Hey guys, i am new and i was just trying to see how to post a hand. this is just an experiment

I Try to post the graphs with gyazo, but only appears the link and not the image, if you anyone could give a tip i would be thankfull

today's session was hot, sunday fishes

I just played a mini mini mini session. I am back in some hours



Here some hands:

is this always and always a value bet or a check raise could work better here?



everything ok with my move, i guess, right?



i guess this is never a bluff catch with this sizing, my call is horrible i guess...

hello people!

ohh wait... there's no people LOL

todays results:



some hands:








In this hand i got confused, should i continuing betting or induce bluffs? all the draws missed... your opinion guys

i was playing but i had to stop becuse i remember it's champions league day come on Besiktas, crush my rivals benfica





I almost fold here...



VS fish

Boa sorte

Obrigado bro
tens algum thread ou andas só aqui a observar?

No thread and no poker. Just lurking. Might play a bit once Pokerstars returns. Probably not this year lol.

today's it was a sick session, i guess i tilted a little bit at the end. ohh nooo, i am a calling station



some interesting hands :

VS reg LOL


this was huge!


what a sick trap :\


huge cooler


semi bluff went wrong


this hand.. i still think i play correctly. do you think i should had be more agressive?

Small session before i watch the love of my life, SPORTING CP agains Real Madrid in Bernabeu, the comeback of Ronaldo to his first home . Hope not loose for many goals LOL




Against a tilted reg. should i just call and let him bluff shove turn?


this hand made me sick, i guess i play bad and the villain got so many luck, that float on the flop... check raise turn?

It's done for today i am still crazy about the game R.Madrid- Sporting... we were so close to the dream, unreal, sick.

here's today graph :



Not many interesting hands at night

Tks to this reg to save me money

AHAHAHA, i still alone here, meeee. i don't care, i will keep this thread

Resume of the 1st half of the month:

subbed

tks mate

today it was a nightmare, jesus christ!
But i don0t think i play bad.... that's the game! bahhhhh




VS maniac


VS 88/56 LOl

I think you're getting a little too committed to overpairs, I think AA is an obvious fold there, JJ a little less so but on a KQJ flop there are lots of penultimate times that connect for two pair or better than absolutely dominate AA, at best you're looking at a spot where they can still outdraw you even if they only hold a single pair there which is pretty unlikely.

I know, on the AA the guy was a maniac, that's i just flat the 4bet with AA, he would play like that no matter the board i guess. on JJ i was playing against a biggest fish 88/56. but yeah, i could wait for better spots...

Soo, this is a really really sad update last 2 days were... no words.
It's funny, because i don't think i play so bad but it's the game, in the begginning of the month i was runnig hot and now...
Next week i will move down to NL10, probably i will get 100$ bonus and stard from there. 20 buy ins in 2 days is sick



some hands and all of them against fishes/whales.... weel maybe the fish it's me LOL

Some of these are coolers but I think others are pretty leaky. You tend to treat bottom set and overpairs like the nuts. The 66 vs 88 is especially bad because he'll only call there with a better set or flush - nobody is calling there unless they beat your hand. Same with when you got outflushed.

You're putting in bets that only stronger hands than your own could possibly call and not just that, they then jam back at you and you don't take a moment to look at all the cards they could have held to this point that absolutely crush your hand.

I don't see you checking back for pot control nor simply calling. It seems like you are in a rush to put chips in the middle faster than the other guy. I'd check back more often, especially with wet boards and when your only holding is an overpair or bottom set when flushes and straights are a plenty.

I'd slow down a little and turn these penultimate hands from nut catchers into bluff catchers - I know sample size is small but this kind of aggression on these boards will only lead to getting called with better hands than your own.

Just my two cents from another grinder.

An example of this just happened but in my favor, I wasn't playing you was I?

JK he obviously played it very poorly but had he just checked river he wouldn't have lost about 20 big blinds less.

Here with very wet board I had to exchange hand from premium to bluff catcher, he'd have folded had I bet and I would have folded if he reraised any bet so I just had to check and call his action hoping he didn't have my set cracked and since he'd been actively going after me since I'm a lag I felt confident he'd push hard without a better hand.
