so been playing a lil more live cash poker . really frustrating week. dropped a couple of dimes over about 5 sessions


like not been playing great but been rather solid . keep making no hand but seam fine with the spots that develop. as I'm one of the more nitty regs with a lot less spew they decided there gonna keep making 2pair plus vs me and just take my dollar with shit odds and facerolls

i do a lot of limp reraising. my general game is sit to the right of the most aggro player who likes to make it 7 pre relentlessly. generally trap 40 or 50 squid in the middle before i pop it up.
last time out he wasn't in the game so sat with all the terrible regs and sat and peddled.

my last hand i get the young aggro dude to try donate 400 to me but he failed with a lil help from the deck. the hand bugged me cause its one of the few spots u can bet call off with ace high and know your ahead when 200bigs each are in the middle(not optimal played but with op tendencies it was like taking candy from a baby except this baby had some kind of aggro spakka deck assistance working in sync with his powers). though i aint been doing well in these pots over the last 15months sulking does not change anything.

anyway river completes his hand and i go home pissed off again.

now i was a bit pissed of with my reaction to losing as i been working hard on zero emotional attachment to any hand of poker but as I've done in all my comp winnings from the other week I'm cash busto again so I'm out of the game until i spin up some more dimes to get back in action.


been out of action sucks hard but i guess been busto i get time to smell the roses :/


pokerstars having the 10mill sunday millions in a few weeks thats going to be crazy.
i think i have a stake for it on a 40/60 freeroll so bit of luck i do somet in that as my cut of 2mill(800k) could be of use right now (sounds depressing thinking about a 1 in 10k shot of me actually winning but i guess someone has to)

other news my horse has started to stop losing. i decided i was going to quit him but he had a few hundo dollars left so I've left him with the task of doing whatever the fuck he wants. if he loses it I'm done as i aint sending him no more..

weather in the uk absolutely sucks at the moment. don't want to get out of bed to face coldness

should be going to macau in the spring if all gos to plan.

i have held on to a property for a while and now seams like a good time to get the cash out of it and sell it. will get a shitty price but I'm not keeping it for any other reason then sentimental ones . it was my 1st home and i been letting it for the last 7 years or so .
a lil part of me dies if i sell it but ho hum fuck it gamboooool. whats life without been in action. just hopefully I'm a lil wiser and don't flick in strippers and what not too often with the proceeds.


anyway rant over .

ive been playing live 5/10 for a little over 3months (post black friday), and all i can say is 1. it is always best to just have position on the fish. If you have some aggro guys to your left then when someone raises you can start flatting monsters if they are going to be squeeze happy. 2. in my experiece limp reraising is really bad if you are going for value, because in my experience you get A LOT of folds (what has your experience been, any value in limp reraise bluffing with some range?). 3. In my experience there isn't a ton of value in like raising 22-99 (early position), so I often just limp them to set mine. But yeah obv just play position etc. A lot of the aforementioned is somewhat obv? I don't know. I don't what if you have been 3betting much? I pretty much 3bet nearly 0 percent of hands, unless it will look really bluffing (a squeeze, or we have some history), because I think I can get a lot of value from them postflop (people kinda fold to 3bets a lot?). I'm probably losing out on a ton of value by not 3betting for value, but I'd like to hear what people have to say (assuming at least 100bbs deep in most cases, most often 150bbs +). People get real scared once they see you flat AA and KK a couple of times (they often give up when you call them ip because fuck you can have ANYTHING, so you can float them etc and still rep a ton of strong shit)...blah blah GL at the tables. Last but not least, no one ever bluffs so just fold if someone puts money into the pot (IMO), and just value town them.

yer most of what u say computes but i limp reraise and always get one caller who generally folds the flop a lot if i c bet . (i should have a lot of shit in this range generally with my image and how they perceive me. I've had it and just checked to them and allowed them to try bluff me a few times and thats winning me a few pots cause they presume i must have ak as they can't help but try buy pots if they think they can run me over.. .


i quite happy been really nitty of late while i work out exactly what all the regs are upto .but also as I'm under rolled for the game I've not really given myself much scope to make a lot of moves and splash around applying pressure . there is many ways to skin the game a lil patience and il start making moves as my confidence grows again. I've not played great but its hard to loosen up when I'm under pressure to try win.


thank you for your thoughts its made me think i could/should have some bluffs in limp reraise spots if there folding.

set mines are great they fill my heart with warmth that some tooool who can't read hands is guna give u a chunk of money when u spike
