+EV.....-$$$

One of those days, man I hate em though. Played my ass off this morning at 6max, and just couldn't get it right. I didn't play well, and was only slightly +EV after several hundred hands, so that loss I didn't mind, cuz I didn't deserve any bank.

Since I wasn't in the zone for 6max, I figured it'd be simple enough to pull my act together, screw down tightlike and 12 table it. And it was, I got Sklansky bucks at 28bb/100, however one big fly in the ointment here. I lost for the session, yeah I got pwned by some serious bad beats.


Good play, bad results... oh well that's what this game's about. Gotta remind yourself that when you have one of these days. I can't imagine what it's like to run this bad for a month or more, probably able to drive men insane.

Ha ha, wow, the whole reason this post started is that I took a break for a bit. Came back focused and ready to continue on doing what I was doing. I then realized why am I still sitting at .01/.02? And opened up 9 .02/.05 tables. It'd been awhile and the stakes actually seemed big! HA what a joke that is. I used to play $2/$4 NL and didn't think that was anything, now .02/.05 is big!!! Anyway, wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong, being too passive, afraid of the bet sizes, because results = not good. It sure felt like I was letting people run me over too much, but I got the news. I wasn't playing great, 8.78bb/100 EV, but I actually made 0.54bb/100!!! Go ME! Running sick cold today, MLB2k8 it is. Here's the EV graph of so far today, .01/.02 and .02/.05 statistics combined.






























So this is today's PT info so far. As you can see, I played limited amounts of 6max and .02/.05. The latter I felt like I was getting run over so I decided to quit and possibly go back down to .01/.02, but instead I'm just going to take a short break here, then jump back on the .02/.05 tables in a bit. I'm doing fine, just not winning. An interesting side note, I made more EVbb/100 at the .01/.02 than I did at .02/.05 today, so in reality I should still definitely play the .01/.02. I had an EV of 27.5bb/100 which = $1.10/100 hands, while only $0.878/100 at .02/.05. Perhaps I'll stay at .01/.02 a bit longer.....
