5/150 Regular Discussion

[clarkstar]

argh variance strikes me down. lost 2 buy ins last night. JJ vs QQ and 10 10 vs AK 

[CrazyLond]

I played a bit this morning and it was pretty wild.  For some reason I ended up in a ton of huge pots.  I ended up going down about $500 and then coming back to end the session down just $90.

i think i'm gonna stick to playing friday and/or saturday. seems to be more profitable than against the regulars

Encountered some wild hostility last night for like the first time ever. Anyone see this new kid? He's kind of a fatty, says he comes from Chicago, and WILL NOT shut his mouth. I talked back at him obv, which he hated so much haha, and he went into crazy spew mode and called me a f*g every second hand till he busted.

i was up there for a few hours last night and did not see it so i don't know who youre talking about. that kind of behavior should have got him kicked out!

on a side note, what did you use to create that Hand history from your earlier post?

Sticks and stones hehe. People can say whatever they want while donating. I should maybe write up the whole thing, because it's a pretty funny story.

Flopturnriver.com has an online hand history converter, so I just used one of my online HHs and edited the stacks and hands. CAZpoker admin has added the pip smilies now though, so that would probably be easier.

man some drunk guy got furious with me last night when i sucked out a boat on his straight. he left for a while and came back and was up when i left so he was happy again...

happy to report another + session! although the margins the last 2 nights have been slim, and heavily contested...

I did a 7 hour session last night to avoid studying for a test I've got tomorrow.  It was the best 5/150 session I've had in quite some time, ending up about $600.  I never had AA, KK, TT, 99 or 88.  I had QQ once (the first hand of the night.)  An unknown player raised to 25, I reraised to 60 and he came over the top another $100.  I laid down the QQ and he said he had KK.  I had JJ one time and raised pre, got a few callers and took it down on K-rag-rag flop.  Most of my wins came from hitting flushes.  I made a couple bad calls on the river which is something I know I do too much and am working on.  However, I was pleased overall with my play especially since I'd been playing for many hours previously online.

At one of the tables I was at (got moved a few times due to consolidating tables) there was one guy who was heckling a lot of the other players and then when we got down to 4 he turned his attention to me.  He was actually one of the more obnoxious players I've seen at a table which is saying quite a lot.  I don't personally get very affronted by another player talking trash since more often than not, it's a sign he's steaming.  However, I do think some people should be more careful...casinos are not exactly filled with the upper-crust of society.  They just apprehended a guy at the Commerce who was wanted for a triple-murder back in New York.  I think that since televised poker has become popular, people have taken to acting like some of the fools they see on TV.  I always try not to take out my frustrations on someone else because you never know who you're going to [censored] off.

nice job. i went monday again and pissed away my weekend winnings. no more weekday trips for me.

re the heckler sometimes headphones really come in handy...

My darn wireless network seems to be down and right now I'm stealing off some weak local signal.  Maybe it's a sign I should be playing cards instead of trying to get this stupid thing working.  I have historically had more success on Saturday night than Friday night but I think it's just variance because the games seem similar.

Not necessarily.  If you have a day job or go to school, and then go to the casino Friday night, and the game is exactly the same on Saturday, but you are more rested, you may perform better even though the game doesnt look any different.

That's a good point.  It's amazing how many little things can change a profitable situation into a less profitable or losing one.
