i think i met this guy at turning stone and he was an idiot, if that explains it

[/ QUOTE ]

He also was pretty weird. My first instinct was to punch him in the face because we got into a rules dispute (I'm the opposite of a rules nit, however if i think im right, well... you guys know me, i can be dogmatic i suppose). Then we played a bit and I thought he actually was kinda nice. He had an unusual style and in certain games prob crushes. online he claimed to be a huge loser, and I think that is prolly accurate. his name is jared, fwiw.

I know this isn't a limit thread but...

played some hu limit for the first time in forever this week, after switching full-time to nl. Last night, I came home from the bar pretty drunk and loaded up a 30/60 lim hu table (lol bad idea). I ended up playing for about an hour and a half and took 3k off some dude. Woke up this morning, decided to try my luck again and won another 4k at 30/60, 15/30 and 10/20 hu 3-tabling. I was running well but it was also like something clicked since I left playing mostly limit hu and I was just playing on another level and running circles around the regs.

Since I've logged about 100k nl 6-max and some heads up hands, my limit game has fundamentally changed for the better. I'm thinking way more about ranges/hand-reading/varying lines than I used to playing limit. I think it's because I was playing limit hu for so long exclusively that it became robotic (bet/bet/bet/bet/bet/craise/bet/bet/bet) and I lost sight about some of the NL fundamentals that are so important to limit too.

Maybe it works the other way too; you guys should log 50k hands of limit hu and see how it affects your nl game.

[easycall]

took 46th or something in the mil yesterday.

was going to play the 750k but like 30 min into the stars...i was like, sigh i really dont feel like trying...and so i started just open shoving in random spots and trying to bust...but i just could not lose...i just kept losing one pot, then going all like 4 hands in a row and winning, and then losing one and then winning...it was so funny...finally by the 5/1k level i'm like i guess i should take this seriously...wish i would have ft'd it...but went really really really card dead in my last hour of survival...i had been playing pretty loose earlier so woulda been clutch to pick up some hands late but oh well...still a good finish for trying to lose 30 min into the thing. lololl donkaments.
