Almost 3200$

With rakeback, I'm with 3200$. Bear in mind I withdraw more or less 700€ + 150€ so should have been at nl100 right now as I planned.

But will take a shot or two in the middle of February but I will start to play at nl50 GPB, EUR and USD from now on.

Long time no see.

And, what do you know, I'm on nl50 with a somewhat even red line.

Goals:

- at 3000$ roll, will enter both USD and EUR NL50 tables.
- at 3500$ roll, will enter USD, EUR and GBP tables - and USD 150bb tables
- at 4250$ roll, will enter NL100
- avoid entering 150bb tables with 2k roll...AGAIN!

Aiming for 10bi? Done. Almost 15!

Hello!

Been running Hot, like Isildur hot!! Not really :) I've been playing some solid ABC poker though, had a lot of edges smoothed and now things are running a more controlled.

I'm now at 240$, 250$ roughly of money earned directly from the tables. I've won an extra 20$ from a private race and I think I will manage to get in the vicinity of 130$ - 150$ of rakeback.

All and all, good month - NL50 is on sight.

Thanks to Bruno, my only follower, for reading this.:)

And for your delight (and mine)...



Jessica Biel. Yes, I know her personally as well.

Thank you, Professor!

Been learning (a lot) from some online friends and one of them even took the time to watch me playing. Not only we were in a sweat session, but he even took the time to go through some hands he had chosen from the session.

Think I've learned a lot and I'm feeling a lot better with my game and different ways to approach an inumerous type of hands I had a lot of problems before.

So far so good, I'm aiming for 10bi though I've been said I can easily aim for 15 / 20bi.

One can only hope....:)

What do you know...

...I'm back! Back with a vengeance! Starting 2010, swingy mode on and ended up (just) 30$ up. With RB, I will win up to 240$.

Let's see next month...

And what do you know...I'm up for the month!

Hello.

Check it out, baby!!!



Sweet!

And if it wans't for this misclick, I would have one 20$ more:)

Good month, I learned a lot and I'm very positive I will make something in the vicinity of 500$ next month! Just on the tables:)

I always maintain a positive line all month (except for that sick day) and despite the fact I didn't won much, I was feeling very confident and tried, above all, to learn more about steal, take advantage of spots I would ignore, etc.

So I'm ready to take this to another level and I'm going to try the 500$ mark.

June: 400$ inluding races and rakeback! Nice!

And...WHAT A RIDE!

Wowwwwwwwwwww

And why the heck did I loose so much?

Well, mini-tilt, lots of wrong cards and the wrong moments and it was fish day (weekend).

As osiris (one of my personal teachers:) ) said one time, on weekend if you run good, you get rich. If you run bad, god damn, you'll be homeless (ok, not exactly like this but you get the picture:) )

Sweet! I did misplayed this one, my raise wasn't big enough but the outcome would be the same nevertheless.

http://weaktight.com/1226458
No info on this guy so I almost snap folded. If I knew what I found out later the night, I would have insta called. He had A9 with no clubs. Nice hand, creative move:)

Then I started to put the pressure on and donks continue to do what they do best: look at their cards and chase down almost everything.

Well, sometimes that is just not enough and I manage to swing 128 down and up again.

What a ride.

Nl20 - Now we are talking.

Hi there.

After reading the title you might expect me to show you some mountain graph where I would prove I've won more than 500$, just on the tables.

Well, I "just" won 100$ on more or less 8k hands. I feel I could win a lot more but after recalling some sessions, I had one 40$ down session with just pure plain sick beats - had more than AA 6 times, and lost almost all of them, at least 5. Some of them I've showed you before so you can get the picture.

All in all, being 100$ up is pretty cool for the second shot at NL20, where I feel I have an edge over several players despite the fact I'm still doing several mistakes, in my opinion, pretty noobish.

Nevertheless I've improved a lot and now I'm trying to increase my steal percentage and trying to take advantage of specific spots, where steals work better - both pre-flop and pos-flop. I usually don't 2nd barrel much as I though in general these players when calling the flop would also call turn.

I need to get those small pp's to call flop and fold on the turn, so let's start shooting more bullets, shall we?

My english is getting worse by the post, I know..:)

And for your eyes only...Jennifer Love Hewit! God...

Nice, Sunday Swingy Sundayyyy

Hi there and...

....WOW!!!!

What the hell is going on?!?!? Had a siiiick run...since images or history is worth a thousand words, here are some hands...

Smell it...smell it...NOW TAKE IT!
http://weaktight.com/1181959

Come on..bring it on!!! Is that all you've got?
http://weaktight.com/1181933

Kiss me please. Why? Because I like getting kiss while I'm getting f*ck*d...
http://weaktight.com/1181908

Had other ones...nice!

Still..."just" 40$ down..could be worst, I still have my car..

No news

Hi there

Been running pretty smooth on NL20, think I'm doing pretty well and really learned a lot.

Not much to talk about so goodbye for now:)

Went to dinner with a friend of mine yersterday, so I couldn't play much.





Kisses, Heidi!

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn (about NL10)

Hi!!

I'm at NL20 and guess what, winning!

I feel like I've improved A LOT, thanks to a lot (well, not that much)reading but more to two friends (still "just" msn friends) that share between them a lot of patiente.

Even when they are getting hit pretty hard on the table they find the courage and strenght to not tell me to go f*** myself but to help me with my own set of questions and doubts, regarding specifics hands.

God bless:)

So, all and all, I was struggling at NL10 and was about even/down a few buyins and made a personal objective of just going to NL20 when I reached the 1500$ mark.

Well, I went up on about 940$ :) Still, I knew by now i had the mental strenght to avoid or accept swings and I felt I had improved a lot since my first shot at the 20$ stacks buyin.

All is going very very well and I'm up 120$ on NL20 alone, feeling pretty confidant and knowing I'm making several good decisions overall.

Let's head for 2k roll, shall we?

And now, let me introduce you to another friend:

God help us all...by us i mean men...

Still on NL10, with a shot at sngs

Hi!

Wow, Races are fun! Manage to win from races along something like 200$ + 20$. Then I won some more at rakeback..all and all, I finished April above 1000$.

Yes, I should have 2k by now but as you remember had my little downswing (poor play, poor luck, mini-tilt, etc) at NL20 so all is good.

Gonna try soon NL20 again, can't wait!!:)

What do you know...even!

Hi!

Well, I've been down to 265$, 270$ (etc) and then manage to build up to 280$ once more.

From the hands I've reviewed, most of the stacked situations I've been into i was ahead by a mile.

Ex.: AA with a K94 flop against a weak opponent who decided to go all in. Insta call - he probably had Kx. No..he had 88 and an 8 hit the river. Things like that.

So I'm very proud of the achievement I've accomplished regarding my poker skills: I feel I've got a lot better since the beginning of the month. I still don't feel at ease to harass NL20 tables again, but in a couple of weeks I might give it another shot.

Can't wait to get some cash from the cards - I'm probably quitting my job in a few weeks, sick of some stuff happening - my boss is way over the line with a few sh$t his been babling about.

At least I have my OWN company to support me in these time of crisis:)

Soon I'll write about my balance from April.

For now, FU swine flu!!

God speed to those of you in affected places!

Upswing? Or solid play?

Hello!

I've manage to build up to 280$, with what I think was solid play. Yesterday something funny happened.

I was in a table with a player that way overvalued his hands and I was harassing him for a while - managed to get half a buyin from him when everyone else left and the table was, at the time being, HU.

I know I suck at HU play. I'm fairly average/bad (before I was only bad) on cash game but I really suck at HU - nevertheless he was really bad and loved loved loved to chase me around with weaker pairs, bottom pairs, gutshots, the works.

I thought I could give it a go. That didn't work too well and I was down 15$ for the day - the last days I managed to end up the day up, even if just for a few bucks.

Felt a little frustated but I've quitted the tables nevertheless - lost a stack to runner runner straight with TPTK.

Next day I was able to recover all of it and profit more or less 2bis so I'm standing now at 280$ on the poker room, where my main goal is, before end of the month, to put this at 500$ or more, making, once more, the 1000$ bankroll I had starting April.

As far as I'm concern, I'm happy this thing happened - I found out I was making LOADS of errors and bad moves and now, despite the fact I'm still down for the month, I feel I've increased the quality of my game.

Fear me, NL20.

All this rollercoaster with my roll will, at least, give a sweet graph!

Finally, some sense

Hello

Well, I'm now oficially playing at 6 tables simultaneous.

I started a session losing with KK vs QQ pf (all in) to a Q on the flop, JJJ on the flop to a all in flush draw with the flush appearing on the river and losing two races both to shorstacks (20bbs and 17bbs): one I had AK and lost to PP and the other I had a small pp (66 I think) and lost to A9 with a 9 on the flop.

So, starting off with 2 buyins down, I needed to be focus in order to make this work.

Therefore I logged on into the msn while I was playing, and talked and play, put hands on weaktight and play, review hands while playing (and play), etc.

What the hell was I thinking?

As soon as I focused, I started squeezing my buddy Osiris with loads of questions, some standard, others not so much.

Following his advices and some thumb rules from the book I bought (thanks for the tip, Osi :) ) I manage to recover from the 2bis down to a 1,3bi up.

Not so much for the money, I'm genuinly happy to manage to think througout most of the hands, making well thought decisions (even if some were dubious or just plain incorrect) and overall, avoid making donk mistakes.

No more stacks give away with TPTK, mates!

I feel I'm increasing as a player and I hope my bankroll reflects just that. According to my records, I'm down 255$ for the month,including the 80$ of the HM and not counting any rake back/race awards I will receive.



Another thing: I've surfed around and found out that there are inumerous (and far more interesting) poker blogs around so I've got to get me some leverage.
