No one is on aim, and no one wants to hear it anyway. So, I'm going to vent here. My worst day ever!

I like this graph. It shows two distinct trends. First 1300 hands shows where I was catching hands, building big pots, and get sucked out on.

The remaining hands, so a trend where I'm catching zero cards and just relentlessly losing 100% of the pots I enter.

Pretty cool.

If you want you can add me to AIM (eagleskickass99)and I'll talk to you more about it but the gist is.

It doesn't need to work often to be +ev
Yes I do it with big pairs often
You aren't stuffed to call a shove
People rarely 5bet shove without a very strong hand
So it can be very effective against people who 3bet wide

The court chose to believe Thornell, who testified that he’s played poker for nearly 40 years. He told the court that although he feels there’s skill in poker, luck ultimately prevails. He specifically noted a hand that he watched on television that had a 91 percent chance to win lose to a hand than only had a 9 percent chance to win.
