+++ August Cash Game Thread +++

[PoKeRFoRNiA]

Since nobody created this thread yet, I decided to create it. I have ran great during June. I hope to repeat it during this month also. I wish every cash game players on this forum who post on this thread become successful. Let the grind begin!!!!!

 

[Juniorsdaddy]

Going to start off my month by earning my next payment for my Deposit Bonus today. IMO FT has the best setup for deposit bonuses, at least out of the sites I have played at.

At least I did break even for the month in cash, excluding bonuses. F--- Rush Poker, but I will continue to play at the SS tables this month. The players there are extremely predictable, and I have been able to make way more than enough to counteract the higher rake. My main goal this month is to hit the $200 mark on my roll, which I should be able to do as long as I can get some good playing time in this month.

Good luck to everyone else!!!

Nice one!

Any particular things that you'd attribute this to, other than running good? Changes in your game, or maybe even lack of changes?

This SB is playing 84/48 over 60 hands. Never seen someone catch so many cards in a session with absolute junk. I feel like I'm never gonna get anywhere...

Excellent.

Really enjoyed that. It makes points that can be incorporated in to every aspect of human lives. We do have limitations and only through accepting them and working around them are we able to overcome them. It's also interesting to realise that is the only we can improve as poker players, and I assume the only way we can improve as human beings in all aspects of our lives.

We are biologically built. We do stupid things for certain reasons. Once we understand these reasons and the fact that we do them, then we can improve.

moving back to FR lol after about a year at 6max, people dont play aswell postflop or just play straightforward compared to 6max at 25nl and 50nl IMO.

Yet to play 100 FR but shall see how that goes later on in the month.

 

[Pascal-lf]

Goal is to earn 20BI this month, I'm away for 2 weeks so about 1BI per day would be lovely Currently just under evens for today

 

[LuckyChippy]

Didn't play today which sucks, hoping to put a couple of big sessions in tomorrow. Really want to put some hands in this month, go for it for the first time while doing lots of studying.

I'm a 6-max spewtard but I have fairly nitty stats and I do for FR too. Is there a serious difference in playing levels between the two? I might be interested if it's worth it.

Good to see you back to winning ways and that you didn't give up over the past few shitty months you've had. Hope it continues.
