RIP BETFAIR

RIP BETFAIR

My first pokersite ever ( where i made loads of online pokerfriends ) has officially been replaced by BF2 which is part of the Ongame network. Out of curiousity i took a look yesterday and : OMG this software and layout really sucks lol. So this isn't a site i plan on playing anymore in the future. I will stick to Stars and open a new account on another site where i get a good deal and a nice signup bonus. Any ideas/suggestions are welcome.

I just hope i stay in touch with all the guys i met there over the last 3 years and whom i really enjoyed playing/chatting with !!!

Still is unbeliavable how a site like BF who attracts lots of gamblers didn't succeed in building a nice pokersite. They fecked up bigtime by only rewarding superturbo players and focus on the gambling part for a 100%. They never took in account some people actually like to play a decent pokergame...

Cheers

Break

I'm gonna take a week non-poker. Been having this downswing on SNG's lately and thought yesterday i give a shot at cash. Well had 3 sets over sets ( two of whom hit on turn after allin on flop )against, had 2 times AA beaten preflop by AK and just had QQ beaten by 32 sooooted to leave me running 200$ below EV yet again. I'm so sick of it at the moment , but also proud i did stop instead of tilt, that i'm gonna take a week's break.

I'm looking into a business proposal and if this works out i will give up on poker completely. The donks getting rewarded and leaving me frustrated just isn't worth the extra cash. If it doesn't work out i will have to try and live amongst the donks ..... And cope with the swings and beats... !!!!

No way ure bluffing me ;-)

Strike on PS !!!

Due to all the changing laws in European countries it's becoming harder and harder to be a pro - grinder. Now in France PS has doubled the Rake ( they say due to TAX reasons ). French pokerplayers are stating , obviously , that a doubled rake is no longer beatable.

So they 're going on strike and going for a massive SIT OUT now sunday.

Prop bet

Since the beginning of the bet :





Still a long way to go , but nice start .........

Sick variance

As i stated in my last mails i had some real sick shit happening to me the end of june. But since then lady luck has found me again, i control my game better and am not tilting anymore. Am up like 500$ in 3 sessions in July and have found another elak !!!!!! The leak is : i start playing with the intention of playing like 40-50 games and when i see on Scope i'm up like 140 after 15 i stop !!!!!!!!!!!! Hell what the feck. LOL. I guess it's kinda normal, i haven't ever been putting in as much games as i have done since a few weeks and i tend to be happy when i have a nice 150$ session and like to consolidate my profit. I'll get used to it too and then i won't stop at 150$, so be warned guys !!!

Winter time will for sure be easier to keep on playing, as for now, i'm going to make a MTB ride in the sunshine

:-)

GL in general,

Superturbo + Donk in poker = donk in life...

It's crazy, today i made it to HU's of a 12$ 6 MAX regular game at Stars while we were still at blinds 15/30 ( second level ). Can you imagine 4 players going broke at this stage ??? The bubble was actually A10 versus A7 AIP for like 100BB each lol. It's sick.

Every game is played like a superturbo it feels to me.

Gonna up the aggresivity some more on flops and turns instead of preflop raising. You get played too much back at with hands like QJ or KJ , K10 AIP to make stealing very profitable in the middle stages.

Gonna play my draws much harder postflop and my premiums much faster preflop. AA - KK just get it allin and hope you get called by AJ , 88 or so in the first levels. No use in raising 6 - 8 BB if you get 4 callers is there ????

Free info for all out there lol.

Donks


Other interesting thing is this : i really think if you're a donk in poker you must be a donk in life, after all , it's an ezgame ...

So this guy get his money in on flop with 27%, lucky to have the 3 outs of aces as i could hold aces as well which would leave him 15% . OFC as the blogguy ( me ) runs very good lately he hits his 27% shot.

Which leaves him to say this ( i normally don't have the chat on but saw in the HH ):
" serves you right " !!!

Serves me right ???????

Well jimmyj80 : have i got news for you :

533 games , minus 1766 $ == Serves you right .
