the day I have a kid is the day a newborn child meets worlds greatest father.

Been playing 50hu for about a month, was 8-9 bis below ev for the month but results were solid. Was hoping to move up to 100nl at some point this month and now 3 days into the month this. I know its only 12bis down but its ****ing annoying and if it carries on this way i wont be rolled to play hu for much longer

Show me 5k profit on 50nl in a month.
Ofc you just take out a random number, with a random time frame, wich makes ur argument pretty biased.

And PD, whats ur ratio between these three: Time with kid, time on 2p2, time at the tables. Be honest.


LOL@last graph, hang in there, some day you will be the one running like the sun.

Yup hopeless sounds about riiight

I dont play solely 50NL, so i dont get in enough hands there to have the graph that you are looking for...my buddy made $4k+/month for bunch of months in a row at 50NL before he moved up, and he didnt play a crazy amount of hours...ill make it easy for u...play 40 hours a week, and u need to make $31 an hour to get to $5k in a month, play 30 hrs a week and u need to make $41/hour...(obv this is not counting rakeback, so if u count RB ur money/hr doesnt even need to be as high as those numbers) so as u can see it is not that difficult if ur willing to put in the same or even less amount of hours as u would at a normal job

What are you doing with ~20bis in a first place?

And WS's name sounds about right about his future "fatherness quality".

back from borgata. I got 4th in the 2k Hu matches. won 3 matches then i lost to a fish on day 1 came back won 3 matches and lost losers bracket final to Ihaveastrong9 where our match lasted all of 10 minutes AA vs his 64 on the K10d4 flop and we got it in on the 4 turn. super cool guy though.

then obv lose a 200k pot flip in the main AKs to QQ.

wow might have to do some PMing cause my wife is prego right now due in May so i'll take any tips you can give me. We're having a girl also and it's our first.

40 hours a week. Whoever has time to do this, is either a professional or a machine.

If ur a professional, move up.
If ur a machine, making 40$/hr at 50nl, move up.

I felt like I played alot in january, with a really slack month of studying, and i made like 32 hours..

ya, obv im not talking about a recreational player...and obv u would move up if ur making that at 50NL, but im just proving a point that its not that difficult to make $5k a month at 50NL if u put in the hours...if u play an avg of 4 hours a day, thats almost 30 hrs a week, so its really not that hard to get in hours, when everyone else in the "real world" puts in 40 hour work weeks in only 5 days instead of 7

and im not calling u out, but if u felt like u played alot last month and only played 32 hours, there is something wrong...so u played a little over 1 hour per day?...makes no sense

I'd be glad to help. Wish you good birth!

So do you play poker for a living playing NL50?

no...i play 50-200...switched over from 6max mayble like 6months ago, bc HU is better money for me, and alot less thinking bc i used to grind alot of tables at 6max, so u have to think every second, whereas in HU there is alot of down time, which i really like

Thanks for your answers on the coaching after talking too WS probably going too sign up too a training sites and watch alot more vids and stuff before getting coaching, i work 38 hours a week so I play poker as much as I can on my days off and after work I don't like my job so thinking of joining the army or Getting back into I.t, see I'm a late starter at poker I'm 25 never went too college cause I played professional sport but had a shoulder reconstruction and some other reasons so not playing anymore most of you guys are students and very smart would love too play fulltime but have too be honest with my self, might go and do a maths course at tech cause I struggle with that side of poker...

hmm, Im sure your nonshowdawn winnings suck, am I wrong?

it happend to me several times, when I was losing a lot in non showdawn and then losing some flips etc, work on you nonshow and it shuld be fine

ive averaged 60BIs @50hu for over a year now, but i am no pro ..

someone please tell me to move up, pretty please

edit : no rakeback included

stay there and 6 table

Well, at least for me, HU is a whole other story than, lets say 20 tabling FR, wich i can do for like 5hrs a day. But at HU i really lose focus fast, and then my wr drops like crazy.

Playing 4 hours of HU everyday, would kill me.

Kudos to the guy above me btw, way to stick at the micros.

Location: Looking for 100-200nl stake

In terms of value per dollar maybe (especially for ppl new to HU), but in improving your overall game coaching is the nuts imo.

are u referring to me? if yes then i am in the US ..

All i am saying is you are going to have no long term stability. So find a damn job or go to school. That's all

Edit: I was also not talking about people living in SE Asia or the like

disagree boss
