50nl has been pretty rough on me this time around so far. If I run into another two card straight flush vs my top boat, another quads, another moan. | |

Do people defend more often or less often from the blinds in FR? I'd imagine less? | |

Yah that does seem low. Given how infrequently it must happen, you gotta take advantage of it when it does, especially if people are rarely defending and defending poorly at that! | |

month started out with a huge series of coolers. I ran enough boats into two card straight flushes to last a year. I didn't do so well flipping either. Here's hoping it gets better. | |

i've recently moved to FT thanks to a rakeback deal i didn't realise i was eligible for. i'm curious, what do you think is the best way to get value from FTP's? just keep saving them and buying cash bonuses? are there any particularly soft satellites you like to play with FTP's? | |

i just saved mine until FTP finally introduced cash bonuses for FTPs. Need to get black card status to take advantage of this though. I'll occasionally play a tourney with them. No idea about soft satellites etc. | |

here are some interesting position stats. From a good/standard TAG-nit in my games. Some things stand out - I came across this during some good ol' fashioned reg-review | |

i think there was a post here about posting beats and whether this is a dumb thing to do? but it's gone now. And yep, whoever said that is right. These beats are all amusing beats/coolers rather than things i'm really upset about. I will balance the crazy beats vs villains whose lines I am stoked about with crazy wins of the same flavour in future | |

started implementing some stuff into my game that should already be there. Decided to do it at 25nl, just in case it backfired. Worked out great, cos it's cheaper laughs that way. Funniest hand in a long time, blah blah don't post beats etc. But c'mon. Losing with KK on KK9JT is worth a picture! funniest thing is happened for less than 100bb and at lol-stakes. Makes me smile. | |

daven I've been away for awhile and just read through your op. Good luck bro you know I'll be supporting you for sure. That last graph is so fucking sexy it's crazy but not as crazy as the hand you posted today! WTH are you stupid that's an easy fold on the river..... | |

yea it was me who was hating on posting beats but i was drunk when i posted it and didnt realize that both the morons had flatted 4bets with TT...worthy of a lolpost imo.....and this last one is hilarious as well, thats what you get for slowplaying quads. | |

it's actually really interesting. He's a solid winner. Gets you thinking about positional play? and image? like, he's 2.8% 3b, so you gonna respect his 3bets some? and he's doing it from lp and blinds vs weak ranges that want to fold. yet he flats AK/KK/AA from mp. But nobody notices. Etc. | |

been out of internet range for a week and it feels good. Volunteered to help a friend with fieldwork on the west coast. She's halfway through a PhD in environmental geochemistry, all about mitigating mining impacts on the environment etc. Ended up at some interesting field-sites, playing with portable XRFs, exploring where da gold at. Anyway, turns out i'm going to be paid for the week i spent out there. Maybe it's a form of compensation for all the arsenic i probably ate. First non-poker income in close on two years. Funny. | |

cool weekend just passed. No poker again. Camped next to a lake on Friday night, entered a climbing comp on flawless schist boulders on saturday and had a great time, even climbed ok. Now it's Monday morning, i've already clocked a 1hr run with a couple of people i'm training with, sun is out, life feels good. May almost be time to play some poker. I've managed 7hrs of 6ptBB/100 in the first 7 days of March. Need to clock more hours. It's looking more and more likely that i'll be in Europe from mid-May until early-September. Attending weddings, climbing rocks, exploring euro-beer, that sort of thing. Probably end up taking my laptop and playing some poker on the road. | |

haven't played much yet this month, but i have gone away climbing two weekends and life is feeling good. I'm up about $1.2k after rakeback/bonus, and i've played 27k hands, about half at 25nl and the rest now i'm feeling good at 50nl. I've made a few changes to my game and it's interesting seeing that my redline slopes downward a lot less sharply, hell, i've even had sessions of 2k hands and a +ve redline on occasion lately. | |

i've been thinking a lot about poker of late. It's still a fascinating journey. At the moment i'm trying to figure out what things i want to fill the rest of my day-to-day life with. I don't want to simply fall into a habit of 'meh, not sure what to do right now - I'll play some poker' | |

Time to post a hand that has some pretty interesting range considerations. Villain is 10-8, about 6-6 from ep, has 60%cbet, 40% turn cbet, 54% W$WSD and generally an all-round winning nit. | |

re: zilla conversation -- I have been dealing with poker burnout pretty much the entire month, and following a playing schedule might be the best thing for me. Usually I just play when I have some free time but I find I am often not playing my A game (lol I remember reading something Doyle Brunson wrote about how he like online poker because he can play for 10-15mins whenever he wants -- encourage degenerateaments). | |

As someone who suffered burnout last year and quit playing for 6 months, I can say first hand that it's a very difficult situation. In hindsight, I wish I hadn't taken so much time off. It definitely takes a while to get back in the swing of things. Everytime I think I'm back to my old self, new leaks or unpredictable things start to happen. But, if you're suffering burnout, you're not really as in control for how much time you can take off. I think trying to play through it could make it worse. So, if I get burnt out again, I will definitely take time off but try not to take TOO much time off | |
