OWND
I posted my best-polished rant on 2p2, in the BBV section. Within 4 posts, they had googled it, found my blog, and were heckling my ass for
a) 'stealing' the rant
b) being a pussy
c) etc
I <3 2p2's beats, brags, and variance forum. Not for the poker part, but the pure frickin hilarity of people heckling each other to hell and back. Screw all that warm fuzzy shit!!
Since I last posted: 2804 hands : 8.10 bb/100 : just over 2 BIs
My graph is swongy as fuck. I tried 6-tabling as an exercise, and got slammed over a 400 hand stretch with ups and downs. Best to stick with 4, I suppose.
UGLY STUFF
This villain is a bit looser (37/16/1.33), but opening this strong UTG narrows everybody's range. This hand is proof that I, OneGreenChip, have no balls. While my flop line is a little suspect, I get lucky and nobody else comes along. Effective stacks are 200bb, I cover, and so my flop and turn lines are great. MY RIVER PLAY IS ATROCIOUS. I saw the third diamond, got a check-call, and got scared.
Opinions on missed value?
In my last post, I rambled about not stacking off in an unraised pot. Yet I almost do it here. Villain has one of the few hands I beat. For 100BB stacks, when my c/r is minraised, and I have middle pair and a gutshot, I gots to fold, sonnnnn.
This nit had 3bet me 4 times in the last 10 hands. I was fed up. Thank u jesus.
Maybe I could have stacked this guy. I put him on a steal, as he'd lost some big pots lately with suckouts and was starting to loosen up from his standard 40/1/0.3 game.
I messed up here and don't know how. the card I want comes in on the turn, and then I get scared of a bigger flush and flatcall the river. I KNOW i could have had more value here, but reasoning doesn't support it. I'M WEAK.
THE GREAT
Lately I haven't been getting a lot of value from the river, as 95% of my river bets have been value bets. This session I made sure to put in some bets on the for value, and some for bluffs. It ended up confusing a number of the regs I played with. This TAG (18/12/3.0) and I have over 10k hands of history, so when I float his c/r and bet the river, he's got to put me on a hand. Player dependent, but... I like it.
I should just lead out, but it takes a real donk to stack off w/ TT here.
Another reg. Not sure that I like my play OOP, but it's easy to put this particular player on a hand, and I get paid off.
THE AWFUL
230 BB pot!! I make the PF call from the SB -- speculative, but not too bad. My hand is easy to ditch. The flop is just what I'm looking for, but really draw-heavy. The plan is to check raise the PF raiser, who's loose and aggressive. I'm happy getting all in with him.
But the loose-passive on my right raises before I can get there. Raise (and commit to the pot?) or fold? I think a shove is OK if I had flopped the straight. Two pair just cannot be good against these opponents, but I marry my crappy two pair. I LOVE YOU!!! WAIT! YOU SUCK! BITCH WHY ARE YOU FAT AND HORRIBLE I CAN'T BELIEVE I PICKED YOU ARRGHHHHHH
All Day
was sure I could fold out any non-K hand with a shove.
This river shove didn't work out, but I don't agree with his call at all. Made a note on the guy and stacked him later.
I guess that's enough for now. This blog is turning into a notepad of hands. I'll have to do more expounding on the game itself, and what I'm noticing from 25nl at AP. Maybe it's time to move again? Bonus-whore? With the winrate I'm sustaining now (34K hands @ 13.31 bb/100), I can't see moving. It's too bad that I finally got 4-tabling down well and now don't have any bonuses to take advantage of.
Maybe I should redeposit and start a new name. Screw this ironeagle guy, right? :D
