Keep up the good play. It's all that matters. Short term results (even good ones) don't matter so don't let yesterday get to you.

If you're a solid player who knows the meta you're playing in, knows p/f ranges, and understands ICM (since you'll be closer to the bubble), then late regging into a 10bb stack can be +ev, it's just ovb not as +ev as regging earlier. There was an interesting study done about this subject, posted on one of the subs here, I think the BOL one, recently.

Than fresh fish cooked with little oil? No. Than a frozen breaded fish patty microwaved? Probably about equal. Also if you eat something like 10 or less eggs a week, there's no possibility of it negatively affecting your cholesterol, so it's not like they are unhealthy.

Our boy spent 1/20th of his entire bankroll on two tournaments (I think?) in one day. These are not the +EV spots he should be chasing Hahahaha

Bacon and eggs are healthy. It's low calorie and high in nutrients. Literally the oldest person in the world ate bacon and eggs everyday. That's saying something. Saturated fat raises HDL (the good cholesterol) and makes LDL (the bad cholesterol) larger. Small dense LDL is what causes arterial blockages so increasing the size is actually a good thing.

So what contributes to such amazing longevity? In Jones’ case it might be bacon. According to her niece Lois Judge, Jones still eats four strips of bacon every morning, followed with some eggs. “365 days a year - that’s her meal,”

Trans fat and sugar are to be avoided. If bacon were bad for you I don't think you could live to be a super centenarian eating it every day.

This is the pseudo-est science I've ever seen in my life. There are also obese people who eat bacon every day. How many times a day does the old guy sneeze? Maybe sneezing is the secret to health

The first article I linked had reference to a study in a medical journal. That's not pseudo-science. There may be obese people who eat bacon every day, but I can guarantee it's not the bacon causing weight gain or retention. There's ~40 calories in a slice of bacon and it greatly satiates appetite. It's low calorie and high in nutrients.

Here is the link from the medical study and some quotes.

https://openheart.bmj.com/content/1/1/e000032.full

Quote:
Other human trials, not included in the aforementioned meta-analysis, include the Anti-Coronary Club trial, which showed that more people died (overall (26 vs 6) and due to coronary heart disease (8 vs 0)) when saturated fat was replaced with polyunsatured fat.23 The National Diet Heart Trial, a randomised, double-blind study, also showed a higher number of cardiovascular events (n=4) on a diet that was high in the polyunsaturated(P)/saturated(S) fat ratio (2 : 1), than on a diet high in saturated fat (n=1, P/S=0.4).24 Thus, advice to replace saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats (ie, Ω-6) may increase the risk of coronary heart disease, cardiovascular events, death due to coronary heart disease and overall mortality.
That scientific enough for you bruh? Eat that bacon! Get your saturated fats!

Another study showing an inverse relationship from saturated fat intake and death. Again, linked in the first article I posted.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20685950

And another, again linked in the first article.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20071648

Quote:
A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed that there is no significant evidence for concluding that dietary saturated fat is associated with an increased risk of CHD or CVD. More data are needed to elucidate whether CVD risks are likely to be influenced by the specific nutrients used to replace saturated fat.
And there were even more scientific studies linked in the original article. And anecdotal evidence is evidence. It would be hard to be the oldest living human on the planet doing something that was unhealthy every day. It's not all luck. There are no 110+ year old smokers or drinkers or people eating lots of sugar and transfats. But some of them are eating bacon every day!

Transfat is what you want to avoid, donuts are going to have a lot of that. And sugar. Bacon has zero transfat.

Day 7 start

Made it to my computer just in time to start my session at 8:59am. Had to skip breakfast and morning coffee though, cause too much of a rush, cause slept in.

I had stayed up till after midnight yesterday, watching heaps of YouTube and Netflix, just trying to do non-poker stuff for a bit to clear my head.

So I am a little tired today, but I mostly feel fine and should be able to grind okay today.

My wife woke up at 10:30am to cook me breakfast and make me coffee! I consumed this whilst 7 tabling. I'm feeling much better now and should be able to make more +EV decisions at the poker tables.

Here was a bluff I just pulled:

Hand 20 - Overbet bluff multiway

9-handed, $141 effective with BTN

MP limps $1
BTN raises $4
SB calls $4
Hero calls $4 BB with Ks Jc
MP calls $4

Flop ($16, 4ways) Ac Qd 8s

Checks to BTN
BTN bets $8
Everyone calls $8

Turn ($48, 4ways) Ac Qd 8s Qs

Checks around

River ($48, 4ways) Ac Qd 8s Qs 7c

SB checks
Hero bets $69

Spoiler:
Everyone folds
Hero shows the bluff

I know I'm not supposed to show my cards so often... but I can't help it sometimes. This is what keeps the game entertaining.

Hero 3bets $15 SB with A5cc
Only CO calls $15

Flop ($35) Kc 9s 4c

Hero bets $10
CO raises $40
Hero jams $185

Spoiler:
CO calls $185
CO shows Jc Th (gutshot)
We run it 3 times

Very surprised to see him stack off 200bbs that light...

Hand 22: Randomising my river decisions

9-handed, $326 effective
UTG+1 limps $1
UTG+2 raises $3.50
Hero raises $12
UTG+1 limp-calls $12
UTG+2 folds

Flop ($29) Kh 9h 5h

UTG+1 checks
Hero bets $9
UTG+1 calls $9

Turn ($47) Kh 9h 5h 5c

UTG+1 donks $31.33
Hero calls $31.33

River ($109.66) Kh 9h 5h 5c 6d

UTG+1 checks
Hero bets $44
UTG+1 raises to $176
Hero tank calls $176

I was fairly confident I was beat here, but on the off chance that I was being exploited, I pulled out a random number generator: 1-80 = fold, 81-100 = call. It landed on 92, so I called.

Spoiler:
UTG+1 shows 99 (boat)
UTG+1 scoops a $462 pot

Thanks RNG...

That's not how it works. Especially on the river. You randomize because you are indifferent between two options, meaning your opponent made you indifferent in this spot. I would guess he has a hard time finding anywhere near the right amount of bluffs on this runout in this line. You aren't indifferent here.

Lunch break starting now 1:25-2:25pm.

Made $200 profit for my first 4.5hr session, playing just 7 tables of 100nl, although I felt like I made a few mistakes along the way, and even folded AA pre once by timing out and not paying attention, so I'm going to give myself a C+ grade.

Hopefully the last 2.5 hours can go even better.
