Getting dick slapped in the face by variance every session lately. Shot took 5/10, hit the nut full house and got it in against... quads. again. So many ****ing quads lately it's unreal

Got it in preflop vs AA 4 times today, lost all four (AK blind vs blind, JJ and 1010 shorthanded, and QQ). Got it in with QQ against AK, lost. Besides those 5 buyins I played well and only ended down 1 buyin.

If I just don't get any premiums against aces for 100 hands or so I'd be really happy

$1/$2: 118k hands @ 7.50 bb/100
$2/$5: 19k hands @ 12.78 bb/100
$5/$10: 1,053 hands @ -69.38 bb/100

Thanks man. I started out with 10k, now I'm at ~30k (depending on the current price of btc lol)

I haven't been updating because my laptop died on me a week and a half ago. I got a new one, but it died on me the day after I bought it. So I decided to order a different one online, and it should arrive next week. Lenovo didn't offer overnight shipping or anything faster than the standard free option :/

I hate not being able to play, but it's also been a much needed break. I was getting a little bit burned out, but I'm really excited to get back to playing.

Thanks for the subs everyone. I'll let you know when I'm back on the tables

For the most part, yeah. I play a little on GP as well, but I hate the software. Looking to find a third site so I can add more tables.

Sick thread man, GL! Is it hard to withdraw and deposit money on Bovada and Ignition? I live in Norway so I can play on Pokerstars etc but thinking about playing on those sites since games are so much softer... Whats your thoughts?

Went on a heater the last couple days, although I cooled off tonight and lost a couple buyins at 2/5. Still had a really good week. Put in 12.5k hands, had an 11bb/100 WR at 200nl, and made a solid profit overall.

Drivehud finally has graphs, so here's a graph of my week at 200nl:

Do you download your hands and upload them to drive hud? I am using the trail and I am noticing it will screw up some hands where I lost 3bb but it records me losing a stack.

No, it just catches them live. I haven't had any issues like that - and I tend to pay close attention to my session stats as I play. I would contact their support team and send in a log.

So far in my new database I have 2500 hands in the small blind. Currently have a WR of 17.5 bb/100. Obviously the cards have been good to me so far, but I'm making it my goal to keep my WR positive out of the small blind for as long as possible.
