Very confident in my FR game right now, and will probably move to NL200 FR soonish.

(btw, what BR would you recommend starting nl200? 5k?)

Pretty sure my laggier than usual FR style will translate well to 6 max and conversely if/when I do move back to FR it can only help my postflop skills.

I've only watched a few 6max vids like CTS' super agro style, peachy and 1-2 of brian's.

Should I start at NL50 first?

Why does this stuff have to happen?


Very frustrating, input on hands if you think you might play them different too

just for future to look back on, fucking sick bad month










Poker EV is being a bitch, but I was down over 1k in allin equity.. yay.


On the plus side, I got dual 19inch monitors now and my electronics voucher arrived and I bought a 37inch LG LCD TV.. pretty sick, the 360 looks insane.


Won't play again until next year, going away for new years eve..

Ok so I'm cruising along NL100 at a respectable rate, almost 3k BR.

I'm seriously comtemplating grinding it out as an income after my current job finishes up (which is this week).

Queue December, I am working full time - so not many hands this month.

In those 20k hands, I lose 60+% of my BR. No I didn't move up limits or go play HU.. In fact I moved down at about 1.7k to NL50 to ride it out.

Anyway I thought the pics were quite funny, particularly the flop a set/EV.. so may aswell post and have a laugh now that I'm barely rolled for NL50 with 1.25k.
















People don't joke when they say huge downswings are possible, I just really didn't think I could run this bad..

(yes I'm well aware I probably didn't play 100% optimal, but I sure as hell wasn't spewing like a retard.. and actually moved down responsibly - non-showdown winnings are a concern though)

Short vid, only ~15 mins, 22mb. Quality should be fine.

I just moved back down to NL25 after losing too many buyins for my liking.. thought why not make a vid while playing and if anyone watches, get some feedback too.

Oh, no sound so put some music on if you're going to watch.

ty, ty.
