I ran into spots like this vs. Snowie all the time and found it amusing.

I withdrew an additional 8k from my account. My GF and I also paid off about 25% of our cumulative loan debt today as well.

TT horribly played imo

I disagree. He can literally show me his AQ (which he did, kind of) and I'd still call flop with TT due to pot odds/implied odds.

Implied odds.... Just because I wasn't getting immediate pot odds does not make the call bad...

I'll be streaming in about 1 hr (~7PM CST)

We're on!

Im not sure if you're calmly re-trolling me with the simple one liners or if you didnt realize i was being facetious

Either way, well played

-$2500 on stream

lol did not know u were being facetious

I presumed Ava was being facetious, but you obviously have to call on the flop. Villain raises some worse hands there, but he usually gives up with the bluffs on the turn. The barreling range is very nutted though.

Are you still mostly 3-betting (and not flatting much/at all) in position, Broken? I'd be interested to know how that strat works out over a large sample size. (I heard some players used that strat at 500NL, and it can't be too terrible, although I personally prefer flatting with TT-88 in particular).

Railed Brokenstars for hours while I was playing a few tournaments last night (very early hrs my time).

Can confirm the money goes in before the river about once every 1k hands on average, & it when it does he's usually drawing dead...... .... alleviating any doubts over EV irregularities

What I didnt account for is that it seems like he & villains are often 200bb+ deep, which obviously massively decreases the amount of AK vs QQ, shoved flushdraw type scenarios,etc.

Anyway, good stream man. I'll bring you some rungood next time. GG GL

I'm doing a lot of just 3bing atm and overfolding to 4b. Seems OK to me atm, but obviously increases STD DEV.

Hahaha, I ran so poorly . Also, I really think it's variance with regards to EV line.

Mas,

I've recently been looking at ways to avoid the casino on a Monday/Tuesday evening and have been looking at what my options are re online games. I've come to find out that Ignition is actually now offering their games to Australia-based players, which came as a massive shock to me.

I'm going to look to start playing Zone there shortly, but I just wanted to see if you had any tips for someone who's unfamiliar with the software, the game structure/anonymous nature, and general meta of the Zone game.

Obv everything is anonymous, right? So does this mean we nit it up and look to make big hands and value bet like in a live game? I would think not since you seem to do the exact opposite and do quite well. So we should look to be very aggressive red line warriors?

Any tips?

The game doesn't change just because it's anonymous.

I know it's still game of poker. But obviously it makes a pretty big impact in the meta. And how the pool plays in general.

Doubt the ridiculous support staff are ever going to verify my account tho so prob doesn't matter. :')

Well if you do get an account you can play for a living online pretty easily I think.

Update for September:

I was up around 7k at one point and then cashed out $10k... Then insta doomswitch about 20 bi @ 200nl. Lol.

Ouch ... Variance.
Planning to stream anytime soon?

Could stream some tonight. Might not play 200 tho

Playing 200z but might switch to 50z lol, pray for me

Lost about 2.5bi on stream. Unlucky night, couple questionable bluff catches. Ran poorly though.

Caught the stream. Feel like every AK you were iso'ing 7 limpers and whiffing and every AA got walks. Lol

Is limping really that common at $200nl or were the games particularly good tonight?

Games are wayyyyy better on Saturday evenings, but the games are soft in general yeah.

Kind of unsure of how I want to proceed atm. I cashed out $10k and had about a $6500 roll, but now I'm down to $2k ? Probably switching to some 50z/100nl reg for a bit.
