I feel destined to bust.

BR: $176. I should drop to 5nl, but if I can't beat 10 I don't deserve to play.

~1 hour/day * ~14 days * ~70 hands/hour = ~1000 hands, so probably mostly 2 tabling.

$22 = 1100bb (= 550ptBB)

1100bb/2118 hands = 52bb/100 (= 26ptBB/100)

That's very good progress and probably not sustainable over the long term.

wow, Full Tilt is a joke

2.5K hands at Full Tilt 25Nl and losing 596ptbb/100 with AA and KK. Never won all in preflop

river cards are so sick that I even had to fold a full house today

Should have folded this one too. One of them surely had a straight, but the other guy I should have figured would have a higher fullhouse (TT, 99, J9, JT all beat me)

Full tilt has always been a joke

I have been running so poorly the last week, I started september 9th with a bankroll of $130 on full tilt and I have been stuck at between $350 and $396 for a week now. I can't seem to fix my red line, it's decling as fast as my blue line is rising. And hands like this aren't helping of course.

Nice that is where I was about 2 months ago, then struggled for a few days at 25NL dropped down and then got hammered on 10NL worked my way back up to where I was finally.

^^

That's familiar

I don't even get that mad when they flop a set when I am all in with AA or KK (like 50% of the time, lol), but what pisses me off is when FT doesn't give them a set but instead gives them a runner runner gutshot straight. like seriously, come on! i can't fold my premiums preflop, let me win sometimes at least

Ah Damn - IceWolf - Just saw that you were selling 2 sessions with Verneer. If you posted it here I would have snapped it up

i run pretty bad at FT too but i was still up for this session. i've been 4 tabling rush poker and i want to start using my HUD but i need to find a good layout, the best background of the table that doesnt blend in with my stats. also is there a way i can change the color/appearance of my PT stats?

dangg so i guess i might be seeing you soon on the 5nl 6 max ice???

This hand pretty much made my night, other than seeing BlaneH at the tables, as about 4 hands earlier this guy at the table was flipping out and complaining about collusion between these two players and saying he was going to support.

alright so my instant watch neflix isnt working right now, so i thought i would reconsider my HUD and stats and bring up some small discussion here if anyone was interested.

currently my HUD consists of
Name/# of hands
VPIP/PF/3Bet
Ft3bet/FtCBet
Steal%/Fold BB to Steal

i am going to add Cbet flop and Cbet turn because i feel it will help me recognize better when to float

if any of you guys use additional stats let me know why you use them and i will consider them.

I also just recently changed the background/solidarity of my HUD so its like 100x easier to see

was considering AF but do you guys think its really important to have, i'm not even sure in what way i would use it to benefit my game, whereas every other stat has a purpose and definite use

Only for a week or so maybe. I have a few small tweaks I want to work on... so I'll be down at 5nl to try and work on the kinks.. but then it's right back to 10nl.

To me... unless you play at a site where you have to move the hud stats around to match the name (like at merge network).. having the name in there is pretty useless.. so you could take what you have and make it one line smaller by adding # of hands either before vpip or after 3bet.

Discussion Questions

Where are you at in poker right now?

Where are you planning to see yourself in 3 months (years end)?

Where are you planning to see yourself in 6 months (April)?

Where are you planning to see yourself in 1 year (October 2011)?

Be realistic..... I'll bookmark this post and its replies and come back to it to see how we are doing then. I'm not looking for lists of goals or anything... just a simple I plan to be at Xnl.. or playing $X abi mtt's.. or playing Xplo.

1432 hands today

The hand that made me a silverstar. I should get Supernova just for making this guy think his 8s are good.

given the flop i think id be shoving here too..but you have to 3b that pre..why didnt you?? you really lose info on the strength of villains hand..unless he would have just flatted pre, but my guess would be that he would have 3 bet you pre as well..and at that point best i would hope for would be AK..cuz i dont see too many people 3 betting a 3 better with anything worse than QQ

My Goals

YESSSSSS, After searching 1 hour through 2000 emails on yahoo, I found the email for my HEM Pro version. Dated 17 Sep 2009. So 1 year ago, I was playing 100NL for a short time.. 1 year later, I' haven't touched that stake. Backwards progression.

this is why i love gmail

That is indeed really good. If you can sustain it, gratz to you. Might just be running hot though, not sure.

Anywho, up a little over a buy-in and over 800 hands despite a very rough start.

I'm starting to like poker again.

I have a 62/20 maniac with a 5 buy-in stack on the table at 2NL. It's really a shame cause I wanna go sleep.
