If I'm playing daily I'll be blogging daily for now.
Am session
1. Deepo, not good. Not happy w/ my play. Shoved J9 udg short & ran into some big hands but I could've/should've
-folded through. it's the same situation; you need a double up. U might get a bb spec or will be in LP, which is prob worth the chips even around 10bb.
-Or it's fine and I just lost
2. PLO 2x $1 W
3. $2 L (bubble... got short. uneventful.)
4. 2 $2 PLO8s on Cake 2-0... Happy w/ my play. I'm starting to get a sense of how many randoms it takes to have max edge. My list is growing... there seem 2b more randoms, but it could just be the long weekend.
-Mon today MLK
5. .50 2r 1a 24-max. Cash 4th on bb. Very deep on the bubble... effective stacks around 30-40bb 4-handed. Another reason to get better @ short-handed play.
-These are great ones for me to play!!! I get to start w/ 3k and these idiots will only play so badly b/c of the max 2 add-ons. Take 3k up front... worst case it's 4 bis.
-accordingly lets stick to the .50s when possible until convinced.
-or really a $1 is a $3 usually. Starting w/ 3k w/ only 3 levels b4 the addon I like my chances.
-it was not full
PLO frustrating @ the moment. I got it in the last 2 bubbles w/ a sick draw... whatever. I can't win them all. It'd be interesting to compare my $2 to $3 results. $3s do play spewier it seems. The Ras and Jason Xs might play $2 but rarely $3 and not $5.
Wow... Going w/ my gut unfiltered is going well lately. I was playing a $1 NL SG on Cake last night and, starting w/ a dead $ grab w/ k4s from the sb on hand 1 (bet flop took down)... I was really on top of it. Use that as your randomization process. Go w/ your gut...
Bet-sizing might be the one exception... but then again that works pretty well to.
It'd be a cool expiriment to keep playing $1s all loose and goofy (I think I was 42 17 or something)... but mostly just making more moves and doing more weird shit. If I can get away from these big startings hands @ the right time (and the feel fold could be a self ful proph... will miss flop 2/3 of time)... the correlate to balance that out is making confusing plays.
If I over-limp AQs in pos 1 hand then get caught going for a steal... it'll confuse people. They'll think I'm a spew tard, then I'll just play solid.
IE thought to myself "AK gets called by worse hands" and super shoved over a UDG limp, getting called by an idiot's A4o. I won too.
Go w/ that voice in your head. All these old school players who are just thinking board textures, pot odds, implied odds... not crazy combo zoon mode... Mixing it up is ok, as long as you have some reference point for them. It's no good to make some random move if it does 0 for my table image. On the other hand, 1st impressions are lasting. 1 donk play, esp a winning play, and they'll love me.
Residual Last Hand Glitch:
I've found lately that I'm tempted to play hands that either I just had and wouldn't hit with or somebody else just won a big pot w/... often big card hands. Recognize that and think twice before making that move... Just becoming aware.
-Don't factor things in like "this could be THE J9 I WAS THINKING OF" ie today's deepo. I was dealt J9s +1 and folded. I think I should've moved in. Next hand J9o, shove KO.
Good thing to recognize. Try to id how that feels differently from the fear response or true gut feeling.
You have to find some format to start opening up your game in. Those $1 10-min sngs are not idea... but you have a lot of play in your stack for quite a while. I am curious how I'd do in NL 6-max games, but I'm trying not to play away games so much.
SG1 on Cake might be a great place to splash around, 3-bet light more, play my pos more, float more, semi-bluff more. Only do this when you really want to.
Early mid play in the deepo is a good time too. You have to accumulate w/ those 5min levels. You have to go for more plays based on steal equity.That thing's $1.
It's fine line. Just b/c you've been playing lag and it's been working doesn't mean you can't gear back. Look @ your own stats... if ridic, you can slow down. Anybody w/ a hud or paying attention... that's the right adjustment. The 1-gear LAG thing only is profitable in situations where you... as Jerry said "make moves then be around long enough to capitalize on them."
This is why deep-stack cash-game buy-ins, deep MTTs (WSOPC 10ks are a great place to try this style... go w/ gut. Make moves. You have 5 zillion bb.)
Play chip NL is ridic. Learn what you can when playing the mixed-games @ 'high lims' but... not the best forum.
If I keep running it up and/or become more confident in my NL game, I can start to play some $4 bis/100bb. Do I do better in PLO8 cash-games? They suit my style better... perfect example... In a game like that where you should play tight preflop, I have to be patient and wait for a good spot. Hit and runs don't work as well b/c you're just not likely to set up that freeroll right off the bat.
Re PO/NO $: I should play some. If I'm really going to make my living @ this ever, I need to do it. Hopefully we're still going up on Cake. Maybe look into those 10 min level NL SNGs on Merge, whatever they are. 2.20 18 mans? Meh
