October Goals

[Sheiky 0]

Wait until you see the dark side of PLO.

Crappy. It's sad that it upsets me to come to work where I earn 60BB/hr guaranteed instead of being at home and giving away 3BB/100 at $25plo...lolFind myself again at the end of a month, waiting for next month to begin so that my rakeback from this month gets me back to nearly proper bankroll.

I guess that's it heh.Is PLO more influenced by variance than Hold em?

Is PLO more influenced by variance than Hold em?

I could give any number of answers to this, but they would all be evil, sadistic, excruciating, wrist slitting ways of saying yes.

What are Sklansky dollars>?

What are Sklansky dollars>?

The amount of money you make based on your equity in a pot. For example, lets say you have AA and an opponent goes allin for $50 and you of course call him. Your opponent flips over KK. Since you are about an 80% favorite, you have won 80 Sklansky dollars (80% of a $100 pot), whether or not you win or lose.Basically it's the amount of money per hand one is expected to win in the long run.

Had a short cash session today, -77. I was playing my D+ game and was really tired and unfocused. It could have been a lot worse. On a side note I made +700 last week. W00t.

I had been avoiding this thread for awhile, because I had been running so badly and I didn't just want to make a bad beat posts (I think I've said this before heh).I haven't gotten in nearly the amount of hands I would have liked to this month because I had horrible internet connection problems for two weeks, however recently since I have gotten that all straightened out. While I am still down on the month, I have put together a few consecutive winning sessions, and really feel I am playing the best poker of my life. Can't wait for November, going to dominate the **** out of it.

Tim, you're sick! nice work.well, as i said, my oct goals were to too qualify, I havent done that because god damned Crown Casino hasnt been running them since i showed up in Melbourne.Hopefully next week, (November) i'll have played a few and made it in.And since no Sat's I've been playing cash games, and with solid results, after 8 sessions i'm up 2.5k @ 1/2NL and 2/3NL

i havnt played since the 17th, and i swear to god that im about to lose my mind. im in italy now and apparently, online gambling is illegal here. Basically, I have learned three things since I have been here in Italy.1.) Italy is so so sick2.) Italian women are wayyy better looking3.) I have a gambling addictionhaha, i am here for another week. i hope my stomach doesnt explode from withdrawal before then.

How is this stopping you?

the IP of Full Tilt is blocked. I went and demanded answers from the company and they ranted back to me how bad gambling was blah blah blah, and then told me how no one can play in Italy.

[Zach6668 513]

Wow... fascism lives!

Please tell me your only playing the 1/2 game while your waiting for a 2/3 seat

I should have specified, the 1/2 was at Star City, i played there for a day before leaving for melbourne.I would not play star city ever again, and I've only been playing 2/3 at crown.

[FCP Bob 1,312]

August and September were my best months of poker ever.In October I had my worst week of poker ever but it's still been a good month overall and I've done better than my goal of making $1 per hand for the 12K hands that I've played this month.

Oh thank goodness, I played star's 1/2 for 4 hours the other day, but not for one minute did I think I could profit from the game. Crown is the nuts

Just had a bit of a heater of a cash game session. flopped tons of sets and straight. got paid on most. got sucked out on once for half a buy in.br up to 3.6k after a good sunday and a good tues. I hope this continues in the cash games and i feel a big tourny score is around the bend. PCA satellites have been on the backburner. no satellites are running that i want to jump in when i am playing. i want to play the 8+r to the DS and get into the 650 one more time. Things are rolling along. for those who messaged me about transferring FT for PS i went through a bit of a downswing and wanted to ensure that i had plenty of a roll on PS my main site. so i just didnt reply. still dont want to transfer anymore until i reach the 4k mark. i hope that is soon but whatever...peace

2.) Italian women are wayyy better looking

quoted for truthI was in Italy awhile ago and I remember people telling us to be very careful about obeying the law, and that they were very strict about things like marijuana. And so we came in on a train and were sitting in one of those little 8-person cars with some Italian soldiers, and they passed a joint around.

Final graph of October:I managed to get platinum star just before the month ended.
