Good job Goodguy. We have very similair months. I played a little more hands and I am up 14k so far. Our stats at 200NL looks very similair (I was 19-13 there and my WSF was about 40, I also won 10ptbb/100 but it was only 10k hands). Now I am at 400NL and our stats still looks similair despite winrate which is about half of yours which make me wonder if I shouldnt be playing 200NL like you do.
Btw. do you 8table+ ?

yes I pretty much always 6-8 table it now rarely more than that

Received the Dell 30" lcd earlier this week but I dont have the required graphics card...once I get that set up I can 9-table easily on one monitor-the thing is huge-really looking forward to utilizing it.

these stats is all u need to understand that NL is a ton easier then fixed limit if ur goal is winning $... noone playing this tight and predictable (not stealing, not defending blinds, only playing pairs, suited aces, good offsuit Aces and some connectors) could do a decent living playing fixed limit at any limit above $1/2... I guess that if there werent any television there wouldnt be any NL-games where u could win with these stats

Josh, this Ahnuld.

I played with a guy named brent r. last night who said he knows you. We donked it around at TS last night.

Best hand was when someone straddled to 35, he called blind, somebody coldcalled, and I made it 150 to go. Nobody had the stones to call, and of course I showed my 42o. Good times

hi msnl. I haven't played poker in 2 months. I'm very glad because the way my life is running I would be totally busto instead 90% busto.

see you all on irc when I get a new computer to replace the ones that were stolen from my car with everything else I own(ed). and I find a place to live instead of friends couches. which will require getting a job. did I mention I broke up with the girl I moved to la to live with? my dog died last week too, that was pretty fun. its all made me forget about my best friend who was killed in the car wreck a couple months ago.

oh yeah, I forgot, I did play some live at commerce and the venetian. down like 2500 in 1/2 games (although I admit I have a habit of going to commerce blacked out drunk)

running bad,
mason


ps: while this is all true, its also tongue in cheek. I'm smiling while I write it cause, seriously, wtf else can you do?

[TheWorstPlayer]

umm...that blows. sorry, dude.

[mason55]

I was on a life heater for like 5 years, so I knew I was due for a downswing [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

like I said though, I can sit here and smile, so its all good. just annoying haha. now get back to bitching about losing when you get it all in with the worst of it. schadenfreude and all that.

Mason,


I hope you have a pleasant September.

[RollinHand]

Yesterday was weird. I knew I was losing, but thought I was down 400 or so. Then I checked the cashier around hand 700:



I also played some omaha so I won almost everything back. Yay. :-)
