Took mon - thurs off which was awesome. Felt really good to let myself be free of poker and have some days where I didn't feel a pressure to play. Started up again on Friday and felt like I ran really good. Still doing the don't check the BR thing so I dunno how much I won but I'm pretty sure I won a solid amount cause there was some heaterish shit going on. Yesterday I played in the morning and ran horrible so stopped right away. Played again later in the night and had a break evenish session and then started to run bad so I quit. Today kind of the same story - felt pretty break even and then started to run bad so I quit again.
I've totally eliminated the desire to check my BR/winnings after every session. That's a very good feeling, cause after winning or losing I'm feeling pretty close to the same. And the results at the poker table have stopped having such a huge affect on the rest of my life. I used to be on a huge high when I'd had a winning session but if I'd had a shitty session I'd be moody. There's still some swing in emotion but it's very very small now and I'm pretty close to level after every session. I think my GF is pretty happy about that =)
I've also started playing much longer sessions while winning and shorter ones while losing. The fact that I'm not paying attention to how much I won/lost per session has made it easier to grind longer when I feel like I'm running good and playing good. I used to get a strong desire to quit after winning 2-3 buyins cause I wanted to be able to look at that green profit in HEM after the session. That feeling still comes up but I've been able to beat it down and keep grinding and make even more profit. Pretty sweet.
So overall I have no idea where my BR is - probably somewhere between 6k and 10k, lol. But I'm playing pretty well and enjoying poker a lot more than I have in a long time.
I'm also very hooked on farcry2. such a fun game. I just made it to act 2 and + Show Spoiler +
all my buddies died at mikes bar, or so it seems. WTF! .
Question for anyone who's played farcry 2:
1) What's the diamond + # in the upper left hand corner of the map mean? Is that how many diamond cases are left in that area of the map?
2) I lost my ability to do missions at the arms trader and unlock weapons. I was still able to do missions at the cell towers and mikes bar. I dunno if I fucked something up or if I just had done all the missions that they were willing to give me at that point. It's weird cause I went in and they said I could unlock some shit if I did a mission and I didn't accept the mission, and after that I never got offered another one. Bugged me cause I was trying to unlock as many weapons as possible but wasn't in the mood to blow up a truck at the time.
3) Is there a big difference in the campaign if you choose different characters? Like right now I'm marty but if I go and pick someone else and start a new campaign, will they just redo all the same stuff with the new character or will the story change?

How do you not see your BR when you join tables?
I know exactly how you feel after a session and I need to get rid of that feeling as well... I play on FT so table ninja wont work, assuming thats what you use... |

God, I'm wishing I could not see my BR now. I know exactly how much I'm up or down most of the time, and if it's not in triple digits I'll work it out to the doubles in like 2 seconds without thinking...
Any tips for someone playing husngs on FTP where your BR is in your friggin rematch screen? =( |

table ninja
but even then I would never look at the BR on the table buyin thing. I never knew it was there till like a month ago and then I just made sure not to look. I've got auto reload set and I have it save my buyin amount, so even without table ninja I would barely ever look at that shit.
farcry2 pwnz, you'll have fun night =)
yeah I got arms unlocknig missions again now that I"m in the new area. Can I ever go back to the original area? I still have so many diamonds to get up there. |
