[Closed] Two in one FL poker :)

A couple of things I noticed in previous posts I'd comment on briefly.

You keep mentioning fish on the table yet end up playing like them. This site is all about learning how NOT to paly like them, but beating them.

So you will 'most prolly' improve your game as you move up the stakes eh? Continue along this vein of thought and when you get there, there will be an awful lot of players waiting at the table for you.
So use the opportunity to learn how to play properly, using the advice from the excellent players on here (of which I am not one) and go quietly about the business of building your skill and bankroll and playing a level appropriate to the former, not the latter.
Also, saying you had a 'feeling to call' puts you in the same bracket as the fish you mock. I never mock fish, because I prefer to play them than people like Primzi; Taavi or TerrorBlade etc., where I do believe the 'variance' (:)) of my game would increase dramatically. Somehow, I don't think 'tightening up' would cut it. Lol.

Here's a rule for you: Decision Correct, Result Irrelevant. Learn it and learn what it means.

thx 4 the great arguments guys!really well explained so ya we fistly have to learn from u to open our eyes 4 the next usuful things!thx too tired right now!i m going 2 bed!ty gn

yp thank you for the great advices guys as many other i have alot to learn about poker, its just that the sudden upswing i dont know made me think short term ♦ good thing i started this blog, thanks again

EPIC FAIL!

so lets start with the beginning ! For many many times i lost 50 each time or better, not being able to play and trying to hit hu tables!i mean flhu tables!
After writing last post i really wanted to play a bit and joined a 50/1 table with one guy!he luck boxed hard ,than another one joined,continued to play and finished 40 bb s down!! Im not money orientated but now i m sick cause again i went out of bankroll to play!
So today is -14x bbs down 4 our limit!

So lets say my mother dont want to see me playing pkr and even dont want to hear something about as long as i m dependent financial i think,and that is the problem.i didn t opened like always 4 to 6 tbls!Also before starting to play i was kinda sick/tired of the every day schedule....learn learn play 2 3 hours learn learn sleep etc
NO fun no time to meet some guys that i had to...
I mean its a long story with my big faults and again after some time i m so frustrated but not like in the past...i m not tilted just wanted to play...(this moments i want to leave them in the past...when u want to play but not having best mood)

So guys u re advices are a must for me in this moments!
It sucks so hard...

So main question:how to deal with this shitty moments in life when u have some indispensables things that u have to do whateva u think?

[x]Emo
[x]Tired
[x]Epic emo thread!
[x]Fucked up!

So for now i think i have to set some goals:

1st and the most important:
Every time i play a hu match without at least 600bbs in my bankroll next day i dont play!

2nd every time i m frustrated trying to do something else without staying at the pc!

3rd dont try anymore to play when my mother its home cause this can result in an ugly battle*.[whem i ll make some big profit(if will be eva that day)at least 10k+ i ll explain abt this till than she/he(father)looks at poker like they see roulete or slots...]

Every time i don t respect that rules i have to......give me some fine options!

C u! Gl at tables!

Sorry 4 somemistakes!going to read some gold psiho articles!
i think i edited them but i m not sure is writen 100% corectly ! first post was writen from my phone and sucks u know! thx still waiting for some advices !
♠_cry:

Good that you play FL.

Stop using this awful slang. Correct grammar and punctuation, please. Bunch of sentences in a row without capital letters at the beginning really hurts my eyes. I would like to help you with FL but if you write like this I can't respect you nor believe that your game will improve.

Good luck, you're going to need it.

Hey man just wanted to say its now worth to play low stakes FLHU cash games since the rake is just crazy even at 3/6$ tables usually at least on smaller sites.
I suggest you try to build a bankroll on FR or SH ones then switch to HU if u want later.

As for blowing away part of your bankroll dont worry too much just look at it as a learning experience. That way u wont get too mad if u have a few 100BB+/day losing sessions.

GL and prepare for some crazy swings

Hello!

If you really want to play FLHU, play FLHU SNGs. As Gape already pointed out, the rake is sick before 3/6 and even at 3/6 so you'll be losing money even if you're playing vs fishes.

Primzi

So decided that from now on I will have 1-3 h sessions and after that 2-3 h of reading articles, looking at some videos and post some of my hands to see if I played them corectly.Hopefully this scheduel will improve my game.The bad thing is that I can only do this things at night because during the day i have to many distractions in the house, and from what I know when you have a session you musnt be distracted by nothing or by no one.And if someone has some tips about improving my FL game do tell

How about learning first and then having a session so you can try to apply the new learned concepts :)?

hmm good ideea ♦, I will try that thx

@Primzi +1

Basically, if you try to run before you can walk properly, you'll most likely fall over.

yapp thx primzi flhu sngs !i m gonna try them soon!i dont think i m gona play today but always its a so called tomorow!!

UPDATE 20 . 08 . 2010

Today was finaly an easy day lets say,not so stresful like till now!

Woke up at 10:30 am
Like every day, started studying some future exam stuff...relaxed and from 16:00started to play!
I think im a bit bored about fl and today played only nl and i think after 10k hands i ll try to fing which game suits better!
Played about 1500 hands and finished about 20$up but i m down in tournaments!
Played one 9$ 5k$G ended up with AA against 55(turn faced a 5 ) and one 6$ HU SNG ending coolered!jj over qq!

But lets say a bit about my sh game! Started losing amazingly fast 2.5Bi seeing all the time how river killed me! No problem continued to play and BE 4 today!

All in all it was an oke day!

W8ing 4 my bro to ship some trny this night!he said he will play some!

C u guys!

Well this day went fine as jhustincase said played FL 0.25/0.50 im down 30 bb's but I gues its more than standard and I think that I could of lost alot more if played agressive as usual, so I think I learned something today and yesterday (not evreyday is a winning day) ♦ .Tommorrow article reading and hopefully I will have enough time to put them in practice.

And about the tourney's (playing MTT's from time to time) got a standard bad beat - A high flush vs a full house on the river ♦ that suxx
So with that I say good night to yall and cya tommorrow

UPDATE 21 . 08 . 2010

Another day passed and at the moment again i have a bad feeling!As i can see day after day i'm losing confidence regarding my social life!I don't have time to make anything else than learn/study(not poker) and playing poker!I'm not a rich guy so my parents can't give me money's that i need to go out with my friends instead trying to make some money for my future plans!(i meam i m not going to withdraw anymore than 100$ whateva i ship).
I have ex class mates(good friends) that i didn't give a sign for 1 month...they called me but i was to sick and didn't answer...i feel i'm losing control out of my situation!
And know i thought beeing a medic is nice but now all i can see is that doing this u loose your life...to much study and i think a humanbeing is able everytime to develop tricky plans...not me i think!
Lets make it short!I reviewed my learning schedule for next 3 weeks and sucks big time!I have to double up my volume to face it up...sucks!so 4 the moment i'll do so and than i'll think deeper about poker because i really feel i have an edge over that game...

So pokerwise:Today played nl again sh nl10!I'm up 7 stacks and i know variance is with me but at this limits where all are tight u somehow manage to fing a reg (or some) 3bet him like crazy and than he will throw a stack in u with crappy hands! Fish is everywhere also.
I played 2mtts! In one no hands,speed one and i had to shove any ace,k high and the other one was a shotout with a field with 11x guys ended beating 2 tables and finished 11 for 17$!

My poker bro had a bad day and as i can see he is losing confinge! MATE KEEP UR HEAD UP! Is just a -100bb day !Look at the other guys loosing strikes! Better study and fix leaks...u know what i mean....limp fish...call loose in sb...give credit to some players!Things like that!We will talk 2moro! No credit to send you back a phone mesage!

So as i started i'm continuing saying loud: LIFE SUCKKSSS BIG TIME!

Gl guys! C u!

Well havent posted in 2-3 days and tought that i should. So the last 2-3 days for me were kind of stresfull because i had a badswing and my morale got very very low, i think this is a begginers mistake, i think it was because at the moment we can't afford to loose that much of our BR because our finances are limited atm and loosing this BR would mean that our "poker career" would end for 2-3 months until we can raise the money for another one.But with the help of my poker bro, a very good upswing and a little votka my morale is back up ♦. Hopefully i can make pokerelephant work soon so we can post some graphs.So now im going for a FL 0.25/0.50 session, alot of regular's are on at this hour and i think playing with them can and will improve my game.Will make another post after the session tell u guys how it went ♦

Lets see if i cant maintain that winning rate after another 15k hands !
