and he got chipleader... This shit has happened me all day. I was ready to get that first prize of $14k.
Bet flop.
If he has ace then you can stack him, if not you're just giving him free cards.
At that point you don't also mind, if you take pot down with c-bet.
Unlucky river, there is always next time 
I had superb reads on that villain so I didn't need to bet flop. One time I also slowplayed my ace pair and went all-in on turn he called me with QT on a board of AxxK.
So this week started really well considering cash game. I had winning sessions for 4 days straight and I felt really comfortable at NL100 tables. Sadly I lost all that profit (and more) with tourneys. This made me tilt and I decided that I need to play tourneys good again which I did resulting in multiple cashes, mostly in rebuy tourneys which I so much love. Nevertheless I'm down $1000 with tourneys this month and currently I'm waiting for that one big cash but every time I make ITM or more I lose in situations like JJ vs AK, AA vs KK, QQ vs 88 etc etc.
Anyway this weekend... It was really bad, I lost $1000 in cash and I can't play NL100 for some time now (I will not play it). Well actually I will play it next 2 days to get platinum status and make my 50k FPP into $650. I don't know what happened this week: tilt? downswing? Mostly tilt and bad day but I really didn't hit any good hands during this weekend. It's really sick considering that at one point my BR was at $3400.
So now I will try and cash big in todays tourneys, make platinum at pokerstars and start to grind at NL50 or give NL25SH a shot. We'll see.
BR: $1306 FPP: 48 441 (I registred to Turbo Mill take down for 5k FPP)
End of December screwed all my month but at least I started to play good and run hot at tourneys so i'm looking forward to ship something next month/year.
Dec, graph:
and I will take 50k FPP bonus soon for $650, so I have a solid BRm for NL100
BR: $2059 FPP: 50 585
Happy new year to everybody!
Lol at that hand (omg Gerv played like real donk, no wonder I pushed that in to 1/3 cbet -.-).
Anyway this week... Sucked obv. I started nicely but then got doomswitched again at NL100 FR. After that I decided to play NL50 HU. I even ordered one book called Heads-Up No-Limit Hold 'em. Can't wait until it arrives. I have played over 1k hands at NL50 HU and with pretty good results. I started to choose my opponents (checking if they are winning or losing players) and I usualy beat bad players, but ofc HU is swingy game and that u can see from my graph:
That last swong is against huge fish whom I was winning huge amounts of dollars until this hand:

After that I obv. tilted and lost another $50 to his rivered gutshot.
But otherwise the climb up to the sky looks alright )made $25 profit with 4BB/100). Next week I will play only NL50 HU, at least 5k hands and I will try to beat that with winrate of 20BB/100 (with 5k hands that $1000 O.o) if not more. I have the edge, why shouldn't I use it?
Last weeks total graph:
BR: $1573, FPP: 2987 ($650 bonus will be released in 3648VPP)
[x] timu overplayed 77 again (against that HU donk).. watch out for those 77 ♦
If serious - quite a swing you have taken here. Clear that bonus and perhaps stick a bit more to NL50 and dont rush jumping into NL100. Although you did quite ok there it seemed. But well - whatever you choose i wish you good luck and see you at the tables
Did you saw Stars kicking off 50 000 people off their server including 100NL FR people?
I Only saw Fish playing , unfortunately couldn't join up. THis happened around 22:00 CET
Nah, I didn't see it O.o, though no wonder, that software was lagging like hell yesterday.
This week was pretty horrible. I failed my "make 5k hands with +20BB/100" goal. I actually managed to end week with -BB, but it was because of lack of discipline and wrong table selection. I'm more confident about next week.
This weekend I thought of trying to grind $12 180man turbos. It started pretty nicely but ended with 40 buy-in downswing (you can search me on sharkscope, Timukasr1 from pokerstars). It was due to huge bad luck. I didn't win much coinflips, my big hands got sucked out and when I sucked out it didn't matter because then I had 2BB instead of 1BB. The main frustrating thing was that I got suck outs at final tables or when there was last 15 players (A4s vs Q6s who gets runner runner flush or like today KK vs QQ vs 99, 99 gets quads and QQ gets set). I will probably try to play some of them next week but for sure not so much. We'll see. I managed to end with one 2nd place, three 4th places and one 7th place + some ITM finishes. I'm not sure how much did I play those but I think about 80 or so.
Next week I will try to play some small stud tables and make +BB at NL50 HU.
BR: $1200 FPP: 5138 (2768 VPP needed to unlock $650 bonus)

You are too much of a highroller for me :(, I will just try 0.5/1 tables (ofc my stud entusiasm came from your success ;)).
Pwnd at NL50 HU today but lost $150 with SNGs 
Also I lost like $200 yesterday ($30 with SNGs and $170 with cash tiltament).
[x] +78BB/100 over 760 hands
Probably will try to focus more on cash, because I have started to beat the crap out of regulars.
Best hand imo:
