OT: How often do regs spew?

[Xanta]

I make around .75 bad bluffs per 1500 hand session or so. I feel like a jerk every time that I do.

I spew constantly, not necessarily every session, but almost certainly every day.

I just try to recognize it and play better once I do see it. I always try to utilize my spewy image too.

Yeah I make lots of thin calls and shoves and naturally this will make you feel like a spewy idiot over some periods of times but feeling like a genius the rest makes up for it. Make sure to brush it off by saying "metagame!" out loud when you lose obv.

I spew about once per session, I try to do it with equity tho (like with a gutshot at least) - lol

Most of the time "my spew" is me pushing a marginal edge to reinforce my crazy image. I get paid a lot because of this crazy image

Ok when I made my first reply I didn't consider this spew but if it is then I spew pretty often. I was thinking about real tilt spew like instacalling when you know youre drawing dead cause you hate your life.

Nah it wasn't that in my case. More like "zomg I has top pair that aggrotard be making a move" when there was really no justification for that read, and no reason to stack off in any case.

yeah, i'm talking about b/3b bluffs and cold 4bet bluffs (a personal favorite)

[ikestoys]

for example, this is probably spew, although i think theres a possibility i can justify it:
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1/$2
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $389
Hero: $404
CO: $654.61
Button: $709.85
SB: $167.65
BB: $187.90

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $7</font>, CO folds, Button calls, 2 folds.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($17, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $13</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises to $40</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in $397</font>, Button folds.
Uncalled bets: $357 returned to Hero.

Results:
Final pot: $97

The money you lost while playing poorly is gone, but you will still make money if you play well most of the time. If you spew off money often, then you cannot be a winning player, but if you win 4 buy ins then spew off 3, you will still have the 1 buy in. Basically, if you run tilt at -20bb/hour and play normally at 5bb/hour then as long as you tilt less than 20% of the time you will make money.
