running better

i put in some hands on nl100 and things are running ok. i got back 6 stacks and lost 4 today again so i am a little bit up @ nl100 right now. i had some crazy hands against a 80/60/5 guy today. first i lost AA against his flushdraw which he instapushed on the flop and the very next hand i had JJ on a 668 flop in a 4 betpot (he always minraised my openraises) and he showed up with 69o (needless to say that he instapushed on the flop). but i got some money back..

villain makes hero calls..

i feel confident again and that's what makes me feel good about putting in more hands. unfortunately there are two exams next week and i won't have too much time left for poker.

another 3 stacks down...

im down 3 stacks in 800 hands @ NL100. dont wanna talk about it...

back to NL100...

i have just played 2 tables of nl200 losing around 300 dollars. i will step back to nl100 to get back some money and win back confidence. it seems like i cannot win a single pot and i think i'm tilting a little bit. i am not throwing around my headset (like i did in the past) or things like that but i'm playing suboptimal in some spots.

given bbs timing i think i should have folded. i raised titiss minraises quite often but bb shows a lot of strength, given the fact that he nearly insta 4bets me..

villain 26/17/2
he has been folding to my rr quite often and i thought that his minraise was a bluff and called in order to bluff on later streets. i picked up a flushdraw and decided to get it in after he checked to me on the turn. i could have checked behind but i wanted to bluff and i thought it's better to get it in with some equity if he really has a good hand. i feel like my play is spewy without any better read. my assumption was purely based on table dynamics and i am not sure if villain has a checkminraisebluff in his arsenal. however, i like the rr preflop since he started calling very light even out of position.

12 buyins

seems like i am losing in every part of my life right now...
i know it's just variance but it hurts nevertheless. actually i will take some time off from poker now to get a fresh mindset. if things run well the next few sessions i can stay at 200 but i fear i have to step back to 100 because my bankroll isn't sufficient for my current limit without the 2.5k battlefield owes me...

7 buyins

i am around 7 buyins down in my last two sessions. i don't have all handhistories in my database because handgrabber for pacific is bs... software tilted me and right now i am not sure if i just played bad or if things just didn't go my way. i couldn't win a single big pot, so i am not too concerned about me playing too bad. i don't really know if i should go back to NL100 because i don't know if i will ever get my money back from battlefield (2.5k). i think i will put in some more hands tomorrow because i think i can concentrate on the game right now and after some weeks of confusion i now know what i want - and what i don't.

looking forward to playing wii at danniel's next week :)

i could split the files into two databases for 07 and 08, so here are the overall stats for march 08:
