Hmm, NL100 not working aswell as i hoped so i thought i switch back to tourneys again. That didnt work either...

Lost more than 2/3 of my roll and this is probably the worst downswing ever.

So long since i had less than 1k in my account, feels like shit...

Well, still gonna play 180 turbo sngs. I have -9% ROI so far this month, normal is like 30%. Only gonna play peak hours and get a lot more sleep until im back at 3-4k. Then maybe move from pokerstars to a site where i can get some nice rakeback.

Goal this year is to have turned my red NL100 numbers into green.

Hey guys!

Been like 6 months since my last blogpost, im a bit ashamed of that and i'll be putting in more time for bloging now that im playing cash games again and is gonna have a lot of hands for you to criticize.

I just moved up to nl50 by the time of my last blodpost. i have come a little longer now.

I been playing tourneys full time the last couple months, before that i failed at moving up to NL100 three times i think. I made a lot more money playing tourneys than cash games but im getting a little bored with them now so im gonna work on my cash game again.

I started couple a days ago w/ 3k in my bankroll, bought PT3 and my confidence super high!

apart from ~250 going to tourney buyins im down 7 buyins at NL100. Feels stupid and it was a long time ago i tilted like today, dumping the last buyin to some guy.



God it sucks!

Major hands:

His line really screams of a set and i was thinking about flatting on the flop, but i was like "im OOP, fuck it i have outs!"

My mistake is PF i guess where i shouldn't 3bet an unknown UTG raiser. Comments?

Is it standard to stack off here vs a solid opponent? i donno if im being a nit for overthinking it but when my biggest winning hand is dogging AA w/ KK allin pre im kinda thrown off my game.

These are the nonstandard hands and i could use some comments!

Noting to good to report outside poker either...
I accidentally shot my pulp fiction poster w/ my soft air gun. Bullet went straight trough Jules tie. that kinda sucks, the poster is from LA and i havent found any in sweden...

Hey, long time now sense my last update.

I moved up to NL50, which is "low" stakes on Pokerstars. I'm not a "micro" stakes player anymore!! woohoo!
I'm also doing okey. Its really not so much different then NL25. The transfer between NL10 to NL25 was much much harder as you might remember

Biggest difference between NL25 and 50 is that the yber donkeys are back. ppl from NL10 taking shots it feels like. Many ppl also dont respect raises from the blinds, at all, but other ppl respect them as much as a early/mid pos raise. easy to adjust to.

Example (no respect):
http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/406745 i did this like 3 times, to bad he played semi shortstacked.

I have played about 5k hands on NL50 now, up about 5 BIs. some more if you count in HU play. Now im playing for real money it feels like, which is great. If i win 3 BIs i have made more money then 8 hours of work at my job
cant wait until NL100, thats like a dream for my playing is such "high" stakes games lol

One question about NL50 or any limit i guess: 4betting. it happens like never in NL25-50. when a regular player 4bets its AA/KK 100% of the time. few ppl 4bets AK/QQ. I used to 4 bet, on NL10 like QQ+ and AK. Now i find it more profitable to just flat a 3bet and own TT+ on a low board or like AQ/AJ w/ AK. ofc i have to fold a lot of KK/QQ on A-high flop but i think its still a good play. When i flat i have pos, if im OOP i still 4bet...they have folded every single time. Even ppl i have a lot of 3bet history with.
What do you think? When does this change? any thoughts on 4betting, please.

And obv im gonna 4bet all LP member constantly now


New biggest hand ever:

This is a 6max table that have broke up. Usually i leave but i got left with the biggest nit ever and i thought i could take some blinds off him before he left. This is like our 9th hand HU, i have won all previous hands. I'm raising any two. guess the 8 other hands put him on mega tilt =)
