Blah...

The weekend started off real good. I made my $50 deposit bonus and broke the $300 bankroll mark. Not bad for starting with only $50 a couple of weeks ago. The last 3 or 4 sessions I wasn't able to put much together. I just broke even. Blah. Anyway, it's part of the game and eventually I will be on the upside of things again. Better than losing I guess. Time to go blow some stuff up on Battlefield Bad Company to make me feel better.

I'm going to try to post one more time, for some reason it keeps not showing my post. Anyway, basically what I said was I'm doing poorly in 10 NL at the moment, so I decided to take a step back and go to 5NL on PS. I have consistently beat that game, not by a lot but I'm in the green. Last night I played two sessions and ended up just over $10 (2 buy-ins). Not to bad, I think I'm going to stick with this limit till I build up my bankroll, even though it's slower I think it's a good idea. Has anyone purchased Ace HUD? I really think having this information on the tables would really help me along with a registered poker tracker.

Two things quick, not sure if permissions are messed up but I can't create a new blog just post comments to yours.

Second, I found a poker bot that has a free trial. It appears it does decent or at least holding it's own, good to make bonus's on other sites. Not going to try it yet, but if anyone is currious check it out, they say it doesn't install programs as well.

This site will give you all the info you need, it's got a cool blackjack adviser as well which tells you what to do in each situation.

blah hit some rough spots today..only up $1.24...but I was down the whole session till the end so I guess I should be greatful. I had someone just bully me like crazy when I was missing the flop, he got me so off my game I was folding top pair, then he had a showdown later he had A7o for a pair, I think I was giving him to much credit but couldn't get a good enough hand to take him down, but then got a decent amount back when I had AA and flopped a set =) Also, hit my first straight flush today, value betted on the river but he folded.

Good job building your roll man. That's 12 buy-ins at $25NL, enough to take a shot. If you go for it my suggestion would be, two table and if things go sour (2 buy-ins down max) drop back down. I wouldn't tackle 25NL full steam until you have at minimun 15 but recommend 20 buy-ins.

3-4 sessions is nothing in the scheme of things, but yes breaking even after rake is never a bad thing!

Hey Kev,

Long time! Hope everything is going well and glad to see your playing again.

In response to the bots, I have too much at stake to mess with those.
Hey, nothing wrong with taking step back either. Having the max buyin is the way to go,just move back up once you build up a little more.

Hey, nice to see you as well, yeah I know you have lots at stake. I think the idea with the bot is using someone else to sign up and deposit max amount to receive a return bonus, the bot keeps you at the same area, and you get the return from the bonus. Nothing I'm going to look into atm, but I know Chris mentioned something about it once and I saw it, so thought I would post the info.

Yeah I am getting hooked on playing, my problem is I get a headache from being on a computer to much and I still play, then I start making bad moves, once I watch a video though I seem to get back to how I need to play. Well hopefully I post some stuff tomorrow night.

Speaking of videos, got a treat for you all! Made one last night, two tabling .10NL. I'm at work and it's been rendering since 7am but should be done soon. Let me know where I can upload it (not sure of the size until done).

I would try youtube.com and see if that works. Can't wait to see it!
