If anybody wants to comment on the hand they're most welcome, I think it's quite interesting because so far our house is pretty torn between going broke pre and playing the way I did (given the info we have).

The argument for going broke pre was that fish like that usually dont raise their AA/KK but limp them and raise other random hands instead. No note on that, and I always note things like that when I see it (could be he did it but vs someone else and I missed it). What speaks against it is that he's cb 9/11 times.

Tough decision to make ingame, and maybe not a superclear fold? What do you guys think? übernitty fold or spewy play to get it in pre?

hey vonki im no pro or sumtin but i think it's ok how u played assuming fishes stats.+ he cbets 9/11 times cuz he obv has strrong hand and maybe 2 times ace was on flop when he had KK.
but u have to take into consideration that he is a fish afterall, so who knows what he thinks and he can open just some random hand fropm time to time.
sucks that ur OOP but he is betting kinda small on flop so maybe a c/c is ok there and see what he does on turn? or thats totaly not the way to play?

Today was... long. I got up at and was ready to play at 9 (which was a bit later than I had planned, but I managed to turn off my alarm whilst snoozing :rolleyes: somthing I do often btw ). Because I hadnt played much this month I decided to just get grinding asap and keep going 'til I felt I couldnt play profitably anymore. That ended up in a new CG-record: 11 hours 40 minutes! :f_cool:

How did things go? Honestly don't know. I haven't checked my graph for today, and only checked the first 1k hands of yesterday, which was -30bb and 300bb under EV. Because fish keeps outing me, I decided not to check. If I check, I might end up getting frustrated or irritated over something I can't change anyway. So I decided I'll just be happy with the hours I've played, and with how I've handled the badbeats. I think thats how I managed to keep playing - and good- for so long :) A happy face!

Something that contributes to my happy face is (fish)regs making lolbad moves. :f_biggrin:

QQ hand; maybe villain just got bored and had Ax sooooted. Other than that I think [not for long] I go broke for that stack size preflop if I can.

That's insane grinding and still playing a good game btw. I can lat about 20 minutes of A-game them downhill fast for me! :)

Oh I did take that into consideration! But honestly, when a guy has 0 percent, thus havent tried to steal the blinds ONE SINGLE TIME in 1,2k hands, I'm not buying the theory that he once in a while decides to play a random hand, esp because the PFR he has in CO/BU/SB means that when he did it in these positions, someone else already joined the pot. Why do a random move when someone's already in the pot, but never once think about hey, lets raise a random hand from the BU because everyone else already folded?

Sometimes it's easy to take things for granted. Some days, like today... I get reminded of how lucky I am.

This was posted on Facebook, by a girl I went to school with just 2 years ago, before I gave poker a serious shot.

"Den vardagstid nu kommer, med regn och jävelskap. Med äckliga små måsten och dam och jobb å gnäll. Man vaknar, går till jobbet, man sliter och går hem, man slavar sen i köket och somnar om igen..."

Basicly a parody of a song about the wonderful summertime, but she rewrote it to express how she feels about her every day life, which is filled with rain and sorrow, musts, dust and whine. Waking up, going to work, work hard, go back home, slave in the kitchen, bedtime, rinse and repeat.

Had I not chosen to go with poker, thats what my everyday life would have looked like too.

:heart: Poker :heart: PokerStrategy.com :heart: My life :)

hahah... these guys crack me up

We were talking about what girls might be joining us tomorrow as we're going for a daytrip to some sort of resort with pool etc. Someone mentioned Joy (think thats how you spell it anyway) might be coming, so I asked "Which one was that again?". Reply goes: "You know the other day when we had a drink and went swimming in the pool, those girls came around". Im like "Yea, I remember them, just not their names. Is it the one with short hair?"

"Errr. I dont know. The one with the small boobs."

Me laughs.

"Ye I dont know about their hair. The one had big boobs the other had small. The one with the small boobs!"

Naturally, that still left me clueless since I didnt memorize their boobsize. :facepalm:

I love the guys in your house....

I'm not one to repeat myself, but I figured, to drive the point home, I shall just quote what I said at the last epic-manly-grindhouse comment last week:

Best of luck getting back in the grind!

There's 2M pesos to be made, and limited time, so best get to it!

What's your progress on that like anyway?
