doesnt make me feel better

Dark green is what I actually won, light green is expected value of all in equity. so basically it shows i started off runnin real bad, being down 47k when i could have been up 7k if normal luck.

And no my christmas didnt suck it was really good. I lost the 50k before breakfast even and nobody ever has a clue if I'm up or down b/c it doesn't affect my mood at all. I realized I have pretty much completely mastered poker not being any impact on my life other than when I sit down to actually play.


2tone-
Ya it's all vs one person HU. We played 4 tables of 25/50. I had 60k at one table, it could have been more but we kept having to switch because he didnt have enough online so we'd start fresh tables. I had all my $ online spread across the 4 tables at one point, but obv we were very deep. Often 40k deep each on 1 or 2 tables at a time so it was a fun match.

And ya I don't have stop loss limits, I never have. If I have an edge I'll keep playing. Obviously if I'm down to like 50k I don't want to be playing 25/50 anymore and I might stop but if I really think I have an edge I still prob wouldn't. If I didn't have $ in the bank and stuff I would be way more careful. I got his account down to 30k before he quit, hopefully he can win more vs other people and he plays me again.

I don't mean to threadjack JD, but this is awesome and my goal for 2009.

This is beyond awesome and I may make this my goal for 2009 as well.

Example - convo with finacee a few minutes ago:

Her: "Are you playing poker?"
Me: "Yeah."
Her: "Are you losing?"
Me: "No. Why?"
Her: "I can just tell by your voice and how you talk to me."

At the time, I was up about 3 Buy Ins, but has just lost 2 more to some annoying 2 outer.

I don't know that the beats and bad luck affect my PLAY (much, anyway), but if she can hear it in my voice, it's obviously having more of an effect than I thought.

BTW - nice Christmas!
