I have been playing poker for like 5 years now, but I am so out of the loop on "getting connected." I think I am reducing my overall profits and increasing my variance by not learning what other players are going through and getting in their minds. So I joined this forum to learn what things like 23/17 mean and find out how my professional counterparts are doing.
First off, I play everything from .50/1 to 25/50, depending on how I am running. And everything from stud h/l, omaha h/l, to NL Hold'em. With my style of play, I am either running really really good or really really really bad.
Right now I am running really really really bad. It feels like I can't win a hand. Although I preach it, I am far from being a grinder, at least when I have a roll. So when I run bad, it hurts. The other day I shoved all in on an 8 high flop with KK and got called by unsuited AJ and lost a $2500 pot. The pot was only $350 when I shoved. I begin to second guess myself and stop trying to make reads. I hate other poker players, God, and most of all the poker sites and its support staff. I really need to learn how to be a grinder...
Running bad sucks,

P.S. The one thing you learn when you are running bad is that you must have the best cards on the river to win the pot. Right now I have no idea how to get the best cards on the river.

sounds like you should cash out everything except $10 and start again from NL2... learn how to grind |

running bad on how many hands? what kind of sample and what limits? you might not beat all limits you play. the shove on the flop seems really odd to me :S
why would you do that? do you do a lot of these moves when running bad? cause you are going to lose huge pots and miss alot of value and that won't be helping... i guess you got called so it worked out but "overall" it won't. |

I guess all I can say is that I was playing this guy and I knew the flow of the game. There was a FD on flop and I wanted to make it look like I had that. Huge pots are not won HU with KK unless the game is overaggressive. Take down 30 BB pot and call it a victory. I was taking down 35 BB pot and got in 8 to 1 for a 250 BB pot.
I am up 25k in 2 weeks and only started with $200. The bad run is hopefully over. I assure you I was running bad though. Not bad play. I'll get my PS roll goin again and start breaking HU tables, but until then, Full Tilt here I come! |
