since my bankroll was up to 3k i decided to take a shot at 100 nl and 3/6 limit



my 100nl shot went really well coz i game selected really good looking for huge fish and when they busted i just left the table. i was playing 6 tables of 3/6 and 1 100nl table for fun. which turned out to be really profitable!

well i got crushed in 3/6 limit, made a grand total of negative $29 over 10khands sigh. was messing around too much with the regulars and some of them are terrible but some of them are really good i learnt alot. must have been funny for them to see this guy come out of nowhere making all sorts of crazy plays. apparently they were having none of it and snapped called my bs up lol.

anyway apparently in limit alot of players have 0bb at the lower stakes and 1bb is considered good, as rakeback is around 3bb. so im technically at 3bb now. for alot of players, the money they make comes from rakeback, which i will get soon when i reach 100kfpp points. anyway, i gained 60k fpp points this week so just 30k more points rofl. i have been mass playing and i should really stop playing poker for the moment.

heres one hand for all u miniraisers out there

and by 2/4 i mean LIMIT 2/4 so if your impression of limit is "lol limit sucks" just stop reading the blog now bye have a nice day!

of course im not sucidial enough to go into nl400 anytime soon. playing limit i jumped from gold star to plantinum in ONE DAY from 2/4. and limit has helped ALOT with my post flop play. this graph is over 2 days and i made $800. yesterday played 3k hands and ended up 700. today i woke up and played so shitty so a total of $86 was made over 5k hands.

im actually loving limit now. no big decisions, tables are very fast and at most u lose 1 big bet in a decision. and i cant rmb how many times i have value betted my paired garbage on all 3 streets only to be looked up by AK AQ KQ etc i.e i have 92 o a 24479 board, or check raised river/turn with my made hands and the donk just blindly cbets into me. then calls my reraise. So hilarious lol, there are ALOT more fish in limit.

anyway my bankroll is now 2.3k. last week it was 1k. yay me!

got really bored with NL so decided to mess around in limit. i have a personal friend i knew from the starcraft days, who plays the highest limit games online eg 30/60 50/100. he sent me his stats and i got the shock of my life. his vpi in 6max was 40-50% and he was a big winner over a large sample size. he says its because his post flop play is extremely good and talked to me abit about his style, which got me curious and wanting to try it out. i obv couldnt hit 40-50% vpip, i did manage to hit around 28% which is a huge jump from my 18% vpip nl stats.



obv went well lol
i found my post flop game has improved by SOOOOOOOOO much since the last time i played limit and im sooo aggresive now. played 9 tables of 6 max 1/2 for about 3 hours. i might actually be really good at limit. and my ffps soared up like crazy and i reached gold star.

stars roll back up to 1.1k lol
700 on donk site

poker is looking good for me =) !

the statistically impossible happened today. i was DEEP with ACES. Shoved preflop 3 times. Lost to KK, QQ, JJ. They all made a set. lol?!?!?! funny, cause this only happenes when i am 200bb deep. i just emailed support(this did not happen at stars, at the fucking "12yearold made this software" site.. )

my bank roll was up to 2k mid day but now its down to 1.5k. fucking riduclous day. every time i say "ok 1 more hour then ill do my assignment" i end up losing to a riduclous suck out, a fish has my money and i keep playing to try and eventually and get it back, which happens most of the time. i wait PAITENTLY for my fucking hands playing 14/14, WITH HIM RUNNING 88/40, shove PF with AA, and get owned. JESUS CHRIST

everything i earned from good plays and making great calls (like this hand http://www.liquidpoker.net/mytlnet/myhand.php?view=item&id=519911) gets fucking destroyed. "thats poker" "gotta gamble so its fun" FUCK YOU THATS WHAT

yayaya everyone has their bad beat day. i dun give a flying fuck when i lose to random suck outs. once, twice, 10 times, 20 times. whatever, i just shrug it off and know that they will pay me off later. but this is not called variance. its called fucking doom switched.

of course im whining like a little bitch to feel better about it so dont tell me to just take the bad beats in my stride coz the point of this post is just to let out the anger. first losing day this month.these are only stars hands.



ill still up 400$ in 2.5 days on that donk site when i should be easily at 800$.
and now is a good time to take a break and focus on my work which i havent done at all since 2 days ago. positive reframe ftw.


oh this is a huge leak i have. i can never get away with from these two type of hands. and these are reraised pots im talking about.

situation 1: flop comes rags. I have an overpair (jj-qq), im getting the money in cause i put him on tp or some fd or sd. he ends up with a higher over pair.

situation 2: flop comes rags. I have an overpair (aa-kk), im getting the money in cause i put him on a lower overpair or tp. he ends up with a set.

how do you play these hands? if you reraise he shoves if he has a lower overpair or a set. how can you identify his hand and get away from it? i thought it was stats but this fucking 9/8 guy raised utg with 88.board came k84o and i had aces, reraised and he shoved.

these 2 situations are where i lose the huge majority of my money.

so i realised that im playing a massive amt of hands but not getting any rakeback at stars. so ill try taking a bonus at another site and took out 300 out of my 1.1k stars roll.

and omfg its grown to 700 in one day, bringing my br to 1.5k. the software is a complete joke (it looks like some high school student made the interface and avatars) but thgere are so many fish its unbeleivable. nl50 here is like nl5 at stars. plenty of active tables and average pots are 20-33bbs. so pt doesnt work there but whatever

i wonder how much i could have made if i started here instead of stars. of course im not improving only in the sense that i can own fish even harder now. and im bored to death palying 4 tables and writing this blog at the same time but winning in one day what u take 3-4 days to struggle and earn makes it all wroth it.

edit: i did have my fair share of incredible suckouts whiuch is always the case when playing with donks so its not that im on a heater, there are just too many fish

morale of story is: there is life outside of stars

i know its nothing compared to the better players on this site, but nevertheless this is a milestone for me and im really happy! i started playing on stars 2 weeks ago with $70bucks and i have been playing alot! 30k hands maybe.

started today with $840 and 9 tabeled for like 8 hours. pt3 didnt work today so i had to pay extra attention to the tables. of course the suck outs were plentiful with the most retarded hand being me QQ opening pf to $2 flop comes 776r. i pot, donk calls. turn is 8. now my read based on how fast he called the flop is this donk is on a wk str draw so i overbet $24(his remaining stack) into the $10 pot. Of course the retard calls and the river comes an 8. and his hole cards are 8 10o giving him trips. perfect read perfect play fucking riduclous result.

anyway i can beat nl25 and nl50 now and im really happy about that. did some thinking the other day to fix my leaks and it has been smooth sailing all the way. not as awesome as dragonzplay but im not complaining. so i have been opening 1-2 tables of 50nl when my br hit 800 and omg there are some ridiculous fish which you dont even see at nl25! i have been selecting games very carefully and i think thats the #1 important thing to always do.

so i can play 50nl now with 20 buyins and i hope like lachlan, one day soon i can do a 10k boom bankroll post. i would put up graphs but PT3 isnt working with the new stars update atm, and my database is in build 2 and not beta 17

for now, im going to take a break and go back to my studies.

p.s i did try posting some 'advice' on the forums and got totally owned. ouch! im not whining, they have a point and are better players than i am for sure so i guess my thinking just isnt as advanced as them yet. so i shall only give 'advice' in the stakes ive beaten from now on.

I earn more that double in my sb then what i earn on my button. omg SMALL BLIND GOD.

lol this is hilarious.
over a decent sample size of 20k hands too

as always, comments on my stats are much appreciated



its truly a sad day when the site earns over twice the amount i do

anyway i have been stuggling thru nl25 and today i earned 8 buyins not because i got any better but because there were so many donks. heres my nl25 graph so far



would be great for the nl25 stars players who know me to comment on my play

one of my biggest leaks is not being able to get away from overpair AA/KK vs a set. I can just NEVER fold And because i have a crazy aggressive image alot of times people stack off with me with TP.

and with that i start my poker break. gf coming over from sg and then i have to work on my thesis. and im going to sch to tutor in 1 hours time. sigh wish i had more time
