Playing poker. Last night over a tiny sample I "felt" like i was constantly getting played back at. But I continued to fold fold fold. Last night could have been -5 BI, but to expert folding became a lot less than that. I prob could fold more.

But sometimes reg tags do things that make no sense. Like I raise UTG TT flop comes 953r I cbet and get raised. I'm like wtf is he rasing here. He doesn't have 87s like ever so that leave sets which is retarded or maybe KQs JQs type hands. i don't know. Whenever something doesnt make sense I tend to fold. But this hand I really wanted to stack of on the flop.

Interesting rant. Sounds like you've got a lot of stuff to figure out. I know for me, poker is simply a means to an end. That end being able to do whatever I feel like including paying off college loans faster than I could if I didn't play. Working out is great in and of itself because it helps you have a stable part of the day where you know you need to do something and lets you forget a lot of other worries in life. Pairs up pretty perfectly with the variance heavy poker playing life style.

If your friends only want to get drunk then who fucking cares. If you don't feel like going out then don't. It's that easy. I'm in my senior year of college when society says "I should be getting wasted every day and banging like 30 chicks a week" but instead I've been to one party this term which although it was fun probably got me sick. Seriously, fuck peer pressure and do you.

Make sure you table select well enough. There should be enough fish at $50NL to make regs generally just an inconvenience.

Thanks Jason. I start tables and make sure there is at least one fish even at 50 I haven't felt like I'm getting owned by the regs so if there at least one good fish I'm staying. I feel someone is 3 betting me a lot and it's only one fish I just leave.

Rant more. It's a beautiful thing. Good posts/replies. I can easily relate to a lot of the original rant. Fuck a lot of those things man. I want money too but I never want to be a "balla". Like DC, it's a means to an end.

Considering playing some 2/5 at a local Casino, if I do, wish me luck.

Thanks,

Decided against playing 2/5 I don't have a big enough bankroll or the will to do it. Last week I played live 2x once won 400 other time lost 470. In any case, I wont consider 2/5 nl until I win 20 BI live.

-375 Boo live.

Roll is back grinding will ensue shortly.

Go away from poker for a few weeks and now back again. have been a bit tilty, don't know if it is the software. So far player base at 25nl carbon is pretty easy, i just need to get into the grove. Playing at 80% or less of my decent game. One player has given me problems but instead of moving away, which is why i used to do I tried to mess with him and he owned me. granted it was lol sample size and im pretty retarded when i play. I def. will get better.

Good thing for rakeback. I have to remember once again that this is a long run. And take it slow. If it takes me until august to get to 50nl that's fine too. I just have to be mentally okay with that fact. If I am then I will have success and be fine. Plus carbon poker software tilts me I called 3 bet 2x now when I didn't realize it was a 3 bet. But those issues will go away eventually.

Lastly, LOVE THE RAKEback it helps me be in + over the 2.7k I have played so far.

I am back!

WTF is wrong with me. Tilted for the first time in like forever.

BR:400ish. Playing 25nl. Only goal right is to play 40k Before July 10th. I will try hard to not look at cashier. I went away from this after a few months, but given my recent issues I need to redouble that effort which worked very well in the past.

Wish me luck.

GL! If you're having any issues with the new software, maybe you should drop to 10NL until you're comfortable with it.

I think the software tilts me. Or it could be that my life tilts me. In any case, I need to start to consider dropping down. I wish I can blame DOJ. But as a true poker player I should be able o adjust to anything. I am not adjusting.

Though I have some issues my strength has always been bankroll management. I am forced to move down BR: 253.

Im just not used to certain things.... I shall prevail.......
