WOW you have a sick BB/100 imo. Huge profit for 2 tables of $5 6max.
I play 6 or 4 tables of 5nl FR and about $10 profit after 3K hands. But I buy in with $5 too. For one I dont have the BR to play with $10 buy ins and second I also want to get used to play with 100BBs. Imo If you're rolled for $10 why would u want to do it at 5nl when u can do it at 10 nl ?

Well I was rolled for it, but it was from tournament wins, so I wanted to start out building a bankroll from cash instead. I'm still getting comfortable and learning the ring game. If I'm running well after I hit 10k-15k hands @ 5NL I'll take a jump up or add another table eventually, guess I'll figure that out when I get there

 

[Irexes]

Hmmmm 73 left in the $22 rebuy, I have a average stack. I have comprehensive notes on villain so I'm very happy when he shoves..

win this and I'm 10th, which of course butters no parsnips

Of course the beat isn't that bad, but it's his thought process that intrigues me. It's an aggressive table and I've been card-dead and very anonymous for the last hour.

[BelgoSuisse]

it's his thought process that intrigues me.

SmokMyBandit: shows [8c 7c] (a pair of Sevens)

Possible thought process: if he thinks you only call his shove with AA, then medium suited connectors is the best hand he can use to make this play.

 

[Irexes]

Very true belgo


(though I've seen him do the same with KJo!)

 

[ChuckTs]

cool

[zachvac]

ugh, today sucked, AA < KK times 2 and KK < AA once. Also AA raises preflop, I flat and flop a set, AA stacks flop and rivers 2-outter . Also stacked combo draw vs. top set and didn't hit, somehow only down 3 buy-ins, playing a 5400 now as well, if I win that I won't have any complaints about the day.

 

[Monoxide]

Little bits of swong here and there but for the most part a good day....

 

[Dwilius]

om*g...

$.50/1...IveArrived wins the main pot ($639.85) with four of a kind, Tens

 

[ph_il]

So far

Yeah..not a big sample. I play when I can...

 

[WVHillbilly]

Time to move up in stakes Phil. You're crushing nl2, nl5 and 10 should be similar.

 

[Jagsti]

In theory I should not be unhappy that I'm 10 buy ins up this month

Wowowow.

Wow thats sick, I love it.



On another note im looking at my KK history for the past 500 big pairs and ive lost like -$600 just by playing kings, omg run bad?

Everytime I play kings I lose, its so nasty. Guy shoves with flop on FD, hits on river, guy calls my big reraise and I get sucked in because he hit a set on the flop, lose KK to AA coolers a whole bunch, its so sick!

 

[ph_il]

Time to move up in stakes Phil. You're crushing nl2, nl5 and 10 should be similar.

I wouldn't say 'crushing' just yet, but I'm doing well. VPIP is bit low still, IMO. Everything else is looking ok...?

 

[Monoxide]

No thats pretty much crushing, move up imo!! Ur prolly way better than the microdonks, and could easily beat the "low" limits.

(i think everyone has told you this though)

 

[WVHillbilly]

39BB/100 is the very definition of crushing.

 

[blankoblanco]

hm, i'm up x dollars this month, which should be like 5x, but that's because i've played only y this month when i really should have played at least 10y

don't know if that's satisfying or not tbh. one thing is for sure, i am one lazy ****

 

[switch0723]

but at least the boomers are going to rape the team event!!

 

[tenbob]

-3BI session, 2 of them to sick beats, a 1 outer and a 2 outer.

 

[SavagePenguin]

I lost 2.5 buy ins a couple nights ago. I deserved most of it though. I tilted bad, and put chips in with almost masochistic intentions.

 

[zachvac]

but at least the boomers are going to rape the team event!!

lol, thanks needed a good chuckle

 

[Monoxide]

Weeeeeeeeee, 1st in 24$ 45 man for $410

 

[bw07507]

Well today officially sucked

 

[dg1267]

BW, can you quit posting those!

I'm trying to get my g/f to let me put some monies on my games and buy books and HEM and stuff. You're ruining it!
