HangukMiguk 8 Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 I suck at NL, so I have no choice but to get super-aggressive with big draws and shit. But I'm still supremely confident I'll hammer this game over the next month. I got my money in pretty good most of the time. I don't think I really made any big mistakes. But if I win a few deep-stack races in a row, I'll be alright.Who am I kidding? I want to die...I've been there in demoralizing Stud sessions before I learned the importance of BR management.I remember one night where I was literally on the floor of my closet on the verge of throwing up, I was so sick over my session.

Loudmouthed 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 GODDAMMIT. FOR THE SECOND FRIGGING TIME...This post would have made sense six pages ago, had my connection not completely shat the bed the moment I hit the Send button to post... go 2 my myspace page Did it. Added you. What compels you to hang out with, well, us?Well, I know for sure that ISAP. The last tournament win I had was over a year and a half ago, and I won two tournaments in less than 72 hours, totaling $1860. I pissed through that after cashing out $1000 and haven't won a tournament yet.My current hourly rate is something like -$1.64/hr. It's like I play to lose. I also nominate myself for ISAP's Unluckiest Bloke. I lost two NLH hands with KK, once to runner-runner inside straight draw. I lost with AA to running flush cards. In spots where I've held AK this week and it's been a coin flip, I've lost the flip nine of nine times.I'll play anything, anywhere with anyone. I've lost all momentum, though.

Shimmering Wang 1 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I've been there in demoralizing Stud sessions before I learned the importance of BR management.I remember one night where I was literally on the floor of my closet on the verge of throwing up, I was so sick over my session. Interesting. I had a similar experience, except I just had a lot of beers, a random skank was sleeping in my bed and didn't want to nail me, so I just ripped a blanket off my bed and slept in my closet. Also, I puked a little.A while back, I took a shot. I put about half my roll on the line to play a 5/10 NL game. I played bad, but finally flopped a hand. Down 450 from 2K, I ended up getting my money in with 99 on a 9hTh3c flop. My opponent called with JhQh, and I was drawing dead on the turn when the 8h slid off. Man. This thread is great. A few minutes ago I capped 2 separate streets with AK, no pair. I lost to a flopped set of Aces. Poopie.Wang Link to post Share on other sites
scottyno 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 ISAP in December. I dropped $250 in a 2/4 game on FT. I have AK, and have KKK22 at the turn. We get all the money in, I'm planning on the chop unless villian has quad ducks. Jack drops. Now, villian apparently has KKKJJ at the river. FT software mistakenly interprets this as a better hand than KKK22. Whoosh! Why would anyone play on the internet?I call BS on this actually happening, if it really did you would have got your money back once you contacted support with the HH.

RabidTortuga 0 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 By the way, joining up has done wonders for my game. My online bankroll is up to $39 bucks (from $26 three days ago) playing .05/.10.I played a home game tournament and cash game tonight. Took down the 22 person winner take all tournament for $1100. Added on another $542 playing the cash game (1/2NL no max).Of course, all of that money is going to pay off bills and Christmas presents, but it's nice to be winning again.I owe it all to ISAP!

CobaltBlue 662 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I call BS on this actually happening, if it really did you would have got your money back once you contacted support with the HH.I may be wrong, but my guess would be that "mistakenly" should've been in sarcastic quotes.As for my ISAPage, I ran at +$600/hr for the first 7 hours of the month. I then ran -$880/hr for the next 4 hours. And I've run at +$90/hr for the following 8 hours. SHLHE can be nauseating. Link to post Share on other sites

Dogpatch 2 Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I just up and downed on the .02/.04 LHE on FCP. It's a pretty loose/passive table. Lots of calls PF and lots of folds to flop bets. Was running over it till another aggressive player showed up. Tried not to tie up with him but he was hell bent on raising my blinds. I should've let it go but I felt I had to get back into it so I played back at him and called down some garbage I knew I shouldn't have. Ended up 2BB up for the day. gg me. Was 15BB up at one point.

Shimmering Wang 1 Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Cwoss Pos-Billed:Shimmering Wang's Night (in a nutshell):Playing in a 1/2 NL game, I buy in for 200. First orbit, I pick up AhKh in MP. I raise to 10. I receive 3 calls behind me, and the BB calls.Flop: ThJh3x. I check, and the hyper-bad aggressive player behind me bets 35. Fold. Call. Fold. I push for like 150 more. Bettor folds. Caller thinks, and calls. He shows 89Turn 9River blank.I lose.I rebuy and play like a maniac until I'm up to about 420ish. I open raise on the button to 10 with KdKx. BB reraises to 30. I make it 90. He instapushes having me covered, and I call.He rolls his eyes, and says "nice hand." He then tables AdJd.Flop 2 4 6rTurn ARiver blank and I'm dead.200 more. I'm down to about 150.I raise to 10 in the HiJack with AQo after one limper. BB calls, limper calls. Flop A 7 3r.I fire my standard pot-sized continuation bet of 30 dollars. Limper calls.Turn 8.Limper checks, I bet 50, limper calls.River 4Limper checks, I bet 50, limper moves in for like my last 12 dollars. I puke and call.Limper shows A4. I smile and muck, then go masturbate furiously in the bathroom, then have 20 drinks at the bar, then decide I'm going to rob a liquor store on the way home.I rebuy for 200, and win a few pots, up to 300.Wang raises to 12 UTG with AsQs. 3 calls, including the SB.Flop: 8TJ with 2 spades. I bet 40. MP player calls. LP player raises to 110. I push. MP player thinks and folds. LP player thinks and calls, with barely fewer chips than I've got. "I'll gamble!" He shows 9h6s. Turn is the 6 of diamonds, river is a board-pairing blank, and I lose again.I have 20 dollars left.Somebody raises, I hate myself and announce a blind all-in. Raiser laughs and calls, showing 9To.I have QT.Flop brings a 9, and I lose buy-in number 4.5ish.I expose my shrunken penis to everyone at the table, and shout hideous invective softly to myself as I leave the casino and drive home.Go.

RabidTortuga 0 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Made a little over 8 bucks on the micro's last night/this morning. Bankroll is building slowly.On a more exciting note, the wife and I just booked vacations for the upcoming year. San Diego in May, first time in California.Vegas, baby! August 12th, staying at the Green Valley Ranch (she picked, she wanted to be off the strip since we were at the Bellagio earlier this year.) Can't wait!
