My first pokers blog - rake sux

Yep!

So I'm doing this mostly to keep track of my own thoughts as I continue to learn about this crazy game of poker.

$25 nl has been kicking my ass recently and its really effected my confidence in my poker game. It's frustrating, I know Im a winning player and I know I'm smart enough to beat this game, but after 25k hands I'm down 9 buyins...

I found some solace in poker tracker - I'm running 20BI below EV which is pretty sick, also I've paid another like 25 BI in rake over that period. So without running bad and without rake I'm actually a solid winner at this game.

But i can't make excuses - I've tilted away my fair share of monies in the same period. It's pretty frustrating to know your beating the game but still be down over $200.

So I think I'm going to focus on MTTs again for a bit, I run so much better in those - up $1000 in the last few months. But I've set the goal to beat at least the micro stake cash games so I'll have to return to grinding eventually.

Rakeback is key tbh. Free money or extra win-rate depending on how you look at it.

ya, rakeback will probably double your winrate.

gl dude... fwiw mtt's are probably way more variance than cash but do what your running good at I guess.
