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

got absolutely destroyed today; hit my 4bi stop loss3b/5b 99 vs a 40/35 25% 3b and 4b monkey; he had AK and won that fliplost QQ to KK sb vs co vs a reg, so I think even at 10nl its standard as Ive tried to get away from getting QQ in pre vs most regs as they're too nittyspewed a stack early with A4 vs AJ where I 3b light and c.c flop and turn where I should fold the turn for sure and prob should fold flop as the villain had been very passive post-flop; despite a 65 vpipfolded KK pre-flop and was right (both villains had AA; I cold 4b and folded fml)had to bet fold tp on the turn a few times but I really enjoy my ability to be stuck and frustrated and find that fold buttonso meh, tough day (#firstworldproblems) its beautiful today tho so def gonna go get some fresh air.

+$500 at 1/3 Friday night. Had a very interesting hand/situation happen.There's a limp, and I limp in with 43cc. Tight guy behind me makes it 25 and gets 4 callers so I call also. Flop is 3x5c6c. Checked to me, and before I act the tight pfr shoves allin for 150-ish. Do we lead here, or check? If somebody calls his shove do we flat or shove over the top?

He's got a hand he's not folding... and I'm pretty sure his action is binding... not much sense in leading (for more than $75 anyhow) since all you do is take away options from yourself. I'd probably check-iso shove.

One of the biggest things I hate about how live poker...Showdown between two players.Player A turns over the nuts.Player B looks down at his hand, then over at Player A's hand, and then at the board. This goes on about 3 or 4 more times. Finally, he folds.GRRRRR!!!

It is obvious that Player B is on another level. They are balancing their slow rolling range.

Sign, I sux0rs. It was ruled his action would be binding if I checked. I opted to lead for 80. He mucked and I got 1 called. 3x turn went c/c. Same with Qx river. Villain had J8cc. Sigh.

All my US poker peoples,Going to Showboat in AC Sept 27th to see Rise against. Harrahs doing a promo where they are giving away 2 free rooms in Sept to ANY Total rewards member (Sun - Thurs) so I will be staying at least that night. Not sure if money will be in a good place by then to play some LOL live but will see. Just thought I'd spread the news about the promo to anyone in the AC area who might wanna hang with the crazy e-Ninja.As an aside / standard bitching.Reason money might be bad (besides FT hating me) is I'm pretty underpaid ATM doing $40-$50 an hr work for $12 a book hour, but since I have a cap but need to work more hours than that to superman that ish done. Sigh life. Anybody know somewhere that needs freelance Django/J2EE developers? :club: On paper i only look mid level but I'm pretty 1337 in a ton of areas for being in my 20's.Also, i find it impossible to concentrate playing online now. I have a tendency to sit down and try to spiderman every hand. It's fun though, and loses slower than I'd expect.

August goals30k handsGet my roll up to 20 buy ins for 10NL and start playing that.
[x] 30k hands[x] Enough roll for 10NLGraph goes up, after a fashionAug11.jpgNot overly impressed with my graph or win rate this month. Being more proactive about switching round from made tables rather than just trying to profit from a table running super nitty which seemed to help a little. Thanks to the promo stars was running this month I made platinum star, hopefully combined with moving up to 10NL next month means I can earn some decent bonus money.TotalPoker: $32.35Bonus etc: $10= $42.35September goals30k handsWin some money consistantly.

I've gotten my ass handed to me the last 2 months, but I'm pretty much gonna gurillantee that I crush August. Like F it in the A so hard that October feels it.
Glad to have a winning month after the last 2. Made a ton of improvements in my game. My subscription to DC is over in 2 weeks, but I have a bunch of series downloaded still to watch, so I won't be renewing right away. Also started doing this little filter/leak finder thingy in PT3 at least once or twice a week now that's been helping me a lot, and makes reviewing hands less tedious for me.fRIFIc96-InWRVHzmaGH.pngAlso apparently, I had quads 28 times this month. That helps.
