if I table selected, yes.

Yeah, but certainly I was only going to offer it for 6max. I don't expect chip dumping to happen, but it gets weird.

My fiancee (not sure if the girl gets 1 e or 2) is considering Vegas for our honeymoon destination (absent anything from me).... she doesn't like beaches much and she likes casinos, and she likes hiking and there's a bunch of national parks near Vegas.

But anyway that would be June 2010, not this June ... but maybe that year I'll get in some "tear up the cash game at WSOP time".

Ooops, you beat me to it.

TBH, 3BB/100 is pretty decent, and he's probably a decent player, which is why I find it strange. I think any decent player should have a decent grasp on what is achievable and what is not, and 15ptbb/100 at 50NL is sort of bs. If he can maintain that at 50NL, why would he play 100NL, or even 200NL for 3ptbb/100? Doesn't make sense. I think even for a very very good player, 15ptbb/100 at 50NL is close to impossible, I mean, come on, that's only achievable if your villains never top pair no kicker and would routinely spew in other ways, and even then you have to run good.

So this is not about me thinking he plays bad, I just think it highly unlikely that many players can do it, and if a player can do it, he's probably going to win a LOT more money doing something else than this silly prop bet.

Therefore, imo my side of the bet is for all practical purposes definitely +EV, unless some decided to take it just to take my money at the cost of their own time. So. uhhh. lol?

What bet are you talking about? I'll put up a pretty decent sized amount of $ against almost anyone if not anyone that they can't beat 50NL for 15PTBB/100hands (6max or FR, no HU, and has to be a decent hand sample).

Everyone stealing my action =(

This totally isn't gonna happen. Eventually we're going to fight over the action and one of us will end up giving him 100:1 and then he does it by some miracle and the guy goes broke.

15ptbb/100 at 50nl isn't sustainable at anything but HU, even then it's rocky.

Man, I stink and should take a shower but I got myself in this stupid donkament. ... I better win something or else it definitely wasnt worth smelling myself for a couple hours.
04-20-2009 , 04:35 PM
Well, i finally got myself a positive graph to post, lol.

[x] Positive graph
[x] Miniscule sample size
[ ] NL
[ ] Worth posting
[x] Seeing even a fairly pointless positive graph makes me feel a bit better



Decided to mess around with some limit again since i've been really tired the last few days. And managed to run ridiculously hot over my first 1.5k hands. Does make me feel slightly better seeing a positive graph. will probably only play limit when i'm tired now as its a good way of not losing big pots when i'm not thinking too clearly.
04-20-2009 , 04:39 PM
playing tired in general is a bad idea.
04-20-2009 , 04:47 PM
I know, sadly i'm an insomniac so i'm almost constantly tired. I tend to sleep about every other night if i'm lucky. I'm taking the rest of this week off work to try out a few ideas to try and get myself into a decent routine again. Hopefully if this works it'll help to lift my whole slightly negative state of mind and help me to concentrate a bit more on improving my game. We shall see though.........and FFS why do my laptop keys keep sticking

Edit: Forgot to mention, I normally do try and avoid playing tired. But if i've not slept the night before (like i didn't last night) I don't like going to sleep too early because i'll just end up waking up a few hours later and not get back to sleep again. And poker seems to be one of the few things that keeps my mind active enough to keep me awake.

RoSeeker should get first crack at the action.



Was I second? I hope there's action left when it gets to me.
04-20-2009 , 05:30 PM
I'm second lego. *This is MikealDH's gimmick account.

But it doesn't really matter, i doubt this thing will get off the ground, guy was just trying to wave his epeen imo.

Still in. in the money. but 260 players still need to get out before I get to the 0.5% payout.

2750 runners, pays 390? wtf? lol
