[Closed] the Raun vs tac3znarf november race

it was nice chatting to you too. its a shame its so hard to find time for it because of the time difference. i have much i'd like to discuss.

and dont worry you didnt disturb me much and i could've just said i was busy instead of keep chatting.

Now its even more interesting Diamond vs Bronze ♦ Gogo Raun ♦

Just played a few hands today and won $150. I just feel that I am not in my A game and cannot really force myself to play a lot. I might just end up burning my chips.

@JuiceQuadre - Raun's account is not tracked with pokerstrategy. He has twice of my current bankroll. In terms of consistent wins, he is way better than me.

Im also in contact with him so i know he would easily become a Diamond

Im just kidding around you know

im having a short break between sessions right now and ive just had a really enjoyable day so far. ive been pretty unstopable and so far im up ~700$ in 1½ hour. im 260$ away from breaking my personal record for most winnings in 1 day so i really hope i make it,

i have been experimenting a lot with my post flop game and i will post some hands in the hand evaluation forum later.

i made a pretty funky mistake earlier where called a resteal push with 68 because it thought it was 88. doh. anyways im happy with my game and my luck and i will post my final results for the day later.

Wow you two will kill the tables it seems. Shortstacking rules

wooow...you both are incredible... ♠_cool: ♠_cool: ♠_cool:..

Raun, one question, as i understood some threads before, you are playing on Cake?! How did you get stats from the begining of this thread?! Do you use some special programm to "pull" hand histories and follow your progress on Cake?

thanks guys ♦

@drachdudek: i use sharp stats for personal tracking.

edit: btw tac3znarf could you post your daily results this month?. i need it for the graph, i can see one of the days are missing.

i 'only' managed 836$ today so my personal record remain the same. but i am of course very pleased anyway. at least i am fairly sure to break another personal record: most winnings in one month which was previously ~5k$ incl rake.

yes i know... i am way too result oriented... well i cant help it.

i am also pleased that i am catching up in the race. better watch out
tac3znarf im coming to get ya

it works for cake and ftp afaik.

nice going u2, great profits wish i could match that

You guys are sick..
wish you good luck with your challenge..

thanks

today was an awful awful day.

i felt like i all the time faced monsters in allins and rarely hit any monsters myself.

so im 80$ down today.

i tilted away 80$ in the last hand which i really regret now, oh well... tomorrow will be better.

hmm i havent heard anything from tac3znarf in a while. i hope there is nothing wrong.

i had another bad day today and finished 40$

i didnt get enough value when i was hu against the fish and i was also running a good deal below ev and donk factor.

Hi Raun,

I was not able to play for two days now. I was so tired when I got home last Friday so I imemdiately went to sleep. When I woke up on Saturday, I had a sever head ache.

Today I have watched the live boxing match of Manny Pacquiao. Pacman won on 12th round.

Later I will try to play. My wife and I need to go to the mall right now to buy blender cause she wants to create some fresh juices.

if you are getting a blender you should also try experimenting with some smoothies

these are the halfway results and the halfway graph as of 15th november:

tac3znarf: 4478
raun: 3796

I started my session past 10PM so my stats were were seperated in two days since I am using local time for the database.

Nov 15: $198
Nov 16: $84

November Total: $4760

today i started out on tilt. i overslept my schedule which made me really angry with myself (i am allready a cranky morning person) and one of the first hands i got a mild badbeat. i knew i shouldnt have played today when i started out in that mood. so that makes me even more pissed in myself.

im not going to play more today and i really need to be careful with my mentality tomorrow and if i start loosing i may have to stop early to prevent tilt.

so i played 62 hands and lost 200$ today. fucking infuriating.

i madé 2 errors while on tilt:

- pushed AJ vs a minraise and a cold caller (on these limits minraises arent weak),

- called a push in a 3way pot with AJ with ~25% potodds and overcarsd only, but i dont think my 6 outs were clean.

update: i just played another session cause i felt my mentality was better and i did also play better. but i got sucked out a lot and i lost another 100$. so the total for the day is around -300$.

Nov 17

Today I took a stab in NL600 but I was totally crushed and lost $480.

------

I managed to get home at around 10:45 PM and wasable to play some hands and managed to reduce the losses to just -$74.55.

Below is the scary graph for the day which is almost a disaster since at one point I was already losing more than $1200.

something horrible happened today.

i was getting sucked out a lot and wás doing really bad.

then at one point i was sitting at super fishy NL600 table but i wasnt getting any hands so i decided to play BSS so i could at least set mine and such.

i will just post the hand and you can see for yourself what happened. i know i played it wrong i should have just called on river instead of reraising but thats what happens when a short stack plays bigstacked i guess.

god i hate myself. i willl never do this again. so because i lost 600$ in that hand i am down a total of 800$ today. and this brings my monthly total to 2682$ which means that im still doing above expectation, but just barely.
if i do bad tomorrow i think i might need to take a small break from poker. just a few days i think.
