awesome month

nah it sucked. check this out:



yea.......

pretty much just seemed to run terrible and get coolered over and over. i lost way too many pots where im trapping some over agressive reg and get boned by the river. here is a fun example:

stacks r such that 4bets increase, ie he can 4bet me and i have to risk so much to continue. so i call w AK cause im pretty sure i will have the best hand here alot and 5betting isnt great. flop amazingly. check call to look like JJ QQ or similar. ch/ch turn and i lead a blocker river bet to hopefully induce a bluff or get a weak hand to call. another awesome backdoor gets there.


fml look at the size of this guys reraise. leaves me no room to rebluff or call light, just straight up coolered by a moron...


so this weekend i had nothing to do on saturday and played a 7 hour session of 50nl rush poker lols. well i won 17 buyins !!! wow it was fun. i gota give 100nl rush another shot cause rush is so much better than table selecting 200nl where there r so few fish. and if i was a fish id wana play rush...

in other news we had a homegame on the long weekend. 4pm to 6am i think. i honestly dont remember any hands after i came back from a break at 11pm. but somehow i lost my profits and ended up roughly $500 in the hole??? o god i shouldnt play when i am super tired. 5 card no limit omaha was pretty fun tho :D

all in all a fail month. another stupid thing is i have been getting up early and forcing myself to play on the weekends so i can get hands in before i go out etc. this is not a good way to play! if i get on tilt i dont wana stop cause i only have limited time. i know i should have definetly stopped some of those sessions early. o well learning the hard way. been back into watching videos. have found some real gems if u guys get a cardrunners account going. maybe i can share mine i dont see how they can stop me. hit me up if ur keen anyway.

200NL & 50NL rush october: rakeback is wrong its about half of that *cry*


also ima keep track of my FTPs cause i cant work out how fast im getting them. its going up extremly fast though. in 80years i can prob buy that BMW

ups and downs

had a spewtastic weekend. and october has definetly not been a good month for me. althogh ive only played 8k hands cause my comp broke. rakeback seems to have taken roughly a 25% hit from this new FT thing which is also super gay. so what happened on the weekend? i played fine but it all went horribly wrong...

so this first hand may be a mistake. im versing a fish with stats 30/1 lol. i guess is shouldnt shove the river but it must be close. thinking about it now he raises 1% of hands so he could even have AQ. not off to a good start...


i went on genuine tilt after this hand tho. having a bit of a war with this guy then bam i trap him. god i felt like phil hellmuth.


3% on flop. gota slow play them cowboys :(


o well at least i owned this guy!


the rest of the hands r just set over set or set verse draw thing. i see now i did tilt a bit looking at some of these hands. bit of the ol' run bad play bad combo. this weekend im guna grind like a madman i tell you

homegames:
had one the other week where not too much interesting stuff happened too me. i had one big hand verse remi. he 3bets from the blinds verse like luke or something so i 4bet him w AJ, like i dont mind a call or a fold im in position with probly the best hand anyway. he calls and flop is JTx he leads pot really fast. heres my remi tell, he bets fast and doesnt think when hes bluffing. dont tell anyone mmk? so he bets like $25 i call. turn is a brick he bets $65 in the same fasion and i have like 30 behind but just call cause i want him to bet again. river is a god awful JTxxQ. KQ JQ AK 9T etc etc all got there but i dont have much left so i call but i just know he hit it. he has Q9. $120ish gone.

last night was a cracker tho i was hitting every flop. luke payed me off about 50 times. i had 2 big pots verse phillip one where he pretty much shipped me his stack on KxxK with JJ and i had Ak and had just called his 3bet in position. another hand he 3bets someone and i 4bet him with Q9s. he calls and donks a 678 flop and i put him all in for ~$60 more. he made a good call tho and had JJ. we ran it 4 times and split it haha.

chewy was playing like an egg verse me for some reason. one hand stood out, flop was QTx and i cbet, he raises me 3way so i shove him with ~70 effective stacks. he calls with Q5??? i dont even know what hes thinking in these spots but he keeps doing it. i brick my straight draw

i think the best thing tho was twice i 4et luke in position with 600bb stacks. both times he was squeezing from blinds and i have A rang but if he makes it $15, i make it $40 he cant do shit unless he has AA KK or is sure im bluffing. and i know luke isnt guna rebluff me cause he wants to protect his wins for a better spot ;)

finally i got 72 about 5 times and won every hand. phillip limp reraised me and i 4bet him once and he mucked which was fun. also luke actually folded once when i baralled an A turn and i had 72 this time of course. best one tho was verse phillip. turns out we had alot of hands but thats cause i was on his right and playing alot of hands with him. so im raiser in cutoff maybe 5handed and take an A66 flop in position. i cbet and phil reraises me. i just call cause thats what id do with an A, and i doubt he has a strong one or any A at that. he checks turn and i bet $5 into like $25 pot. he folds hehe ship them 50 cents! so cash out $290 up

hmmmm 6handed casino torney coming up. $600 buyin. could be something to get excited about

recent stuff

played a bit on the weekend but was down half a buyin. had a couple kool hands.

not a big pot but here i turn an overpair into a bluff on the river. im just calling pre and on the flop cause there is a fish in the blinds. by the time we get to the river i think he has AA KK or an 8. i can rep a T so well i think it was good to bet as a bluff cause pretty much no hands he has call me except a T. he tanked river and talked in chat so im pretty sure i had the worst hand. was just a different kinda play, so standard to just check behind there.

ok the hand replayer thing is down so i just post the whole thing like a noob...i got into the 'black card' club which needs an average of 500ftp per day over the last 100 days. now i earn double ftps at all times. they really rack up im up to 140k FTP. just guna keep saving and buy something massive one day.

had a fun home game the other night too. hadnt won for a while but cashed for $430 this time. had 3 main hands.

the first was verse luke surprise surprise. he 3bets an early raise after i had called from the bb so i call with ATs in position and kinda deep. flop a flush draw cause i run so good. Qxx. i didnt really wana raise cause i thought luke might get in in light here. so i call and hit a flush on the turn. he checks so i bet half pot and he shoves with something, i tihnk AQ. that was about $110 more to my stack.

Had a weird hand verse remi. he 3bet the button like he does so i 4bet him with Q9s. flop is Qxx. i think i have the best hand but dont wana get bluffed and its not like i can get 3 streets of value w Q9 oop. checking lets him bluff me too. so he bets flop pretty big, i call. ch/ch turn. i think he has nothing after he checks so i check the river when i hit trip Qs. he bets pretty small has about $40 left. i didnt think a worse hand would call so i just called. i really should have raised now i think about it. he thought i slow rolled him lol cause i took ages to think about it.

the last hand i get 72 and raise early. remis friend 3bets the button really small and we r super deep. so i dont think he has a good hand cause he should have made it bigger. plus i seen him do some abnormal bets when hes bluffing prob cause hes nervous. if he has a big hand i planned to bluff on a good board with so much money behind. amon called too. set minning for shizzle. flop bottom two ofcourse! 972 no flush draw. he cbets and i call still thinking he has nothing so no point in raising. turn is 972T bringing a flush draw. not such a great card for bottom 2 he could have got a set or better 2 pair but more importantly if i raise it looks scary and he might fold an overpair if he actually had a hand. so i smooth call again. river is a kinda bad card bringing pairing the ten 972TT and counterfitting my 2 pair. then he puts out a monster pot sized bet of $65. i was pretty sure i had him straight away but took a long time cause i wanted to think it through fully. i had seen him do some big bluffs before. he bet so big i doubt he does this with AA KK. the key is my range looks so weak playing it like i did, so hed only bet huge if he wanted a fold. of course he could be levling me and know i know this but i doubted that. plus as i tanked he sat there forzen, which is a slight universal tell for when someone is bluffing. all the signs pointed me towards a bluff so i called and was right. he had AK and had picked up a flush draw on the turn.

oh and one last hand. i complete bb w Q9 w luke raising and marco in pot. checked round low flop and turn is a queen. i check again cause i know luke cant resist a steal and he bets, marco calls so do i. river is a blank and i bet out cause i think luke prob bluffing and will check and i want value from marco. luke reraises me $10 to $40. i put him exactly on AQ or nothing how the hand went down. in hindsight i should shove me top pair here! he would have to fold for sure. next time luke....

also had a pokersoc torney with the standard last longer $50 bet. i donked out w about 15bb on KJx 3 way w KT when some guy min raised my cbet w KQ. guess i can fold there but meh prob fine either way. can never win these donkaments!
