Recovering off a tilt-O

I was gunna log in & relax 3 nights ago, just play a few hundred hands and i got hit by the bad beat/cooler truck. I still haven't learned how to control my tilt either.

I lost w/ every AA and KK QQ i had all in races, twice to the same guy who had 77 both times :(


but i've recovered from this tilt and am almost back to even for the month even though i was up 45 :(

Couple more decent sessions & I'll be back on top.

I try playing 500 hands at a time. that way i can stay focused and then take a break.

Satellite to a cash

I used my full tilt points to satellite to the Daily double B tournament. I didn't make the A tournament & they are a crapshoot so I just played B.

I ran KQ in AQ w/ 50% of the field left and was left with 800 in chips. 3 hands later i got 46 spades & doubled up w/ a river 6 vs Ace Ten. A few hands later I got 910 daimonds & rivered a straigh in a race vs A2 "same guy as Ace ten lol" He was pissed.

Next orbit in the BB i check to turn & hit the nuts str8 w/ 89. 66 UTG slow played his set to the death & I'm at 10k in chips w/ 300 players left -top 180 paid.

I went card dead & got caught trying to pick up blinds twice. Finished in 175th and got 16 bucks, pure profit since satellite was free!

Settle down & play

Last night I got down 40$ & quit, including that 18$.

Today I came out strong & am back up to 94$ bankroll.
Gunna play 5/10cent cash & crawl the roll up after this rollercoaster.

No tournies this week either.

5/10C 6-max

Steadily below avg.

As I write this, I'm playing a 10/25 cent cash game. Today I played a 5$ dubl stack, a 3$ KO and another 5$ tourny. I busted them all & ran poorly earlier in cash games. The turny from yesterday was a bust but i did manage to get back to even in a cash game before quitting.

Am currently down 18 since beginning this blog, but we will try swing back up tonight.


Here's to cashing big / running hott

Let the games begin

Today I started fresh again

I had a buddy create an excel for me to monitor win/loss percentage on a daily basis & I set up some rules for my current bankroll which I started fresh with 100$ Profit that i cashed out earlier this week.

Only play 5$ turnies & less. Can't play cash currently because I hate 5/10 cent. The Rake is too high & play isn't fun But my roll won't tolerate higher.

Gunna play the 3$KO Tonight and maybe the other 3$KO that starts later on. I'll update tonight/tomorrow on my cashes :P

Heeeey

I've been reading posts by Chris Moorman( a poker God) and Jack Powell (another V strong player) for the last six months and I decided I'd start posting about my poker game.

I began playing online 2 years ago with play money while I was in therapy for a broken neck. I'm still wheelchair bound and I attend school at Minnesota State University Marshall, majoring in Biology & Chemistry. I spend almost all my free time playin' cards online, I play some live but stacking other's chips takes so long with my condition. :-P

I started playing for money about a year and a half ago by putting 50 bucks on FTP and playing 5$ SNG's. It lasted a few weeks until I went on mad tilt one day and drained it. I have since deposited 50 dollars on FTP and AP too many times to count, and have also withdrew amounts of 250$ at least 2 times and amounts of 125-200 at least 5 times. I am the type of player who puts 50$ on, runs it up to 180, then takes off 120$ after a couple bad beats 0nly to go broke on the $ left in my account an redeposit 50$

All in all I'd say I've learned to be a break-even player after the rake. I play FTP under Alias quadfive & AP as Qu4d
