Just played another set... $44 down... gr8...

No idea where my career is going right now... I'm not sure if it's variance anymore... I've been on a two weeks long downswing now...

The play in $11 is way worse then the $6 and I can't win a hand in the $11

I'm more then mad right now.... Loosing $44 every set I play is serious money for me... And well I ain't learning shit playing vs these donks... I guess I should just grind the $6 sng's untill I have the bankroll for $22 sng's.... Or something lol I just can't beat this limit...

so stop asking me why I ain't playing the 11's

i think that 6$ and 11 $ sng are no difference at all,but yea i would go to 11 $ and if you lose 10 BI then go down to 6 $.

Man If you're having downswings then just play less tables or less SnG. Focus on 1 or 2. And go read the Psychology articles. Specially this one: http://www.pokerstrategy.com/strategy/psychology/943/ . I think that the switch to a higher level fallowed by a downswing is mostly due to that reason.

And by the way, Nice grind... Soon I'll catch up with you
How much did u started with on Pokerstars at the first place?

How much did u started with on Pokerstars at the first place?

$0..

I won $8 in some freeroll and yeah :)

But before I start my grind today I've decided I'll not step away from the $11 untill my full tilt bankroll goes under $600... So I'm officially moving up and if the downswing continues I'll either take a break or just allow it to eat my bankroll.. So I ain't stepping down at least...

wish me luck

Variance loves me....
No matter how long I throw it away it comes back like a boomerang....

I'm so sick of this..... The players are sooooo bad but they just don't loose against me... So many two outers.... So many magical rivers.... So many Ax pushed into aces during ICM.... So many slow played aces against me.... So much of everything you can think of...

I'm pretty sure it's just variance but will it ever end?.... I'm getting a session review from cannell this weekend and I'm really happy about that and I hope he finds few leaks... I run too cold... for too long time.... I could accept it if it was just few aces outdrawned... But it's just so much deeper than that :(

My graph also looks so ugly lmao.... Not sure if I should take a break tho... Atleast I'm gonna run few mtt's tonight... I'm signed up for the Early Doubles and hopefully I'll get a final table...

I'm not stepping down... If I fall I'll just stand back up.... Variance must be on my site one day? right..

My full tilt account is currently at the same place at the 1st of this month... 24 days of grinding and I'm 0$ profit... lmao

Lets hope the downswing is finally over

Graph:

Finally a day I don't loose anything... lol... I only played two sets tho... one in the morning were I was on the top of my game and wasn't getting any real suckouts untill HU... So cashed 3/4 for a nice 40$ up.... Then next set I manage to get bad beat after bad beat and some cold decks on the bubble... managed to cash one and only lost about $22... so atleast I'm a little bit up...

In the later set I made few mistakes I'll never make again... not gonna talk more about that....

I'm really happy where my game is going... It's starting to be really good... Tho the results and my skill ain't really fitting together right now :)... But I'm feeling confident about my game... I feel like I'm much better post flop player then most of the regulars on $11 and I'm pretty sure someday those gambling donks on this limit won't take all my chips... Just some day...

So I'm just trying to stay confident and hopefully I can get gold status soon so I can make my game even better... Lets hope I won't loose all my bankroll before that...

Going out for some drinks tonight. I maybe won't play anything tomorrow... well lets see how I'll be feeling tomorrow...

The downswing will end sometime right?

Maybe this is the start of a upswing

Been running pretty good today.... No major suckouts... And Finally I can win a all in while HU... I've been posting hands in the sng sample hand section... And I've been reading some articles on other sites... nothing really new but well at least I'm trying to get better :) Hope I'll be able to get gold in November... I need some new material to watch and read....

I'm still thinking about what to do with my $55 T-A-F money.. I might try titan poker but first I'm gonna check what bonus they will be giving us pokerstrategy members in the winter :)... I might try some sss journey with that money... Depends on the rakeback and stuff... I might be able to grind it up to NL100 in short period of time... And that could be really good...

Well I'll have to think off something fun to do with my $55 T-A-F Money...

I hope I can keep winning :P

The upswing arrived just on time

I came home from school and played my best set on the 11's so far... Getting itm in 3 out of 4 tables... And with some of my HU own strategy I managed to get ahead in most of them and when it reached the time I had to began playing SAGE I managed to stay away from major cold decks and suckouts... meaning 3 1st places in 4 sng's... pretty good...

Next set I only managed to get itm in one due to few coolers.... There I go all in with top pair decent kicker only to be called by a weaker pair same kicker... he rivers his set and I finish second place...

Next set I get itm in 3 out of 4 and well loose every single HU because of my 60/40 not being enough and my K7s pushed into KK :P

Good day and my Bankroll at full tilt where I recieved my starting capital almost 4 months ago has finally reached $1k... So happy about this since it has been stalling in $900 for a while :)... I don't wanna set my goals in terms of money... But Of course reaching $1k on full tilt is a big milestone for me :)

So I'm currently happy.. and yeah I'll be chasing Gold Status in the next 2 weeks probably playing little bit more then I'm used to... This makes it less time for me to talk about hands and read articles.... But really I don't have anything to read or watch untill I reach a higher status so I think I should try to get gold status quick

And the journey continues...

Hey Champ - Cold Dust Girl:

Really nice original electro band that I found few days ago... I've been listening to their stuff for few days now and I'm falling in love with their style... Check them out and also check out this video... gotta love that style slow motion lighter in the beginning looks so cool....

Graph:

I didn't play very well today... made too many mistakes... and some stuff I new that were mistakes and stuff like that :(I guess my concentration wasn't 100% for today... At least I managed to make a nice $40 profit... I'll have to work on these leaks I'm finding in my game right now...

And for the future of this blog I think I might regularly post videos of a bands and artists that not many of you know... I really enjoy listening too some underground artists and a lot of different stuff so some of you guys might really enjoy reading my blog in the future :)

@ EagleStar88 ty for the reply. Always good to know that anyone is reading this blog :)

Yup just finished another month

CunninLynguists - War:

So CunninLynguists is a hip hop group founded by Dj Kno and Deacon the Villian. In 2004 the emcee natti joined their roster. The albums by this group have been in my headphones on regular basis. Their beats are really different and Kno is in my opinion one of the best hip hop producers out there. In this song I picked for the blog today only stars Kno as he allows us to listen to this nice beat with some scratched vocal samples. He allows the rappers to rest on this joint but if your into Hip Hop be sure to check their stuff out...

CunninLynguists style is so different from any other hip hop group... Their beats have these nice sounding soul samples... And use a lot of guitars and stuff you don't hear in your normal MTV hip hop... I also thought the video was good for you guys since a lot of you seem to enjoy skiing :)

-----------------------------------

So for my poker day it went okay. I was going to play a set of 11's today. But after I had just opened one table I found out that gremmelers coaching was starting so I didn't open more tables. I lost those $12 pushing AKo into JJ... Wasn't too sad about it since now I could concentrate on the coaching... So few minutes into the coaching I found out he would only be playing 2 tables since PokerStars wasn't working... and because of that I thought I might run one $2.25 180 while I would enjoy the coaching... I soon loose my stack on a KK vs ATs all in... leaving me 900 chippies... Now I somehow managed to have some hope left and I began to play really good lag... in few orbits I had a nice stack of 6.5k... Players knocked each other out and after a while I was getting close to the bubble still with a 6k stack... it had gone up and down but still :)... Then when we are down to the final three tables I bust 6 places away from itm...

So I just busted 1min after the coach finished his first MTT coaching... i felt like it was a good coaching tho a lot of the questions asked by our fellow members were just stupid and kinda too basic to be talking about in a coaching like that... Just my opinion tho...
I learned few things from the coaching and me being happy with all the new mtt knowledge I go and register for both the early doubles. Also two $2.25 deep stack tourneys and a $3.30 6max tourney. Overall I played pretty decent... In the first $2.25 deepstack tourney I went all in with 99 in and ended in a pretty strange situation where I was able to create a squeeze situation. Somehow villian managed to call my push with KTo... Obv he managed to hit a set on the flop.

For the $3.30 6 max tourney I went all in with AKo called by TT... another lost flip... And finally for the second $2.25 deepstack tourney I lost all my stack being a hero... Yeah It costs around $5 each day being a hero...

And I managed to double cash the early doubles once again yaeaaaah... getting into the bubble on both tables with only 10bb... I somehow managed to cash both tho... for nice 16$ + Double Cash bonus... The double cash bonus is somewhere around $16 - $29... And that is okay...

So for the day I'll be around breakeven or maybe a $15 profit if you count the $15 rakeback I received today...

Yeah also since it's the last day of the month I managed to qualify for the ironman promotion. I'll both play in the $10k bronze freeroll and the one-a-day freeroll wich should be around $15k... All good lets hope I can final table one of em:P
