Fun Player's Guide to the Galaxy

Fun Player's Guide to the Galaxy

Well let's see.... I'm here, but not quite sure what I'm doing here.
I mean I don't feel drunk.

I thought 7/9 would be a fitting date to mark the start point of whatever this will be. 79 being my favorite hand and all. Yes one thing you should know about fun players is that we all have our favorite hand. Usually it ties back to some big pot you won from playing badly and running godly. For me that hand is 79

I guess the purpose of this thread is to provide me an outlet to post random updates related to poker.

I haven't played a whole lot in recent years due to time constraints. Live poker is just so time consuming. But I have managed to fit in 1 or 2 tourneys a year and the occassional cash session once a month or so. Not much to write home about. I min cashed some $1100 event last summer and am up a fair amount in the limited cash I've played.

I also play some online, but options for Americans are pretty crappy. I mostly play 100NL 6 max on ignition and some of their tourneys once in awhile. I recently checked out Bet Online and have dabbled in 50NL 6max. The player pool is super small. There seems to be like maybe 10 regs and a handful of random weaker players. At peak hrs there are maybe 4 tables going. I play without a HUD so I'm only 1 or 2 tabling anyways.

I plan on playing the Monster Stack again next year, but will also schedule time so I can play the ME as well. It would be nice to subsidize that with my cash play. So I guess the main goal/challenge is to make $11,500 within about 150hrs of play.
And the side quest will be to make a good showing in the tourneys.

As for where my game is at: Though I've played relatively little, I've actually studied quite a bit. My thoughts on the game in both cash and tournaments has changed quite dramatically over the last few years. I feel my tournament fundamentals have become more solid, but I still find myself Selbsting off my stack near every money bubble. This is one thing I've never bothered to fix. I think it's time now to stop that and see what it does for my results.

For this month I can probably fit in one cash session and I will also be playing a $1650 at the end of the month.

For cash I typically play 2/5 and 5/10.

I guess I can close out with a HH.
One hand I played on my recent Vegas trip.
5/10 NL
Villain is MAWG with about 2200, hero covers.

PF: Villain opens UTG to 30, hero UTG+1 3bets to 110 with AQo, HJ cold calls, folds back to Villain who calls.

Flop(345): J 8 7r
Villain leads 200, hero makes it 600, fold, villain calls.

Turn(1545): Q
Villain checks, hero checks

River(1545): 7
Villain bets 500, hero raises to 1k, villain makes crying call and mucks.

Thanks glad you're enjoying it!

Just about hit 20k hands at 200B. Did a good job reducing the punts today.

This one felt especially good because opponent is a bot.
For some reason I run like god vs the bots and run like death vs the whales.
I think I've stacked Chaptol and Meifong1 like 6 or 7 times a piece.

Wow. Legit had probably one of the sickest bad runs in the past 3 days that I can ever remember in my entire life. This counts all the hell at Ignition.

Down 80 buy ins in 3 days. Not sure what I'm going to do for now other than take an extended break.


my worst run ever over about a 2 week period playing live in macau and is a period of my life i can barely remember - it's like i blacked most of it out

was so deep in the emotional black hole that i genuinely forget both about my birthday and a us presidential election (was abroad and solo so obviously easier to be out of sight out of mind)

when i got home i legit slept about 30 hours straight and continued sleeping about 16 hours a day for next few days

took a long break from poker (luckily wasn't playing for a living then so losing that income stream was not a big financial hit)

once i came to, i realized just how little of the time i remembered, when i went through my phone's camera roll and chat history it was all these pictures and conversations i didn't recall ever happening

it's important to note, i was neither drinking nor taking drugs on that trip so it's not like i was on a bender - each day i believed myself to be clear headed and focused and ready to battle

to this day i don't know if my brain just decided to repress that awful trip from my memory or something else was going on and hence why i was so bad at poker

but yeah, waking up in your hotel room, realizing you missed your flight and then you go online to book another and before you load up the ticket site you see on the landing page news about the new president and then you realize "oh yeah that happened" and then you look at the date and realize yesterday was your birthday - that's quite the surreal experience


Sorry Spyu, that's really rough. Hope the break is a good reset and when you come back you run well.


80 buyins in 3 days? Is that even physically possible?

Yeah during most of the run I felt pretty frustrated and angry. Towards the end it was more of disbelief and just kind of numb apathy.

Thanks I really appreciate the sentiment.

80 buyins in 3 days? Is that even physically possible?

Most of the hands are not interesting. It's more the collective outcome of them. Apparently the stars aligned perfectly not in my favor.

Don't get me wrong I tilt punted a good 20 buy ins, but it was still pretty horrific to get the money in on the turn as a 95% favorite and losing for the 8th time in a row just that day. And have it continue the next day and the next.

The bright side is the money lost is basically the profits I made the past 6 months and in either case wasn't life impacting.
Just hits hard when you lose it in such a compressed amount of time in an unbelievable way.

This was me running hot. The rare time I get lucky and don't lose the pot.

Thought to dip my toes in today. Which makes this the 6th in a row I've lost AA vs QQ aipf. haha



Oh I guess I'll post the trainwreck of a graph for closure. Enjoy.



wow


My condolences, that is the worst downswing I've ever seen in my life


Sorry about the death run Spyu, that is some real run bad. Maybe grab a few beers at Oaks and try to play that big limit game that Lee Jones keeps saying is so soft and win back your money in 300 hands.

What limit game is that? I only played the 2/3/5/10 there.

Thanks. I was so close to Legend status that I'm forcing myself to play just to hit it and then just withdraw out the crumbs I have left in my account.

And these were the hands I get immediately.

No this is not some montage I pulled together from the past year. These were all from today and yesterday in basically 2 different sessions.

This is on top of the death run I already had. I know I sound crazy, but at this point I'm just convinced there's some curse or whatever the F on my account. I just don't see how I can just keep losing like 20 flips in a row and every 95/5 spot endlessly and only getting the bad side of KK vs AA and set over sets, etc.

But yeah after I grind this last 1k points I'm done w/ ACR.


Then you got this dude that calls a 5bet jam pf. Not sure how many of these I've lost, but I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've won this spot.



😅 Sorry, I'm that guy... hopped on last night after getting home from the casino. I recognized your ID and may have been drinking so I decided to give you some action.
