If I go and sit down at that level with my last $6 until it's all gone, is there a way of posting the entire hand history on here so that you guys can see where I went wrong?

Seriously, how are you supposed to play at this level when people call raises pre with gooseberry fool like 93h? You get about five people in every pot just calling everything. Even if you've got the best hand pre you're unlikely to win by the end.

Post the hand.

I wasn't in the hand, I had just sat down and saw people doing it. It seems to have calmed down a bit now.

Here's an example for you:

At that level I would just play really tight and try just play the nuts or there abouts and play A B C poker at that level too I would rarely c-bet unless you hit and I would bet, your big hands because people at that level can't fold when they hit and they sure as hell like to chase draws.

Did it ages ago.

I have $664 after starting a year ago with a $50 deposit. I've not ever cashed any of it out, but I just don't play as much as I'd like to. For example:

Code: Select all

Username     Games Played     Av. Profit     Av. Stake     Av. ROI     Total Profit     Form     Ability /100     Network
Proper Zing  252              $2             $4            40%         $438             -        71               PokerStars

One of my targets for this year is to play more but with a full time job and all, it isn't always that easy.

Watch less American TV (this excludes House you can watch that).

PostRe: The Poker Thread by **Ecno** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 7:08 pm

Play 6 max instead of full ring.

There's way too much on in the first six months of this year to miss. Lost, House, Chuck, Breaking Bad... & High Stakes Poker. 8-)

I'm going to assume this is in response to JamieCrime.

PostRe: The Poker Thread by **Oblomov Boblomov** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 7:28 pm

Okay, I'm going to move onto a 6 max table and see how it goes.

If you're going to play now I'll spec you. I am not, however, The World's Greatest Cash Player™*.

Minor understatement.

Slight understatement.

Table name is Markab.

Should I have raised then on that river bet when I made the flush? To be honest I think the guy is a total donk, betting with two pair on a board like that, and I was at least expecting him to make the flush, fearing the King or Ace.

I've had AK three times and missed the flop every time. I've bet half the pot each time, been folded to once and been raised up the other two times.

Jesus! Is that on the 100$ ST HUs?

PostRe: The Poker Thread by **Rex McGee** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 8:04 pm

Well it's a mix. Mostly 50s but a few 30s and 100s. Basically open all the lobbies and wait for bad players. If they sit, I sit. I am running like God though seriously so don't make it out like I can make a $10k month etc. It will all go in a downswing soon enough. :roll:

Overall though pretty confident in my ability at these. I've played 718 now since December and it's the most fun I've had playing poker for ages. I literally don't get bored of them. Sure at times I go insane and shout a bit but it's so damn satisfying winning a 60/40! Real fistpumps etc.

Obv I may still be running good in terms of cards let alone EV so I am not exactly going insane but it's nice to have a new peak roll and a fair bit of my roll came from MTT wins.
