XXEddie 0 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 SERIOUS!okay, so today i'm starting an actual challenge. i'm gonna see how much i can build 1K into. i'll start at 3/6 and move up as soon as i have 250BBs for the next level and move down at 250BBs for the level below. unless i bust it at 3/6.omg, please don't do that.

navybuttons 15 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 omg, please don't do that.ummm... why?btw, i don't think 10K is an unreasonable number at all. but i'm shooting for 20Khey navy, I've watched you play a bit today. I've learned a lot just from watching and I wish I could play like that, except I tend to end up tilting. GL the rest of the night .. I'm curious why everyone seems to shortstack against you.yeah, people are silly. it's mostly hnrunners. it sucks when a guy sits with 40 and i quit him when he's sitting on 300.AIM zach for my AIM. when i'm on i'll let you rail and give hands.

DinkDonk 1 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Sorry for the hijack guys. Is anyone else doing any sort of long(ish)term challenge in here? i think someone is. lemme search.http://www.fullcontactpoker.com/poker-foru...t&p=2548465 Grrrrrrrrrrr. I did not think this was a longterm challenge. It was a legitimate question. Link to post Share on other sites
ROBBBIGG 0 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Thanks Checky, got two more hands:http://www.pokerhand.org/?2395757http://www.pokerhand.org/?2395764Hand 1 was really bad right?Hand 2 - The guy seemed to have a decent idea as to what's going on, so I had him stealing on 3rd. I was pretty sure that he'd give up when he was showing 10s and I kept betting, but I lucked out when he kept calling. I think in isolation this looks donkish, but I've been playing really tight and only showing down very strong hands. Is it still donkish anyway? Link to post Share on other sites

I think in isolation this looks donkish, but I've been playing really tight and only showing down very strong hands. Is it still donkish anyway?Hand 1: Fold 3rd. As played, slow down on 5th. I'd even advocate folding; loveleelady called your raise on 4th, and unless she had a 3 flush, that 8 didn't help her at all. I'd fold 6th; if she had the 3 flush, it just got there.Hand 2: Kinda. It worked out though. I wouldn't get so aggressive on 3rd with split 3's and a Jack kicker. Also, I don't like your bet when he pairs his 10; he's not going to go away, and you can't beat much of anything. Why he didn't raise is beyond me though.You know there's a stud forum, right?He has a better chance of getting an answer here. Link to post Share on other sites
navybuttons 15 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Grrrrrrrrrrr. I did not think this was a longterm challenge. It was a legitimate question. my long challenge was to be rolled for the 60/120 or 75/150 game (whichever goes off) at the bellagio this summer. but i'm not gonna post daily results to that end.today's final tally: 1040 hands day 1: +$712total br: $1712 Link to post Share on other sites
ROBBBIGG 0 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Thanks Checky, I'm probably gonna move up to .25/.5 Stud Hi Tuesday if Monday goes well and appreciate the help.And I assumed I'd get more responses here than the Stud forum. If it bothers people, I'll start posting them all there, but I figure posting 2-4 threads of basic hands/day would be annoying. Link to post Share on other sites

wsox8 10 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 found $30 laying around in my account so I'll be playing .25/.50 and .50/1 (yeah underrolled) on APFew random Qs for Cake Players: How's the lhe games? (.50/1 through 2/4) Can you deposit using visa gift cards? How's the layout, withdrawls, etc? Lists are cool.Basically is it worth it or should I just stick to playing just AP? ( I know what Zach is going to say). I always enjoyed playing more than one site to spice it up. Link to post Share on other sites

I always enjoyed playing more than one site to spice it up.i agree about spicing it up with software. but cake's rake at the levels i play are higher than AP. i'm not gonna move any money to cake until i'm at about 20/40 or so. 2 or 3BB/100 is a lot to give up at HU. and i wouldn't move to HU until 2/4.loooooooooooooooooool you should see him in the wife beater with the porn star stachethey're hanes v-necks. last years "running good stache" didn't work out so well. maybe i'll grow another one for this summer. i'll give it some thought.

sinc 0 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 just imagine when i start running good.Didn't you say you are playing 3/6? 118 bets in 1k hands is not running good? :S That is running red hot for me lol. I'm in late to this thread apparently, but hopefully I can force myself to read/post in it more. A little backstory in case anyone is interested:Been playing minbet online for 3 years now, started with a 100 buck deposit on royalvegas poker and built up a roll to play 5/10 about 2.5 years ago. At the time I was an average tag player, but the games were so good you pretty much couldn't lose money in them thankfully or my story would be a lot shorter I'd guess. Been playing 5/10 and 10/20 6 max semi pro since(currently attend university, poker is just my part time job). Thats about it, would just like to warn anyone new to limit to run away as fast as you can, I feel like there has to be something wrong with me to play this stupid damn game lol.
