Back from the motherfucking dead. It's been 2 years that I've posted on this blog, and having rediscovered it I thought it might be fun to post an update. Any subscribers/lurkers?

I'm still...

outdoor ice hockey is so purely Canadian.

This surely isn't of any great concern to anyone but I felt I should mention.. Poker's taken a back seat. Actually, it's on the roadside with its thumb out. Great travel companion; lots of...

I'd purchase the read that eludes you by raising.

Villain is likely shaping up to be a very passive player against which I'd c/f Turn.

I like flatting pre since we expect Villain to put more money in on every Flop. I'd c/c Turn; we often have the best hand, we have good equity.

is HEM still not working? I'll have a look..

FYP

For future reference, I believe messages only appear in 'sent' once they are opened by recipient. I could be wrong.

Volume was driven by a $800 bonus. I'm nothing short of relieved that it's over. My game is not up to speed to be profitably mass-tabling (which was necessary to stay on schedule to clear the bonus).

Nov = disappointment

Well that was a kick in the teeth. I rarely play tournaments. I chose to play one today. $5bi, $1000 guaranteed. 1st $490. 60 ppl left, blinds 600/1200 (+100), I'm top 10 with 50k chips. Server...

Funny, just had a lengthy discussion about that with Ravageur. I believe in most cases it comes down to a choice. Anyone can be shown the door, not everyone walks through it.

In chronological order, same table.

37/22, 46% steal, 63 hands. Have seen him 3b AQo OTB vs MP shorty.



No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed)

BB ($18.93)
UTG ($65.27)

Trying to plug some leaks in 10-25bb pots. I'm not exercising the fundamentals!!!


actively pick up reads/take notes
what is their range?
what better hands will fold?
what worse hands...

I'm ahead of schedule and will be clearing bonus #1 today. Unfortunately I've hit a nearly 10bi downswing which puts me at just about b/e from the point I started grinding out this bonus.

I met...

Don't know if it's day or night; feeling incredibly burnt out. This yo-yo pattern of sleep is taking its toll. The amount of poker I've played since mid-October makes up 1/3 of all the poker I've...

Instead of going to bed at 10am (yesterday) I tried to power through... crashed HARD at 5pm and was wide awake at 1am. fml.

I know the feeling. Been sleeping from 10am to 6pm. Feels pretty gross.

JJ imo

taking into account.. "villain seems pretty bad" + "may have reason to believe that i'm full of shit", I'd say shoving looks weaker than raising, and i would do it quickly.

Bonus #1 of 2 is @ 76%
#2 isn't active until #1 is clear, and expires on Jan 4th.
If I can clear #1 before end of month it should give me just enough time to comfortably clear #2 playing 50nl in...

late night heater, 5 tabling 50nl 6max

These aren't small problems. They are the crux of the matter! But what would be far more beneficial to you than the specific answers to your questions would be acquiring the framework to solve these...
