So tonight I ended up hitting a straight flush and flopping quad aces, but it still turned out to be one of my worst nights ever. Found out I suck in 3 bet pots. I should not have been playing lag again against other lags. Few of them on each table. Lesson learned I guess. Gonna take forever to win back tonights losses. Roll down to $68. Almost decided to just cashout and give up. Such a moral killer tonight. Wonder if I can bring myself to go back to 1-2 tables and just focus on the fish again.

My graph was looking ok while playing lag, not great, kinda swingy. Then tonight I just murdered it. Shouldnt let one night ruin 6 years worth of previous experience, but man I might need a break.

Climbin out Le hole.

Roll at bout 96. Been dealin with the new Merge hand history replayer that stopped Poker Tracker 3 and 4 from working for a week. So hard for me to play without a hud, cuz I don't know if someone is 3 betting me with AA or a bigger range. PT4 came out with a new beta update. I have been using PT3 this whole time since it's simple, but just found out they are shutting it down at the end of the month. So now gotta figure out how to configure PT4 to how I want it.

Haven't been playing much and prolly missing out on a crucial time where other regs heven't gotten a new hud update yet and could be spewing money, playing blind (had to get this test release for PT4 from their forum).

roll up to 108.27. plenty of fish at 4nl today. taking a break tho to take friend to the mall.

Saw a few fish, but couldn't get many bites. Was on the bad end of 4 coolers in a row. Clawing back. Long breakeven stretch against regs on 10 tables. Always get the brite idea to fire up a lot and hope to shove aces right away and get paid off, which rarely works in reg city.

Made a couple more $'s to get into green for day. Thinking of cashing out $50. Not real happy about the new 3% fee per check. And bank I use to cash them is already charging $5 since they are canadian checks. This would leave me with a current $70+ roll. No escape from the micros in sight. Still might take some shots at 10nl if there are whales.

May end up moving action to another site, since Bovada I hear, gets people checks in 5 days.

Struggle is real. Mega cooler city to start off, then had to play like a savant to get back to green.

Not so long ago, I would have been fine with making rakeback and clearing reload bonus and getting vip points. Not getting any of that anymore. Today proves I can still beat 12 tables of tight regs, but not sure if just making $ only when I do well is worth it. Somehow still have a 29bb winrate over the past 4 days despite my mega swings.

Played another 600 hands. Hard out there. Ran into the LEGEND missy922 at 4nl. Funny seeing someone who has won a million $ playing 4 cent.

Dislike starting off sessions with allin suckouts. Two of them to start things off. Played well after that.

Overall since switching to PT4.

And this is what happens when other regs start adjusting... Combined day and night graph. Night time I was just bleeding. Should have dropped to 2-3 tables immediately and tightened up. But I stayed and hit a hand to at least get me near my peak again, then had a mega cooler. Got a dude allin on flop, me 97.68% to win and he hit runner runner boat.

Made an ok payspot in the 25k $1 frenzy yesterday. Can't believe merge is coughing up 11k in overlay in a dollar tourney. roll at $162+ ($50 of that withdrawal pending). been having heart and girl probs so not playing much.

Lag play didn't go so well. Switched to mostly tag with some surprises and won it back.

those long breakeven stretches tho... did get too excited in spots like when i 3 bet k4s and flop a 4 and c bet and guy calls and a turn a k, then go allin lol. he cant call with worse than a king. that hand count too...

Holy Hell. On the wrong end of coolers to start day, 5 in a row, then finally went on $21 heater at 4nl in only 18 mins. sucks not having rakeback.

finished strong.



Overall since using PT4.

steady climbin. this mostly brings my back to my peak in cash games, from my big $95 downswing I had on my last screen name. let's keep lookin to the sky.

Got up $12 and decided to tilt it off plus another $8 cuz of girl issues. Found out she slept with her ex at the same time she was trying to lead me back on to her. Then she wasn't answering all night. I want to be single, but at the same time this situation hit me sorta hard.

Still having this issue where i will drop right off the bat, then take 1k+ hands to get to even, then i start winning. Do struggle sometimes with my own lag play and tilt. funny how when i got tight as hell, i won 7 buyins quickly. thought that style was dead these days. happy to see it work tho.

Maybe best thing for this is start slow. If you usually play 6 tables, start with 4, then add two as you get into the right mindset? I have same issue where I find myself making questionable(at best) decisions right at the start of a session

Pfff these girls have so much power to us men. Why do they mis-use it all the time? On the other hand. If you don't give a sh*t about it (or act like it, it's hard.. I know), girls cone back begging you to get her back.
