Default I think I have leaks (with graph ldo)...

It seems like variance hits me more then some other people:



Am I too aggressive preflop? I mean, its just a part of my HAG style but it doesnt seem to work too good...

Party Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 3 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

BTN: $102.41
Hero (SB): $52.85
BB: $29.20

Pre-Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
<font color="red">BTN raises to $2</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $8</font>, BB folds, <font color="red">BTN raises to $24</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $52.60 and is All-In</font>, BTN calls $28.85

Flop: ($106.20) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Turn: ($106.20) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

River: ($106.20) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Results: $106.20 Pot ($1 Rake)
BTN showed K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (four of a kind, Aces) and WON $105.20 (+$52.35 NET)
Hero mucked 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (a full house, Aces full of Jacks) and LOST (-$52.85 NET)

I guess people just not used to a real poker player from the high-stakes (2/4NL) at their 50NL games and dont understand all the complicated implications of the HAG play:

Party Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

BB: $67.55
UTG: $69.75
Hero (CO): $50
BTN: $119.48
SB: $46.90

Pre-Flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (CO)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero bets $50 and is All-In</font>, BTN calls $50, 2 folds

Flop: ($100.75) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Turn: ($100.75) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

River: ($100.75) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Results: $100.75 Pot ($2 Rake)
Hero showed 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (a pair of Eights) and LOST (-$50 NET)
BTN showed K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (two pairs, Queens and Eights) and WON $98.75 (+$48.75 NET)

And needless to say, its just them running unsustainably hot, and the variance will kill them eventually:

Party Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

Hero (CO): $50.50
BTN: $49.25
SB: $129.72
BB: $69.60
UTG: $50.42

Pre-Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (CO)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero bets $50.50 and is All-In</font>, BTN calls $49.25 and is All-In, 2 folds

Flop: ($99.25) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Turn: ($99.25) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

River: ($99.25) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Results: $99.25 Pot ($2 Rake)
Hero showed 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (a pair of Tens) and LOST (-$49.25 NET)
BTN showed 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (a flush, Ace high) and WON $97.25 (+$48 NET)

All this said, time to go and grind it out. I mean, I just have to play the way I do, bad runs happen and if ur a winning player, you need to have enough fate in your style to survive the downswing without changing anything.

Nah, I already have a stake at 2/4 and 3/6. Im running bad here too tho.



Just need to give it more time. And maybe I need to play higher, where people understand at least something about poker and dont do stupid moves vs me (and dont suck out as a result).

So lets discuass a 10/20 stake, maybe 5/10 if its a really good deal.

Why'd you go all in before seeing the flop with 5 2 offsuit?
