Wow That is insanely brutal.

Shortstack bloodbath tonight. I was up about $100 at 1/2 when this 45 minutes of ass raping happened, especially the last couple of minutes before I closed down the tables. 3-tabling:

[21:17] <emmasdad> J9 < 98 i got sucked out on
[21:17] <emmasdad>
[21:40] <emmasdad> ARG
[21:40] <emmasdad> same bitch sucked out again AT < T(
[21:40] <emmasdad> T9\
[21:42] <emmasdad> it is ok when i suck out, but when others suck out that means they are terrible and should not be allowed to live/breed
[21:43] <Trump34> isn't that a little harsh?
[21:43] <Neilis> i think it's the right line to take really
[21:44] <Trump34> well alrighty then
[21:44] <emmasdad> maybe harsh, but sometimes tough love is required
[21:44] <Trump34> troof
[21:46] <emmasdad> and QQ < A7
[21:46] <emmasdad> ugh
[21:46] <emmasdad> the swings are pretty bad short stacking
[21:47] <Neilis> I'm tempted to try shortstacking because i run so bad lately.. but then i figure.. if i can't win an allin as a 65% favourite, how is shortstackign going to work for me?
[21:48] <emmasdad> you should win asa 65% favorite about 65% of the time
[21:50] <emmasdad> and AKs < KK
[21:50] <emmasdad> getting expensive
[21:51] <Trump34> i'm up on the day...but not by much
[21:51] <emmasdad> i'm down again
[21:51] <emmasdad> alot
[21:51] <emmasdad> lost what 5 straight now
[21:51] <Trump34> 200+
[21:52] <emmasdad> 200+blinds/topping up
[21:52] <emmasdad> still not to my low of the day

[22:02] <emmasdad> every one of them
[22:03] <Trump34> that blows goats

I have been back to whoring, and it definitely isn't as fun as the small buy-in MTTs I had been playing. It feels like a grind. The clearance rates that we used to think sucked (like full tilt's 16.67pts/$1) are now considered good. I haven't been back to short stacking after that bloodbath 5 days ago. Instead, I redeposited onto CommiePoker to finish the $600 bonus. I am now 1/4 through it and 4-6 tabling 2/4 and 3/6 LHE, adding 1/2 tables if necessary to play more tables. I am up about $700 since redepositing, mostly at 3/6. I really think the 3/6 tables are softer than the 1/2 tables. I suspect that there are a lot of whores at 1/2 since there are decent bonuses on the network, so it might be time to trade out 1/2 LHE tables for 100 NL.

Up about $500 yesterday, mostly from short stacking 1/2. I also made a hundred or so at 3/6 LHE, and cleared another $30 in bonus. I gave up altogether on LHE < 3/6, since it is probably whore infested and the money doesn't interest me too much. About 30% done with the $600 bonus now, and if I continue winning at this rate, I should cash out 4k+ in profit. Go me.
