Why are you getting so defensive? Because you know you are infact a losing player? You called Floppy McShove an idiot for giving you advice because you think you are a winning player just having bad luck, newsflash winning players don't have 200 game downswings at $2 sngs

I thought so as well, but its more than 200 games now. This game can be brutal sometimes, and there is nothing you can do. I reduced a number of tables before and it gaved no result.

I am so defensive about your post becouse you come here and ruine my beutifull blog, when you are a loser your self. How do you expect me to react?

Today i am watching videos and making hundreds of hands on sng wiz quiz. I score around 80%, so fu haters. Watching a video from snggrinders now, about mtt sngs. ATM early play theory and i don´t see anything new there.

Hopefully will feel well enough to go back to grinding, and that my doomswitch will end.

here is my score, for you non believers. I still think i can improve abit, so will keep on training

This AINEC. Nobody is insulting you but work on your game before you load up alot of tables. I spent like 2 hours a night reviewing hand histories on sng wizard before I fire up the next day and if I am on a downswing I don't even load games, just review more hands.

I don't see any haters, seems like you just have too much pride to accept some constructive criticism.

It is tough, when you are trying your best and you just fail, and when nothing you do seems to work someone comes here ands post that, or this :

"From the looks of it you are most definitely not a winning player. Blame it on bad luck all you want one day you'll realize."

Posted by a player with 5 post which are losing player in the same games i am playing, really freaks me out + tilt from previuos sessions obv, all this stuff add´s up and makes me be rude and a lil paranoid. I do review my hands with sng wiz, i dont spend 2hrs obv, but i do review the spots that i thought was toughest in my opinion.

-----------------------

Now i decided to concentrate on 18man´s, as mixing them up will make lose only more money in the long run, as icm sugestions are way different from 27 man sngs... I am also viewing a second part of sngrinders video about mid stage play. My early play is not much different from suggested in their first video, only that i may be 3bet abit more with hands like AK, which TigerBalm sugest is not profitable to do in early stages, and i also should be calling more in pos with mid pairs, and maybe even limping more marginal hands with decent post flop value, like suited conectors, big conectors, and small pocket pairs.

My bigest loses so far was in mid stages, so i need to concentrate on improving that. Will see a video and try to readjust my play. I am very satisfied with that material as it is very explainatory and lets you understand very well most important concepts of those games.

I also think i was having some problems with shoving into limped pots, so have been working on that, still need even though the mistakes i make are very marginal ev spots :

Starting to grind again, after viewing few videos, reding articles and hand posting and reviewing my game obv all day long.
As i ow. around 80$ in makeup now, i will have to run this stake up to 50$-150$, will start with few 2.25 18 mans, and move down in case my bad run continues. Also will follow advice from above, and will reduce a number of tables to 6, atleast for now.

As i will be 6 tabling, i will probably be posting my hands in stt forum, where i had most doubt.


Wish me luck .

Ok, so i have played several 18 man turbos, like 30 or bit more and keeped losing. So i went down in stakes, and played 1.2$ non turbos. Have played around 14 games and made small profit. Those was sick, on one sng we got to the bubble with blinds 80/160. But basicly, it is the same level as 2.25 turbos, same idiots making same idiotic plays, but the diffence here is that blinds go up so much slower, and idiots basicly eliminates them selfs. I am sorry, i am really tired atm. Will update later, havnt finishsed playing yet, but i predict that br will be somewhere around 35$.

Will update tomorow, with more accurate stats.


ok so, br is 30$ finished 14sngs in 6$ profit. Going out now to get drunk and laid hopefully. Will keep grinding those tomorow, looks like easy money.

Seriously, I got a chance to read over this thread and it's fooking hilarious. You're like a young Karl Pilkington on Crack, fair play to you for keeping things humorous.

If you're still running badly in the next couple of weeks then you can send me a pm if you like and we'll have a look at some of your HHs and try and figure out what's going wrong.

Other then that keep up the good work. Got me laughing anyway.

I have been playing micros for my whole poker life and more or less crushing the micro stakes and allthough I agree your sample isnt large the logic you are using here basicly makes it impossible for you to be actually crushing. You could be a winning player but changing this attitude could make you heaps better. A popular frase from one of the MTTc MODs I believe is 'if you aint getting it bad you aint getting it in enough'. Thats why SNGWiz their ranges will sometimes be very loose, it has a reason AND its profitable, no matter how you run. Good luck!

So after another couple of days roller coastering in micros i finally had a winning session WoooT ! I had to go down to 1.2 9 man, becouse other wise i would be broke by now. Also after going out and spending some time with my mate i camed back decently high and decided to test my new micro limit theory (lol).

Basic idea was to play loser mid and late stages and try to play a bubble as hard as i can, but after 14 badbeats i tilted around 14 buyins away. So things didnt got much better.

Since i switched to 9man turbos to reduce a variance, i have played 2 sessions. When i started i had 15$ in my roll, and had enough to cover 13 buy ins, bought in full and started to grind. Thinks wasnt going very well, still getting more than a fair share of beats in most needed spots, and got bubbled in one sng with AA vs 44 vs TT. TT was shortest stack, 44 had me covered. After safe flop turn camed 4, and river 10obv. So i was prety tilted.

Even thought i almost havn´t tilted since i started to grind, but now i am starting to feel dizzy in some spots and yesterday i got cracked for the first time. Played untill 12pm, and lost a bunch of buyins.

So, after making a stunishing 90c profit from my first sng session I reviewed my hands with sng wiz, just to make sure i still remember how to play 9man´s and it was good enough to crush them. After chatting for a while about ev and stuff like that with my staker i got back my grinder attitude, loaded up 14 tables and crushed the **** out of those donks, and made 10$ profit (80% ROI FTW). I would love it to be an end of a doomswitch, but most likelly i will start running like **** again after session or two, maybe even in my next session.

So my plan is to get 20 buy ins (rakeback included) for 2$ 9 mans atm, have no clue of how long it may take and if i will be able to pull it off as i have been prety depressed latelly.

I am not posting any graphs atm, becouse they are not very prety, i might post some if i go above -30$ or so, just to brag about my line going up.

Thank you dude, i am glad you liked it. Hopefully i will not be running bad for next couple of weeks obv, but in case it doesnt cease, i would be def. glad if you could help me out .


Almost forgot about that frase, but the main thing is that it affects you sooo much when you run bad, and you start making tons of mistakes, shoving tighter for ex. as it was in my case. Anyway, i will go to 9man grind now and hopefully will be able to atleast reduce a variance untill i get a rakeback.

Ok, so i have played a couple of session more and both was profitable. Finally i dont get sucked out so ofter, suckout once in a while and win flips weeEEeeee.

Now only thing i need to do is keep running good, dunno if i will keep playing today though, i feel abit exited and this is probably not good for my game, becouse now i will be shoving much loser.

For all those morons that sugested me to reduce a number of tables :

I have been playing 16 tables these past sessions and didnt loaded up more just becouse they dont allow me. Now, since i am using pure mathematical aproach i dont think the number of tables matters and while i am able to click check fold raise button quick enough (10years of gamer exp. Counter-strike and SC) and also make quick decisions based on blind levels pos and hand strenght. I have hud running to identify a type of player I am facing for more accurate decisions, so i don´t think that reducing number of tables could affect a game. Now, while i was running less tables, i was playing loser, i was trying to outplay fish, thin value bets where i faced thin value checkraise with nuts on the river alot and stuff like that. So, number of tables is irrelevant specially in micro limits where your game must be str forward, other wise you will get pwned by fish while you are trying to get him off his 22 on AK10J board.


Bankroll : $36.35. Made decent profit out of last sessions.
Goal : 150$ ATM

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

LOL :

Played 12 more games :

BR : $43.55

Could this mean my doomswitch is over ? weeee

Yes that's it. Bring it on back. You might be more suited to 9mans I think.

Yeah, could be. But i was running really bad, couldn´t win a single flip and was getting sucked out way to often in most needed spots.

-----------------------------------------------------


Played around 50 games today. Lost about 2$ overall, only losing session was the last one. I noticed that i was playing way far from my optimal or atleast decent game and all due to a fish that started to teach how to play poker. "Why are you going all in, you fish. Don´t you know how to raise", so he was on me for about 10 minutes which was enough to tilt me. Made 3 or 4 bad calls on the bubble, which i wouldnt make under any other circumstances and finished few $ down overall.

Now i will have a brake, watch a movie or 2, maybe sleep abit and go back to grind later.

BR: $39.35

gl man... we have to beat the hard times, remember br management... trust me lol.

Thank you, i am trying my best :-).


Ok, so i have played alot of games today, but basicly finished brake even :

BR : $51.25

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have been running good overall, and todays small profit is due to poor rest i had day before, like 5 hrs of sleep. Even though i played around 70 games, i was having long brakes between sessions, as i was finding it hard to concentrate. Ok, so doing prety decently atm.


Also that bg1 started his challange today and it seems that i am the only one who supports him . I feel really sorry for that guy and i dont understand why everyone hates him. He just has ul life and needs some seriuos help and love.
While i can help him, by organizing his tables or making some advices while he play, i can´t give him love obv. But he has enough love in his thread now, as one of the haters started to post porn pics with a gimmic account .

update : 20 games more, $56.15




Yesterdays Graph :




Today it was abit more swingy, no steady winnings. But still happy with my performance over all, finally i can go back to normal grind after that horrible doomswitch. Not happy with rake payed in this limit, it is $1.2 and i always thought that this is close to unbeatable (atleast when it was '.25$), but probably the ammount of fish in these games compensates it. Need 14$ more, and i am moving up.

Probably will not grind anymore today, will rail blackgerbil1 for a while and give him some confidence hopefully.

So here we go, i am 10$ short from moving up, and hopefully will do so in a couple of sessions :



These are my overall stats and filtered stats. Sick downswing itt

wooot, 17$ downsing

fu FT aihf0paiuhdtñinhsc0guasibñlwnr0, WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU RNG ****ING PIECE OF ****

Relax, the 9mans are your baby. Howard Ledderer will not win this **%*. Rock N Roll.

So after i lost few buy ins, i decided to take a break and review my hh's. Toal fail from my part, missplayed in so many spots. Evevn though i started well today, and my second session was decent even though i got a ton of beats there was no major bad play detected. But when i started look up my 3rd session, where i donked 10bi's boy that was nasty. Probably after badbeats i tooked in first 5 or 6 games where i got sucked out i was tilting hard, which lead me to shove and call way lighter than i should. My last game i was so frustrated that i started to shove any 2 cards 5 players left or so and donked my way to the win.

So after that i decided that i need 24hrs to have a rest, and review all my hands and read some strat on 2+2 (trolling in bbv included).

Br : 41$, basicly brake even from yesterday. Be back to grind tomorow and hopefully will crush donkus maximus.

This is so insane and depressing, how for **** sake i can´t win there ? It is purelly ****ing imposible. How cant i beat donks who limp shove J10o ? Over and over again, hand after hand i get ****ed up ... Hope that ****ing scumbag that runs full tilt dies somewhere in the middle of the desert w/o watter and with 3 camels jamming him in the but. Why, for **** sake. These ****ing piece of **** noob ****s have no ****ing clue of what and why they are doing one or another thing, but it just wont happen. A ****er snap calls my shove with 98o and maked a ****ing str flsh, or limp calling shoves with A2 also is good when you flop wheels, also i like when they call my flop shoves with A ****ing 2 no draw no pair and hits their ****ing 3 outer. This is driving me crazy, please make this **** stop.

Less tilt, keep playing and you'll win eventually as long as you're playing winning poker!
