Hopefully you stayed off the tables while drinking?
Yeah course I never play drunk, there do many other things more fun, please I was with everyone most of the time
today, been running quite bad, been losing a lot of races, been 3 outted a lot, people hitting on the river, overpair vs underpair pre flop and them hitting their set, but im only down a BI and playing well, moving to stars today
have to move down to the $1.5, just had such a shit downswing on stars, losing like 80% of flips, getting 3 outters left right and centre, them always waking up with a hand, gunna take a break, all my BRs done since i tilted the majjority of it away at NL25 is go down, kinda sucks tbh :/
Run over 'em man. Hope you move down on an upswing
Taking a break is good, and getting confidence back is difficult blah, blah, blah.
You gotta find it in yourself, I don't think you are one to give up. I do the same thing and spew off at 50nl when I'm really tilted and can't stop myself.
I am getting more disciplined, day by day, but that's all the advice I can give in this situation.
I myself am pretty much done with hypers, turbos are just more fitting for my style and neuro-receptors.
What's tilting me today is that I'm gonna have to withdraw most of my roll this week to pay shit, but, it's better than donating to 50nl or 200nl regs!!
Run good sent.
yeah definately gunna take a short break, even if its like a day or 2, should be revising anyways
took a break, watched rounders, was playing my A game, but the cards hate me

My last break lasted a week, yours 12 hours? ♦
But when you play HU you know that variance will kick you in your behind after some time.

He's a variance junkie!
Not only does he play HUsngs, he plays Hyper-turbo HUsngs!
And a 5h break? Result Castle! I once took a break.... I should get back to playing actively soon..

Yeahhh i gotta deal with it ras, and I just needed a break cuz i was little bit pissed at poker but mostly other things so i wasnt in the right mindset to play, if it was poker based it would have been long
5 h break is all you need when you ve just watched rounders, it puts you in the perfect mind set, im gunna crush these, when im playing higher this will just seem like a 2BI swing being down $30
im not a variance junkie, its just such a fun game to play

As ive moved to stars now this is my graph of my 2 weeks at 888, running very low below EV, the rake made it pretty hard as well, according to EV im breakeven which i feel im improving, guess as some would say, grind it out, im also running about 12BI below EV on stars as well, upswing coming soon
Hey I don't know if you've already seen this, but if you haven't it's def a good watch.
Keep it up man!

just been trying trying some 6 max hypers I won the first one i played, when he got to heads up i wass thinking now you in my house! people are bad, there raise sizes are just eratic , they dont make sense, and their bet sizing is even worse
variance looks pretty killer tbh so far
KK<34s
QQ<AT
AT<36o
EDIT: just finishes 10 6 max games along with 28 HU games
was like just under 1BI down in the 6 max, however, my EV was like +2BI which which is nice
was up 5BI in the heads up, was playing well and running good today, was like 12BI under EV yesterday and im above it today so thats pretty sweet

very swingy day, the first 28 games are heads up, all the ones after that is 6max, I may mix them up, I feel like obviously 6 max has a lot more varience, but people are so bad compared to heads up, shoving Q3 for 25BB, so they seem pretty profitable, guess we ll see when it all ends in tears
Have you tried the FR Hyper-Turbos at Stars yet?
Softer than the 6max games IMO but I only had a 30-40 game sample ![]()
Are you still shipping exams and when are you done?
