As for my poker, does anyone else swing as much as me? Last night (July 3rd into morning of July 4th) I went on a 12+ buyin "downswing" at $25 NL, I simply couldn't win.. I had KK run into AA I remember vividly for one stack, and I was able to get KK against AJ on a J10x flop where he hit an A on the river for another stack... and I also lost a $93 pot with AA to QQ on a Qxx flop in which I just called his bets and river was a Q and he had QQ... go figure...

Here's my last 7,000 hands at $25 NL the past couple of days... basically I went down like 12 buyins or so yesterday, and then now I'm on like a 17 buyin up swing.. lol

Brag or beat? Lost 12+ buyins in one night at $25 NL, only to win back all of it including almost up 16 buyins my last 5k hands.









Here's the 5 biggest pots I've been in or seen at my tables in at $25 NL since July 2nd (12,000+ hands), 5th biggest to biggest...

I usually average about 1 pot a month (60k-100k hands a month) that is 400+ BB's.. it's 4 days into the month and here's my first one... lol, I call this hand "I have AA, I cannot lose" ...

bumping my longest post ever for some consolation lol

lol if u call their support tel line, u get some india dude who barely speaks english.

[HBomb]

lol, I cannot stand companies that are generally American but outsource their customer support over seas to different countries. It seriously makes you feel like you're just another person they have to deal with in their boring days.

[danny8]

Hbomb,

i'm c/f the turn in hand 1

the AA hand is a crappy spot, in game i prolly play it the same. reads would really help though.

in the JK hand, cbet the flop! this is a great flop to cbet, he usually wont have hit this at all. bet more on the turn... at least ~$1.2. rivers good [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[HBomb]

I found out that at $25 NL that everytime I c-bet with something that can very well be behind to most callers at $25 NL that it has been doing nothing but inflating the pot for me, so I was trying out a new method yesterday throughout the day by c-betting some flops and checking on others... I got decent results overall though with it.

I just feel like I'm playing too much like a robot when I c-bet 98% of the flops I see, I tend to get the same few guys who pick up on it and raise me just about all the time.

[moneybreaker]

I'm fairly sure this doesn't deserve a new thread:

Can anyone tell me what to make of overbets in unraised pots?

example:

Party Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $81.57
CO: $54.09
Button: $19.31
SB: $71.74
Hero: $53.45

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is BB with two cards
UTG folds, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($1.5, 3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">CO bets $2.5</font>, SB folds, Hero folds.
Uncalled bets: $2.5 returned to CO.

Results:
Final pot: $1.5

CO is after ~30 hands 47/0/2.6. Is this really opponent dependant, or does it usually mean the same from any (bad) player at these stakes?

[HBomb]

It screams I am a donk and want to play this hand for stacks

[NL Newbie]

dunno why i bother with poker.

Khigh flush lose to ace high, JT on KJT get raised on turn all in... Awesome.

[censored] POKER, After this month i probably wont playit.

[EMc]

Vegas rules. Remind me to give a full trip report when I am coherent.
