Welcome Lp.net. Since this is the first post for my blog I'll introduce myself a bit and how I got into poker.
My name is Tere Here. I started playing poker with my friends in grade 9 to 12. Funny thing was I hated poker. I really hated how long it took and how we would do it instead of going and looking for girls. The weekend would roll around and instead of doing something in the world, we would be cooped up in a friends house playing poker.
Plus I hated the fact that I would lose money. Even though I hated poker, and I never got good at it, I learned something about it. I learned that I could win whenever I really wanted to. With the right amount of patience, and simple knowledge of ABC poker, you could outlast your opponents who would make mistakes because of their lack of patience / discipline. The problem was, because I hated poker so much I never really wanted to stay around long enough to win. I won here and there, and although it felt easy enough, I never actually could sit down and do it.
Fast forward to summer 2006. In summer 2006 I met AntonChan who introduced me to Talentedtom. I moved away from tourny poker and went into cash games.
In september 2006 I had about 1000$ in my bankroll which I built it up from messing around at sit n goes from the summer. With that 1000$ I played 50NL until I hit around 2500 and moved up to 100NL. I stayed at 100NL from October to December until my bankroll reached 5500. I then moved up to 200NL. From December to near the end of January, I had a good enough system that made me win at 200NL.
My bankroll at this time had reached 9700. Close to the 5 digit number but not quite.
Then something bad happened. I believe it just had somethign to do with life tilt. On Jan 27th 2007 my bankroll fell from 9700 to 1500 as I lost 2700 at 200NL and isntead of quitting moved up to NL400 where I proceeded to lose another 4000. I moved down to NL100 and continued to lose.
In the end I was at 1500.
In February I gathered myself together and grinded NL50 till I was at 2000. I grinded NL100 till I was at 4000 and moved to NL200.
Yesterday, my bankroll was at 6800. Today it is back down to 4300.
A look at my graphs (50NL-200NL) are usually a straight diagonal up and to the right except at the beggining. It's like I learn how to play after the beginning and I start winning. That is, until Jan 27th. Since that day, my play has been attrocious. And I dont even know how before that date how I was capable of winning money at 200NL.
I am making this blog because I would love help from fellow 1/2 NL players or higher. I just don't understand the leaks in my game.
When I win it seems like I have to play short sessions around 500-1000 hands.
But if I were to lose a buyin within the first 500 hands, I'll stay there, making the session longer than my short sessions...But then instead of gettin back to break even and over, I will tend to get close to break even, fall back down and then hover down 3 buyins, back to break even, back down maybe even 5 buyins, back to break even,
but never over...then I will end up givin up, either down 10 buyins or more or I will luckily have hit break even...
In other words, if I lose a buyin early, I will just lose and play really long until I give up down 10+ buyins...
But if I win a buyin early, I don't play any longer. If I do, I end up losin that buyin and end up in one of my long losing sessions...
What makes no sense to me is that I saw one of Capaeno's graphs at NL200 and for 3000+ hands he just steadily rose.
Where as I can only steadily rise for 500-1000 hands. Any more and You have a graph going everywhere...
Capano's graph tells me its not bad luck that is owning me, its actually my play...
This is my first post and immiediately after this one I will analyze my most recent session which saw me going from 6800 to 4300...
Below I've attached my NL200 graph to give you an idea of how I run at NL 200...

i remember playing with you on nl50, i thought you were just a standard player coming from lower grounds
sick that you've had a BR of 9700 and had to rebuild so much
my only recommendation is to just play sessions of always the same time span, like 1,5 - 2 hours and never go very far up and below. take brakes where you go do some other stuff for like 30 min and then start a new session if you feel like playing alot. it saves me from big swings at least up to nl100. |

You spew hardcore from what I've seen. My boy actionDJ sent me a hh of a hand played between you two today and you called 3 streets with JJ on some 9-Q-9-7-T. There is a fold button on this software, and there are times to use it.  |

Reading through this post it doesn't look like you have a solid aim with poker and that doesn't help the fundamentally flawed angle you take on the game. To be honest, from reading this introduction I could get the feeling you're the type of player who's a bit too results-orientated; just because something works once doesn't make it the right play to put it simply. |
