6th.

Gonna find some savers. Tomorrow!

I might make a 4 tabling vid if anyone would be interrested to review hands (?). I had to cash out a little chunk and im a bit rusty so grinding out the NL50 for a few more thousands hands.

Regs are so wierd there.

LOL?

I was sure he checked back a weak T or something, but never a flush. I had the impression that he was a mediocre reg, well I changed that note-label loll. I don't overbet rivers that much, but figured he could have something and was scared.

People don't have fold buttons on 50, at all.

Run good, but what the hell.

That being said I know for a fact that I have won like the last 9/10 flips with AK vs PPs and AQ.




Just 50 NL.

I played a lol short session now, for 15 mins. Stopped due to problems with winners tilt before.

Also I am Alpha Testing the new PokerStars V. 7.

Most changes to the lobby, but what can I say besides it is awesome!


Small Teaser:



I had a god day, ending it now to play some Dota2 Games.

Also my Bell Curve over last 100k hands is somewhat sad.

The question is: How can I find the equilibrium to call here vs a range of two-pairs, JJ+, Sets, (very few FDs)

So back from Barcelona.

Spent a week there approx. planned on playing side-events or cashgames. Turned out the queue for the cash-games was hours long so I skipped that. Especially cause I didn't want to play between 10-15 in the day time.

I met a few Norwegian HS Grinders who seems to be willingly to share strategy tips even though they are playing way higher, its still the same game.


I will give $10 to the first who can guess who I am with on this picture:
If you guess both you'll get $25.

A hint: Both played the EPT Main-Event, one of them played both EPT ME and Estrella.







I binked a MTT this weekend for like $580 (5rebuy - 15 mins blinds. I like the 15 min blind structure cause it favors cashplayers slightly more I think).

Other than that I had a decent day today. Up in the likelihood of 10 buy ins.

I ran good. Let's put it that way. Pairs hold vs AK and AK binks vs pairs.

I had to move down to 50 NL again, cause I haven't recieved my student loan and Im to nitty to pay for my apartment with my real bankroll. So I cashed out $5.000 and payed 4-5 months + deposit.

Will probably deposit 5k again when I get my student loan. I am working on my HU and 3-handed play. (A player that I absolutely demolished MD zu was not to happy in chat today and asked if I could **** myself.

One of the hands I played vs him was sort of standard for my part, but for his behalf I dont think I can say the same.

He got pretty fed up cause of this hand which I think I missplayed by not betting 75% on the river. He never bluff there ever I think and he should be inclined to hero call at least some portion of the time.
