lol...from everything you post you have no idea how to play poker.

[/ QUOTE ]


I only play PLO

$50 to $4600 in 36 hours and I can't play? Yeah looking forward to seeing your results.

$4600 to $0 in two hours shows I have a tilt / game selection problem. But I can play.

you won't see my results cause i don't feel the need to start a thread every time i play a hand of poker. you also won't ever hear about me not having enough money for food or transportation because i just dumped the remainder of my bank account on some site and lost it all playing playing like [censored].

Good... shame we have to hear from you at all, though. Pls leave my threads alone.

if they lose the stake, you have the option to stake them again at similar stakes and they are required to win back the original loss.

So you play 5/10 but your last four deposits have been $60, $200, $40 and $50? You sure you didn't mean .05/.10? That would seem reasonable. $40 and $50 deposits are pretty low for a 5/10 player.....

Let me talk you through it! Sunday before last I deposited $50 and sat at $0.50/$1, got up to $150. Moved to $1/$2 and got up to $800, changing tables when I doubled up unless it was really juicy. I was using PokerTracker and Grapher and soon had an idea who to play and who to avoid. I won a big hand on $2/$4 and by the time I went to bed had $1200. I tried to cash it out, having sent all kinds of I.D. to the site, and sent them many emails Monday daytime asking them to process the withdrawal, but they couldn't be bothered. So got home Monday night and played $1/$2 and $2/$4 six-max again. I won some great hands against awful players. One time I sat at a $1/$2 table with $200 and bust out a player with an $800 stack. I got up to $2800 by about 11.30pm. Then I tried two-tabling $2/$4 and went on tilt, losing $800.

I took a break and sat with $1000 at a $5/$10 table. The first hand I was dealt I had 9TKQ with two diamonds. One player raised preflop; I called and hit the nuts with a 8JQ rainbow flop. I potted it for about $160; another player repotted; preflop raiser folded; I reraised, he called, and it was a $2k pot. He had three-pair no straight draw. I actually caught a backdoor flush and took it down. I then won a nice pot on $1/$2 and at this point had $3200 in my account.

I "withdrew" $3000 and sat with the remaining $200 at a $1/$2 table. I doubled up with 66xx with an underful versus someone's aggressively-played trips. Then I sat at a $5/$10 table with $400, figuring I'd already withdrawn a large amount and didn't mind so much if I lost this; if I could win more, great. I wasn't hitting and my stack depleted calling preflop raises. Then I called all-in for $180 with 35JJ on a 248r flop, after one player had potted and another had called. Turn J, river A, so now I had $750.

After winning a small pot with queens full versus jacks full I doubled up again with AKT8 on an AT8 flop verus a guy with J9xx and a hearts draw which blanked. So now I had $1660. I withdrew $1600 of it and went to bed.

But when I woke up, before I'd had a cup of tea, cigarette, breakfast, or showered or dressed, I stupidly sat at a short-handed $5/$10 table and was tilting from the beginning. I was stuck about $1000 by the time I should have left for work, and foolishly decided to keep playing. Tilted more and more, one hand I threw money away, another paid off a backdoor flush with my turned top set when I should have found a fold, another missed with nut flush draw and wrap versus top set, and so on. Before long I was busto.

I don't have a regular game. I move up or down as the spin-up goes on; although I had no urge to play above $5/$10. This is how I can win and lose so much so quickly. I really need to force myself to put in X thousand hands at a particular limit, most likely $0.50/$1 but I want it to be $1/$2, and see how I get on over time. I can beat the games but I can't beat tilt or playing for most of my money.
