Better pray that the Dr doesn't read through the last couple days here

Nice the swap weighed you in, but unlucky on your own FT mate.

Patrick is from the north east though is he not? They don't do many silver spoons up there. Patrick went straight from the pits to gold spoons.

At the expense of sounding ungrateful, whilst today had profit at the tables it was really a nothing day. I was very tired after Sunday session so didnt play a big amount of volume and procrastinated, napped and just let the day die away a little. Feel good now.

Going to make November a huge month. Massive volume and really try and crush it. Its a make it or break it month in terms of being able to produce volume. Im going to work on some form of time management time table and give it a really big go.

The elusive daily graph is back by popular demand!!

Will do a month wrap up before November grind starts. Lots of freebies going to be given away, especially with the launch of my new website which comes out next week. Its going to be really fun and promoting no website and no adverts, all paid for by myself to give free content to the poker community

- A monthly blog-summary from me
- Free strategy articles as content
- Free video content
- Regular podcasts with the biggest names in poker. Neverscaredb, Krantz, Timex all already done
- Regular weekly interviews with poker players from all around the world. Finding out about the man behind the screen name

Should be really fun and I cant wait to get it up and ready.

on another forum they enquired more about this A5 hand so I thought why not..

Plz can you explain your actions in that A5 hand? One timeee

Sure bro. So villain 1 was a fish, villain 2 was a good regular and villain 3 was an unknown.

Villain 1s range is extremely wide
Villain 2 usually iso raises to 18, so I figured he didnt have a strong range
Villain 3 is likely a weak player and has a hand that will fold a lot to the 3bet.

On the flop I bet to get equity shares to fold and just dont want him to float. I figured that he likely has a medium sized pocket pair on the turn or a flush draw and his only continuing range this deep would be sets, which are discounted perhaps because of 1) Pre, 2) Speed of flop call (fast calls usually mean weakness) and 3) The fact he didnt raise flop on a fd board deep. When he ships, I obviously have to call.

Sick thing is, is that he has the no showdown thing on, so when he goes all in he doesnt show his cards unless he wins at showdown. Q was awful and I was giving my dog that look of if you bark Im going to shout real loud. She knew and carried on chewing her bone whilst the pot still hadnt shipped to him, one second later which felt like an eternity and I see "Muck" and Im like wtfwtfwtfwtfwtf, and message my boys on skype haha..

I'm looking forward to hearing when you have an immense day, when u ship 10k, eat steak 3 times in one day and still get 14 hours kip, that sort of stuff  

[pleno1]

Some hands..


Hands 1 Facing 2x pot river shove deep, eek.

Villain is unknown. Pre flop is standard from me, when he 4bets, its a pretty easy call. Flop isnt great, but OI folding. Turn is nice when he checks back. On the river he represents real thing. KK,JJ,99 definitely bets the turn. All his flush draw combos barrel the turn, having the blocks a bunch of them too, its basically only Axdd that is going to potentially pile like this and 1) I dont think he would do so and 2) He would barrel the turn with no showdown to get me to fold my probably not great hand. He chatted afterwards that he thought id fold "that"

Also hes more likely to flat his suited aces and 4bet his ax off suit so has a bunch of Ax blockers.
