Took 4th in a 3/90 in my last game of 2010.. basically freerolled my way into 4th when two people went out when I had like.. 1.5bb.
12-31-2010 , 04:42 PM
I'm looking forward to 2011 myself. These last few days of the year I've just been watching some vids and reviewing some games before I hit 2011.
12-31-2010 , 04:43 PM
2nd

This year I am gonna go back to basics. I am gonna focus on cash as the main game and start at 2nl. No more sngs unless they are for $T or fpps.

GL for 2011

3rd

Got hit and run playing live yesterday. AJ vs TT AI pre, I knew I was flipping when I made that call but I hated the guy. Dumb, I know.

He played for less than 20 minutes. Son of a bitch.

I'm busto. Might stick to playing online (haven't played in weeks), kind of sick of playing 20 hands an hour.
12-31-2010 , 05:20 PM
I just posted for the first time in the other thread yesterday.

PS: $10.70

Haven't played poker since summer, but now I'm really gonna take it seriously. Gonna read Harrington on Online Cash Games and The Beginner's Toolbox thread. I never got out of 2nl so my goal is to do that.

I really want to develop my fundamentals, so I'm gonna just stick to 2-tabling for now.

Bogus, how come the new millenium started in 2000, but the new decade started in 2001? Makes no sense!!

Anyways, I finished 2010 w/ a winning session! Only 1 BI, but it counts.
12-31-2010 , 05:42 PM
gonna make a new years resolution to try and keep up with this thread lol

OK I will try this. After going through two 50K hand b/e stretches playing limit this past year I am saying FFFUUUUU limit and am going to focus solely on NL. Also due to game selection being better at NL. I have played around 5K hands of NL and 300K hands of limit so this should be fun.

Current bankrolls

FTP: 155.03 - Starting at NL5 until I get to 200 and then NL10
Stars: 1248.64 (was 1700 FU minbet poker) Starting at NL10 until I get 5K hands and then trying NL25
LOLUB: 49.79 - Starting at NL2

All playing fishmax.

GL all.

Sweet: New Thread - with 1/3rd of My Thread Suggestion

Plan of Attack:

PS:

Switching to 10NL FR for a while - but will play 6-max once in a while. Moving up to 25NL and 50NL as fast as I can once I beat 10NL (One time please)
Will also play $5-$11MTTs
Grind the 3.25/6.5 - 45 mans (with more volu,e)
Hopefully be on Track for Supernova

FTP:

I got silver iron man - so $50 End of Year Bonus - So I'll bonus whore that grinding 5NL / 10NL Rush.
Keep playing $4.40 Rush on Demand.

If all fails - Work on my game - Play 50NL and Switch to FTP and go for blackcard.

Not been in one of these before. Well it's the new year here in the UK now so HNY

Plan of attack:
  • Full iron man status every month
  • Black Card
  • NL50 Reg by the summer
  • Get some tourney coaching somewhere in the year
  • Vegas if I do well enough by the summer

Started a staking deal for 10NL on Thursday Morning. Going very well so far. I am going to be getting some top level coaching from one of the coaches in the stable aswell and he has set an aggresive goal for NL50 by the summer.

Graph so far:



Good luck everyone.

Spent most of last year cycling back and forth between playing my "A" game, tripling my BR, so that I could afford to "pay for lessons" by playing out of my comfort zone, which in turn droped my BR back to start. Rinse and Repeat again and again and again.

I learned A LOT doing that!

This year, now that my current "A" game makes last years look more like a "C" game, I am going to try and work on playing more then one table at a time.

Almost 2 years later and I'm still on my original deposit

Super standard. Your 4bet on the flop was the perfect setup to get his whole stack in on the turn. Just unlucky.

I have 41 cents in my Stars account.

I hope to have about 70 cents by the time 2011 starts.
12-31-2010 , 11:53 PM
Okay, going to try to post more in 2011...and beat 2nl for more than my current rate of 3.3BB/100.

PS bankroll at $72.96.

$80 is a resistance level for me. I played $1.20 SNGs for a while, started at $50, ran it up to to $80 and then went on a down-swing back to $50. Then I moved to 2nl FR, but quickly transitioned to 6max after observing that something like 50% of the players at any given FR table were 12+ tabling nits. Once again I ran my bankroll up to $80 and then collapsed back, although this time to only about $65.

Good luck to everyone in 2011!

PS - 36

gonna get an account on FTP for micro cash games w/ RB, and then use my PS to try and spike a donkament/work on my MTT and STT play.

I've been researching quite a bit and I think the RB will help no matter how little I get back.

Really lookin to hit a tourney big because my NJ lotto just got goose-egged. : X
