can anyone help me find find music that can be applied to
"Don't listen to music with lyrics, a definite beat, a catchy melody, or one of your favorite pieces. Research on productivity with music versus without music is inconclusive. If you think you need music, perhaps to help block out external background noise, choose some with no lyrics and with relatively monotonous melodies."
i been listening to energetic black music with lyrics i dont know if its unconsciously effecting me or not.
dont wanna make a main forum topic for this, thanks
played some microstakes
JYang, Mar 17 2008
been a while since i played micros for a while. one of my buddies is having trouble there so i decide to give it a shot and see whats the fuzz about. so i 6 tabled for a while. havin plenty of fun playin microstakes again, miss these games.
the play is still weak i dont know wtf most ppl are talkin about how cardrunners changed even the micros.
myth: people are 3betting a lot at 25nl
fact: no they arent, they still show up JJ+, AK+ majority of the time
myth: TAGs are in every game
fact: yea they have 20/16 stats or similar. just play them in position and their hands are pretty faced up postflop... their range is well defined so play accordingly. they are like low variance but some easy preflop and flop spots they'll know how to get it all in so they are doin something right.
adjustin to high 3betting frequencies...
the easiest way is to kinda like tighten up, u could play like 16/12. then 3bettin u is like suicide. expect lower winrates but u'll make up for it by being able to play more tables.
also about flop betting. dont bet every flop. like if u have A7 on J96 2 tone u can just give up the pot if u dont have good reads. just making the game harder. do bet every flop vs those "TAG"s because they are autopiloting.
look for spots to take down pots w/o showdown esp against regulars. its so ezzzzzz. i ran 30bb/100 (not pt) @ saw showdown = false.
vs fish its more unpredictable, but u can valuetown them all day. dont have to do any marginal stuff with $ involved. watch MasterLJ's videos on playin against the fish if u wanna maximize ur edge. but even the fish master had trouble vs some of them. they are so unpredicably bad and the easiest way is to really wait for hands. I love masterLJ's videos on playin vs the fish, very interestin and funny. this guy beats them for a living.
u might think im on a heater but i did took down 30bb/100 worth of no showdown pots vs those tags. and i had a rivered set valuetownin me and also a KK(me) vs AA for -$25.
running pretty well overall for this month
im actually up on my EV adjusted
ship plz ^______^
runnning i dunno good or not
JYang, Mar 15 2008
the fact that i managed to play 31k hands during midterm weeks (4 midterms, all major classes lol) is pretty good i assume.
i give up on playin video games as it seems. spent a few days on oblivion and need for speed pro street on my new pc. the graphics were good, not the super good type shown on on box arts or wallpapers =(. just search for some of the need for speed pro street screenshots on google, i have everything on highest with 4x AA on 1650x1050 and its not as good as the screenshots other ppl posted. oblivion is diff story as its released few years ago.
so this month stats,,,
stopped playing and decide to make a blog post since i just got downed 2k$ from noon. i flipped a coin to see if i should study for my last midterm tommorow or keep playin, but the coin results showed that i need to study =(.
-------------------
can't wait till next week. i actually made a schedule for my poker hours and stuff so i could stop procrastinating. need to put my hours in, gettin over $30+/hr on rakeback. fuck profits ^_^
need supernova elite. not even 100k vpp yet, shows how much i been slacking off.
a meh wek
JYang, Mar 08 2008
2 midterms, tons of video games since my new pc, and the stats are out
---------
obv playin on 400nl with shitty winrate is still a lot of $. lol. guess thats a good reason to move up. u dont barely need 1/2 the winrate to make lots of dough at 400nl.
i got a wireless keyboard also. i dotn get how some ppl live with it. when u type in #s sometimes there is lots of lag and every chance for a mistake it has lots of $ involved. meh.
also i was plannin to play and prolly finish elder scrolls oblivion but i heard its gonna be so -EV because it takes soooooo much time =/
lol. so many pointless stuff i wanna do are -EV now because poker is just mucho $$$$$$$$$$$ =/
also... no more lag!!!!!!!! i havent had any issue of lag from database or poker clients since new pc. so ship it. runnin on vista 64bit also
def goin to be playin a ton next week. takin other ppl's advice and workin out so i can increase my stamina for long poker sessions. just think about it. just 10k hands a day at 2ptbb/100 could make me a miwwionaire in no time.
zomg
ship
it
plz
not sure if i wanna get a treadmill or a bike. but i ordered some pushup bars from amazon for $20. dont wanna spend on expensive things w/o considerin all the options.
EV Question help plz
JYang, Mar 06 2008
if u risk $1 to win $2, and ur chances of winning is 50%
whats ur EV in terms of $
im not sure if its $0.50 or $1
currently i think its .50 because
50% * $2 = 1,
less 50% * $1 = .50
= .50
so if we flippin coins in this matter i think my EV is 50 cent, is that correct?
EDIT: Trying to find EV per flip if topic is a bit badly worded
new pc benchmarks
JYang, Mar 05 2008
ship it
on another note, postin pics of setup and stuff prolly tommorow. got midterms and stuff and need to sleep
stoploss and stars is gay
JYang, Mar 01 2008
rofl im a nit. cant play no more tonight. too many suckouts
pretty worried about game quality on stars. every table seem to have about 3 shortstackers that at least know what they are doin.
yesterday i was around same EV according to holdem manager, up $3500 and EV adjusted to $3500. and after holdem manager released this crap i kept goin 1 day big win, next day down much EV, etc etc. small variance but cant keep consistancy, at least my monthly results show lots of consistancy. meh.
probably playin bad after gettin sucked out and losin all flips. so takin an early quit tonight. i can sleep while down some $, i dont care =D
yesterday i told myself, lets goooooo for supernova elite. now im back to my old opinion. fuck supernova elite, all it matters is game quality. chasin for SNE while playin in fucked up games is not worth it.
February wrap up!
JYang, Feb 29 2008
Today is double VPP day so i played 8.5k hands.. i cant play more or i'd be goin insane. poker isnt like any other jobs obv. gotta focus every second. lol
this month is pretty harsh. i went on a 30k breakeven stretch at beginnin of month. and i just got out of a 20k breakeven stretch tonight. lol. i think thats the reason i didnt get 100k hands this month. i dont play when i think im playin bad or tilting
Today's Stats
this month total
using a 27% rakeback method.. i should be up around $14300. but i think the % should be higher but i'll be more conservative with the calculation. =]
This year
Hope i can get to supernova elite so i can have 50%+ rakeback. i still play too much on FTP i think im goin to stop and achieve SNE.
i pay too much in rake
profits + rakeback = $30k+
ship it!
HoldemManager EV thing...
JYang, Feb 27 2008
