Thanks boss!

Short session today as I was asked to do a 2hr presentation at my former uni (gulp). Non-poker related, before anyone asks. Think it went OK, I'm not the world's greatest public speaker, but managed to get through it. Shall be politely declining any future requests though haha.



Hands:

1) Brutality vs one of the biggest sunwalkers in the game



2) Premium FU call vs weak reg



3) Rec




Probably won't play much again this weekend, as have loads on. Good luck to those who do!

In other news, you probably made some money on BTC tonight. Happy ATH!

Fun hhs, mind sharing the reason for xb with AhJx 3BP BBvsBTN on KQhh3x?

glad the presentation went well. GL at the tables!

Indeed, shorting now in the short term. Expecting correction to 4750 or so after the fork.

Cheers fella. Because he had KQ obv

Nah some sort of pop tendency read/player dependant read probably.

Thanks mate, you too!

Played another 300h and won $650 or so after the last graph.

gettin short too early, gl tho!

welcome back

Maybe right by a 100pts or so, but the spreads suck over the weekend so pretty negligible I think.

Thanks boss!

So Swell didn't have quite the impact on XRP price that I was hoping. Guess I'm in for the long hold now. I still have faith in the product and it's applicability, hopefully we see a bump in price after the escrow is secured.

BTC looking bearish. Not dropping at the level I had anticipated, but think I'll hold the short a while longer and get back in with some new buy entries if it drops below $4800.



Graph since my last update, still running good at 200 and getting demolished at 500. I've not been pool selecting 500 very well either, so I'm looking to improve on things there. Fairly sure I'm winning in the games overall though, but we will see.

Nothing else that is particularly interesting. Hopefully people are reading!

Yeap still here and reading

Best of luck, i hope things turn around soon at 500z.

Cheers!

Shipped a bowly MTT on Stars for $2k also, woo!

looking to invest a chunk soon and i heard a good time to buy BTC is coming up? hit me up on skype - i need advice!

grats on mtt bink, yes people are reading

i m not reading fk this

One of the few threads I keep up with so yes reading

Good to know, thanks!

Mostly using Whatsapp these days, as Skype is too much of a distraction, but I'll drop you a PM.

Thanks!

Oh you

Hey, thanks for commenting, that's good to hear

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

Just wanna say, it's much more fun for me to have interaction with people than just a one sided diatribe. So if you wanna know something, or think I effed up a hand then lmk.

I d like to know more of your thoughts on crypto, Obv it's kinda like free poker strat as in u might not wanna give it out free but as a noob I rly appreciate this

Why whats going to happen?.

Buy the dip.

Anything specific you wanna know? I'll continue dropping my thoughts on various Crypto in the thread, but unless you've got questions about specifics then it'll just be whatever is in my head on a given day.

Purdy much, gotta know when the dip is breaking though. That's the hard bit.

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



Another day in the books. Pretty happy that I turned it around, despite playing pretty punty early on in my session. Hopefully I'm able to make the 500z thing stick, as the achievable hourly is so much better. I also find it somewhat fun? or interesting I guess to play, where 200 and below felt a lot like a grind to me.

BTC made a rebound back up to $6k and bounced again. Really, really surprised that there hasn't been a bigger pullback, but I'm still fairly certain it's coming. I hope so anyway, as I want to get some more money into it, but not at this price.

No good hands for today, so that is all.

Telling a newbie to buy the dip is bad advice, unless you are some well researched Cryto savant you will not time it correctly. Just buy a hardware wallet (Trezor) and asap load up as much money you can withstand losing. GL

This doesn't really make sense. You're basically saying it's bad advice to try and buy at a low, but good advice to just load up regardless of the price.

Cheers, you still playing?

Only found this now. Obv subbed gl op

I kind of agree with him. May be wrong, but pretty sure I remember from Uni lots of studies proving that even experts are incapable of systematically predicting short term price movements without inside information. So basically without hindsight it's impossible in developed markets, and very hard in crypto to actually call the dip.

Like for EG the bolded part of this statement, why? Not trying to be a dick, genuinely interested in hearing an argument, as you already know I am a staunch believer in the power of the markets though haha.

Thanks man, good to have you here!

Just answering the second half of this statement here; basically when the last BTC fork happened, you were getting equivalent value of whatever you had in BTC back in BTC Gold tokens (worth roughly 0.07BTC/per token, or $400). Essentially free money for investors riding out the fork. Now, if the price suddenly takes a dive, directly after the fork, a lot of that 'free' money gets eaten up by the price divergence. Therefore I was expecting a lot of the big buyers to dump almost immediately post fork to maximise their gains.

There's another fork into BT2x happening in a few weeks time, so potentially people are holding for that.

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



Played super good today IMO. Was really switched on throughout and battled pretty hard for pots. Booked a nice win too after a pretty swingy start to my session.

Some hands, since I didn't have any yesterday.

1) Blockers tho



2)



3) Reg



4)



5) Yep, OK



7) lol, given this guy soooooo much money



Out tomorrow night with some friends for the boxing and maybe too many drinks, so we shall see what the weekend brings in terms of volume. I expect it'll be slack overall until the new year though, as I have a million and one things on before then.

Glgl

PE worded it better than me but ya in theory you are correct, obviously buying low is optimal. I am just saying that in practice, the short term is incredibly hard to predict and as a result most are better off buying asap rather than waiting for a dip that may or may not happen.

And no i havent played seriously this whole year, i am retired from poker. Traveled through Europe in the summer and now i am hoping my crypto run good continues bc i have a large % of my $$$$ tied into BTC. So its pray4jajaja if it tanks

Ya exactly
