Default Re: Official JUNE uNL **\'`MICROBREW THREAD`\'** LC/NC this way...

My account is now lower than it has been in almost 4-5 months, I was stupid last month for cashing out 3 times as much I finished last month in my account with, so my account is embarassingly low for being a $50 NL regular.

Can you guys give me your best suggestions for grinding a BR<300 roll up to somewhere around 600-700 so I can start taking shots at $25 and $50 NL again?

I also have 40,000+ fpps from all the hands I've played during this downswing (perhaps the rake accounts for 30% of my losses) but I think it'd be safer if I just saved up for the $650 bonus at 50k fpps which requires you to clear another 4550 more vpps ~15k fpps basically at Supernova.

My best guess is to either try to grind the $6.50 45 man turbos 12 tabling (that's basically $78 or so for all the entry fees and if you win 1 you're ahead overall or if you finish in the top 7 of maybe 3/12 you're either breaking even or way ahead... what are your guys thoughts on breaking out of my horrendous downswing and what can/should I try to do to get back to where I was without trying to play the 5400 fpp sng's for $210 a ticket that I can resell?

I have not gone broke online in 3 years online and I would like to keep the streak alive. I have $500+ on Poker4ever.com if anyone would be willing to help me out and transfer with me to stars (their site is very soft and is run sort of like a Prima site with funny sounds too lol). I also have $300+ on absolute if anyone is willing to help me transfer it for stars $ also.

As a reference I own my own Poker forum (300+ members thus far) and everyone there can vouch I am not a scammer.


TY for reading, a friend in need,

OMG this reminds me of last night, I was playing against Vinny Ferret on stars and I had 3 bet his opening raise which was smooth called by one guy and he decided to shove, with Ts8s into my QQ so I reluctantly called the all in for 100 BB's figuring he had AA or KK cooler type of hand or maybe even AK/JJ, sure enough flop is J97 and I thought my hand might of been good, sure enough he flops the pure nuts, WTF is WRONG WITH ME why can't I RUN GOOD/AVERAGE when I am actually ahead like 1% of the time when I'm all in preflop

play enough hands and try not to lose too much.

2 months ago iv had a 15 BI ds on 25NL. then I won back 10, and then i had a 23k break even stretch. Then i ran hot for 20k more hands and moved up.

Iv had basicly 10k breaking even on 50NL, but im learning. Just have patience and search ur game for leaks.

U cant fix them at once, but look where u make mistakes. I used to nto be able to lay down 2 pair on the river when it was obvious i was beat, I couldnt do this from one day to the other. But laying down hands in certain hard spots will make u alot of money. Running hot is something everyone does.

Just have patience thats my advice :P

Hmmm... Hollywood or UB.. Hollywood or UB.
It would probably take like 150,000 hands or something to clear their $1500+nano promo, wouldnt it?

UB's bonus takes a long time to clear as well. I'd guess 60k at least.

Yeah. And I'm having a hard time depositing on there. Say I use Visa, what do I have to do to avoid cash advance interest charges on there? Pay off all my remaining balance, and then have an extra balance of the amount I'm depositing?

Im in Canada. So if I use credit card, it counts as a cash advance, and interest piles up pretty quick on a $500 cash advance.
I could sign up for epassporte, or load up my moneybookers account, but I was hoping to deposit today since they have the reload bonus going on.

Hbomb, i don't understand how u can be playing nl25.

u cashed out 2 much or something? btw, i play with u alot and u r fairly solid but i've noticed that u play very straightforward (maybe that's just vs. me) and don't seem to gamble very much.
