Poker Tracker 2.05.01 is available for download.
Found another leak. AhKc According to Poker Tracker, I’ve had Ace-King offsuit 21 times, winning 28.57% of the time, but losing 28.75 BB in the process. It’s one of those hands I have a hard time getting away from, especially when I’m getting pot odds to call after the flop and turn. I’m going to […]
I can’t bring myself to take a free card on the river. In the back of my mind I’m always thinking they’ll fold if I bet, so then I do. This weakness is easily costing me 1-2 BB/hr.
There’s talk about eliminated three pointers from the NBA until the final 5 minutes of a game. My guess is it’ll be a short talk.
Did you know that last night would have been opening night in the NHL?
I don’t vote because I don’t pay attention to the issues. Simple as that. I’m not going to waste my vote on something I don’t know about. It’s not that I don’t care about the elections, laws, and all of the political hoopla; I just don’t feel like taking the time to read about the candidates, watch the debates, or get involved. I have the right to vote, but I choose not to take advantage of it.
Do you vote? Why or why not?
Two days ago I mentioned an article where 26 high school cross country runners had been DQ’d for wearing a LiveSTRONG band during their race. Officials have reversed the ruling on 10 of the athletes.
My game is steadily improving each time I play. I’ve started reading Small Stakes Hold ’em: Winning Big With Expert Play for the 2nd time in the last few weeks and I’m catching a lot of stuff I missed the first time around. The $20-some odd I paid for the book was worth every cent.
I haven’t really tilted like I used to in the past few days. When I get beat by someone hitting their two out draw on the river I think completely different from how I used to. Before SSH, I’d think, “Jesus Christ, another fucking miracle card for these assholes!” Now I think, “Keep playing just like that fish. I’ll beat you way more often when you have those cards than you’ll beat me. Push the chips over here next time.” Once you come to the reality that you need players to actually hit these “miracle” draws once in awhile, it makes all the difference. If they never hit them, they wouldn’t keep playing them and paying you off. It’s as simple as that.
I still have leaks/weaknesses in my game. A lot of them. But in a short period of time, with the help of SSH, I’m a lot better player than I was 2 or 3 weeks ago. The single biggest improvement in my game has been increasing my aggressiveness during all betting rounds. It’s winning a lot more pots than the old passive player I was. My post flop play can still get pretty bad at times. I tend to give away bets when it’s pretty clear I’m beat.
Want to improve your game? Buy SSH, buy Poker Tracker, and start playing low limit cash games on Party Poker. If you are serious about your game, you shouldn’t have any problems winning on their tables with all of the fish swimming around. Start small and think big.
You’re out shopping for a few things and notice that the cashier didn’t charge you for something. Do you bring it up and ask him/her to charge you for it or do you go on with your business and take the item, free of charge? After all, stores don’t come running after us when they overcharge us for something do they?
What would you do?
