Going to have a long break from online

This year has been bad due to bad luck.Because of this I have played fairly bad out of frustration so I have decided to quit online cash for a while.I can't maintain my A-Game due to frustrations from how bad I seem to run.I shouldn't let it get to me but I can't help it just latley so that's that for online cash.I'd been playing HU SNGs and it's hillarous.Last 18 games I have played about 11 times I had 60/40 all ins and lost everytime.I always seem to lose favorites and don't get lucky much either.

I'm going to play more live poker from now on and play MTT's live and online.I have less than $1000 USD online.Part of me thinks I should have played through the bad spot at $400nl on FTP last year rather than move sites,levels but I can't change that stuff now.

Heyho it's off online to live pokers I go.

Live updates,TRs to come.

Huge WTF

I have not won an all in Kings hand for a while.Running terrible with king.Might just open shove it now up to 160BBs try to get some weird value.



The player that I shove on were fish.The ATo v KQs hand he was 96/72/5 with a 3bet of 32% Hand before he had 50BBs and I shoved KJs into his AQs and doubled him up.It was like any ace im smashing it in his face.

The hand with the fish picking up the OESD I was readless other than the HUD.Maybe I should just c/f but I just feel weak if I cant successfully go with my read him being very weak.

I have little confidence in poker these days and days like this make me want to quit.I never seem to run hot.All I seem to do is run bad,super bad or normal.I even have a NITTY style to reduce variance but these fuckers keep on BINKING me lol

Getting bored of cheeseburger stakes

I just fall to bits the more hands I play it seems.My game has been sucking at 50/1 for the last 2-3k hands.I'm break even this month at the level for about 6k hands and have lost motivations.

I played some $400nl on FTP and got into some really interesting spots,one I managed to win a 3bet pot of calling a 3bet preflop in MP after CO had raised and SB called.I'd post the hand if it wasn't so horrible.

Tonight I phoned Party Gaming and asked them to give me a bonus.I got a pretty good deal.
Bonus $925 ( No deposit required)
Hit 5,500 Points in 30 days and you get the lot.It's released in 5 increments of $185-1100 points.

I have always said the PP regs are better than everywhere else and I still think thats true.One habit I know that is a bit of a leak for me at FTP is calling light.This habit is from all the PP fish bluffing or betting light.This is something that everyone does at PP.Everyone calls light in small-medium pots,some times all in 100BB pots(rarer).Maybe this is my theory of why Party Poker tables always seem to produce more action in general.
Anyways I'm trying to play $400nl very underolled.In totall I have about 10 BI for the level with all my funds but at Party I started playing with 2.5BI today which is now just over 3.5BI.Some people may think this is crazy but I actually think it helps me respect money and play better,concentrate harder etc etc.When I first started $200nl in 2008 I had less than 4BI and managed to run up a 15BI BR for $400nl.
I'm definitely going to need all my monster hands to hold up or I'll be BUSTO'd pronto(at least my PP account anyways).
