Posted by mattel: B1gfoot ur right - thats what i meant- do you use software (tracker sharkscope etc) and do u make notes and see the same people all the time at ur levels?
I do use some software but not that often anymore as before. If U only intend to play against someone how his stats are, then ur not following ur instinct anymore.
I see alot of the same people at my levels. some people i play em everyday. I have notes, tags and buddylists.
Liv ftw
That quote should be dipped in gold. No... PLATINUM! How long have you been grinding away on-line, Flangel

online = 4-5 Years I think But I used to play more Live 1000NL 5/5 Blinds

------------ WHAT a day. Its a very pain in the arse to beat the 2-4NL players . They rarely fold, nor raise, but always limp-call. go crazy on one pair or follow the turn with 0 value postflop
after 1 day of playin at 10BET for the challenge, i am up.... 1€ its tough, but I get there .

What a daysession
I played some omaha on my normal limits again but got outplayed all night. some funny s**t going on against very LAGS. Either they were folding rarely or they were folding even less than rare. Very hard to make some decent cash tonite due to the turn and river that raped me a bit. Loss : 390$. Its still ok, not that much more ups and downs but I wasnt able to crack the spaztics tonite

Tomorrow I play the first qualifier for the Belgian Championship that is held in our Casino IN namen. This qualifier has place online, if I dont make it, I have a couple other ones, if not, I pay the Buy in in full at Namen 1700€.
Lets see how that goes.
As for the 10Bet challenge, after 2 sessions, I only ran up 1.5€ Its harder and tougher than i tought, but with 10€ u have no room for mistakes or gamble.
Slowly but lets hope...

Posted by doomdy: ''The Dom'' was busy last couple off days gettin fit for the new season So basicly sporting everyday so littl tired, didnt poker so much either
------------ Btw...
Imo its better to start Holdem and not omaha with that littl bankroll, ur playin omaha right? Omaha has lots more swings so...
I play NLHE at this stage i can't handle a swing to built this challenge atm. It's already tough enough this way

I didnt knew U played it for compo
I played tennis for 18 years ( since I was 2) but I had to stop playing it semi Pro a while back. Sad tho After VTV and brabant and belgium selection on my 12th Bday, I trained 14 hours a week + 2 hours condition and coordination training minimum. I really regret I can't play tennis anymore.

Yea I have a knee problem and an ankle overloaded To clarify : forgive me admin this must be said in dutch, :s coz I dont know the english translation for the injuries for it :
Enkeloverbelasting, kniecap verschoven en ook tennniselleboog uiteindelijk.
So basicly, I had alot of s**t to deal with at the end, and I was illadviced to quit, or I would be ending in a wheelchair on my 30th bday. I played national, also in france and trained in florida a couple times. Ive invested most of my time when i was 'young' or lets say bewteen 12 and 19 in tennis.

Yea but his attidude, that was his problem. thats why he never really shined like a real star imo. and according to Bollitieri : same opinion.
Yea heart issue : not so long ago I went to the hospital. I had some troubles with pressure and blood running. I took some betablockers, and also I am taking daily aspirines to thin my blood.
Its shud be all better now, but not 100% sure yet whats gonna happen. Doctors were surprised to see my files what I actually already had from the passed or what injuries I had. Funny, but yet again not so funny after all.
Heart issue really scared the s**t out of me, coz my nephew died at age 27 when he was on his honeymoon, due to a heart attack... just nearly married...

Thats hard being 26
No s**t I had a lot of things and dissapointments in the passed. No tennis, sports, being headchef. all down the drain. It was quite mental last years. Coz everything I ever did or worked on I cant fullfill anymore. Luckily poker gave me some other exit at the moment.
How long have you been grinding away on-line, Flangel
