At some point you will run worse than you ever thought possible

I hope that I have just experienced that phase and it will never happen again. Maybe never playing again could prevent it. I dropped $1K over 12K hands at 50 and 100nl combined in 3 days. It hurt my feelings. It might have been the tilting, it might have been the 12 tabling, all I know is my bankroll has diminished.

Here is my 198 hand battle with a slightly laggy pro at 50nl. Here is a screen shot 65 hands after he sat down.

Man he is good, winning at 1120bb/100. This is how to do it:



Ahwell, get him next time.



Stupid A high board. Should have raised PF to $10 he woulda called.



This idiot trys to bluff him despite the fact he as called down with 8 high a couple hands ago. He calls his bluff.



Very next hand he gets there again.



I'm calling the flop because overs are sooo good here. I hit hard enough to call a nice river bet when I'm crushed.

Managed to even the stacks and I was looking to take his last 400bb. That would have been sweet. Alas



Again I should have made it massive PF. Thank fuck he checked the river or else I was lossing 350bb right there.

Anyway I sucked balls and got rivered all the time and called ever raise just because I felt entitled to at least one pot a session. Time to work on my 94/29 game.

Post Earthquake Hands

Been putting in some serious volume (serious compared with none) of late at 50 and 100nl since Feb 22 because I've got a broken leg and can't do fuck all else. Been smack on break even since the earthquake over 10k hands which is a little disappointing. I haven't been playing particularly well, calling too much OOP and making stupid moves. I always seem to treat any stake thats not the highest I play as play money which is really detrimental to my winrate. There are definitely still a huge amount of tards at 100nl so I think I can make it at a good clip there if I can keep to an A-ish game most of the time.

Some hands:

First off a bit of a cooler. Dude had a 3bet of 10% out of the SB so I think the call IP is good. Cound't think of many hands he could call two barrels with so I checked behind on the turn. Hand played itself.


Next is one I played badly. I flatted behind pre to keep the fish in. When he donks I'm thinking weak top pair or 2nd pair type hand. I think the turn and river cards improve his range too much so its a river fold. Raising the flop seems the obvious move in hindsight.



Prior to the next hand I had been folding tons of small pots to the fish to my left. I had seen him doing stupid stuff trying to take down 3bet pots so I flatted his 3bet and let him spazz out. It all went to plan until:



An then there are a fuck load of missplayed hands from 50nl which aren't getting posted.

Hopefully I can keep my inner donk under control and make some good plays. Want to put in a bit more volume over the next few days because I'm a rake back pro and thats how I make my money.
