Outcome: Hero wins $8.42.

in a previous-previous life, i would have called the bet by BB. TERRIBLE. in a previous life, i would have raised and then called the 3bet. not as terrible as a flat call of BB. this month, i push to his 3bet. BINGO. prior to this month, i wouldnt have made much money on this hand and would proceed to lose a BI to KK vs AA AI PF. that my friends, is a big part of how i was breakeven for so long. lost big pots and didnt extract when i had the goods. i have tons of hands like this throughout this month and my graph shows it. the reason we could not find this leak is because i only posted big hands that i lost, not big hands that i made and didnt extract. supwithbates did some railing on my play and noticed this issue with my game.

life is better now, although i sighed at the turn and cursed stars at the river. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

easy raise because flop hits a lot of hands and is drawy (so people will pay $$)

this might be a dumb question but did you even read my post? i wasnt asking if i made the right play just in case you didnt. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

[derosnec]

no i read your post. i meant that by thinking through the hand, the flop should be an easy raise not a slowplay. and it's not so much for protection, it's because flop is such that our opponents will pay $$.

Second sess of the day:

daaaaaaaamn shox nice freaking work. 50nl?

My day was pretty interesting. At least I was able to win a little bit in the end. I'm convinced that Gelford telling me to stop whining and start pwning is what made things turn around at hand 664 or so. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

[shoxbb6]

nah, all 25nl

[Ikaika]

holy hell...thats pretty insane dude. 45bb/100, np lol.

Anyone knows a site that lets you cash out in the form of a check in euro's? Cause if I do this through party they give you a check in dollars, but the bank take away 250 euro's from that amount, a bit to steep for my taste [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

If someone else knows a good way to cashout (people in general don't give much information on this subject), please pm me.

wow talk about a lesson in patience

was 12 tabling, missing lots of flops, getting sucked out on after getting all in on turn, etc.

so, losing session so far (1,900 hands). but i'm playing smart (i think)

then, i stack 5 people within a ten minute span, to end up with a 5 ptbb/100 winrate
