lol after one thousand hands at nl50 things are looking terrible ♦
may have to move down very quickly!!!! 
i'm working away from home all this week and have 12 weeks of lessons from another poker training site that I keep thinking of looking at, this week is all about studying!!
im going to spend at least 2 hours per night going through all the lessons, only problem is they are bss articles, but what the hell, cant do any harm considering the massive tilt session I have just had
Spent this evening posting crap on the german forum, I have no idea what they are saying but it makes me laugh ♦

getting even with the germans after they caused closure of the underwear blog eh? Good! ♦ ♦ ♦
Still working away from home so not many posts at the moment in the forum.
Have spent lots of time working through the poker course I bought last year but never managed to get round to doing!
Have switched to 6 max which i'm really enjoying.
Going to play at nl4 for a while to get the hang of so few players compared to FR lol
I think 6 max bss maybe my game, I'm running at 29bb/100 and finding the games extremely soft. fingers crossed.
Here is a crazy hand I just played cant believe what they called me with lol

U can semibluff the Turn as no one has a Q so you can profitably bluff the River as well sometime

Hey Roo, I'm a newcomer to your blog - it's amazing.
Please forgive me though. When I first saw this photo, I thought you had photo-shopped Bobby Kennedy onto the picture.
D'oh!

hey roo nice hand, but prolly coulda taken it down on turn win more doing that in long run bet pot size to pot build and push weak hands out of the equation
nice winrate! how much sample size is that ? you say 29bb/100 but how many hands is that played?
Hey Andrew

Not many hands at the mo for sh nl4 as i'm only playing one table at a time !! just checked my hem 564 hands 34bb/100.......there must be a downswing on the way
I only switched to sh hand last week

dude, 576 hands isnt a good sample size. your experiencing nice variance. just continue to play your best poker and reevaluate at like 10k hands a win rate of 10-15bb / 100 is pretty solid at these levels.
but also at these levels we are trying to get out of result oriented thinking and move more into just making the best poker decisions possible. playing our absolute best poker cheers
on the A-T hand where he got quads, do you have any of his stats to post? HEM should be easy to export stats to the forums here

I love it when I get the absolute nuts, its a challenge to try and extract their chips the best way you know how..its different everytime

Hey roo, lame cooler with the quads, but it happens to err'body someday. What videos are you watching? The MSS knowledge pool is definitely a little stagnant. Hope it's helping with the win rate!
