Sup 2+2.
Had a great session last night when all the 15VPIP nits were gone to bed. Sometimes it pays to be in front of my computer all the time.
BANKROLL: 882$
Here comes the week end. And I will only be playing a ton. I hope by the end of the week end I will be back at 1K. Respectful amount to have online. As I'm sure people I play dont have that much. So they are pretty much ''always'' shot taking. Having 30bi to play a stakes. you so easily lose 30% of what you have. and if you end up winning 15bi. you take a shot to lose it all in one hour. Lol that dont make very much sens to me. Than your confidence is low. you dont x/raise very much boards now. You seem to always hit in the nuts when value betting, ''people at the micros never bluff''. The bad mental habits start to settle in. 1 week later. you bust your roll after loosing 3 AI preflop.
I will call that the russian-friend cycle. As I said before Its ONE OF THE BIGGEST MICRO KILLER.
Being consistent is my answer to that problem. Building up the skills of being self-aware of the quality of my plays.
I have seen debate a lot around here. About the right BRM strat.
I believe you can have a aggressive strat only if you ''understand'' variance. I've been a long time in the game. And I just start to understand it and accept it.
If you lose 25% of what you spent months building up. In one night. Could you just take a shower have a good meal. Come back and play as 85% as good as you did before loosing it?
My trigger to tilt: My bluff being snap on the river.
My trigger to auto pilot: Very tight games. (bad day construction, hungry, tired, etc.)
It all comes back to having a solid mental game. If you think you dont tilt, than you probably tilt even harder than me who sometimes snap quit the games after a large mistake.
enough of that lets have fun:
]INTRODUCING, giving way to much away for free on a forum, THE POWER RANKING OF THE DAY!
hmmm, let's see who is playing today on the leader board.
1.TreshkaPiva.¸
That guys looks bot as hard as you can look like one. Very tight raise 2 pair plus and sets on turn. fold a lot to steal. your classic leaderboard regs. 3B probably very tight with a linear range all around? not sure. But I feel like these Russian guys have not yet learned the concept of polarisation? (lol)
2.HI_Jacker1.
I respect that guy styles, it maybe jut the hands we played against each other. But I have seen bluffs in some creative lines. I believe he is one of the rare 8bb/100 winner out there.
3. Anonim72
Dont remember that guy.
4.eloelo320.
I played a lot against him very tight player, bum hunter who jumps in stake a lot to hit and run the fish. I dont remember to much about the quality of his play. But I think he has a VPIP of around 15. To tight for a living as would say Rounders.
5. GRAYA.
Let's finish with that guy. I played A TON against him. Overall I think is more of a 4-5bb winner. Not that much 3Beting, that what makes a big diff between the tier of winner. But he is a grinder not doubt. Can play a ton of table at once. And your not happy to see him at your table thats is for sure.
HONORY MENTION: RedStar_O, The guy was playing all the tables for a week. tough guy, but he is now playing lower. press F for respects.
