Default BEAT: Lost $1k prop bet with fslexcduck

I was nitting up in one way or another on the interwebs recently, and I was called out for being a nit by Vanessa. I claimed I was not a nit - she defied me to play LAG over a certain number of hands and show a profit. I accepted.

The terms:

Play 30+/24+ VPIP/PFR
Play 2/4 6 max
Play at tables with 5 or 6 people
Play at 4+ tables whenever possible

I had to show a profit over 4k hands.

Here's my stats:



Here is my graph - but I can't filter it for the hands I played with 5-6 people. I was up around $2.5k at one point in the actual bet, and I was never up $500 or so with only a few hundred hands remaining.



I was down $1200 with around 350 hands to go - I miraculously won 3 bi to go up around $100 with 80 or so hands left. Then, a loss - I couldn't just post and fold to victory - I had to keep playing hands, and I lost them. Finally I was down $150 with 32 hands left, and sat out for a while. I decided I was open shoving on PF opens, hoping to get coinflip-ish situations.

Here's the first one of note:

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

CO ($373.60)
Hero ($436)
SB ($633.40)
BB ($200)
UTG ($511.40)
MP ($224.50)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises to $8</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $436 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP calls $216.50 (All-In).

Flop: ($455) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: $455

Results in white below:
MP has Qd Qc (three of a kind, queens).
Hero has As 6c (one pair, sixes).
Outcome: MP wins $666.50.

Then, the second hand which cost me this stupid bet:

Results in white below:
Hero has Jh Jd (one pair, jacks).
CO has 9c Tc (two pair, tens and nines)

Hero has 4d Kh (high card, ace).
Outcome: UTG wins $904. </font>

so close

anyway, cliffs notes:

BEAT: Lost $1k prop bet about aggressiveness, possibly my manhood
BRAG: Tilted a ton of nits at 2/4
VARIANCE: played more hands in this this 3 day stretch than any since january

What is your exact profit/loss at hand 4000, because it might be close and the exact terms of the bet were show profit over 4000 hands, not over 4353 hands.

call Focus on the Family. think about all the blame you can spread around for this. gambling, homosexuals, women, jews... it's enough to give jerry fallwell a boner from his grave.

My graph can't be filtered for the number of players at the table, but the terms of the bet was that it had to be minimum 5 players at the table. I sat at tables with less than 5 or 6 people over the course of the bet, but whatever I did there doesn't count.

So i take your first picture is a screenshot of your PT stats which show 4000 hands filtered 5 handed+ and shows a loss right?

I just cant see the numbers properly for some reason.

coming from a fellow nit, that's .. not a compliment or an insult. don't know what it is, exactly.

matthew: 2/4 or 5/10 are my normal stakes. I'm curious who you are, because I really outplayed some people - and got completely owned as well.
