I first posted this in off topic but thinks its better suited here so hence the copied post,,,,,,,,,,,,Well, lets see where to begin,,hmm,, I play mostly on V.C and i run into one player quite often ( a viking) usually on the $10 or $20 stgs,, when i do i feel confident of beating him but my stats say im loosing to him,,,call me stupid but ive found out why due to him letting slip some info at the table,, during a game he saaid i prefer playing u at the weekends Arctic ,,,hmm i thought well thats fine with me , I had just taken a big pot off him,,, anyway this remark puzzled me so using my free searches on scope I checked my stats graphs for play by week day,,,,wow!!!! ,,,, from a plus 50 roi on a friday i was minus 50 on a saturday now thats some turn arround,,, so to get to the point weekends i have a few tins sometimes to many obviously,, and 1 and 1 making 2 its the alcohol making me loose ,, on checking i find i play much looser and more aggressive poker hence loosing,,,,,,so the point is dont drink and play,, obvious u say ,, well ok it is,, but to those fish out there beware,,,and to those alkies take care,,,,,lol,,,,,,,,anyway from now on ,, beware of corsair on a saturday, specialy u viking ( u know who u are) ,,, Also i didn;t really care for using sharkscope but after in depth reviews I was surprised how well it showed my play and others!!! so have a look those who have not and for those who use it now i know why,,,,am on ta ya,,,,,,,,, ArcticCorsair

I could not agree more. Ive noticed this relation in live games when i was younger and therefore only played for drinks never for money while drinking. I can even say that online poker improved my life by leaving less time for drinking. If only i could give up smokes.

You played a few $50 sngs, thats high stakes lol. I just play low stakes even though I have the bankroll to move up..I don't want to lose the money I worked hard on lol. You can check mine, Mr_Gene_Yuss on pokerstars.

Yeah bud I had a spy at yer stats on scope ,, impressive ,, u seem to be consistant and in profit good roi,,, like I said my game is more suited to tournaments but Im comfortable taking a seat in stgs usually,,,as for the $50 games I think u will find that I lost most of them , lol,, probs when i was pissed,,,very rarely go there, but I must admit I like those higher stake games, well higher for me for some that would be peenuts. I prefer the 20-30 stgs if I am in the mood for stgs that is, but I always start a session with low limit games < I dont mind playing 1 or 2 dollar games if my roll is low even though I find them harder to win than 5 10 stgs sometimes for the simple reason that u just dont know what some of the donkeys are going to push with or call with,,,,,,,,like I said in anothere post I make 1 deposit a month of 100$ and I have only had to deposit once in the last 3 months,, when I win I withdraw and never touch withdrew money if i go broke i go broke and play freerolls and 1-2 stgs till the end of the month when i will deposit a 100,,,,,anyway nice stats on scope ,, gl

Thanks ArcticCorsair, I try to be consistent And I have a higher ROI in the $5 games than the $1 games lol..I can predict what they have in $5 more often. I haven't made a deposit yet. I just play with free bankrolls and sold my play chips lol. Can't believe people buy play chips.

Actually a lot of people like to buy play chips. I made about $100 on play chips. You get something like $10 for million in Pokerstars. I have 4.5mill in party poker, I think Ill only get $2 or so for that.
