don't bet so big on flop..

lol ty

God damn! I got this feeling that I wouldn't care how bad I run and how much I lose if I only knew I wouldn't BUST my damn roll if it continues for only a few days. So frustrating to be limited by it. Also planning to hit that stupid 300k VPP milestone so dropping down stakes would force me to play 16 hours a day or something, and that's not going to happen.

\rant

Seriously, I'm almost on a f**king 60BI downswing right now. If I had a 200BI+ roll I wouldn't care, but with a current 40BI it's starting to hurt.

Also, f**k EV. Everyone's crying about EV. Where's your damn EV when someone calls your 4-bet with AA leaving literally $0.5 and then sticks it in on the flop when they hit? Where's your EV when you play CORRECTLY but end up in situations where you end up losing, not because of them sucking out, but because of them flopping better than you or simply coolering you? Running situationally bad is far worse than running "all-in EV" bad.

There, feel a little better now.

my biggest downswing of all time was about 25 buy ins and apart fomr that more than 8 buy ins is very rare. I don't get how your losing as your theory is pretty solid, tilt much? playing too much volume? try 4 tabling until you get 20 buy ins back, or buy in for less so there are less decisions, time is on your side

I think I'm playing alright. Or if we should put it like this: I think I make far less mistakes than most players I encounter do, including the regulars. I see lots of them make a ton of blatant mistakes that I'd never do, that they don't realize are mistakes. So simply based on that I should have an edge. But I guess the variance of the game, coupled with me playing more tables and tighter than I'm used to, and running situationally (and all-in EV) bad you can get boned pretty easily.

The thing is that time isn't on my side. I've made plans for which I need to hit 300k VPP and cash out the milestones and $4k bonuses I get from it (at 140k VPP currently) and I can't cancel those plans. So if worst comes to worst I guess I'll have to play with 20bb or something until that's taken care of. Pretty crappy situation.

Basically, I don't care if I'm running bad or how bad I'm running. That which bothers me is that I'm going busto if it continues. If I was properly rolled I wouldn't care nearly as much. And I don't care too damn much as it is, anyway.

its criminal that this post was followed by 5 posts without even acknowledging the level of hotness in these pics. the 2nd pic is kinda tilting though cause i am trying to turn my monitor upside down!

nvm FTP are bastards

It may be an indication that the forum likes poker more than vagina or just not like asian chix

Dude, remember you're playing for money and not vpps, 60 buy ins is pretty brutal. is the 300k vpps worth 60 buy ins? Or what if you get the 300k vpps and it cost you 85 buy ins to do so? If wou was focusing on winning more you could be plus 60 buy ins which is a 120 buy in difference. I use to have a focus on rakeback, this tilted my game slightly, I use to 8table rush like a nutter and I'd break even, but had I had 4tabled I would have made alot more. it is only a side bonus, having a solid winrate is much preferable because then you can move up, and it increases confidence ect.

Sounds to me like you're tilted, or maybe you are just running really bad. Too much volume can make you feel like feel like you're running bad when in fact you may be missing a hell of a lot of opportunities to apply pressure and take pots, tilting with high volume is also horrible for your roll. 'not caring' is tilt, how you run is suppose to be meaningful, because then you might be gambling in losing situations because you don't care if you hit or miss.

I suppose if you can reload its ok to get the vpps for supernova or whatever, because then you move up and play less volume,,,,

Man this game can be so annoying, more so then NL by fair. Today, everyone is chasing there flush vs my set or straight for 2 streets and hitting...

I really need to deposit more and move up to nosebleed PLO10... Where they only play decent cards i hear?

Hi Boys

How do people get so lucky when making such stupid calls pre?? I mean wtf seriously.

standard start to every ****ing month. **** you 2010, **** you right in the ass.

Thats impressive. I have never seen a perfect split down the middle before.

GL duder. Hope you start running better.

mrw, you need to post results

AA of course.

arent u playing mostly the short tables though? if so, its your own fault. if not, sorry bro, hope u run better

Yeah, I'm definitely not the guy who plays for VPPs. I've never done that. Except for the following two months. Since the swongs of PLO can't guarantee me any monetary win/loss with any kind of certainty, the bonuses at least can, which is why I'm trying to get them. And I do absolutely try my best to play solid and as good as I can (as good as one can on many tables). I'm not just putting in hands for the sake of it, even though I'm on a schedule.

The "not caring" part is actually great, I think. There was a time when I would get pretty tilted losing all-in after all-in but now I sincerely don't care (maybe 10%). The little bit I care is only because of the concern of busting. All this means is that what I care about is how good/bad my own play is. After that I can't affect anything. And that's a mindset I've been looking to have for a long time. So that's all good.

I agree with playing less tables. I tried playing 20-50bb tables for 30-40k hands now and I hate them. There's no damn skill involved. I've always hated short stacked poker since I played NLHE, but I decided to give them a shot in PLO. Ones skill edge is totally massacred when stacks are so short and the variance is sick, so my conclusion is that I hate them. Played a long session of "normal" poker today and that just felt awesome. So I'm going to continue with that and hope I start running better. Again, re-post of graph at either -6000bb or break-even.

Thanks for a sincere reply, by the way.

He mad
