I'm gonna limit myself to two more NL25 blog posts, so depending on how I do I might journal it for a while. I am messing around a bit in 5 card draw though, so maybe I'll write something up about that. My impression is that the current metagame isn't very evolved, and I grinded some math and ideas that I'm messing around with. I'm still kind of a donkey and make bad calls.
So I decided I was going to try and 12 table today, and I played like crap. I figured I could do it because I used to be able to 12 table FR playing relatively loose. I ran pretty bad but I started running nonsensical bluffs without much thought because I couldn't follow the action fast enough. Here's an idea of how the session went as a result:
Not pretty. The top pots were AQ vs AK on Axx in a 4bet pot (who called my 4bet for the second time) and turning a set and value cutting myself vs a backdoor FD. However, even with those being ignored and the standard EV beats being taken out, a lot of the $6-8 losses were due to not paying attention. I also witnessed myself missing many value bets on various streets, which is absolutely terrible if I'm going to play so many hands. Looking back on that session, I'd have to say I definitely did not have an edge.
Something I didn't think about is the effective hands I'm physically capable of playing. I convinced myself I could play 12 tables because that would equate about about 850 hands/hr, something I used to do without much of a hitch. However, of those 850 hands, I forgot that I am playing 40% of them. Back when I played FR, I would be playing 20% of the 850 hands (effectively 170) and folding the rest. Someone tell me if my logic is wrong, but that would mean the amount mental capacity I have to put into the 850 hands would be effectively the same had I played 1700 hands back in FR. In fact, probably a lot more since the bottom of my range is way harder to play.
If I'm correct here, then I've been making a huge mistake playing the amount of tables I have been, because I think my mental capacity gets maxed out around 150 non-folded hands every hour.
Anyway, none of that is an excuse for me saying that I'm +EV playing 40/30 or whatever, it's just a little theory that seems to make sense to make sense to me. So what I'm going to do is cut down to 6 fast tables. If that's a bit much, I'll try 6 normal tables or 4 fast tables. If for some reason I get totally bored with that, I'll cut down my stats to a more standard 20/16 or so and play 8-12 tables. Maybe I'll alternate between them or something.
I'll make at most two more blog posts at this limit, and then the next ones at NL50 (or a busto blog post). I'll see if I can make a video for you guys too.
And all the sudden there are all these Indian farmers hitting me up constantly for chips, and sending me fake poorly written message in my inbox telling me to confirm my account before it gets suspended/banned.
So I start fucking with them, they have the most broken retarded engrish and they always say the same kind of shit and their logic is ridiculous sometimes. They are constantly railbirding me asking for chips to which I usually reply to show me their tittiestitties as payment.
Anyways, just like fucking with telemarketers on the phone I get a kick out of talking to them and hearing their responses etc. Here is one from today:

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 m sorry but i dont believe a tournament schedule with 100,000 buy ins is huge news for most people. If u can afford that much on a poker tourney good for u but for the average person thats not feasible so its not big news really.
which poker site do you like best?by aces4paul, March 15
I was wondering everyones opinions on diff sites. I like pokerstars overall hands down, full tilt has better freerolls but ps format is much better. I have not seen any others that even compare have you?
A few things that have crossed my mind over the last few days:
1: The Spade.
The Spade is the highest ranked suit in cards and as a result poker sites like to use this for their logos. The 2 main perpetrators are UB and Stars.
In a sort of "cannot be unseen" moment, I would like to bring it to the marketing moguls in both companies that when presented individually and not on a playing card, the spade does infact look a lot like a butt plug.
Exhibit A:
One of these is a butt plug and one is the PokerStars stress toy. One you squeeze in your hand and the other you squeeze somewhere else.
Perhaps a better slogan would be "Lube. Relax. Insert."
2: The BFG.
The Big Friendly Giant is a famous childrens book by Roald Dahl, and there's also a movie of it. When i was a kid this movie was awesome. I watched it last night and it has become frighteningly clear that the BFG is a pedophile.
He exhibits numerous traits associated with the profile of a pedophile:
1: prefers the company of children.
2: preys upon children with a troubled background (Sophie is an orphan)
3: he uses the "magic" of dreams etc to keep Sophie quiet and establish a relationship
When she gets dirty in the movie, she takes a bath and the BFG is visabliy excited. Rather than wash and dry her existing dressing gown he sews her a new dress (classic pedophile trait, using presents to lure the child) this dress is significantly shorter than her pajamas she had and later on in the film you actually get an up-skirt shot as a result.
He makes her drink a strange home-brew, that makes it "feel good deep down in your tummy" and sings a song with lyrics that only draw attention to the anus and genitals.
I wouldnt be surprised is BFG was a registered sex offender and thats why all the other giants had alienated him from giant-society.
3: Going Pro!
Its hard to make a living in poker just by playing the games. One of the best ways a player can make money is through sponsorship. I am probably going to move back to PokerStars, so i have decided to join their "Team Online"
3 movies i would recommend for the bored...by whamm!, March 14
all good movies, korean movie is a "taken" clone but still pretty good. catfish and wasteland are very heartwarming and eye-opening, my daughters watched it with me and they enjoyed it which says a lot since kids these days dont have the patience for movies which are different from the box office stuff out there.
p.s.
adjustment bureau is crap, i guess it's ok to watch with your GF, but only if she is a dumb person lol
Just put in another 4 hr session just now. Started off terribly stacking off like a total monkey. But then I started to play my hands a little better. 4 hrs played, 4377 hands, and up 479.50$ So I'm basically back to where I started all over again before the week started. EV count: running little over 20 buyins under EV, but I sucked out when my sanity was on the line. Hooray for some backdoor action.
One quick question, are you firing the river w pot size bet left vs fish w AKhh on Kc 9h 4h Js 7s ?
Mid term on Tues, studying for a few hours now, got to the 2nd part of the studyguides, and now im like !?!?!?! Putting the same fkn numbers in my calculator and my answers always turn out different wtf.
Why do I do this to myself? Fuk I gotta stop daydreaming in class all the time.
Other than the charity stuff he does, is he not the least likable guy ever. This entire season of HSP all he has done is tell everyone how awesome doyle brunson is.
"doyle beat cnacer when you didnt beat cancer"
"doyle could have been in the nba"
"you weren't getting doyle off that one vanessa"
I listened to a poker road interview by him a while ago and he kept repeating how smart he was and that he didn't have to try hard to do good in school, even though its obvious the guy was a huge nerd. He has probably adjusted to the fact that people know how to play poker now less than anyone else. Every HSP season its the exact same story. Play 6 hands over the course of 5 hours. Win 3 small pots with AA, get bluffed off AA for half his stack, 3 bet with 65s vs loose guy and win a small pot, and get AA in vs some kind of straight flush draw and coinflip because he refuses to run it twice.
KK and QQ are interchangeable with AA in the above example. Barry Greenstein is the only person on earth that could make vanessa selbst my 2nd to last favorite person at a poker table.
Also, my last blog got move off the first page in like 15 minutes last time because 9 people decided to post blogs at the same time as me so read that one too.

lololo cool level mind wars Steal City expected such a comment just not from you
also this is the ROFL thread if you really wanna discuss an obvious thing we can move to another thread
p.s. my comment is somewhat a troll and somewhat quite the opposite, also if i hate on another nation that doesnt make me a nationalist please get your terminology right
You said "incase you wonder why people hate Americans"
Americans, not America. You can claim to say it doesn't mean you don't hate Americans but your sentence more than implies that there a justification for hating Americans. To hate people because of what nation they are from is to be nationalist...
and i dont hate americans, only posted it with such comment coz many people pretend or actually think that they do which is even funnier so apologiez if i offended you, however your comments only make you appear as a person you described
You didn't offend me, I've spent maybe 8 years of my 26 in the US. English was the 3rd language I learned to read and write and I haven't been in the US for about 6 years or so. I have however in europe and asia come across many extremely nationalist people from all countries and it does sicken me as without nationalism and nationalist sentiments things like war and genocide might be unheard of.
You say that I am like the nationalist person I described? Pretty bold statement to make. I gave incredibly logical and well explained reasons to show that it was true for yours and you made no effort to contradict my statements aside from saying you were half trolling. You are calling me a nationalistic or something because I dislike nationalism or is it because coincidentally the people being hated on and generalized with your statement happens to be US people and I hold a US passport? Really, that's a fucked up thing to say such a thing and you don't give any reason as to why... to be honest I think you just realized this little side of you and are projecting.
