learning No Limit Holdem - adventure & lifestyle

Tracked months so far in gaming. The small gamedev workshops for kids in school bring a lot of money for NL2 player; but girlfriend is like, "double the workload immediately"... lmao will have to negotiate probably, I have no idea what these people are up to. Could I really do 9 to 5 daily by physically going to different location in the morning? I don't think so. I'm a creative individual With a lot of money to play NL2! But the risk is too huge... could get kicked out of apartment again

Can't wait to show the "Creating main menus" example this week @education ! I am sure students want to make full games so it is a nice concept to introduce.

All solved, paid my sister back the 300€ loan. Many good and affordable poker games available in many casinos, went to Stars FL4c tables. There was one player who I remembered was a really strong regular, but I was like, let's see who he is, let's play even vs him. He decided to take me HU for some reason, and completely spewed 3 streets with complete air like two times, I was just calling with tp one time. So good news overall Also what I considered to be bad for the game (GG's aggressive campaign) is actually good for the game, I just couldn't afford those games.

Thanks for the update. very nice that you were able to pay back your sister the 300 euros and also nice you found this game mentioned.

Thanks. Is like a dream scenario, I have wished for a long time to be able to casually play these games (up to $0.50 BI).

"Creating main menus" lesson very successful among children, they have gradually moved to a point where they can imagine complete games.

Had this money goal of my gaming activities, profit. So the goal was +0€/month; now it is +100€/month currently for this year. Super nice to play poker and focus on the game now when the money goal is gone (fulfilled).

I have reached 10,000 hands this year in NL2 cashgame; with 46 hours of gameplay, with an impressive 220 hands/hour, multitabling ratio 2,3. I have been running pretty well, +35bb/100.

Nice result over a considerable sample size.

Well played!

Thanks. We always lack data, right. In the old days people said you need at least 100k sample to tell anything about the level of the player...

€0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 2 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (BB): 102.5 BB
SB: 129.5 BB (VPIP: 42.86, PFR: 42.86, 3Bet Preflop: 33.33, Hands: 8)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 8♠ T♣

SB raises to 3 BB, Hero calls 2 BB

Flop: (6 BB, 2 players) Q♥ T♦ 5♣
Hero checks, SB bets 3 BB, Hero calls 3 BB

Turn: (12 BB, 2 players) 3♦
Hero checks, SB bets 8 BB, Hero calls 8 BB

River: (28 BB, 2 players) 2♥
Hero checks, SB bets 28 BB, Hero calls 28 BB

Hero shows 8♠ T♣ (One Pair, Tens)
(Pre 43%, Flop 87%, Turn 93%)
SB shows 7♣ A♥ (High Card, Ace)
(Pre 57%, Flop 13%, Turn 7%)
Hero wins 78.5 BB

Who has ever played FLHE, knows how lovely the "check-call River" can be...

Although that is technically true, you can often get a feel for a player in a hundred hands. Notes are important, too. I get lazy and forget to take notes.

Yes when tablestarting 6max FLHE for HU action in 2013, I was like: "I need to be able to tell who the player is in 3 seconds..." I usually even succeeded as these were often easy opponents from casino games, trying out their luck in flhe6maxhu, losing $50 and quitting...

NLHE is totally different game though, let's say in FLHE I have 1million+ hands of experience, but in NLHE I have like 100,000 hands of experience. That is the big "problem" I am trying to solve...♦

Reading a really good book, "Poker Therapy"... was ready for this content. There it says, playing poker is practicing sports, but we interpret it as "danger" and "dangerous". Then we try to change ourselves from this wrong perspective: "if I would win more, the danger would end"; but this leads nowhere. In fact there was nothing wrong with us to be corrected, we were practicing sports... GL!

Interesting idea. I have noticed that in critical situations my heart rate increases in a typical "fight or flight" reaction. For example, if I hold the second nuts (or worse) and an opponent raises all-in.

Yes the goal here in this learning is to restore clear, logical thinking in those type of scenarios. I remember when I was in FLHE training, they said, you have to be ready for that River check-raise before making the River bet.

Super nice to have other goals than money goals. Down -1,5 stacks in today's session, but totally happy. Now I suddenly have the money to play NL2! (no money goals are disturbing that practice)

Will start to develop DeerPoker soon, you know the full-screen poker app, that takes you to amazing world of cyber poker, there's only one thing with it... it's all fake.

GL if it's ready im looking forward to add browser support so you could both play and download it from my homepage.

All fake? So he won't be able to buy his cigarettes? Wondering who is to blame for. The Africans or the Eastern Europeans...
Good luck and great success with the project.

I'm wondering if I should as give a shot next year to either the dungeon crawler, economic simulator or food building game. Almost gettting me hooked. Unfortunately I'm too old for your classes.

All I have come up so far is that there is possible to enter a cave and SB and BB buttons are spinning really fast in a circle. Press F to you-know-what.

It's mostly 7to15 year olds at the classes, it would be way too easy for you.
