hi!

as you know im studying to exams and also studying hu sng theory. also play a bit on cd poker with the 0,55 usd i won in a freroll. i have like 8 usd now. im playing 1.05 hu sng normal speed.
i must say that the last busto was probably the best thing that has ever happened to me. because of that i decided to study the game a lot harder than i used to and i discovered so many things i wasnt aware earlier that affected my game that i wonder no more why i kept going broke. f.e.:
- position play - i was aware of such factors like position, but when i realise how it is important to raise the button, and dont get involved in big pots oop, play certain types of hands differently when in position etc. (did ya know that winning players raise oop maximally 5% of the time, and they almost always raise the button?)
- effective stacks - and their importance, esp. in late phase of the tournament (SAGE)
- changing the way of play when reached bigger blinds
- game selection - chicago ry says this factor is crucial in lon term along with bm (i have to register on sharkscope) and many more...

the main source of my knowledge so far is 2+2 hu subforum and blogs of husng players. currently im reading chicag ry's blog. he is now mod on 2+2 and very smart player.

i also play 2 or 3 games a day on nl 1$. it may sounds fun but i think its a great opportunity to learn the basic things about playing poker - and i dont mean its the way to improve your game, cause y know the level of the players there. i mean about learning the basic concepts conected with poker like: patience, discipline, tilt controll, keeping ur game at the same level, bankroll managament and so ...
i always remember i was getting little frisky when i got over 30 bi. i started to play looser in hu, didnt focused much on the game and it affected my winrate. now when i play i try to be as concentrated as i can, i dont make fancy plays, i stop when i think im not playing my a game or when im starting to make stupid moves. cause when u start playing bad with a roll like 8 $ u start to notice of importance of every each decision u make in hu (after winning like a 6 in a row i started to fancy playing and those bastards beat me for hole 3 usd). and believe me, almost every one can change the course of the game.
i never before playd lower than 5$ cause i found myself way too good to sit down with suckers, but now i think that every good player should experience such thing. i firmly believe that it will make me a better player.

also started to use pokertracker and i wonder why i havent earlier. its god damn great fuckin tool. i always found game analysis boring but poker tracker makes it fun and lately i started to analyse my game even more than i play...

so thats all for now, im currently not playing poker to win, but to learn some basic things and improve some others but i will write at end of every post my br on cdpoker(like chicago ry), i think that when im done with the umi i will post much more hands.

BR: 8,11 $

chic for the end:
thats miley cyrus, shes became quite famous nowadays, how the hell can she be 15 years old???
