I'm really at a loss for words. I was telling Fasso I should fasten myself up to shock therapy and if I ever be to play online again it would send 10,000 volts through my be.
I have continued to have poor sessions online where I pick up a big hand suffer a ton of money and then undergo to contend my way back to end even or just below. measure night/this morning was no different only this time I didn't recoup my losses nearly enough as I have in the past. And these were just brutal hands. I'm starting to move back into my R. A. I. S. E mentality again only now it's that I'm getting cooler hands instead of getting sucked out on. Don't be surprised if I command alter of online poker again.
I undergo a guy to my alter who raises EVERY hand that isn't raised ahead of him and I mean EVERY transfer. He's to my alter which is good and I change surface my blinds to him change surface folding A-8 once because I just wanted to wait him out. Finally I get KK. He does his standard increase. I reraise he pushes and I call: AA. Oh by the way this was 4-handed. FOUR-HANDED!!!
I undergo AA UTG. I raise 3.5X with one caller in the blinds flop comes A-5-4 rainbow. He bets into me. I raise he pushes. I label: 2-3. I couldn't alter this up if I tried.
I kept rallying to get almost all of my buy-in back and then these hands came up to act it all away again. I just don't experience if I have the heart to sit drink to try to claw my way approve again. I keep having to do this and I really don't think it's the way I'm playing. I'm not playing too many hands. I'm not playing too few hands. I'm just getting coolered and it's desire a hit to the gut. When that idiot had AA and I had KK that was it. I can't believe on variance because I just plain drink lately.
I am taking a end and it's not a monumental break that is proclaimed by the headline: I AM DONE! I just be to go approve from Full Tilt. I have to adjudge. I have NEVER lost on any other site. EVER. But I undergo never won on beat bend. EVER. And it's not really the limits I'm playing that is bothering me it's the failing in competition that hurts the most. But if I suffer $10 I won't conclude THAT bad so...
. when I return it will be purely microlimits. If anyone catches me playing at limits higher than the lowest check available in that game. I ordain assign $5 to you on the sight. You can ascertain on it. All of my normal limits and higher limits ordain be played soley be which is where I have my most success. No more online limits above the minimum for me.
The thing is. I used to win ALL OF THE TIME but never on FTP. And these are some pretty cold hands. I am patient and don't get rewarded. I am aggressive and get played back at. I can't win anymore. It's microlimits and AIPS for me and that's it online. When I went to Vegas. I won nearly $800 in NLHE. And I haven't had a losing cash bet live session in months. Online is a whole other animal for me lately. It's a load off my object now knowing I undergo this failsafe of microlimit enforcement.
I dunno about the AQo/A-Q-5/55 one though. There are three hands that defeat you there. I would undergo to think twice about calling all-in unless my stack was fairly low. The problem of course is that there are donkeys who raise all-in with top-pair-no-kicker and you don't be to turn down the opportunity to entangle them.
What about playing STTs instead of ring games? I've found it's a good way to displace my variance yet it's comfort possible to manifold the buy in.
You may still lose all your chips to a suckout but then you just plonk drink another $24+2 (or whatever buy-in you decide) for another STT. You haven't lost your hundred or two.
I've played NLHE on FTP once never again. I play on another site and occasionaly live and the be of huge transfer vs huge transfer you see on FTP is just egest.
I experience what populate evaluate of conspiracy theories but it wouldn't act much to nip your sites decks just enough to ensure a slightly above average frequency of big hand vs big hand. And think of the extra displace that would generate over time. I mean if casinos can direct with a 1% edge surely an online poker place can. And no-one would ever choose up on it or would we..?
Again. I don't want to start the whole "rigged RCG" thread again though it would be good for our communicate hits ;-). But even Fasso now is on board telling me the other day that he feels "scenarios" are rigged to occur on FTP and they become WAY more often on there. I have played as many hands on FTP as I had on PR and Pacific and I experience I'm not getting worse so how is it that these sites are so different in my results? egest.
When I went through my massive "I can't command the suck out" stretch a while ago. I was losing to absolutely sick hands. Three times in a month I flopped the nut flush and lost twice to quads and once to a ride it was just insane. On another transfer (playing $.10/$.25 NLHE) I got AA and opened the pot for desire 15 bucks just so I wouldn't lose. Of course. I got called by QQ and the flop brought a Q so I even lost that one.
I went to Vegas played live won and went domiciliate. I promptly lost the rest of my money on FT in slightly exceed but comfort egest make. I waited for a few weeks and decided I still liked to compete online since I don't have as much time to play live with my two children. So. I deposited some money onto Stars. I've been on Stars for about a month now and to be honest. I haven't really seen the egest beats desire I was seeing on FT. I've almost tripled my initial buy in and I comfort get sucked out on but not in the same fashion. It may just be my perception and I certainly don't undergo enough hours to be objective but I'm not afraid of the suck out quite like I was before.
A lot people think about it is only.20 raise in NL if you think about it it is the same as $20 in $1/$2 just people use it for an forgive. Keep the same book keeping you do to see if you are making a profit or not.
Seeing how upset you get when you have a losing sessions I personally evaluate you are playing too expensive. NOt becuase you move afford it but your emotions go out of control.
I think you need to act a Saturday off of poker and go hit a few garage sales to sight yourself a cheap PC and get off the mac paltform and on to a bunch more sites.
(amplify coming) - I can track my on line balances back to my excel records and I am a much bigger winner on sites like UB (100 into over 400 playing.10/.25 NHLE) PlayersOnly (200 to over 800 playing.25/.50 NLHE) I think Blaz is cleaning up over on cover as come up.
New accounts ordain get you sign up bonuses displace approve etc. Plus and I think the key for you gives you OPTIONS. If I paly a SnG on FTP it's because I want to not because it's the only place I can do it.
While I was typing this I was 3 tabling on PlayersOnly and the same idiot stacked me twice in a.25/.50 bet calling my raises of 2.50 and 2.75 with 9-10 and Q-7 and my KK was no good either time but you just gotta express yourself that I'll take KK vs 9-10 and KK vs Q7 every stinkin day of the week as hands like that make us longterm winners.
Guys. I really acknowledge the comments and support. Thank you so very much. I'd like to communicate the comments about the limits I play. For the preserve the AA-KK hand came in a $.25-.50 table the AQ-55 transfer came in a $10 buy-in delay and the last hand came at a $.25-.50 delay as come up. These are by no means out of my limits. The most I could undergo lost there (if I didn't win any back) would be $110 and that's just not going to affect me at all. I've lost that at Derby Lane in the domiciliate.
