Session 4: Down… Up… and down…

Teh Jinx — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 20:14:41 +0000

I’m trying to be very aware of any leaks because of session length etc – but after reviewing some big hands I guess I just ran very well the first 2/3 of this session and very bad the last 1/3. Still a pretty okay result.

Currently up 11BI in 2500 hands. That’s not great, but for a novice like me, that’s pretty good.

Sessie 3: Mid-Day Two-Tabling

Teh Jinx — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 14:49:17 +0000

Have been two-tabling while working, resulting in a much lower VPIP & AF. It doesn’t look like it’s making me much more or much less profitable, but it is a matter of less variance, or so it seems. Obviously still a small sample…

Big upswing is a result of a small rush in which I was able to both catch some hands and valuetown 3 streets/overshove for value. One hand is this one right here…

All hands should run like this….

Such a great board to shove that river on….

Session 2: Better

Teh Jinx — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 22:49:31 +0000

I’m starting to get the hang of these 25nl games a little. Playing less OOP and trying not to play dominated hands OOP at all if possible is making life easier. Trying not to 3barrel for no reason is going out of the arsenal too.

Managed to book a solid session in which I pretty much never got totally killed even though I ran into a two-outer and a one-outer in literally ten seconds.

Trying another small session tomorrow, now: some sleep.

End of Session 1

Teh Jinx — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 19:48:34 +0000

I am severely outclassed. I wanted to play my “normal” game and not be too nitty, but after this first session it’s obvious I’m a big dog in these games, and I will need to work on my game a lot to beat them. I ended up in the green but only after a big big downswing of over 10BI.

In about 500 hands (which was my goal for the day), that’s just sad.

Played badly, ran pretty bad at start but recovered a lot – and I can feel very not-confident about my game.

Playing a little cash…

Teh Jinx — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 17:34:23 +0000

I’ve decided to go and play some microstakes cash games on PokerStars and will be reporting my results. Fingers crossed I can turn this into a “green operation”. I have close to zero online cash experience, but have had pretty solid live results. I’m assuming the .10/.25 cent games on PokerStars are tougher to beat than my regular live games, though.

Keep you posted after my first two-tabling session!

Pretty big hand… :s

Teh Jinx — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 22:28:06 +0000

Posting all hands seemed impossible, too much action. Sick table now, and pretty sucky hand with AKcc on the button.
