Yeah, man you play just like Doyle - I've noticed that. Pitty he's probably gonna die by the time you reach limits he plays in. The world will never have the opportunity to see you two play heads up.

Im a true gambler . This is bottom of my range for all in hands. I felt like gambling , well actually I was trying to steal but he actually had a hand I call and win .
I have big heart and now bigger bankroll

as you can see by the graph

I was on a big downswing having lost with AK to 45 and QQ to set , and flush to quads on river after villian shoved all in with his set on turn vs my flush . Also lost with KK to 33 villian shoved all in on my reraise pre flop and gets set.
I mean this was pretty sick and put me on ti lt for a day
https://www.pokertableratings.com/replayer/index.php?site=party&id=9038315275&hash=5853735337
the villian is a B grade player , so I know hes pretty solid and isnt a maniac or a calling station.
Looking at the starting hand chart we know I will call a raise with JJ TT 99- 22 .. he probably knows Im a tight player which I am 87% of the time.
On board is 3 5 9 and 10
33 55 99 1010 are all hands within my calling range. With the raise on turn its hard not to put me on one of those hands because only a maniac genius would raise turn with just 77 right ?
oh and if you are wondering why im playing on $50 buy in tables , im using a new type of bankroll management system .
How it works is .
I buy in $5 when I double it up ( or go bust
I take the money and move to higher limit .. rinse and repeat till I have 30% of my bankroll in winnings
Then I cash out for the day.
Some days are good , some days are bad ![]()
basically Im playing a cash game tourny where the chips is real money lol.
NL4 buy in $5 -- win $10 then move to
NL10 buy in $10 - win $25 then move to
NL25 buy in $25 -- win $50 then move to
NL50 buy in $50 --- >>> the sky is the limit .
You can skip levels depending on size of bankroll like someone with $5000 bankroll might start on $50 buy in right away.

I actually quite like this idea, but maybe just as a challenge! Don't think it's ideal BRM, it would totally suck to reach NL50 only to loose to a suck out! All the work to get there and no reward.
I have some money on an untracked site that I play on when drunk/tired etc. Might give it a shot on there just to see how it goes.

i think this strategy is missing something. What happens if you lose?
I just did this in the last 10 mins .. I went to NL$25 after this and moved all in before flop with 9d 10d vs 2 players who called with KK ( lol both had KK ) I lost $5 in that hand . So I lost $2 not $5 since thats my original investment. Considering I was big blind and had 25 cents invested already thats 1/8 my orginal investment , easy all in for me .
Amazingly I almost won when 10 hit board , I hit 5 outer on flop pot was $15 in size and my investment was $2 . Odds of me winning was about 4 to 1 since another K cant come obviously .
So I was getting 2 to 1 on my money , Im a maniac genius. I lost tho
but hey I almost turned $2 into $15 in about 15 mins . I would have to win 7-8 hands at NL2 .. instead I almost did it in 3 hands.
edit: Ive been thinking , if I put aside $2 once I get to NL50 after 4 wins then Im on a free roll and can gamble even more .

Its kinda like in a tourny , if you dont make the money you dont get paid right ![]()
Except in this tourny , the chips is money and the blinds only go up when you buy in to the higher limit and everyone has similar chip stack sizes .
Also you can make the money whenever you decide to cash out.
Spot the donkeys .... Lost a few hands yesterday to idiots sucking out on river thought I would post my reply to them .
Tilt is bad.
How to get rid of tilt .
1. Go to NL2 , take about $20 for donation
2. Move all in every single hand till you give someone bad beat
3. Feel better about ruining someone elses day
4. Go back to higher limit and hunt fish
Ooops he just lost with KK to 43 ... hehehe TILT IS OVER YAY!

I think you're slightly confused about your position up(?) the food chain.






Thank you so much for the wonderful insights into how the minds of the maniacs and the fish work, I wish I was still on party poker, I would enjoy traveling up and down the stakes and sitting to your left until you went bust.
Tilt is not being angry or upset about your game. Tilt is ANY EMOTIONAL STATE that causes you to play poorly. Going all in with 34 means you're going to win showdown against anything in my maniac calling range one time in 20. You dealt a bad beat, how nice. How many buyins did you waste? Can't you think of cheaper ways to get off tilt?
I just did this in the last 10 mins .. I went to NL$25 after this and moved all in before flop with 9d 10d vs 2 players who called with KK ( lol both had KK ) I lost $5 in that hand . So I lost $2 not $5 since thats my original investment. Considering I was big blind and had 25 cents invested already thats 1/8 my orginal investment , easy all in for me .
Wow, where do I begin?! If you win 3 dollars, those are real dollars, they don't become fake just because you won them in poker. Your original investment was 2 dollars. that investment paid off. Why do you treat that investment paying off as if it didn't happen?
You were big blind. that big blind was an eighth of the money you want to play with. The blinds are the weakest possible positions to play. You went all in preflop. Of course only the best hands are going to call you! suited connectors, even high ones, are okay to go to the flop with, and see if you hit, but most of the time, you will want to fold on the flop.
Have you ever gone skiing? I sure hope you do, because if you can go down the easiest slope once, you should go for each run in order of difficulty until you go down the hardest triple diamond path with ease! Oh, and don't bother listening to any of the instructors or safety crew, you know better than them, your genius allows you to intuit more about how to ski in minutes than they have learned in years of proven expertise!

quote]You dont get it do you , I don't care about results or money and I didnt expect to win when I moved all in with 9d 10d , it was -EV but the money I could win from that hand would allow me to win more by playing tighter at the higher limit rather than just sit around all day playing NL2 for peanuts.
Anyway there was $15 to be won , I wanted to win it so I took a chance.
winning money on NL2 is stupidly easy I mean look at this hand I just win, I can play NL4 now for $2 investment with $4 worth of chips easily gained from NL2 , the players on NL4 are almost as bad as NL2..almost.
When he bets 10 cents I just move all in , either he hit a flush in which Im on a draw , or he has a heart and is on a draw .. or best case he has AK no hearts .. bam calls with best case senario ! thanks for coming sir.
Moving all in was good move because he probably thinks im on a draw and if I was on a draw I wouldve moved all in and won so gg

If you don't care about the results or the money, why are you playing?
If you don't expect to win, why not wait for a better hand?
If NL2 is so easy to win, why not just stick with that until you have enough to play on a higher limit for more than just a few hands at a time? If you want to try occasionally at higher limits, that's all well and good, but why not wait until you can play with a stack that is pure poker earnings.
