He just blasted $190 into a $10 pot immediately following that hand.

I likes.
 
Fucking grinding.

The swings are ridiculous but like I predicted, the fish come out late at night.

Let's see what we can do.

God damn this is some serious shit, for real. But I do believe in my system.
 
Just lost roughly $400 on a big pot on an ace where I had JJ and he had QQ.

We both made good reads. Great play man, how the fuck did you know I didn't have an ace?
 
That's really fucking annoying and $10k bank account balance is something I like. I do know that despite how I feel this could go FAR worse.

Might be done Tron and friends. I was so stupid to go for it and got played like the mule I am online. I didn't decide I could compete with anyone online ring so such as life, maybe as life.

How the fuck did he read me there? I know he's a calling station that just couldn't get away from it and I made a VERY bad play against a calling station.

Unreal.

Shit happens.

Tbh I had a read on fold equity there, and he didn't make it because he was just in love with his hand. No great read on his part, just in love with his hand.

It happens.

Not happy with my play last night. Drunk, stupid shit. You don't call a $57 3 bet from a player you have no reason to think is a fish, and you don't shove on a short stacks because short stacks are often calling stations. Lost $420 in that session.

There was one fish at 2/5 where a shark typed in after he left "come back! He paid my rent last month!" so at least we gained a good new one to look for.

Run good, gents.
 
Fish bozabxtch14 seated at 2/5 so we are in line to play him.

Let's see what we can do.
 
Very fishy play from Blotto here. He's around a good bit. Maybe he just sucks anyway? Two notes - don't bluff him, and bet large for value.

Crazy shit here.

Blotto calls all in with weak top pair and gets cleaned out (he just rebought). Badbeat calls big $$ looking for the flush. Kkdog played 10q suited like fucking aces preflop flops the fucking nuts.

The fuk?

Blotto cleans out Boza (KK vs JJ) who logs off. Decided not to pursue playing Blotto because if he's playing 2/5 so much he's probably doing something right.
 
Brother Steve, I believe you should worry less about whose a fish and more about an overall proper strategy. I think Doug Polk and Dan Harrington would agree :☝
 
Good say Reno. I do somewhat agree, but online I see my only area of opportunity as playing the absolute worst fish so with all due respect I am going to be doing this until I come to a conclusion on if it can work or not.

I do think my strategy is just fine for low level live play.

Also I appreciate the crew saying I shouldn't be doing this and they're probably right, but I am still seeing what I can do until my bank roll reaches a certain number.

I don't talk to this guy on the reg but he's on my fb because he used to stake me back in the day on the now defunct staking site Parttimepoker. Cool site back in the day. We all made eachother some money.

Anyway, he's really made it. Had a high paying job but decided on high level tourneys instead, grinds some online as well.

He just had a HUGH cash.

Great to see, Mike.
 
The issue I'm seeing Stevie is that you aren't playing nearly tight enough. If you are playing a "only play when fish are at the table" strategy, it sounds like you are less interested in playing game theory optimal and more interested in playing exploitative. And the way you exploit donk fish is valuetowning the shit out of them.

"Called to see what he had" or repping the Ace with JJ, these type of plays arent going to be profitable at low stakes. Bad regs ALWAYS call. Gotta just push your value hard with strong starting hands, try to see cheap flops with hands that can nut up like pocket pairs and Ax suiteds, and then bet like hell when you spike.

I used to suffer from playing too cute at these stakes. OR trying to hard to chase the fish and ending up looking like one myself. Gotta just patiently wait for spot.
