Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 240 bucks to 10k is pretty crazy for that time period....I have a current goal of getting to 10k by the end of the year so I can make a run at 100k next year. I am getting married next year and want to be able to provide for a house/cars and such. So getting the br up is a good investment overall...Once i get back up to 100nl or 200nl It should be a fast transition. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 I just cracked the $5000 mark for total profit in August. Unless I lose big over the rest of the month, this will be my first >$5k month since turning "pro".Hopefully, I can make it a $6000 or $7000 month before the end. Link to post Share on other sites

Alex916F 0 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 I've gone on life tilt.... took 2 weeks off of poker to try and refocus after a dowswing that has lasted since the second week of july... hoped it would turn around.....today is my 3rd day back after the break... haven't even been playing my normal 100 NL fr game. playing like 25NL and low buy in tournies. Can't win to save my life... something has flipped in my brain.... anytime i have a strong hand i either slowplay it till they catch up in very disgusting ways or bet when they have complete air and lose value... tournies i seem to bluff off my stack half the time the other half go card dead wait for a good spot to push and get beat by 60/40s or 3:1 where i am the fav. I can't seem to do anything right. I watch CR videos and i feel like they make me too LAG and ppl just pick me off. I try to tighten up and ppl seem to run over me and when i take a stand they either have it or suckout on me. ISAP..Had a 5K br and have now swung down to 2.4k.... really tempted to just take out the 2k and go back to grinding micro stakes to remind me how to play again. how to be a nit. I honestly can't remember how i played back in those stakes but it was really nitty... my problem is that i love the 10 dollar tournies so much that if i drop to 400 br i won't be rolled for it anymore... i need some encouragment... i can't remember a time recently where i called an early position raise with a pp and spiked a set and stacked someone. i can't remember rivering a flush and getting paid. I can't remember a semi bluff working or the draw coming through. every dry flop i get c/r and every pot i try to keep small balloons when i am behind. Sorry about the lament and the self pity... this game can humble you at times.... Link to post Share on other sites
Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Feel like a degenerate as I write this. Hung out with the fiancee and friends and had a couple drinks. Went home and fired up PS to play. For some reason felt 3/6 was the right move..Got myself up to 800 and then lost it all. Deposited 150 more and got it back up to 650. So on the night I ended up about $70, but not happy with myself at all. Link to post Share on other sites

Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 Actually I think I bought into 1/2 and then moved to 3/6 once I got up money. Such a bad habit when I drink. Link to post Share on other sites

Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 No joke...I looked over the train wreck that was last night and wow.Most impressive thing to me is I ended back up overall. My PT stats look awful now though haha. I need to figure out how to filter that night out. On the plus side, I am back to my game today playing better. Excluding my rebuy yesterday that I am getting off the site as soon as the 48 hour period is up to do withdrawals...I am up to 567.7. Being fully rolled for 25nl is nice at least now.

Zach6668 513 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 You can remove sessions, if you want.Close all the windows in PT first, then go to Utilities > Database Maintenance and Options, then select the sessions you wish to purge. This will take them right out of your DB, not filter them. Link to post Share on other sites
iggymcfly 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Or you could just uncheck 3/6 NL in the preferences tab. I'm guessing that OP won't have any other 3/6 sessions for a while that he needs to compare. I've actually been a little degenerate myself again lately, as for some reason I've been playing bad when taking shots at 2/4 and that led to some tilt which led to some shots at 3/6 last night. I was down about $3500 for a while, but then I won a $2,700 multiway pot with top boat to get myself back in decent shape and then won a little more back playing 1/2 today. My Stars roll's fine now, but I'm going to have to be really careful about 2/4 and move up slowly. It's funny, 25 BI seemed like plenty a few weeks ago, and now it seems woefully underrolled.

Roberts2003 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Heads up NL vs bad people is like printing $. I won $4,900 yesterday over 450 hands at 5 10 NL heads up and a little 10 20 NL heads up. Lost around $300 at 5 10 NL 6 max, so yesterday turned out pretty well for me. I have won $12,823 this month in 4,505 hands on my computer, then had 1 drunken night at my friends house on his computer where I won around 1.1K, so overall, I have made around 14K this month playing very few hands. Hopefully I can make a couple more thousand before the end of the month, and then next month, really put in a ton of hands and try for a big number.UPSBankroll-$61,350 Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Tour 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 I fucking hate poker.dude, u and me bothas soon as i reached 10k, i went to rama last night. flop top set of kings in a 3 way pot afrter i re-pop pf. 2 hearts on board, checks to me, i bet, 1 call. turn blank, check to me, i shovel. guy snap calls with nothing but the FD. other guy says he folded a FD too.. 14% and he hits it.love it. i steamed after that cuz i have tiltaments issues Link to post Share on other sites
Mattnxtc 0 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Such a frustrating session. Should have been up about 50 instead of just up 6. Get it all in with the guy drawing dead to a flush and bam..hits it on the river. Rebuy and go card dead. I was really working on openin up my 3 bet range and was pretty happy overall with it at least. Its comforting to be fully rolled for the level. Link to post Share on other sites
