New Challenge: Movin' On Up


Recommended Posts

I meant at hand 95 where you're up a buy-in... call it a day;)I was always bad at stop-losses too. Like if I dropped a few bi in a short amount of time I'd tilt quit... look over some hands, try to get my head straight and then either grind again or take the day off (which I obv love to do)My worst days ever were days chasing losses where I would keep telling myself that I was due to cooler someone or just win a pot... then I'd play weak/tight/bad and just keep losing...I need to lose a few pots so I can put in some volume. I'm too good at poker and just grind 300 hands and quit up a few bi, fml

This deserves to get seen by a few more people. From our resident Stupidhead...v1.27Feral Cow Poker Hand ConverterHEM/Poker Stars NL Hold'em $1.00/$2.00 - 6 playersButton: $237.98SB: $200.00BB: $60.00

I remember when this thread was all about how bad KJ was at 3betting

He's probably not flatting KJ's raise otf if he had a2. Besides, A2 is such a small portion of his range here, we are never ever ever ever ever ever ever folding the turn. People are stupid, they do

Made an epic comeback from down almost $500 to a $75 profit at Ameristar 1/2nl last night.Got set<set the first hand I sat down to instantly drop $200. Then I spent a 2 hours or so getting raised on the river everytime. Finally I was down to like $60(in for $500) and decided to buy $200 more. Went on a serious tear. AA>QQ, straight>2 pair, even managed to lay down J9 on a 9978 board to 98. However the one hand I can thank my comeback on....Asian lady in seat 3 raises to 5. I call in CO with T8hh. Sb raises to 20, BB calls, Lady call, I call. Flop A97r. Sb shoved 54, bb calls, lady folds, I call. Turn 3. BB bets 75. I do the math, see there is about 320 in the middle, 75 to call gives me like 4.3-1. Plus BB has 200+ behind. So I call, and have to fight the urge to crawl under the table and blow the dealer when then 6d hits. BB bets $100, I raises to $200(damn you, $100 limit!). He calls with 77, SB had AQ. Also made a nice bluff again the BB in the previous hand an hour or so earlier. called a raise with KTcc to 12, 4 or 5 way flop. J98. PFR bets 35, I call and so do 2 more (including 77 guy, we will call him AA for Aggro Asian). Turn, blank. Checked to AA who bets 75. Folds to me and I make it 175 he folds AJ face up. I raised because his play just didn't seem strong. Unless he had QT, he wouldn't flat the flop with 3 people I don't think. Plus, I felt my line looked very strong and he wouldn't be able to call with at least 2 pair. wee live pokerz

I was once down to like $30 or $40 (from my initial and only $100 buy in, pre law change in FL when you could only buy in for $100).Went on a big heater, and cashed out for a little over $900Fun times.

I'd totally be down, James! If you'll be in town Friday night and you're down for pokerz the 1/3 game I play runs that night and it's off I-225 and Mississippi. It's not as soft as Blackhawk (honestly, what is?) but it's closer and bigger limits.

Yeah, and if you are around Sunday there is an awesome .25/.50/1 NLH and NLO8 that I will likely go to. It's at 225 and Parker area. It also runs Tuesdays and Friday nights. Horrible middle-aged dudes who play every hand in omaha and most hands in holdem.#young'nsonthegrind

SJs story reminded me off this from my 1/3 game (back when it was 1/2).Got a bunch of my chips in with AK on a KTxx board. My opponent didn't know I hand $4 left so he turned his hand over(TT). I was drawing dead and just mucked. Next hand. Straddled for my last $4 dark. Ended up making a flush and was up to $20. Next hand in BB, flopped TP shoved, got two calls and won. Up to $60.Double again AQ v 99, $125ish. Double again AK>AT on AxTKx. $260. Then on a 654 I got into a 3-way raising war with 64. I shoved, guy behind me insta re-shoves. 3rd guy tanks before folding 32 face up. Other guy showed 54. weeeeeeeeee.Cashed out $600.

Play money huplo vs dlingdling so we're taking it mostly serious.I had a feeling his 1/2 pot cbets were weak ish, plus there are a lot of cards I can turn to give me a gutter, oesd or flush draw, so c.c flop seemed best to meTurn lead seemed best as he'll check back at lot of the time, although I wish I had gone with 90River, I want to turn my hand into a bluff bc I have blockers, but he also reps almost nothing so I kind of want to hero call... thoughts??feral_cow_icon.gifConverted by a herd of feral cowsPokerStars Pot Limit Omaha t5/t10 - 2 playersButton: t2,000 BB: t1,717 (Hero)Preflop: (t15) Hero is BB with Qh.gifTs.gif6c.gifTh.gif (2 players)Button raises to t30, Hero calls t20Flop: (t60) 4d.gif9c.gif5h.gif (2 players)Hero checks, Button bets t30, Hero calls t30Turn: (t120) Qd.gif (2 players)Hero bets t75, Button calls t75River: (t270) Kh.gif (2 players)Hero checks, Button bets t270,

I could definitely find a call here. Its pretty much missed fd, hit straights and air here. I think the straight may bet like 2/3rds since your line is more of a weak turn stab. I hero this more often that not...well when I was able to play plo of course!

James,I'm still in the red.Have you reached 8k hands? If so, can you post your graph just so I can see? I'll just go ahead and ship you the $10 tonight.
[ ] has reached 4k hands ;)I am not able to ship on merge it says that option isn't available at this time, but it hasn't been since I deposited. I imagine it's because player-to-player US transfers are being treated as money laundering by the DOJ.I can write you a check if I don't get some hands in the next few days (and thus have your address for stalkaments).
