here we go!

This week I've been mixing it up, both when it comes to limit and when it comes to SH/FR. I've gotten some coaching requests from some FR guys so it's time to dust off the old FR hat and get back on the FR tables again, can't hurt right? :) I think next week I will keep to FR, but we'll see.

AS PROMISED, finally a bit more volume ;) Also, because the updates have been so poor lately, I've included a graph. Not sure if it's exclusively hands played for the challenge, but 95% is for sure. :) have a nice sunday eve! :f_drink:

:spade: Week 34 summary :spade:

Hands: 4080
Profit: $17.53
Current BR: $476.50

How can anyone in their right mind be willing to play FR when you know how to play SH? ?( :f_mad: Very nice graph! Keep it up.

I find that both poker and life tends to be more enjoyable with an open positive mindset to things, and not holding such harsch grudges. FR and SH are not that different, don't see the big deal :)

Yea I got that part, just didn't think was very funny. ;) There's plenty of micro FR players around here who read stuff and because of that I don't see the point of making fun of them and making them feel like they're "out of their minds" for playing FR. Maybe work on your jokes a bit, kind of :f_biggrin:

FR player here, played around with 6max. Variance in 6max is too high for my tastes so I'll stick with FR :) It's not always folding for hours on end

Friend once said: To play FullRing you need to learn Short Handed, to play ShortHanded you need to study Heads UP, Then how can we learn Heads UP? there is no 1max game :coolface: :coolface:

Actually there is: you have two sets of hole cards, you look at both of them and take the right action. You will always go all-in preflop. It's the only variant of poker in which you win 100% of the time and you lose 100% of the time

Haha let's not start the discussion of FR vs SH because it's pretty much like having a discussion between fans of two different sport teams, both have their very fixed opinions about it and arguing (or discussing) about it will lead absolutely nowhere :f_biggrin: we're all different, our likes are all different and that's all fine :f_thumbsup:

:spade: Week 35 summary :spade:

Hands: 5600
Profit: $27.03
Current BR: $503.53

I have been going through one of the most stressful and miserable patches of my life these past weeks... This week was worse than any of them. I tried to disctract myself with some poker, probably wasn't such a wise idea. My game wasn't on point and my stresslevels got even worse. :f_frown: It's a miracle in of itself I managed to get profits, I ran quite well in all in situations where I was ahead but I also had quite a few set under set situations... Bankroll DID BREAK THE $500 point :f_thumbsup:

I don't think I will cash out the $50 to reward myself until I reached $550 though, don't wanna bring the BR to under $500 again :f_biggrin: I COULD use a treat though, tough times. I will be taking a break from poker for the next few days and hopefully I'll be able to regenerate from all the stress once I get back to Germany on thursday.

GL at the tables!

xoxo :heart:
