That aint me...

Thats David (Foster) Wallace, my dears

I will post more of his quote, within my next posts. Whenever it fits...

Having read all his bioks, "Infinite Jest" above all of them, not only helped me to get sober twice, but also enriched me as a person more than anything i witnessed in real life, and its not even close.

He hung himself before being 50yo, and it made menearly as saf as when my grandpa died

If you didnt read Infinite Jest yet, u missed Out big time. Never had a better book in my life, and its not even close.
Close to tears when thinking about him as a person, not just an author, atm...

I feel like doing a new, and then-final-forever thread, after SCOOP. Somewhat well typed out and introdeuced etc....

I hate plans and goals - but i really Love writing, no matter if german or english - most do with the hoes, but if id only put the focus on my day by day performance, i'll surely get to 50 push-ups, 15 chin ups, and a 16.7% ROI over the usual suspects of the weekly schedule, with its tiny field-sizes. Even without SCOOP, i invest €10k a month, which also gains 530€ taxes for my state of Germany...never pay out, anyway... Money just keeping score

Also no need for alcohol or medication, when being honest (days off are days off, tho)

Those other winning grinders in my games are like ~+1200$ a month with zero swings...

I think i could do monthly +$1.5k with... slightly bigger swings, maybe... (Stfu about mental game, you ignorant projecting narcisstic idiots, u all Just projecting, and i am the real deal, asnz you should have known be4, yoa...)

Currently saving up for 5 bullets for 2/5 PLO live, but my online bankroll on PS will most likely never get paid out, except when i get into unexpected Problems, somehow
Aint No fun in Bahamas, without some big titty mama.s...

/Thread

You said that Stud Hi requires more reading skills that any other game, why is that?

Well, other than in Stud8 or Razz, its not enough to only remember the cards from Ace to 8 or 9.
You really should be able to remember all doorcards, as well as all dead cards from later streets, if its a multiway pot where someone folded on 4th or 5th street.
And its also very helpfull to remember if any of the suits are very dead, or very live, to adjust your betting, in case of someone likely drawing to a flush. 4 cards to a flush on 4th street is an extremly strong hand, if your suit is live.

And as one example, you need to read players tendencies and frequencies regarding opening the highest doorcard from different positions.
Some complete any Ace door stupidly, but not Kings or lower, some do it with all highest doorcards, and a few nits never complete, if they dont have a big hand.

And thats just a tiny bit of what reading players in Stud Hi means. Cant write a book here, tho, lol.



Busted Low and Medium Stud Hi events vs some droolers, but the sickest sheet was when i got dealt 4A-A in an 11$ to 1050$ with 11 left and two seats as prizepool (2100$, with just 690$ in buy-ins...). I completed utg, and all folded until the bring-in with a 4 door card raised me.
I ofc reraised to not let him draw to a possible live spade draw, or the somewhat live str8 or even str8flush, but he capped it (4th and last bet on each street)...
We also capped it when he caught an offsuit 9 on 4th, but i already had a very bad feeling before calling the last bet, before we were all-in... Ofc he had rolled up 44-4 and i bricked out...
I dont wanna do the math properly, but im fairly certain that the chance for that was way below 0.1%, for him to have that, with me blocking a 4.

Second in 55$ daily 8game, after 1:7 chip disadvantage heads up, and then having a 8:1 chiplead, just to lose it all again...



I stopped alcohol at home for good now, not only until SCOOP ends. Will be extremely important soon, because:

I'll make a new thread after SCOOP, when i will have lifted my 11$ buy-in limit, and also play all the 22$-55$ PLO Hi and Mixed games directly.
Depends on my roll after SCOOP, if i only play satellites to 82$ weekly horse and all the 109$ events, or also play them directly from the start.
Maybe even fire the 33$ to 530$ PLO satellites at last minute of late reg, if the overlay is huge...

Likely using a at least 50 buy-ins bankroll management for the most expensive MTTs, without firing any re-entries after 30 minutes of play in knockouts, and max an hour in vanilla MTTs.

That'll make the time after SCOOP very enjoyable.
Cant wait to play 22$ PLO KOmania, 22$ daily stable Mixed Games, and the 55$ 8game and PLO KOmania directly... and especially the 16.50$ Stud8 and Hot PLO KOmania, which are great day-savers, and will replace nearly all the stupid NLO8 (and PLO8) turbos and hypers at the end of my sessions.

I didnt wanna miss any more 22-109$ SCOOP Events of my choice, and already got my 11$ limit for MTTs lifted.

Somehow, Pokerstars was so kind that they kept my 2$ max buy-in for cash. No chance for me to lose there, as long as i dont ask them to lift my cash limits, too.
They prefer me not going busto, i guess, hahaha.

I installed a new healthy 3-figure daily stop loss to stay somewhat safe.



Directly played 55$ NL 2-7 SD, and got into 530$ Event with 20bb, too, but busted both. Those 5,50$ satellites to 530$s are really soft, and have big overlays.

Lost T7 pat low aipf vs a one card draw 3way for above average stack with 18 left in the 530$...

But i made 4th in 11$ PLO KOmania for 85+78$.


And i got into the 530$ PLO super tuesday.

Played really well, after losing nearly 2/3rd of my stack early, when besstishngry (highroller) floated his gutter plus bdfd vs 80% flop, hit his flushdraw on the turn, and called pot there, then hit his somewhat hidden str8, and got me to stupidly call river (K952T board).

Got ITM as 4th of 5 cause besstishngry spazzed hard preflop and got lucky by busting another deep stack, whose 4bet he called with JT75ds, after throwing fireworks and tissues, lol.

Then I open JT96ds from high jack with 22bb, and call laggy bigblind's 3bet...

T5Tdd flop for flopped trips for me, and i pot and call few more vs naked triple suited nutflushdraw which hits turn, and i dont boat up... 72%er for second in chips...

Could easily have won 3k, instead of just close to 800$, but whatever...

Now have cashed three of four 530$ weekly PLOs. Not too shabby


Working on new and final Blog atm, and will post it in a few hours, or tomorrow.
