Pretty sick heater in SnGs yesterday, but guess where did I loose all my winnings?
That's right. CGs!

Busted 1 fish at one table and I join his next table. He flames me for my call, I flame him and chalange him to a HU CG _biggrin:
The guy was like 60/40.
So I opend a 0.5/1 table and sit down. Turn down a few people.

Then, with only 1 SnG left, I guy sat down and I decided to play a little bit (guess what, needed points).

Results latter, LIVE GAME NOW!

I'm starting to feel a little bad about these posts. They are either to whine or to say how I lockboxed something :f_biggrin:

Made 2nd in yesterday's live game (12 man SnG). Floped a str8 to bust a KK (AI flop), called a <10BB push over my raise with AJ and cracked another KK.

Last month was pretty bad. That's the reason for all the crying in this blog.
Not only I was down, but ev line looked pretty bad. Guess it makes every poker player wonder if things are allright...

-604.50 / -4.6%
-512.98 / -3.9% EV

Rakeback: 295.38

March super sick, April super bad.

Keep improving... _cool:


ouch.. doesn't look nice.. better luck in May!!

Probably in the end of may, so I heard.
I guess it will help, I think even taking a quick look trough the video already helped a bit. Can't wait for <3's comments

Did ok in the live game yesterday.

Some spots to think about.
I open CO 2.5x with KK, BB 3bets to ~7bb. I was opening a few hands and the guy was deff capable of making a move. He was super spewy post flop.
I decided to 4bet, but I think I made too obvious I wanted a shove. He folded.

I was one of the shorts and made a close BU push on the buble because I wanted to make a stand to the other short guy, that he would have to make a move cause I wasn't blinding off. Not sure if it was -ev or how much. Hard to put BB on a range.

Pretty tilting buble. Shortie doubles with A4 > JJ. Few hands latter, blinds at 250/500, CL opens to 1.5k and folds to a 4k shove _mad:
Got lucky a few hands latter when the shortie busted with KK < 66.

I think I busted in 1st or 2nd hand of 3 handed play. Was the shortest and pushed A2o on BU, got called by 99.
Pretty fishy move by me, cause I only looked at the As and snap shoved. The guys noticed :f_mad:

Today online grind...

Only 26 STTs today. Horrible run.

Games where reg infested at some point so I decided to play some $11 HU SnGs.
_cool: Won 7 out of 7 _cool:
Obv ran super hot. But it's a pretty cool format. Will probably play some of these once in a while. Good for post flop play learning (aka spewcontrol for me).

SnGs this month: 166 (goal 500+)

_Anonymous_ Topic starter

Goal is 500/month, not that much :f_biggrin:

9 tabling continuos when possible

Edit: I don't get more than 500 cause I only play 3 days/week. Sometimes I add sunday or friday, but only a few games.

Ahhhh FT. Why can't you make me sleep happy?
Not much to complain, awsome day, it's just that I had decent volume already and decided to play a few more games cause tables were nice. Lost a few BI.

Marked a few hands I played vs mr <3 to review latter.

Month is going great too, just that fing ev line has a magnet with the 0 line.

I mean, I have leaks, for sure, but I see regs with a higher ROI (SS) making some basic buble mistakes that I would never make. :rage:

Imo post them in the hand evaluations... I enjoy <3 talking about how he would exploit himself...
_cool:

get at me on skype if you want to discuss some of those spots... reg vs reg dynamics are always fun discussion

Variance is fun... but yea mark those guys that look like they've never heard about ICM before.. it's one of the most important notes you can take on regs.. Makes exploiting them soooo easy.. almost to the point where I rather play those regs than fish..

Probably not, just standar p/f, steal/resteal spots. I'll take a look latter.
