I actually fired up TM for you and checked that I had 6 [ SIX ] consecutives OOTMs in the past 49 days.

[/ QUOTE ]
I've had a losing streak of 9 in a row, and have had 24 losing streaks that lasted 6 games or longer. (granted, that's out of 5100 games total, not just the past 49 days)

On the other hand, I've had a winning streak of 12, 2 streaks of 11, a streak of 10, 7 streaks of 9, and a total of 71 winning streaks 6 games or longer. Guess I won't complain too much.

wow shipurstack, bad beat BUT u r kinda insane to play these limits IMO.

[shipurstack]

that guy seemed good, but the guy i played at the 550 was ridiculously passive

[abcjnich]

beat: dropped 10+ BI at 1/2 tonight. Lost about half of it due to tilt but i was playing terribly as it was.

brag: sat down at 4 different regs tables (who i've played in the past with my A game) at 2/4 and no one would play me.

beat: worst day of poker in about 2 months. then again, over the past week or so i was on a 7k upswing, not just from cash games, so i'm still not doing bad.

I am new to the forum, but I just realized that HU is one of my better games, so I am going to start concentrating on it.

Here are my October graphs so far:







Is 33BB/100 good?

Running hot, ftw!

i took about half the money you gave to one opponent you played tonight - at least i assume it was your money since he had like a 5.5BI stack when i sat down and was terrible. so if you want it back come and get it [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

actually you can probably get it back more easily from the 80/50/3 i donated almost 4 buyins to after he got me on flush over flush (twice), set over set, trips with ace kicker vs trips with king kicker and backdoor straight vs flopped set. just check to see if he's running like god - if not you should be set.

after raising to 6 and calling a 3bet of 42 with t6o (and winning)
me: t6o?
him: it's hu.
him: play the player, not the cards.

obv he knew my doomswitch was on so he could call with atc.

Maybe this isn't normal. I run 61% at at the 5s, and still can't figure out the tens. No, seem to hit a bad run at the tens every time I move up.

As you can see, my peaks are getting higher. (woooooooo!)

[hra146]

what a match.

set over set after one min. guy has 40 chips left and comes back to 1.7k. I grind him back down to 900, in SAGE mode Im dominated like every single hand until A4 finally > K4

he was from p5s. lol. Really friendly though, we talked a bit.


pheee

[hra146]

oh yeah and I was tilted before and decided to chase my losses at a 110$+5


Im glad I still run good

(yeah, totally standard, but as my first 110$ it had to be posted)




One question: Now that Im playing the 55s I realize that you occasionally meet decent opposition;

1) How does the game softness change from now (friday evening) to a say tuesday afternoon / evening? Is it significant?

2) Is this a good time to think about getting a coach? When playing regs or good players I often find myself wondering whether anybody has an edge here. I guess 55$ regs are exploitable too but will I find out (how to) on my own?
