i love poker...since april ive been struggling but so far this month has been going great...2 outers/3 outers up the ass...apparently its a good move to c/shove QQ on a T high board when you were og aggressor, cus its obv that you will river a Q to beat AA and TT...floating 22 on 338 board is another +ev play and my favorite is c/ring AK on K39 type boards that have no draws...def going to make money doing shit like that as well as hero calling 44 with overs all over the board...jesus christ i hate this game
So ive spent most of the month playing 200nl and i broke even...not sure what to make of that other than that i suck. 200nl has been a bit of an eye opener for me, though i still think alot of the players there are fucking terrible (im proly just worse lol). I got crapped on alot, but i also did alot of stupid things and the more i keep playing the more i realize i have so much to learn. I def need to work on my game. So i will be dropping back to 100nl for awhile. I dont really need to jump up as i feel really comfortable right now at 100nl and i can continue to build my roll and withdraw money at the same time. Im also almost supernova
Once i hit nova ill be buying bonuses to help boost my br. From what ive heard the concierge service is only slightly better than the 100k bonus as far as fpp goes and tournies can suck my balls for the moment...
On another note i just got a hold of my soccer team's new uniform. Lol funny shit. We will not now be called Las Tortugas for nothing lol...
So basically this month started off not so good, but after coming back from the downswing at the beginning i took my first foray into 200nl and everything was going stellar until this last wed.
One thing ive come to re-realize is that playing while exhausted is a bad idea, especially if youre thinking of moving out of your parents house and have zero desire to get a real job, but you still suck at poker lol...no bueno...now im back to 100nl, which i didnt spend that much time there to begin with, but i have yet to put in that many hands since as im still kind of reeling from the downswing. Guess i cant maintain a heater indefinitely...
Despite what i said in my last post, i have already quit my job, but it was pretty -ev anyways as i made $8/hr working as a cart attendant at target lol cleaning restrooms and getting carts obv, where i made about 200 every two weeks...sick life foo...at this point i honestly cant see myself getting a real job anymore as i feel there is easy money to be made even for a fish like myself...i just need to reign myself in, maintain better eating and sleeping habits and continue to play and try to improve...i dunno man, better luck next time?
Ok, so ive already made a few blogs about my progress this month, but i figure since its over and im not playing any more tonight, id put this up. Most of it was pretty much 50nl fr, though i did play 25nl fr, 50nl 6max, and at the end about 600 hands of 100nl fr.
Back in december i placed well enough in some sngs (some of which were out of my br lol) and by the end of the month i was rolled to play 25nl. ABout a week after i was rolled for 25nl i went to a casino with some friends and i didnt lose much, but i was doing wierd things, like raising A9o utg, and so i started to play fr online rather than 6max in order to improve my game (and im told its less swingy).
Late Jan i started playing 50nl cus i was sorta rolled for it and my buddy syntax was calling me a br nit for not taking shots at it. It didnt go too well and i had to drop down until a week into feb when i got fed up and started playing 50nl again and thats pretty much what ive been playing for the month.
As can be seen on the graph i had two large downswings. Obv its mostly bad play, but for the last two days ive been running very well and i also made my bonus so my br is up, but now im being told to jump up again to 100nl and start taking shots, but im still a pretty horrible player. I dunno though. Am i just running well, or have i improved? Ive started reading some poker books, which is something i didnt do before and im trying to analyze my hands more and i do get some advice from other players, but i still do some pretty dumb things. I do appreciate some of the comments by other players and would def appreciate some more.
I dunno. I think ive improved, but i fear my progress has pretty much just been me on a heater. Im going to start taking shots at 100nl, but i think this might be a bad idea.
