thank fk for RB

Ive started something new (basically cos i cant win at 6 max anymore) 7-9 tabling 100nl fr. Sounds realy dull and at first i thought it would be, especially as its realy tight and rake is $20-$30ph. Saying that my LAG style from 6 max converts to about 22 16 at fr which (in my head anyway) is beating the game at a decent rate. Unfortunately the stats dont back that up im down about $600 multitabling 100nl in 5500 hands. Im gona stick with it for the time being cos im enjoying the change and i think i can crush it.
As the title suggests rake back is the only thing keeping my graph looking respectable atm. My win rate has dropped to a depressing 1.6BB/100 and my br stands at $5700.

I did play this hand yesterday that i was happy with and shows that i can fold big pairs ocassionally.

playing loseing poker

There no two ways about it its been a long time since i have been able to play plus EV poker. My br is at about $5700 and i cant afford to let it keep going down at the rate it is. I thought i might post some of my big loseing pots where i (in most cases) cant find the fold button where maybe i used to be able to.

have found my new fav vid of all time

Anyone not familier with Tuff Fish wont get this vid and should type it into youtube before watching this one. Anyone who does this and still doesnt find it funny (everyone but me and tony so far) must be a fish imo. Anyway it had me in stitches.

No news is not good news

I havent played much online poker since starting my 2nd year physics, when i have played i havent been winning. Ive been break even for poker for about 2 months now which makes surviving off poker seem an impossible dream especially as my costs have rocketed. Who would have thought that i cost my parents £20min a week just in food.

On a more positive side i min cashed in the soc tourny yesterday after playing it like a genius;
- calling a rock down with 56o on a AKT52 board for about 70% of my stack he showd A7 hearts for the nut flush
- shoving 23o on two seperate occasions doubling up through Lawrence the 1st time when he had 2 overs, tripling up the 2nd time when i was fortunate enough to be shown AK and AJ.

Went to aspers on friday night aswell with paul and callum obv i busted first and joined the waiting list for the £1 2 pl holdem table, something ive been meaning to do for a while (i think it was a goal in one of my earlier posts) i was one bulleting with £100 like a pro ;-) fortunately my AK was too good for QQ early on and i finised up with £160. I will def play it again even though the standard wasnt that bad might even take a 2nd barrel next time.
