Re: All My Money Are Belong to Me (NC Thread)
 

OK, so here's my NETeller story. I see Wooks post about getting our money, so I put in my withdrawl request. Just so happens it is the same day I get an e-mail from Full Tilt about a 50% deposit bonus. I turn to my wife and say, "I think I need to do some bonus whoring again". She's like, "whatever". And I'm like(in the back of my mind), "cool".

So I read the e-mail from FTP and it says I can deposit using a credit card. I'm thinking, well I've tried that in the past and it didn't work, but what the hell, I'll give it another try. Um yeah, it worked, cool.

So I drop $200 on there and get the 50% bonus and log in and try and find a table. I see some 30+% tables with pots>$10 so I open up a couple and buy in for the default. I figure I'd just grind this bonus out at .5/1 and see how it goes. I'm playing my game, taking it easy, winning a few pots and thinking, "Damn, it sure is nice to see some pots over $20 again". I play a few more orbits, win a few more pots and then notice I'm throwing 2 bucks in on the turn and the river. wtf? Holy [censored], I'm playing 1/2. Cool. These guys suck. lol. So I'm up about 40bb and thinking to myself that I need to just take the win and run, but I can't stop playing. My stack keeps swelling and I'm starting to get flashbacks from a year ago. Anyway, I think I ran super hot(well I know I did), but I'm gonna stick with it for a while and see.


Here is my sick ass start:

Oh, btw, my last 7k hands were 6 max. I must say, it has definately improved my game and switching back to full ring is a very nice change of pace.

Just got off the phone with my girlfriend. I knew that her neighbor who was a close friend of the family had recently died and her family was going to put the house up for sale. My girlfriend's mom didn't like the people who were going to buy the house, so her parents put up the money to pay for it themselves. Her parents don't need the house, so they are giving it to my girlfriend for half cost. We've been looking to buy a house together for about a year, and now we're getting one.

(Footnote for Wookie: The house is nice, but it's in a worse location than Potsdam.)

sorry about the blow up in the last nc thread. Really wasn't called for. I lost 1/4 my bankroll in those two sessions. Very humbling. My camp trip this weekend couldn't have come at a better time. I think I'll take the advice to drop a limit for some hands to boost the confidence back up when i get back.

Speaking of Neteller, if you guys just got gifted with $3k you'd assumed was long gone, what would you treat yourselves with? Yes yes, hookers and blow, but presume you already HAD hookers and blow.

I have a Wii and don't really need another console, I have the large TV, home audio makes the list, I don't play golf, I got a roll for 5/10 and 3k wouldn't quite roll me for 10/20. I'm going to be playing 100 NL for the next bit, anyway.

Wook.. what are you BR standards? I know you're rolled for 5/10 cuz you play it all the time as what seems to be your main game. What I don't understand is how another 300BB @ 5/10 doesn't get your roll to play 10/20.

Say your standards are 500BB and you currently have only 650BB for 5/10.. add another 300BB to that and you now have 475BB for 10/20 (that's pretty close.. at least close enough for a shot or two).

My vote... take some time off and go to Vegas or a nice little vacation that doesn't even have to include any poker.

I guess you could always pay off your student loans assuming you have any... I know.. way to responsible and practical.. what do you expect from someone my age [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, my BR standards have usually been at least 500 BB. Currently, I'm at about 450 for 5/10. I've posted my graph, so you might remember that I'm just pulling out of some bad variance. I'd been playing a little shy of my usual requirements, anyway. This 3k, if I put it all towards poker, would put me at about 375 BB at 10/20, and I'm not comfortable with that. 10/20 is a much tougher game than 5/10, so I'd probably want more than 500 BB to make it my home. Should I take a 50 BB shot? Well, hmmm. Honestly, variance has been less than kind to me lately, so it's trained me to think that that 50 BB would be lost quickly before I could recover and start winning again at 10/20.

Probably the biggest reason for me not to, though, is that I plan to spend the next couple months getting back into NL. I'm mostly just not interested in taking a shot at 10/20 instead of taking up NL. Now, after a couple months, and especially if I add some winnings to my roll, we'll see about looking up 10/20. If that's the case, though, I'll either have some NL winnings to add to my roll and to use to take a shot, or else my confidence will once again be shot and I'll want to play some 5/10 to recover any losses before even considering it.
