i thought it did...thats why i don't understand why i cant get HEM to import my hands from FTP into its database...really pissing me off

They're in a different location? Or something like that. I reformatted my hard drive 'cause my new computer was freezing and re-installed. HEM wasn't picking up Rush at first either. Check the HEM forum.

Meh... up and down. Heart wasn't into it. Felt like a grind.

Took about an hour to get 11.76 points.
Down only $2 for the session, including the $4 buy-in I lost right away.

Still up $14 for the week... 2 more days to get $5.

Yeah same, I've seen a good few playing.

Rush week has made the games really nitty though. Ave. pot rarely above $0.55/$0.60 and VPIP 18-19. Bring on the weekend fish hopefully.

Another day done, won $51.11 today. Boy it feels great to run good on a friday night where people are stacking off with top pair no kicker. My best session ever too. :D

My promotion update:
$73.54 won on the tables + $25 bonus guaranteed.

Maybe I should consider making rush my main game, but then again this promotion is probably attracting a lot of fish.

FAIL

Geez... I'm such an idiot.

I started playing around lunch today... got a few points, got tired, went to take a nap.

Woke up later and started playing during my usual late evening time and realized that the clock had struck midnight on the east coast over an hour ago. There is no freaking way I could have gotten 10 points on "Saturday"...

So my 4-days was a failure. :( Even though I did get 20 points total over the week...

However, I'm still up over $16-17 for the week, so I guess I can't complain too much. :cool: :cool:

I ended up getting the $10. Down a little over 2 BI so almost broke even.

Anyone qualify for FR by reaching the final table of a rush tourney?

On the other hand, i'm about $1100 below EV for the week, and fishes seem to have a god given right to hit when they set mine in 3bet pots not even 100bb deep, so $250 is really pocket change.

Finished the promo, stuck to 50 pts a day tho and made money, so all is good. Tried one rush tourney, didn't make final table.

Ran awful today. Fish were trying crazy bluffs and hitting their two outers, the rare times I'd make big hands and got action they'd suckout, lost 4BIs in two hours. There's something about Sunday that makes me lose, it's the only day where I have a negative win rate.

Still ended the week up $43.5, that's 2.23 BB/100. Could have definitely be better but I won't complain. I'm also going to get twice the rakeback I would have (because I'd probably play only for the 50 points) and, of course, there's the $50. Nice boost to my BR, if it wasn't for today's loss I'd be pretty close to move up in stakes.

Also, rush is a very good training platform for multitabling, now that I'm going back to the normal tables 3tabling them like I used to will seem slow, so I guess it's time to add at least one more.

I actually found the games nittier this week than usual. So many people sitting with min buyins just folding every hand. Average pots and vpips were lower than usual imo.
