Here is an example pic of 1 irc chatroom. It is rather boring if you have few people since it will be rare that people are on at the same time. But if you have a ton of people joining and leaving every day it is rather fun. I often idle in some ircs during the whole time I have my pc on.


Spoiler:
ohh i see..well only me and one other person are down..so it would be boring..idk if anyone else =/

whats overlap? hahah... i use standard view so iono, overlap is stacking tables??

i only cascade when i play hu sng's and i do 2 tables at most, if i had a bigger monitor i would tile but 15" tiling is horrible so i just use standard, dont see why nobody else uses it

and yea from you tell me you played fastest maps i know your apm sucks , 1v1 is where competitive sc is at bro, in january after the bugs are gone ill get my copy and crush you guys with my 200apm

Good idea. I think the experience you'll gain from playing less tables will make you a better player and will make it much easier for you when you do decide to mass table again. It's easier imo to start out slow then add more tables than it is to just start playing 12+ tables right out the gate. Especially if you just started playing.

Had two short sessions today. Sometimes the family gets in the way and I can't grind like I want to. Won a lil' over 3BIs. Shoulda been 5 but I pretty much gave away 200bbs. One was a misclick. I quit shortly after cuz I couldn't stop thinking about it.

On the bright side. After thinking about that hand and my range and why it was a bad bet to make on the turn (props to villain for making a great read). It helped me make a decision in this hand.

Villain has to have exactly 99 here. And the way the hand played out we're not worried about JJ+. Villain is a 40/25 fish too.

p.s this is the last thing ima say b4 i go to bed... i was watching some of the hu sng's and 50nl hu games and wow talk about soft, the hu sng guys are like full ring nits and the 50nl hu guys just are so horrible... iono i think if i ever get rolled for 50nl i might just work on my hu game cause those games look so juicy

Agreed. HU SNGs are awesome for building a roll. I'm still considering a shift to HU Cash but it depends how HU SNGs continue. I'll just follow around the games my win rate is best at .

Played another short PLO session, guess I can get back to NLH b4 variance kicks in

hey since the new month is coming up i could use some motivation, any of you guys up for doing a really small prop bet like most hands in (month, 2 weeks etc) i'm talking on like $10-$30 or something. probably only for NL people

**I dont know if this isnt allowed for some reason so just delete if not**
09-28-2010 , 11:19 AM
Why not do a bet on win rate with a min # of hands? Far more productive than betting on # of hands and it's best for both parties. How many tables do you play cos if you 24 table that could be a sick hustle.
09-28-2010 , 11:23 AM
i am currently 4 tabling rush, i play like an hour a day tops mostly unless i am playing tournies/sngs

i've never played more than 9 tables of a reg cash game, but i would be down for win rate but i think the min # of hands would have to be somewhat decent 20k? maybe idk

edit: if its winrate though then stakes/game would def have to be the same

I think its a great example of what's bound to happen when you never learn from your mistakes and set a "stop loss" of 80% of your roll. Maybe not an example that all of us need to see, but perhaps there should be a Beginner's thread linking to threads of guys who went on a run and failed, to serve as a BRM warning

ya that actually would be a good idea..so instead of everyone telling the new posters that br management is ultra important these people can see how other people have failed..

wow..dropped another BI thats already two times in less than 40 minutes i hit a set and there is a 4 card flush on board and i have to fold..omg
09-28-2010 , 04:46 PM
wierd session, i got runner runner twice and got stacked and got pissed and started playing extra aggressive like im playing hu or something, strange enough it caused me to be up, but i still had to end early cause i know i would of lost like 5 buy ins continuing with that mind set bluffing off my whole stack every hand ehh

up $6 this session, 1k hands of 5nl

bankroll= 707.68 ... this sucks though cause now i have to play 3k hands instead of 2 after i come home from school to fill my quota .. tilting sucks
09-28-2010 , 04:53 PM
^^i think ima drop down to 5nl...
09-28-2010 , 04:57 PM
^^ thats why i dont like using 20-25 buy ins, variance is a b****
