i hit 1,000 pts on the nose when the clock hit midnight...don't why i cut it so damn close.

Haha nice! I 8 tabled like Hurt suggested to finish at 1030 with a few minutes to spare. Thx Hurt!

So I'm not the only one who starts playing at like 10:45 PM lol?

My mouse batteries died mid-session so I added an extra $2/4 table to make up for lost time (normally 6-table Rush).

I went all-in on a bluff 4 times today and was called 4 times. They're coming on to me!

I been trying to get in 500 pts from 12-1 am, then that 11PM crunch that night is a bit less crunchy.

I am gonna be screwed on Friday I think. I have about 3 hours Thursday to sleep as it is, and am gone all day and night Friday at a corporate event. Trying to figure out if $125 is worth halving that sleep time, or if I just gibve up now and accept the half bonus.

$125 buys quite a few 5 hour energy drinks

One of the few bright spots of my session:

lol am i crazy or did someone just delete their post flaming me for that hand? thx for trying to not tap the tank, but i saw it

Yay I made a good fold for once. Please stop making me fold sets though .

I think I might have a shot at this if last month's teeth pulling was anything to go by:

You make me very happy ^^^

Its more a relief than anything else to see someone else with alpine graphs. The emotional price we pay for the roller coaster of rush.

I like how all of your peaks are perfectly sharp. You get roughly 0 time to enjoy each upswing before doomswitch comes for you

Ohh that is sexy. So well balanced to....with the 2 "mini" dips before and after, it looks alot like 2 giant middle fingers, which is essentially what that graph is!


If I had better drawing skills I'd animate what I mean.

How much rakeback was this?? I really want to find out at .5/1 and 1/2 NL how much rakeback you earn from 5 k hands a day if anyone can give me a good average.

pointy graphs are pretty std in RUSH imo

Started the month with a $1200 rostucko yesterday too. 2/4 is WILD!

46k 1/2 for $725 rb
6.5k 2/4 for $140 rb
4k .5/1 for $40 rb

lol too small to read the text but love that pic.

Should i Jam river here or did I get the most of this as possible?

Make a real raise on the flop and it becomes really easy to get it all by the river...

who the **** cares about that HH?

Now I see y u shortstack.

Comments if Hero had 100BB in the hand:

If you jam the river, you will likely scare him away. You've extracted 20BB from him pre-river. You should only be shoving if you think you can get a call often enough in the long run. A min-opening idiot is unlikely to play for stacks with just one purrr after investing 20BB.

Like Tempestt said, make a real raise on the flop. The earlier you juice up the pot, the bigger the pot will be at the end. Your jam idea can be used on the river in a big enough pot because the villain will often convince himself he has odds to cawl with one purrrr.

Comments given Hero's stack size:

Play with a full buy-in.
Given your stack size, yes, shoving may be a good line. Your stack size may not scare away top purrr.

If Hero was a full stacker, it would probably one of the better hand histories posted in this thread. It isn't AIPF, villain has >100BB, and its by someone with a low post count with a legit question. He's trying to learn bro. He's not as good as you - give him a little slack.

Sorry, i didn't see the question below the HH

thought it was just a "i hit a set" cool story bro
