EVILGENIUS 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 I am a winner 80% of the time first 1-3 hours i play(sometimes more but 1-3 is consistent). I would be a rich man(joke) if I could walk once I doubled my 60 buck buy in (1/2 limit in florida up to 4 bucks rake at the kennel club)but I figure that I can't leave a good situation. Then i kind of hover around the same mark and slowly I begin to give my money away. I think part of it is that I don't get much action for my good hands as the table realizes that I don't stay in or raise without a good hand. Tight aggressive predujice? I have considered moving tables after awhile but never do. I have begun to show some bluffs to plant the fact that not all my hands I win are solid (i don't like to show cards).I play pretty much exclusivly b&m now(i just plain like it more and do so for the knowledge that I can play with some good players and win, i do like fish too and making money is the indicator that I am winning)It kind of pisses my off that I seem to lose after doing so well for so long. I got up today with 54 bucks profit and went to the gym after 3 hours of playing(i know thats 27bb or 9bb and hour and very good). I am planning on keeping my sessions shorter but its hard to leave what was a extremely profitable situation.Any advice or critiques? Most my pots are medium size and I seem to hover around waiting for the next big pot that I connect with. Am i tilting? Link to post Share on other sites
DCSports92GSR 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 First, you can't beat the rake in that game. Seccondly, any game like that is going to have EXTREME variance. Thirdly, maybe you get your stack up and start poking around in pots you shouldnt even be in. Fourth, maybe you get tired and lose focus.A game like that COULD be profitable in the long run, but expect extreme swings. Link to post Share on other sites

You make a few bucks and start to see more hands.Mistake., your at a cash table., not a tourny. Link to post Share on other sites

EVILGENIUS 0 Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 I am usually the tightest player at the table and pride myself on not chasing unless pot odd/implied odds dictate it(sometimes will fudge the requirements if I sense weakness). People always comment on my not playing many hands. 20-25% sounds about right but i've folded 15 in a row before(without live poker tracker I can't tell). I have had to force myself to make steal attempts (leak)because I know I can use my image to win some(especially a preflop raise with a high card on board against certain non fish players who have seen my tightness for awhile).I can admit to losing focus after awhile and playing more hands than I should and chasing more when I haven't had a hand in forever. Also I don't usually drink but will have a beer after doing well for awhile. (i know stupid) Link to post Share on other sites
