Germanys next grindette: Just for fun! (Sit and) go, girl!

Thank you very much, Rhodriguez! I analyzed my hands and the frustrating thing is, that I really do much more pushes/calls/folds right! Bad luck frustrates me, I´m happy to find wrong hands, because then I can say: next time I do it better! I can control it. But getting better and loosing and loosing because running under EV is extremely frustrating!!

For example:

99 < J4o
AA < J8s
AKs < AQo
QQ < J5s

So but I see I´m not suuuuuuch a huge fish, okay.

But anyways, a little "break from grinding" and a little freerolling will do my soul good. A couple of days just some SCOOP qualifiers or freerolls or some funny stuff..... will increase my motivation again.

with me is the other way around, when i know i played correctly and my AA is crushed by 72 than it is ok, i played correctly and 'geniuses' with 72 will always go all in, and i'm happy about it.
don't get me wrong, it is annoying when bed beats accumulate and happens hand after hand, but in that times i just move to lower stakes and lose less money (yes i'm money oriented and there is nothing wrong about it :P),
and when i see that streak is over i'm coming back to my normal stakes.

i think we playing same games (sng, don, maybe some mtt) and we got similar bankrolls this is what works for me,

i did get very frustrated before but i train my self to let it go, i can't do anything to avoid those bed beats,
i tried to play more sophisticated game , but on those stakes you just have to play abc and move up, dont be afraid to fold good hands (especially when there are some straight/flush draws )
you just have to learn how to dont give a s!@# about them

something to cheer you up

Zyvy, thank you very much for your very true and kind words (and the funny video)!

This is exactly what I did: I grinded anyway but moved down in limits. I still have to train myself better to deal with such phases. It´s true that I should be happy when someone calls my All-in with K7s or J8s or so... most of the times my hand will win. Yesterday when I looked at the hands I played I noticed that I make much less mistakes than about 1 or 2 months ago and that´s also a progress. Right, no fancy play at the low limits, tight ABC poker is more than enough against :f_ugly::f_ugly::f_ugly:.

Did a big session today and because there are tons of :f_ugly::f_ugly::f_ugly: at the tables I could make tiny tiny little plus.

And besides: it was rakeback time at iPoker. I could choose between a tournament ticket or 1 Euro cash for my Summit-Points and I decided to take money. ♠_thumbsup:

But ....urm....something else: I don´t seem to get strategy points for playing at PartyPoker anymore? ♠_o:

PartyPoker isn't affiliated anymore with pokerstrategy indeed. I don't get points anymore either.

I'm quite bewieldered to hear about "Gus Hansen's level of swings" from you all, like Gus had a really bad luck streak or something... ♠_confused:
He was just a fish in the Nosebleed pool and kept playing at it, that's all (and mostly without a HUD, seriously, Gus...).
Of course the fact that I believe that hasn't anything to do with my liking of Alexandre Luneau playing style

Cash in cash out

OH NO! ♠_cry:

One more reason to return to iPoker. Oh boy, but I liked Party but in this case *sigh* ....let´s restart our little game cash-in-cash-out ♠_ugly:♠_ugly:. .... Oh man: Goodbye PartyPoker. ♠_cry:

To be exact: those who signed up with Party during the old partnership (i.e. before 2013) have stopped getting SPs. However, those who have signed up with Party during the new partnership - since April 2015 - are supposed to be getting SPs (which can however be affected by short-term technical issues), however, Party has pulled out of the Gemstone promo.

You absolutely can't quit Party right now when the Gladiator promo is going to rerun (on April 17 - May 6) I'm definitely going to be in attendance in $3 SNG Hero to get that juicy $3500 freeroll ticket ($70-80 equity usually, albeit with a ton of variance).

Also, make sure to check your bonus offers - those who haven't withdrawn recently might have the April reload offer available, at least I do.

I don´t ♠_cry: and I haven´t got strategy points for April so far for PartyPoker ♠_cry:

For everyone whose Party account was created earlier than April 1, 2015, their ability to earn SPs for Party play was disabled on January 1, 2017.

If your Party account is newer, send a support ticket about your Party SP issue.

...about to connect PT4 to the room I´ve chosen....

I hope no computer element is damaged during your setup process

On a side note, you've probably forgotten to tell the readers about something that you're going to do in 11 days

Oooooooooooooooooh 1.000000000000 apologies:

Yes, I´m gonna be on Collins coaching again, together with Tony. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

♠_thumbsup:

Happy Easter to all!

Hello iPoker: I grind anyway!

Well actually I wanted to take a little grinding break but I didn´t. ♠_ugly: Couldn´t take my hands off the tables when they are full of donkeys! Aw, I haven´t told you yet which room I chose.

And the winner is:

Bet365

I´m happy to be now to 100% at iPoker! Yaaay! One part of my BR is still at Everest (where I got a nice 1K Series freeroll ticket already) and the rest is now at Bet365. The traffic at the 6-max and 9-max turbos and hypers is awsome, as well as at the 6-max-hyper DONs. Played tons and tons of SnGs and DONs today and had a little winning session, could clear the first part of my bonus and got even more tournament tickets! That´s what I call rakeback ♠_thumbsup:

Ooooooops today is Monday, almost forgot the report again, here we go (exclusive today):

Week 22

Tourneys: 413
Result: -5,36 €
Bankroll: 215,64 €
Goal: 1.000 €

Just abandon those DONs already. They are reg infested and over-raked. Also they dont really run at higher stakes, so you will probably switch them anyway soon enough.

Just fire away at MTT SNGs at stars or lower field MTTs in other rooms. Maybe HUSNGs to practice the HU part of MTTs.
Keep your head up and good luck!

Why start again after stopping for 8 years? are you mad or just plain stupid?

Having a hobby doesn't make one mad or stupid.

Speaking of, don't you think that satellites are softer than DONs?
