I had the roll, when I first got there got a lot of stacks donated to me by whales. I really think Im +ev there, ofc theres no way to prove it atm, sample is small.

Also most of my volume there happened during bad hours/days. Ive seen the worst 200z had to offer unlike some regs that move there only during the weekend.

Fair enough. Although the aim is to make money, not to try to impress anyone. Playing at favorable times when there's more fish is the best way to do that. Those regs have the common sense and self awareness to realize that.

I played in those times because those were the only times I could play in my schedule, I'm a part-timer, so can't choose the best hours of the day to play.

That's what they still say.


PS. I think you should try twitch streaming and put your comedic skills to some good use, could have a chance of making some decent money on the side maybe. More than poker at least.

All joking/trolling/hatred aside, this is absolutely ****ing cringeworthy patter.

If you really want cringeworthy take a look at mirages BBV threads from a while ago LOL

lul

'Is poker math overrated?' is also a classic

Played some 100z, finally getting confident again in my game, roll is probably at $3.7k, wont look at results until the end of the month, will try to put as much volume as possible. Also I'll change things a bit here, won't post hands I look good anymore, I'll post only the worst hands I've played in the day.

I will go really hard on myself for making mistakes and will do my best to correct them, so the world will see the worst that I have to offer lol. Please don't go too hard on trolling, but I'm sure some people like mirage will love those.

Only 1 hand so far: In this one I knew someone had a set in there, but I misread the board, thought the Ad was blocked by it and thought "well, with the nut flush I'll have odds vs 2 sets here", so called it somewhat fast, which was super ******ed. Even with AKdd it's close, if one of the guys has a FD it's terrible for us, so the only good scenario would be set vs set vs us. Probably losing 30bb+ on this call, which is like 600 hands of a top 100z reg.

I thought you were doing already. lul.


KTs is a fold pre, and the way the hand played out perfectly demonstrates why. You get totally owned by their calling ranges. Deservedly stacked.

If KTs is a fold pre, you should just come over and play some PLO mate, NLHE dead

Wos goin' on in here

Just trying to educate some garbage regs. Business as usual basically.

Lmao fighting the good fight m8

always squeeze KTs there, dunno what mirage is smokin

defo squeezing it pre but super easy betfold otf

yes indeed pretty clear bet/fold

You really think KT plays well in a squeeze pot OOP? esp vs MP? Going broke with any TP, and even when he got one of the best flops possible he still got busted.

Bad hand number 2

UTG was nitty, so decided to not squeeze TT in there, since it would be annoying to face re-jams a lot with such a good hand. I like OTF/OTT and my river bet. I know the right sizing in theory is 33% in there, but he didn't like to fold much, pretty sure he was snapping all overpairs in there, so went bigger as an exploit. After he min-raises it's gg, I don't know wtf made me call in there, it's never a bluff, specially by that guy.
I've bluff-raised in spots like that for that sizing, but it requires a lot of creativity(and balls), which villain won't have.

Bad hand number 3

Vs fish, spewy turn play, I knew he had a midpair type hand, but don't know if they fold a lot in there, should just have folded turn. OTR I don't think he has enough folds in there vs any sizing.

Btw, ran pretty well today, probably recovered some back, also volume is insane, 3.4k hands! I think I'll start going back to the gym again, it's good to put that volume but gotta have some life balance, also I'm not as tilted as before lol!

@mirage, who said anything about going broke with top pair?, think it's probably +EV to squeeze vs 2.4x , also probably fine to overcall some % depending on BB.

Remember ishter saying something about how insanely profitable squeezing is after reviewing db, so if it's close imo just flick it in.

Ok so your hitting TP and most probably I assume not folding outright, so going another street at least, possibly folding with almost half your stack in the middle? Sounds awful to me. What year did isther say that? It also depends on the hand selection, not using hands that are owned by villains calling ranges. vs MP open I'm just folding.

Yeah, its a very strong move because it uses the cc money as leverage to get more fold equity, because we can profitably use a bigger sizing. Thats why cold calling preflop is a weak play. Also people dont protect their cc range with AA/AK/QQ/JJ, so they could havr a backraising range.

Also I was going to the gym already, but with the recent downswing was crazy to play poker and get the money back lol(sick mental game haha).

Another thing, Ive changed some part of my strat thanks to mzbourg, he gave me a hint by saying some guys in the pool think Im a whale lol. Strat is really cool and I think I finally managed to get some sick edge vs some regs in the pool that were giving me trouble.

I dont play poker to hit top pairs, if all I wanted to do were to hit hands, I would start limping any2 cards to try to hit flops. KT is a semibluff, but sometimes we end up hitting the best hand with our tp and try to get to showdown/valuebet weaker hands.

Also I dont go broke easily with TP in mw 3-bet pots lol. Dont you remember that time I folded KK to a donk jam OTF because I thought the guy had AA always?

He gave you a hint? I have been saying that all year, did you think I was joking?

get to show down? lulz. good luck with that. Your just asking to get owned with that play especially when you have poor fold equity considering your whale image. I prefer putting villains in bad spots rather than myself.

btw lol at your devastating flop raise size with TT. Utterly useless, and of course deservedly owned again.

yes
