December and live playing
  lazymej, Dec 30 2008

December has been a completely gaylord month pokerwise and I'm break even. Normally I play 40k-45k hands per month but I kind of got fed up and lost motivation halfway into the month. Doesn't help that I bought a PS3 and all kinds of games/blu-ray discs with FPPs since it just drags me even further away from the sessions. It's pretty fun but not really a good investment pokerwise. December was supposed to be a big month for me and I was hoping to win a lot but didn't happen at all.

I played live poker for the first time tonight. It was live, but not brick and mortar. As some of you know, the Montreal Casino has those PokerPro electronic tables. I'd prefer to play with chips and cards of course since if I want to stare at computer screens I can do so at home. But either way it went well! The table I sat at was supeeerrrrrrrrrrr soft. 70% of the table loved to limp and it's unfortunate that most of them were stationy so stealing pots was hard. They were just very fishy (not weak unfortunately) and one or two guys were total donks. So I just nit it up and profit. I'm surprised I managed to play for 2+ hours because whenever I've played "live" before (not for money) I get bored super fast. Maybe it's just because there's no money involved. Also lol @ the kids who rock up there like they're the shit with their sunglasses and they have a quarter of a buyin. And the guy who stares people down every time they make a move like he's even remotely capable of reading their souls. Ended with good results and it was pretty fun I guess.

Happy holidays to you all and gl gl.

Also, Gororok I'm rooting for you to make SuperNova gogogo!

November :)
  lazymej, Nov 28 2008

I permanently moved up from 50nl to 100nl during the weekend so I have been playing it for a few days now. Results have been very pleasing so far. One of my goals for November was to have a +$2k month, and that looked really improbable with the start of the month. I don't know why but at the beginning of the month I always run super bad plus I always find the need to spew money everywhere with fancy play syndrome . So ya, started off the month losing $200 at 100nl and another $550 at 50nl in under 2000 hands which is just lol/slashwrists/killmenowplz.


oh, so brutal



So I was pretty much playing catch-up for the first half/two thirds of the month which was pretty gay. And then the Poker Gods turned my doom-switch off and I started to run good/decent again:


yesplz



So I ended up recovering from my downswing and got out of the red zone and then kept going up till I reached my goal of a $2k month :D I'm pretty proud of myself.



proof



Another goal was to make Platinum Star this month, which will be happening today or tomorrow with 500VPPs left to clear. I was supposed to get this last month but I barely played at the end of the month so I didn't make it. I will get it 110% for sure this month.

Oh ya and I just played my biggest winning session so thats nice too. Ship it.

lol day
  lazymej, Nov 27 2008



Well I just finished playing a monster 6 hour session 6 tabling. I haven't played that long of a session/day in sooo long because I've just been slacking off. Well it started good and then went to hell. The first decent part you see is the first session (I played 2). The rest of it which is an erratic spaztic cocktail was the 6 hour session and ya swings lol. I actually played pretty fucking bad and I was getting the monies in the middle like a retard so I kind of deserve the swings. I don't know why I was spewing so much today but I need to remind myself not to. Anyways, it ended happy and I went in the green. $3/hr fuck yeah. It was kinda fun though I guess.

But I don't mind much at all because I was mostly going for VPPs because I want platinum this month. After today that is going to happen easily. So ya I'll just play normally next time not like an idiot and I will reach Platinum pretty easily before month end. And I should have better results

100NL revisited
  lazymej, Nov 23 2008

Well I started playing 100nl with a big fat roll and I just played a ~3 hour session. Of course I run super fantastic whenever I move up so I got insta ass-raped at the beginning and lost like 2 BI (I had made 3BI at 50nl earlier today) so I was down like -$50 for the day. But I stuck with it and grinded it out. The regs are definitely a lot different here than at 50nl. They're a lot more aggressive for one and you also get all kinds of loose floaty types. Besides running massively under expectation, I'm fairly happy with the session, not thrilled because I made 1 or 2 pretty bad mistakes. But I did end up a buyin so that's nice. I'm confident I can handle 100nl for now.

Here's my day graph:



It's 50nl up until like hand 400. It's 100nl where the graph starts decending and get super fucking swingy. The first cliff downward was me getting it in with top set vs a lower set and the guy hit a backdoor flush lol. But ya as you can see the EV line I could be richer :D

Help: Non SD Winnings
  lazymej, Nov 13 2008

Here is my lifetime graph:



Here is my graph for the past 2 months:



Do my non-SD winnings look normal? Does it indicate giant leaks? I don't know what to make of this because I've seen people with similar red lines and some people with breakeven and even winning red lines over large samples. Thoughts/help/advice please?

November so far
  lazymej, Nov 03 2008

I took a +/- one week break from poker. Played 2 sessions this month, around 700 hands in total. Result - brutal downswing. It's that time of month. I seem to run like absolute dog shit at the beginning of every month. But I guess it's also in part due to sub-optimal playing.

Was a bit discouraging but I plan to grind it out and focus on playing super good. Aiming to make 2K+ this month.
