Alright, time to start legitimately winning. Like, properly!
To accomplish this, I'm going to start a bi-weekly post, which I will call "Bad bi-weekly bluffs". I'll try to embarrass myself into not doing the dumb things I do, by posting all the bad/spewy/unnecessary bluffs/hands I play over every two week or so interval.
I feel as though posting this, and legitimately seeing how much the losses are adding up to will prevent me from doing this stuff.
I was looking up hands this morning, and I found a bunch of hands for this month so far, which added up to around $4k in avoidable losses. The losses were in about 10 or so hands, so that was about 1000bb's worth of losses in 17k hands so far.
1000bb's.. in 17k hands. That's a winrate of 5.88bb/100 all on its own! I'm flushing that winrate away out of nothing more than quasi tilt. This is nothing overly new. It causes me to have long streaks of breakeven play, followed by short bursts of big winning (when I actually play solid solid for a month or so).
Many (a large percentage) of these hands come from sessions where I'm getting EV killed and unlucky. I handle losses fairly well when I'm losing coolers, playing well etc. But when things are out of control, and I lose flips, and get sucked out on 80/20's, these situations seem to tilt me into stupid play much more.
So things to change: 1) stop playing when I'm legitimately running bad, EV-wise. 2) stop spewing, and try to work this "bad bluffs" win rate (loss-rate) progressively towards <1bb/100. This will be hard, but let's see if its possible!
Will post the hands when I get home later!
