this didnt go as well. But, i personally screwed up two of these, then didnt get any breaks. In theory, i should catch one or two breaks along the way. Still up a little overall - this is 30 total. At 50 i will post all my 50 numbers and take stock of where i am at. Right now after 30 SnGs - i am at +$30. So that is $330 invested to win $30.
I think my 2nd set of numbers was unusually high. I am hoping that this set is a bit low due to me f'ing up and cards not falling my way. --------------------------- 10 SnG - $10 - 100% system: --------------------------- 1 - 2nd +19 2 - out (QQ vs A9;AQvAK) -11 3 - out (bubble K10 v A4) -11 4 - out (5th KK vs A7) -11 5 - 3rd (i blew this) +09 6 - 3rd (KQ vs A10) +09 7 - out (78s vs calin A3o)-11 8 - out (A7s vs 10,10) -11 9 - bubble (66 vs KK) -11 i blew this one 10 - bubble (QJ vs AK) -11 rag flop, turn J - and the inevitable K on river ----------------------------- totals 1 2nd 2 3rds 2 bubbles loss of -40 |

How do you blow something if you are following a system? Wouldn't that mean that the system blew it? Or are you not following it properly or misclicking or something?

When you get to be a HUGE stack - there is in theory some wiggle room for playing. So, if my chip count is like 6k and the blinds are 75/150 - then it suggest raising like 5-6x the BB as an 'advanced' strategy.
Since i am evidently a complete moron - i have to stick to push or fold. The problem with that when it is 3-4 handed and the stacks are that big compared to the blinds (if people get knocked out early) is that the continous push puts a lot less pressure on them since they can be very patient and wait and wait for a big hand. But, i am going to go back to push or fold since for whatever reason over the last year i evidently lost any ability to play cards. |

I think personally that you are thinking about your poker game too much. I mean I like your experimenting with this and I like seeing the results you posted but still...
You went deep in the Aussie Million like a year ago, there is no way you are a bad player... You need to get back to your name and like TP said in another thread just start building your roll back up and play some 3 digit tournaments again because you are a pretty good tournament player and this is what you might need to get your game back to your old level.

I've gone over this with bdawg time and time and time again. He's completely lost his confidence and he EXPECTS to lose over and over and over again. And it happens. It's very difficult to quantify, but I am a strong believer that your mental attitude (your expectations) affect your play which of course affect your results.
And I'm not talking about that ONE HAND where you take a bad beat after getting your money in with the best of it... I'm talking about the combination of ALL the hands - especially when we are talking about cash games. Tourneys are naturally going to have more variance with many more losses in between cashes. |

I know that mental is a big part of my problem. Believe me - a year of ass kickings can where one down. I try to get refocussed. I try to get my confidence up. Ironically, when i start feeling semi-decent about my game - then i usually get it up the ass again.
I am just trying to grind out the low-limits and accumulate some rakeback so i can slowly get back into the swing of things. |
