Deposit Doomswitch. It's been going on all day long. I promise you this is making me think twice when defending online poker .... I'll only share the latest head-scratcher in today's bloodbath.

Poker Stars, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 9 Players
Hand History Converter by Stoxpoker

SB: $26.45 (26.5 bb)
BB: $118.55 (118.6 bb)
UTG: $22.65 (22.7 bb)
UTG+1: $100 (100 bb)
MP1: $35 (35 bb)

Hero (MP3): $101.50 (101.5 bb)
CO: $100 (100 bb)
BTN: $185.85 (185.9 bb)

Pre-Flop: Hero is MP3 with Q

Q

UTG folds, UTG+1 raises to $4, 2 folds, Hero raises to $13, 4 folds, UTG+1 calls $9

Flop: ($27.50) 5

2

9

(2 players)
UTG+1 bets $20, Hero raises to $88.50 and is all-in, UTG+1 calls $67 and is all-in

Turn: ($201.50) T

(2 players, 2 are all-in)
River: ($201.50) 4

(2 players, 2 are all-in)

Results: $201.50 pot ($3 rake)
UTG+1 showed 7

A

(a flush, Ace high) and won $198.50 ($98.50 net)
Hero mucked Q

Q

(a pair of Queens) and lost (-$100 net)

this is so completely standard - you are no better off than if you got QQ in vs AK preflop. nut flush draw vs non AA overpair is 12 outs so like 46% or so + backdoor straight outs as well.

is it the weekend yet?

/need a day away from work..need to get some hands in

 

[eNTy]

Just found this awesome graph.
I think it's safe to say I am not cash game material

 

[WVHillbilly]

Did you move up at the end to try to recoup your $$ (the line is very steep over the last ~1K hands)?

 

[dg1267]

Wow, enty, that graph made me feel a lot better!

 

[c9h13no3]

Super monkey tilt also has that affect.... not that I know anything about that....

Nope, all 25nl. But Saturday was a -10buyin day I believe.

Basically now, I don't know what to play.
What I'm good at, what I can win at. What I can play without going mad or having to lose lots of buyins before I get a big win if I'm lucky (MTTs ldo).
I have no clue.

 

[pantin007]

Nope, all 25nl. But Saturday was a -10buyin day I believe.

can u plz take a break

 

[eNTy]

can u plz take a break

I haven't played cash since sat.

 

[Richyl2008]

Uh oh.... made a cashout the other day too

 

[Jagsti]

FFS, ppl are getting touchy ITT. Chill out guys, it's only poker! I've lost a shit load of buy ins today and I'm still happy

You know there are games other than hold'em, formats other than full ring, ect. ect. ect.

Identify what your leaks are, and then find ways to fix 'em. It may be just folding in a particular spot, or playing MTT's instead where you won't encounter that situation very often.

well done sir

It's the new leveling for CC members. The higher you go, the more you look like a bunny. I just got promoted to "Bunny drag". Pretty awesome, imo...
