So I took a good break and came back to pretty much the exact same thing. Not running to well, but breaking even is more than acceptable. I should be back to 1k hands a day now. Let's see if I can't make any money.
Btw I ran 22/16 today. Lots of preflop action. But I think it's time to step it up.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986686 Tried some head up cash and had pretty much the same luck.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986690 Here is how to lose 100$ without seeing a flop. This guy had 3 bet me like this 3 rotations in a row. He said he had KK obviously. So sick.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986697 These hands were making me WAY more money a couple weeks ago. Just a matter of time I guess.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986699 I played much more aggro today. Firing more 2nd barrels.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986705 Hehe, it's like pulling teeth getting these guys money.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986706 More 2 barrel action.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986709 Just a matter of time...
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986712 The most interesting hand of the session. I know I know... I have a huge draw. But so what? The problem here is that my opponents have shown me I have next to NO fold equity. What does that mean? It means if I shove all in I'm getting called by at least one guy. So what? Well most importantly, I'm likely not the only one with a flush draw. There are 2 outs gone right there. And if someone has the nut flush draw I'm practically toast. Turns out I was against another flush draw with a jack. All in is NOT the option here. Even though I obviously would have won the hand I am really pleased with my thought process here.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986720 Sooner or later....
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986722 Hopefully sooner....
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986729 Obviously right? I mean, I'm just getting slaughtered with AK. And I was getting 3:1 there on the end so I think it was a clear call.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986730 Here I got my first donation from T3.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986733 Laying hands like this down is getting really really annoying.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986734 So I finally make a successful all in call on the flop. I mean, the fact that guys are making this play at this limit is nuts. Yeah he looks like a total fish in the hand. But if I have like 99 or worse, I'm in a hell of a tough spot. Really crazy play.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986741 So here is a case where if you are going to check for value, you have to be willing to give up the hand. He made something on the river for sure.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986747 Again, some crazy action with 79. If I don't have an overpair I have to fold. Tough aggressive opponents. They look nuts, and they are, but they have so much fold equity with these shoves. And they aren't just shoving every flop either.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986753 I think I played this hand great. I certainly have to fold to this river bet though. I can beat a stone bluff.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986758 If I didn't fade this draw I would have lost it lol. Thank god my whole session didn't get screwed.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986760 HELP... I am TOTALLY clueless as to what to do in this hand. The big stack to my right is a extreme aggro. I just don't know if I can play any other line here.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?986762 Lots of kids are playing big pairs like this these days. Not like I can call anyway.
Today's Net +$115
Total Goal Left $17,490

Most of the hands that I checked out look ok, except for the first hand where you flopped a set with 44. Thats a draw heavy board which he likely hit or has a piece of and that he will usually call a bet. Might as wel lstart firing at this pot and try to get some money in there in case he has k-10 or another big hand where the turn card might kill the action. The other aspect is him catching a miracle and you getting stacked which happened here.
In fact, I noticed a few hands where you checked the flops and slowplayed it. 10-10-8 flop you smooth call and then checkc raise the turn. You will never get anymore money out of me or any other good player this way. It's way too transparent.
Anyway, I'm a cardrunners member that found your blog from their site. Good luck with your vegas quest!
Thanks for the feedback. As a general statement, I don't slowplay all too often. The hand with the T8 I think I got max value. I put him on total air on the flop, and on the turn I was happy he bet of course, but put in an obligatory raise. I had very little faith he would do anything but hopefully a big draw will play with me there. No reason to lead this flop, and no reason to play any other line against this opp IMO.
You should send me your CR name so I can check you out on the forums.
Thanks again
Yo jamie. I looked at all the hands and they look solid. I think a few times your looking way too deep into things and your forgeting that you playing 1/2 players on a site with 40k+ players. For instance the hand witht 79, you said that you though his shove was good because he has fold equity but really thats not all that true. I dont think your folding JJ+ there, and if you do just have overcards, well hes got the best hand doesnt he. IMO he called your raise pre with 79sooted, flopped top pair and donked off his stack. Hes sittin with half a stack to begin with so be givin these donators so much credit. Another hand to note was the A6 where u chked the acae hi flop after raiseing pre for value, then just called his turn bet and folded to his pot river bet. You said you think he definitly made something on the river for sure, but i disagree. I think he either outflopped you with a set or a two pair or he doesnt have much. The way i play a lot of my poker is similar to the way you went about playing this hand up until the river, where i put myself to a lot of tough calls, and well you chk the flop and show weakness, and your asking him to jump all over it and he does. I think this call is more like 50/50 then what seems like your puting it at 90/10. I think the hand where you said help what do i do here, with your JJ thats a pretty standard fold there. I mean if you got no notes or any HH's or any reads on the player there, you cant make that call and be profitable. Once he sees you flat call the guys pretty large raise, he knows youve got a pretty big hand and i think hes hoping your not good enough to fold this here. And with AK hes got tonns of fold equity here. Last, you said the Q9dd was the most interesting hand and well i dont think its all that big. I mean its a basic fold after a bet and a raise ahead of you with zero fold equity. If you had JQdd then i thinks its interesting, but this isnt to shitty. Annnyyyway just read it and actually thought i would share my thoughts. If your gunna respond to me dont do it here cause i probably wont see it, just im me.
