Dear Jyms,

Don't let this (http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...55.html#923455) get you down. It happens. Take a few days off and get back in there.

Ur eFrand,
spoony

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Did you get it all back at 100NL? I feel like 15-buyin swings in a couple thousand hands shouldn't happen very often if ever.

it's all $100NL. The only $200NL is between 8000 and 9000 hands when I opened 2 tables vs a bad fish while playing 2 $100NL tables. I am up $57 on $200NL. I have ran at almost 3% sets so far and them not getting paid or set over set or flush over set but last night everything held. I lost one stack w/QQ<KK and that was it. I finally hit some shoves with combo draws and made some good folds. Saturday was a short session where everything went well too. I am now at 7% sets, which really helps the winrate when those are running that bad but turn around.

Biggest issue is I think I have a D game. I need to work on eliminating it. My A game is good, my B game has a decent earn but I play in the C and D game too often. I need to work on that.

You still have the bad habit of playing because you can, not because you should. Your 40 hr op was a prime example. Forcing 40hrs in regardless of how you feel and how you're playing is a recipe for disaster.
Just playing to improve.

you should realize by now this is a serious leak.
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

hell yea. I have some things to work on for sure. The thing about not resting is more mentally than actual play. Should've said "I can't rest"

This is enough poker for the commune, time for a lock or a move rilla.

Time for rilla's closing words.

I'd like to think we all learned something today. Sometimes we can see our own weaknesses or 'leaks' and we just can't close them. Like that last fucking krispy kreme glazed donut. That sugar and dough asshole just wants to be eaten even if your better judgement says it'll go straight to your thunder thighs. Instead of plugging our own leaks, let's all focus on exploiting others. Give that sugary treat to a co-worker or random fatty. Becuase life isn't about making yourself a better man or woman afterall. It's about screwing your neighbor before that son of a bitch gets you.

{And those were rilla's closing words}

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.
