Nice!Then we were two
I was pleased to watch anette15 win the WSOPE London main event. Her aggressive style is trully amazing.

My daily update - well, the big downtime of mansion server and lack of time to devote to poker caused playing less than 1k hands those 2 days,but it is what it is...Good thing is my downswing is finished, and im even money from where it started
Current bankroll :652$

nothing to do with a downswing, just sort of daily variance)

is 600bb just variance?
I guess so, doesnt make it less painfull though :)


yup I like anettes play I try to be as possitional as possible like her. You play sngs and mtts or strictly cash atm? personally I find cash so hard good on ya for doing so well. I just can't stand cash because its hard to finish a session. Sngs nice and simple start and a finish :)

Well, I played some sng's and had success in them also, but I prefer cash,as table selection and notes/stats on players are crucial for fast winnings.Also, a bad suckout is not so fatal,as it is in a SnG.And when it gets 3handed or HU i become overaggressive, and my game is often poor at that point :)
I will try my chances with a MTT soon, but still havent got the time to do it..I usually keep my sessions in a strict timely manner (2h from the first table entering to the deactivation of the auto-blinds post), so I dont come running "recovering" lost money during a session or staying cause I run good.But mainly, Im playing cash because of some particular fishes i hunt on the tables - easy money is not worse money

===============================

My Daily update - Nothing special today, won about 300BBs, still struggling with my objectives - hands per hour in Mansion and their points DO SUCK.
I actually did watch a friend of mine play a satellite with 4 packages for ECPT Madrid. He managed to qualify through another satellite, and somehow managed to get to the final table.From there, I started watching.
I was amazed by the poor play in that final table - ppl looked more like playing a 2$ turbo SnG rather than 13k$ prizes.It was push-or-fold mode for some of them, and still, they kept limping,min raising, chasing draws on the flop, raising for 3/4 of their stack and then folding,and so on...soo passive play.So my friend was 5th and had about 6 BB's and it was obvious to me that everyone should wait for him to bust out, but no - another one decided to reraise the chipleader's raise with his 30BB all-in.. He showed 88 and went 5th against the KK's.So my friend is going to Madrid, and Im regretting I wasnt participating in this soooft and passive satellite


Hi, we played together today
We even had a nice situation - we were all in - i had a straight to the ace and need a 10 :club: for the royal flush and you had queens full of aces-I didnt get my 10 NH anyway!
Looking towards reading your blog

==========================
Ok my daily(weekly) update.
ITs been a little more than a week since I started playing FR BSS,and so far, Im pleased with myself.I managed to reach the $700 mark, played about 5500 hands and kept nearly 20bb/100 so far, which is far more than I expected.Ill stick to the plan, do another 4500 hands and move to the next limit, if the bankroll still permits it(anything can happen ).Unfortunately,I must focus on studying in RL, so I wont be able to make 5-6k hands a week as i did this one, but speed shouldnt be a concern for now.
You shall hear from me on a daily basis, as usual I dont stop bugging you :) :)

Feel free to comment my stats,and good luck to you all(except for those who play against me ofc )

hehe)) nice stats, agressive limping?

TAG's stats are:
Vpip - 13-20%
PFR - 7-13%

as you can notice, the gap between VPIP and PFR is 6%. Your gap is 13%) This means that you limp a lot.

your wts is too high as well, 19-25 is something standard. The sample is too small though, especially, given your upswing and the amount of limped pots you play)

Thanks for pointing out the standarts xylere!
I do limp a lot , with connectors,suited aces, suited one gappers, and facecards. That is, when I find that the table is somehow loose passive.I allow myself to lose a lot of small pots, just to win the big ones.Maybe i ts only a wrong impression, but people tend to call my pf raises more loosely when they see me playing in many pots(even the limped ones).Maybe Im getting the reverse psychology effect as Im working on my table image and I do some advertising, although it may be totally useless on this limit.Ofc, with so many limped pots, I often get top pair with low kicker or mid pair, and even when Im pretty sure I have the best hand, Im playing it passively,thus going to a showdown a lot
================
My daily update-
Nothing spectacular, won two buy-ins and then lost them in a 3 handed action. 3 People just cant beat the rake. +30BB for today I rule :tongue:

just raise those hands in late good spots, isolate limpers in position) I don't think overlimping is a great adjustment) I would definitely reconsider the preflop range, 15/10 probably

I agree with xylere, it's better to raise those hand from late position to put pressure on your opponents, you will pick up more pots in that way because of your aggression. good luck!

xylere and Zeffke, thanks for the advices.
I do raise marginal hands from late position, but what to do withthem from middle and early(on really passive tables) position? I limp...

Havent had updates for a few days, just was away to study, and today was the first I played poker. Nothing new, went about even,just to lose a stack with mid set to top set on dryyyy rainbow board.But nothing new,just daily variance

I limp...

I fold..;)

in loose-passive games, you can loosen up from midlate, late. Ep is still ultra tigth)
