9500 at break. Going back at 400/800. Never been so card dead in my life. This is why we stick to online...

Busto. Obv the super whale stacked me 2nd hand back. Limp called 11bb with JQ vs my 55.

Woooorst tournament ever!
Wooooorst live cash game ever!

All the best in 2014 Ben

lolol that cash game was the nut worst. Worth watching a live fight though!

Thank you mate, you too!

the live fight wasnt smb & mayo teaming up on somebody right?

haha wp. they're at PCA at the moment too!

Todays results:

Felt i played a ton better after having comments from thefunbegins in this thread. Took some time to talk over spots with people and adjust my play. My stats have noticeably changed with regard to vpip/pfr/3bet. Hopefully i'll keep it up.

Graph:



really really sticky pot. desperately wanted to fold the turn too and fortunately got there. I think there is definitely a good argument to calling turn too



Really unsure of what the best play is in this spot vs a short stacker with a 14% flop raise. Any thoughts would be really helpful.



funny pot vs a massive whale. Should definitely be going smaller on the turn though.



bad beat vs a 54/24/6.5



Desperately wanted to fold this hand vs a passive fish...



vs a losing regular. was seriously tilted by this hand



Month is at ~-500, Plenty of time to turn it around. glgl

Good luck Ben. I can't give you much technical advice as you're a better player than I am, but I would say just keep working on your game every day, stop giving any significance to short term results, and if a reg playing a hand badly and hitting a FD seriously tilts you then spend time working on your mental game too.

Thanks for this mate, definitely not a better player though. The FD hand was tilting, but didn't actually end up tilting me if you see what i mean!

Ran and played a lot better today, had a few really big fish too which helped a ton.

This was vs the biggest whale i've seen in months:



vs regular:



another fish:



month is at +1200. Glad to be upswinging again! gl guys

What % of your hands do you play at each stake?

Lost our football match 6-2 today, mainly due to missing our best player (smb!) We're in the 'premiership' now which is the top 5 teams of the 10 team league so we'll play each team once and there will be a semi final and final. Can't really afford to lose anymore games! Will keep updated on that!

Around 2:1, 100nl being my main stake. Although i am getting destroyed at 100 so far this month and crushing nl200...

is there anything smb cannot do well

idk mb cheat on stars w/o being caught?
that's not serious btw, love smb (gay crew and whatnot)

Having met him I don't like he'd be very good at basketball, high jump or a good central defender.

I can confirm that he doesn't do things that he isn't the best at. Notably swimming and being alone in the dark - both of which you will not catch smb doing

haha very good. Are you UK yourself? Might be room for another!

lolol agree!

Results

My month has finally taken a good turn and am winning a decent amount over the past few days. It seems that our new guest TonnaMunz who's staying for a couple weeks has brought some run good back from the PCA!



I'm sure we'll still be grinding a decent amount, but I'll be showing him around London and doing a ton of stuff. Will make sure i keep this updated though!

hahaha smit being bitter, you get used to that. He even slags you off behind your back to the worst live pros around...

Sweet, gimme a text when you decide to come



Thanks man, run good is coming!!

jaja yes sir join us

Why are you wearing such a weird shirt Tonna?

Been busy doing things the past couple of days but have managed to get in 3 or 4 1k hand sessions in. Running pretty good and feel that i'm playing way more solid too.

Had some really interesting hands too which are below:

vs a 57/32 whale:



vs a 53/13 fish with 100% agg freq on all streets (30 hands). Maybe folding river would be optimal?



Really sick hand vs a standard tag reg:



vs a good winning reg. Really not sure how often i'm winning when i call the river and whether or not there is a good argument to checking back the river anyway:



This was a really weird hand and tbh i think I've spewed off horribly. At the time i thought his range was pretty weighted towards AK and felt he would fold this nearly always, but upon review he certainly has QQQ and KKK in his range. The fish that i 3b was blowing up hard so i still think i can rep 2pairs pretty well.



inducing whales! Both the limper and raiser were 50vpip.



Month is looking quite good now too:
