hey guys i got a [censored] massive problem...
I know i´m better than most of the 100nl regs at ftp and i can win at 200nl too but i just seem to do crazy random [censored] moves that are complete suicide...
like instacall or raises when i know for sure that i should be folding... i´m sure i could win easily at like 6ptbb/100 but these duck ups make me a break even player atm...
and the worst thing is it used to be different! I was beating the game at a good rate a short itme ago...

Please all the experienced guys like thac and gelford please help me out!!!

I am going through the same problem. I do very well then hit a four buyin downswing and then tilt off one or two more in bad plays before quitting. Basically meaning I have broke even for 16.5k hands now. The sad thing is approximately only 20% of my losses were due to mistakes ( I say this cause i go through all hands and tally it up). I can't even go on a decent winning streak.

Edit: 24 hr coolin off period is the bomb.

yeah i know what you mean...
after losing 1k at 100nl i´m break even now as well...

i was considering making a video of me playing 25NL just so people can see how leaky i play, plus i feel like its much easier to spot leaks making a video rather than just posting hands as peopel get to see every hand.

anyway, these headphones i found have an extra plug on them that has a microphone on it, and it has one of those microphones that you can move around...would it work just plugging it in and d/ling camtasia?

just realized i dont even know where to DL camtasia, anyone have the link?

so whats the longest amount of time anyone here broke even without having a huge downswing or upswing. huge being over 10 buyins in either direction. I am now at 16.5k hands busting my 15k hand breakeven cherry.

Monk ... easy fix, you're an idiot !


But 'jokes' aside, it's simple enough, you're plain and simply tilted. (the old exhaution, life is not fair, lucky bastards ... I'm going to show them! tilt)


In my experience there is only one cure ... stop playing for a while ... or play a different game, like sngs, stud or minbet (plo is too close imo)

Give it a rest a week or two

Re: ***uNL Microbrew Thread*** NOV 2007 (ot)
 

like this I guess. there are some swings but last 6k hands I actually been playing pretty good.

I thought my 37/35/3 experiment was loose, but I had trouble playing 3 tables and raising all the time, so I sometimes folded on the button, contrary to my strategy. How many tables was this?

I think your raise preflop is stupid here. This guy posts UTG (he's bad), he's buying in 2.90 dollars. What does that mean? Probably his last dollars. So expect a lot of gambling. I.e. no folding. So any pair will have you beat.

I think automatically raising pocket pairs without looking at stack sizes is a leak.

That's the point. The stack size is the reason I did it. The satisfaction I get from busting those guys is what I'm after.

You really need to take a look at this statement and try to figure out why its bad. You HAVE to take your ego out of your play. I hate shortstackers as well but I am not going aggrotard on them to bust them. its -ev. You do this alot and you will lose money which is a leak plain and simple. Isnt your goal to make decisions that will make you money in the long run??

stars needs a "stand up" option, so you wont have to leave the table to change seats. i emailed them about it, but i think it could happen if more people email about it
