Hi all,

i hadn't intended on blogging until i got my act together, which i may now be achieving finally.

BUT today i got my second ROYAL FLUSH this MONTH.

The bonus from Carbon Poker, is unfortunately, only the buyin of the table one is playing.







I've been on a losing streak for w while now.

I'm really working hard to get my shit together these days, as i'm pretty disgusted with my play over the last 12 months.

So once again I took a hard look at my 200+ K database, and worked out generally what what hands won and where. As i've said before i always have a sheet on my lap with my ranges and special instructions, including the DO NOT DO EVER category. Hopefully now i'll turn things around. Also ive noted that betting any hand from SB into BB is plus EV. Similarly when unopened on the button, any pair, and AX/AXs and any suited hands when bet 3X into the blinds is plus EV. So I'm looking to see some progress finally in the months till the end of this year.

I've had a couple of winning session yesterday and today, with my ever evolving ranges.

Also ive decided to datamine my loss/per hand from the blinds. So i worked out the overall average to date and im compiling forward going data, to see if my play is improving. The blinds was one place i lost the most $$. Hence i hope the exensive resent analysis of the problem improves things.

Of late I've tended to be playing better from the blinds when i saw the flop, but the result are staggering behind in terms of comparative EV, so hopefully things will continue to improve.







For some time now ive be building a spread sheet of showdown result of =>50bb wins and losses.


The data is averaged over all, then the difference, or improvement charted.

Here is the current situation. I seem to be reaching an optimum skill level, but still improving slightly.

The data in the chart is somewhat irrelevant other that its direction over the last 239 K of hands played.







Sorry about all the charts, but its the only way to show progress.


Like it or not I haven't the patience to play 4 tables and im not good at either taking notes or using the hud to beat players. Hence my search for optimum multitabling hand ranges.

Of late there has been problems with my computer hanging up, and it seems to come from the HM postgre data uptake, which sucks on available memory too much.

So ive started playing without HM open, hence NO HUD. And to be quite frank its pretty useless to me when playing a lot of tables, and i want to play as many as possible.

My ranges and hands to play, where and when have now been optimized, and only occasionally do i have to look at the data sheet on my lap.

Hopefully my effort will continue to pay off.

I want to get a good amount of hands in on the bottom, ala Adamwill lol, then when i prove that i can win multitabling over like 60 K of hands, i'll move on up and repeat.


Good luck to you all out there.

Poker sucks, but it does fill in my day quite nicely.

And by nature im tenacious, ala the bike i'll sprint against anyone i can.

I'll be damned if i can't beat this game, at some level.
