Yup people still suck



Pretty much just had to adjust to the greater increase in 3betting and squeezing. Stopped 3betting from the blinds as much because I get called by the BTN a lot. Started increasing my 3betting on the BTN cause people call a lot and give me position. Learned how to fold to these 3bets more often instead of bluffing/calling cause of tilt. Fish are still fish except now they are more aggressive which is actually even better.

Here's a fun hand for yall. I run pretty good sometimes.

Was playing some NL 50 and saw this guy around talking about how bad everyone was on all tables. He was like 27/8 with like 9% 3bet. I was just like w/e I'll get it in with him cause he's short and probably doesn't have shit anyway. Here's the hand.

This is quite a long post but I have a lot on my mind and feel that I should share it with you guys.

I feel that this stage in my poker development I have hit the point in what I call a "poker revelation". What I mean by this is that something in my thought process and understanding of the game started to click and come together to form a more complete overlook on the thought process of the game. When I look back at some of my old posts from years/months ago, I feel like half the stuff I said was completely dumb and incorrect. I'm starting to realize these flaws now.

I remember the first hand I ever posted on this site. I folded some open-ended straight flush draw on a turn getting great pot odds to call and I was convinced I made the perfect play. Once I got flamed by everybody, I realized that I really had some work to do to understand this game better. I continued to post hands and get flamed and started feeling discouraged. I'm not one to back down from a challenge but poker was getting frustrating and harder than I wanted to be. It took me almost a year and a half to beat NL 10 and I just really thought I was a complete failure.

Up into this year, I had also had a huge issue trying to move up in stakes. It wasn't that the stakes we're that much harder, it was just the size of the money led me to believe that I could bluff around more and get away with it. WRONG. I'd just end up spewing like 8-10BI and hating life. Through reading blogs and stories, I noticed that other people go through some of the same issues I did and are not alone, although these may be at various stake levels that are different than my own.

2011 has been a movement toward success so far. For 2009/2010, My roll was basically around 200-500 trying to beat NL 10 forever. This year alone, I've gone over 1K strictly playing NL 25. It's nice to beat a stake in a few months vs. a few years. I've stopped taking up the mentality "I'm a boss. I'm gonna own you noobs" and started taking up the mentality "You aren't good until you've proven you're good". I feel this mentality is a lot better for me because it reminds me that even if I have an edge and am a decent player I have to prove it for others to recognize it as well. No matter how good someone is in theory at their profession/game, they aren't good in comparison to anyone if they don't go out and show it.

Lately I have either been running really good, have gotten a lot better, everyone else just starting sucking more, or a little of all three. Here is my graph for march so far. EV is only about 1/2 a BI below the total amount won.


I would again like to thank all you guys at liquidpoker for all the help you've given me, either through direct hand comments or from observing hand discussions from other people. I also believe the majority of you guys that post here are way better in comment quality and knowledge than a lot of people in the poker world. Lately, I've been checking out 2+2 forums recently and from what I've seen in the micro sections those regs don't know shit. You guys beat them by far imo. Also a big shout out to TalentedTom. I don't know how you come up with the shit you say but every single thing you post is like the most perfect explanation of any hand I've ever seen in my life and I have mad respect for you (no homo).

Anyway's gl liquidpoker with your grinding and thanks for all the help. I can only give so little back except my gratitude

Stopped playing rush poker. Focused more on reads. Fixed my shitty blue line. So far so good this month.



Every time I move up I have this uncontrollable desire to tilt and spew like 7-8 BI. I'm probably just gonna fuck the shit outta NL 25 and over roll for NL 50 so that bankroll won't even be considered a problem when I move up.

I'll see what happens at the end of the month before deciding on what to do. Want to save some money to use for some low SCOOP events as well.

I just updated the most recent version of holdem manager. Every hand I play is saved through the auto import folders and it comes up in my session stat displays. However, the HUD stats that appear on the site have disappeared. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Been doing decently well at NL 25 rush with a little bit of full ring tables mixed in. Everyone is so nit faggot tight I have to resort to getting most of my winnings from blind steals, 3bet steals, and bluffing. I'd honestly like to play tighter, but against these guys I have to play like 23/21 with 7% 3bet to get ANY action. w/e at least I'm up so far even with the NL 50 fiasco incident.

Progress:


Gl with rest of month all.

So I accidentally sat down at an NL 50 6max rush table and I'm like oh shit whoops missed the NL 25 table. I get put on the big blind. I could have played this the smart way and just left and only lost $.50 but I was like naw I'll just bluff this hand win the pot and leave. Then like a fucking retard I do this shit.
