Final table of the 25k guaranteed $109 Super PKO we're player 521. Hilariously we have 1 bounty. Also 10 left in the thousandaire maker. Would have been final table but we just lost AKs<A9os all in pre. Top 8 paid 8th gets $350. Also min cashed the $55 nightly and got 10th in the $82 PKO. Haven't played since Sunday so nice to catch a bit of heat so far.

Just Always Aces

Hero UTG+1 (covers) KK
Villain 1 BTN ($212.75) QQ
Villain 2 BB ($292.45) AA

We open to $6, villain 1 3bets to $20, villain 2 cold 4bets to $66, we fold cause duh he always has aces here if not the other guy has them, and villain 1 calls.

Flop ($135) J98ccx

Villain 2 checks, villain 1 bets $32.50.

Turn ($200) 4x

I don't try to make a habit of folding KK but sometimes it's obvious they have AA and if they don't then whatever.

Lot of big tournaments today on Ignition. $450 PKO main event $109 mini main event. The usual $162 and the $325 high roller. I'm gonna fire as many bullets as it takes. Could be an expensive day today. Tournaments are stupid.

In the money in the $450 main event right now player 423 we got like 3 big blinds.. 2 bullets fired. Nice little 50k overlay so we're happy to min cash, but hoping we catch some heat and make some serious money.

Just lost a 4 way all-in TT<AQ<AQ<AQ in the $325 high roller. Lol. 3 ace-queens and they hit the queen. Also just min cashed the $450 main event KJ<A6 for $875 I thought I won too, flop was AK6 river J didn't realize he hit two pair until the pot was pushed. Damn. He rejammed over my 6bb jam for a nothing bounty of mine.

In the money in the $325 high roller player 341 and the $215 super PKO turbo player 159. Big stack in the $82 PKO player 156. Pretty much every tourney today has a ~20% overlay. Nice.

The most efficient thing you can do is get a job and play poker on the side (Weekends mainly) until you grow enough bankroll to afford to live. Living in your car is just showing that you are lazy and dont want to contribute to society.

Goodluck

also I'm seeing some of the folds you're making and I don't think you understand poker at the level you're playing. You will eventually go broke.

Thanks. I'm living at my grandma's house currently since last summer. I had a job last year working 40+ hours/week driving and operating an earthquake simulator and doing earthquake renovations on houses. Crawling under houses and installing universal foundation plates, framing anchors, and cutting and adding cripple wall to existing shear wall foundations. And then covid hit and my employer cut my pay by 20% which is a valid reason to apply for unemployment. And I don't know if I'm lazy but with the $600/month the federal government was doling out I made more money on unemployment than I would have working. Does that make me lazy? And since then I've been doing pretty good at online poker.

What folds do you think are bad?

We all go broke sometimes buddy =D. Sometimes you gotta risk it for the biscuit!

Spoiler:

I won the monthly milly on Ignition back in January 1st/1866 players for $134k

Also I'm winning at 5bb/100 ev at 200nl. Chance I go broke is basically zero. But thanks for the input nevertheless I like people interacting with the thread.

Hey my guy, I actually met you at Commerce a couple years before I heard about this incredible thread. We played in some 5/5 and you were in a few of my 5/10 shots in 2019. My name is Shane. We talked a few times a couple years ago but fate never seemed to let us have a real moment together. Either way I always thought you had a calm demeanor and kind, understanding eyes.

Sure. I'm not sure how accurate drivehud is in keeping track of things. I had to manually input my first tournament win for some reason. I started using a HUD on Jan 31st of this year for the first time ever. Not sure what took me so long to get one. That was the same day I won the monthly milly for 134k and it didn't register a win at all lol. Maybe it was too many figures for the software? Also sometimes the HUD won't load on a table for some reason so that win/loss won't get registered. I know for a fact that my 1st place in the $125 tournament that I won last month wasn't logged into the HUD because it never loaded onto the table. So I'm not sure how accurate this graph is but it's certainly not 100% accurate. Also it just looks like a straight line because my first entry is +134k and the rest is going to look flat in comparison. And some of the MTTs I played are counted as SNGs for some reason.



This is my cash game graph which I'm embarrassed to share. I've only played ~80k hands since January 31st. Again it's not 100% accurate because drivehud is definitely missing some stuff but it's probably 95% accurate. My bb/100 is 6.33 and EVbb/100 is 5.33.

Very nice, shouldn't be ashamed of that cash graph even though it's low volume, but since you don't only play cash games it's perfectly fine!

Why not switch to other software? Seems pretty shitty
