[Closed] ~Piggy Bank~

Sorry to hear that. Long distance relationship is very hard to go on with. I've been and still being in that situation since I travel quite a lot. It is hard to handle (hopefully for me, my bb is coming to see me in a month).
Anyway GL getting back on track.
Poker can help you, but it's VERY dangerous to play poker when you're upset. So I recommend, you go out with friends, take some air, have fun till you've got your mind set.
I have news... I'm on my way to take over Partypoker, with all of you in it
Will deposit today or tomorrow... So see you at the tables or at a FT on 1 of those cool MTT ♦

OMG are you serious seednoir? Now thats some great news ♦ I cant wait to play against you..really! Let me know when youll start and dont forget my nick - CAndreason and this goes for you as well Kimber :)..look me up! thanks for your post and comment Kimber, well appreciated as always hun

No need to worry I am very much so fine, as a matter of fact im feeling better than ever Still keeping in the back of my mind the thought of having the one I love at my side tho.

C-ya at the tables guys.

I dont think Ill be able to *blush* seems like there is always something to do around here..Im hooked ♦ So! When are we gonna play togheter mister seednoir? have you choose a different nick for party poker?

Im gonna try to get on IRC channel today or tomorrow...around what time are you on here usually?

Let me in some info plz

talk soon!

Christine

I'll be here all day... on IRC too.
Actually had some complications with moneybookers. Now I need to verify my address in order to deposit big, so it will take 2 to 4days from now. So I guess next Monday for sure I'll be playing at PP. I could deposit 20$, but since I'm a bonus hunter, I'll wait till I can deposit at least 200.
Damn.. as I'm writting, I'm getting very sick beats multitabling at Pokerstars. But well I'm playing SUPER conservative BRM in order to master this limit before moving up (1400bb ).

I wont get on IRC..im definitly too tired, been working all night and I just got home...Im relaxing a bit,playing 1 table, before I go to lalaland
Think Ill go watch you play a bit tho if you dont mind.

1400BB? EEK..shouldnt take that long to obtain tho..specially since youre multi-tabling. Im sticking to 1 table at all time, I prefer to see every action that are taken..always been my way.

Heading to stars - IM xxIMPACCxx on there see ya in a few

LEAKY SESSION

Hello everyone

Ive recovered from a lot of bad plays, some hands have had an unfortunate ending also...not always easy to make up your mind when you only have a few seconds to act. Today Ive added some tables, ive played between 2-3 , it's always tougher for me to play my 'A' game when im against more opps. I tend to play more the cards and less the players -result = my game is weaker.

Still I have enjoyed my session over all, took lots of notes, mostly about myself this time.

Need to find that plumber in me teehee

Happy poking everyone!

Christine

-First hand... check/fold turn and river:
There is no need to bet on a pot with overcards, just wait for a better spot and bet all streets. Actually I sometimes bet out the turn and check the river since a lot of chasers fold to a turn bet... BUT... with this flop he just won't believe you, so check/fold turn and river.

-Second hand:
The 3bet preflop was a good move: first you try to isolate the raiser(even if it didn't work) but also you're now sure that he hold a monster hand with his cap. People only tend to cap in a multiway pot with JJ+. Meaning that you fold on the flop if you don't hit the nuts.

3rd hand:
You play way too aggressive this hand. Preflop was ok. The donk bet flop was ok too since you don't have to slowplay TPTK. BUT his raise on flop was very suspicious, so what I tend to do here is CALL DOWN to the river. Your raise on flop was also a way to isolate villain but since you seem to be behind, since the 3rd guy flat called, It was better to call down till river.... People cap the flop with at least 2pairs, so with a cap on flop TPTK is 80% of the time behind. (by the way did you take note of the MP3player's screenname, he's a gold mine)

Conclusion: try not to overplay overcards and TPTK.

Hello seed

Thank you for you analyse and comments...as I said, that was a leaking day and usually I am not pushing with nothing I posted them to remind me how bad it can go if my mind isnt really at it.

Christine

Hey Guys

Wow!! What a poking day!!! Nothing more to say than its been my best day in earnings since I joined PS. A few leaks still here and there but nothing like yesterday..PHEW!! Thank good god for that...hmmm that reminds me of Pierre

Sadly my daily graph isnt working...but the monthly one does..no idea why the daily isnt tho

Been surrounded by ATMs a good majority of the day but specially tonight...was like oh yeah GIMME MOREEEEEEEE hahahhaa <--tune it up!; )

Talk soon everyone!

Christine

looks like the hard work is getting rewarded... keep it up

My day was cool too, been up 50BB 6tabling for an hour. I'm may play another session or maybe just play an tourney.
See you around!
IRC channel?

thank you seed seems like its starting to get better, we will see in the long run how things will be.

Youve done great too then..WTG still cant wait to play against ya ♦

catchya later

Christine

Really nice graph so far this month. Your daily graph wasn't working on elephant today. Theres still lots of bugs with elephant its basically still in its early stages. What version are you using? Is it the newest one? Im still using version 61. Heard there were some new things added with the latest version. Didn't want to download it because I knew there would be some bugs along with it. Version 61 may be older but it works perfectly for me.♦

see ya
matt.

hey Matt

Thank you very much! I am using the newest version 0.65. I was reading on someone elses blog that they had the same problem yesterday...

Christine

Hey guys

It had to happen soon or later right ! Nothing worked my way, plus I degenerated it by not playing so well either, I certainly could have avoided some losses but also should have won some pots that I got rivered...Sok part of the game also right/? Still/ it bothers me a weebit but not like it used to

I have attempted to multi-tabling again today mostly played 4 tables-- still cant get any reasults doing so...but ill try again 1 day sometimes this coming weekend to see if I can manage to play better and get positive results.

Christine

Hi,
I'm sorry to see that variance hit. Playing 1 table is like a knife that cuts both ways. the good point is, you can concentrate on the way you play your game. You also can take notes about the players there and make distinctions about the regulars, the tight and the loose players.
The side-effect is that you can yourself start loosen up since it can be boring when you don't get hands. This works for 2tablesalso. Another bad thing is that when you kept losing at one seat you end up having a bad session.
About multitabling, you won't concentrate on the players and that's not very good when you start playing at a new limit, but you won't have time to play loose since you don't have that time. The other good part is that you hardly lose at all of the tables (4 for example) so the swings are less apparent. Meaning that if you lose at 1 or 2 tables overall, you can end up even if you win at the other 2. The side-effect is when you're running bad after few bad beats, that can affect your play on all of the tables; that's the reason for huge downswings while multitabling. and that variance is more important when you're new at a limit maybe because of scared money.
What I recommend is that you choose what kind of style feet you the most, it can differ from one day to another. But the most important thing is to stop playing when your mind is affected by beats. If you don't wanna stop, take a 15 to 30mn break. You can take some air or do something else. I personally go read the blogs during that time. just to think about something else.
Hope that helps you!!!
GL... Stay strong!!!

did u knew about this feature...
