Im not playing the dirty dozen anymore, Ive moved up to the Maui.

When I did play them, I only managed to win 8%

I update my first post btw, which has all my results

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

No more i can say.

I still have 30Bi. Debating strongly whether to move down. Ive just had such terrible luck

This week:

AA - 80%
AKs - 57%
AKo - 82%
AQs - 78%
AQo - 79%
KK - 70%

I have a dilemma.

Should I move down a limit?

Pros - I have a better like 20% better ROI

Cons - Bonus expiries in 20 days.... still got $121 to clear O_o

It's a case of what is bigger over the next 20 days, your bonus or the 20%. If it's even remotely close I think you should move down as your mental state will be better with winning.

i believe your game has many leaks that you should review.Ofc it can be bad luck but it could be bad play too

down $61 for the week....

Wow villains are calling sooo loose preflop lol

Yeah ive moved down a limit. The bonus isnt very good anyway. 12.5% rakeback.

So, good start to the day, doing quite well. Oh wait ive been rivered. Ah well im still in. oh wait, ive been rivered again. And again. oh a 4th time. 5th?!

Pretty sure its not 93% to win on the river. According to my poker its 20% to win O_o

Solid days play. Nearly the $2000. Only if the cards fell my way... Still a credible 2,1,2,2

Tourny 1) Right move methinks

Actually i cant really find many interesting hands. Most of them were just people being fishes.

I think ill stay on this level for 1 more week. I really think I can win if I just keep the right mindset/get a bit lucky

8th week and I AM BORED.

No motivation really. Come home from work and im knackered. Play 4 games, get rivered a few times and stop playing. Anyway, here are some **** results...

Some things im going to do

Move up a limit. Got 35Bi so it should be ok
Not play when im tired!

Really, the moral of the story is, be tight. Very tight. and snuff the bluffers out....

you need to work you bet sizing a lot

yeah I agree, especially preflop and flop. although when you're ~96% to win on the flop, you try to maximise the pot, not take them out!

Just watched an interesting video on PS with a guy playing sngs and he was shoving any 2 cards heads up, when the blinds had got high (they had around 10BB each).

What are your thoughts on Heads up play?

I think I need to watch a lot more heads up videos....

you are never 96% on flop or preflop.You need to learn odds too then

I never said preflop. Best preflop is ~80%.

When you have you have the nuts on the flop and they need to hit 2 running cards its safe to say the odds of them hitting them are <5%

in which hand you have 95% equity?

Should have bet a bigger flop, but still the noob shouldnt have called the turn.

i would like to see a hand with <5% equity that you lost.Keep in my mind when you loose with 9% means that 1 out of 10 hands will be loose.You run bad+playing bad so standard i think
