June — Donkaments / Update
I haven’t made a blog post in awhile, so I thought now is as good as time as any!
June has been alot of hit or miss for me, I think about 3 days in I took a shot that went very very badly..wah wah wah,, i ran about 8k below equity.. but that being said even if i ran at normal equity during that shot i would have lost 2k.. I just ran into alot of coolers.. was getting outplayed and pushed off hands and could NOT pick up anything on key pots.. I did not play well, nor run well, and that in turn means 5 figure losses.. =*(
>_<
I’ve been playing alot of shorthanded, my 5/10 cap results this month started off ok, but have since dwindled.. I think im on a 5k slide in that game, but its fine with me because I’m just running bad in 6handed games.. The shorthanded games/HU games I have in my mind been playing not my “A” game, but at the very least my “B” game so I’ve been winning there.. I really enjoy shorthanded alot more and am getting better and evaluating hand ranges/player psychology
Oh yea played 2 WSOP satellite donkaments on the 15th I think.. Lost the Pokerstars one 3rd hour in where i raise 40% of my stack in cutoff,, big blind shoves T6s, and smokes my AKs.. standard donkament.. The second one on full tilt i made it to the 4th hour, after running into aces twice, get crippled.. win AJ>44, then QT>K8, but I could not win JJ v KQ so I lost that. No worries.
More on the Cap games,, at 5/10 there isn’t anyone I don’t think I wouldnt play “HU4ROLLZ”.. there are so many dumb/bad regulars who think they are good, one called “huspecialist” sits with me,, gets up 900 in about 40 hands then says oh I g2g, I want it 3handed+.. also ironically after calling me a fish.. So im thinking if im such a fish, why not PLAY? so many people at that level just chirp chirp chirp and it’s really annoying, cause I want to play them not because of my ego, but because I KNOW im better then them
Here’s a funny story.. Today was playing 25/50 Cap.. An agressive fish who will remain nameless sits and quickly gets up about 4k on me, then does the standard “oh I have to go”.. well obviously he has to go, I’m sure he has a train or some bullshit to catch am i right? So after that I’m down about 4k and not feeling that great…
Now a decent but not amazing reg sits down.. we start to battle and he gets up 1.5k before I pull back to even. We agree to say lets keep it heads up,, I don’t mind my situation here because I do think im better then him.. Now here is the funny part, another regular who’s pretty good but an asshole sits in and starts playing 3handed when we BOTH request HU.. he says go to a HU table but obv there are no HU cap tables.. so its a moot point.. At this time we both sit out and the 3rd guy who joined is down $100 bucks or 2 big blinds.. He says he will leave if I give him back the 2 big blinds (remember this is after he sat in when we both wanted hu, before we had a chance to sit out) I say “F that” and the guy who I wanted to play, the first guy, leaves.. So I’m pretty mad at this other guy, and I do think I have a small edge on him, but by no means he a bad player so I decided to play him on 2-tables.. Like 150 hands later he quits me stuck about $6k to me.. LOL.. yea right im gonna give your blinds back after you break up our mutual HU game.. come and get it.. anyways that kind of cheered me up even though im still down this month at 25/50 Cap… This post feels really long,,,almost 700 words so I think i will end it here for now, to anyone who is still reading all this jargon GL at tables except if your playing me.
