rick's assault on multipoker 10,000+

[rickjr82]

slow progress on the bonus...but the pokers been great! I kind of like these rockish 25nl tables. I just keep raising and they just keep folding. my wsf% is between 45-55% most days I've been raising much more also and have gotton to the point of any playable in the last 2 positions. That along with some big laydowns has been very profitable the last couple days. PLO has been good to me but i still have some big leaks that i am working on. I'm also trying to be more aggressive preflop whenever i have position.

today is move up day!!! well im not that excited but it needs to happen. There is no way to clear the bonus at the 25nl tables, even with plo there are no tables availible. It is very possible to make money at 25nl there but in terms of playing there vs 50nl tables everything that ive heard says thats theres no difference between the two so i think my potential is easily doubled.

for anyone who might be concerned that i'm not ready and that i am forcing a move don't worry I have over 50,000 hands at 25nl and have won at 8 ptbbs so i was probably due for a move up anyway.

wow 2 outer after 15 minutes of playing makes me want to move back down. I've got to get used to the big pots

[rickjr82]

so far the plan is going ok as the raked hands are starting to clear now. not a good run of cards at all today as i hit a total of 1 set in 600 hands. And as shown before i lost a stack with it.

I think i have been some of my best poker at the 50nl as the money makes me. I have been folding Axs, AQo and low suited connectors in early posistion and anytime i open the pot it is with a raise. Once i adjust more i will open up but currently my vpip is 13 with a pfr% of 7. this also has to do with how tight the tables are so i probably need to loosen up more preflop but keep raising. My aggression is also at an all time high as my flop aggression is 13.5 and i have not called a bet on the turn. The only bad part is i have not bet or raised on the river yet but that is just because of the poor cards i have gotton coupled with my aggression.

Overall the happiest I have been with my play despite losing $40 luckily PLO stepped up as I picked up 2 buy ins in my single table.

starting to get worried about this bonus. just about halfway but only 6 days left. monday through thursday is going to be crucial. I might try to email support for some mercy. At least im making money and rakeback. I still need to do the empire and eurobet bonuses also so i really need to step up and get some hands done. Also have a new party bonus lots of poker so hopefully it works out.

man, you got to get working on that bonus quick or its gone. Unless you can put in at least 8 hours a day 4 tabling, you can't make it.

[rickjr82]

im going to split this day into 2 parts...

1) well got my first five hours of the day cleared and I'm up $200 been kicking names and taking ass...good cards and good plays as well as 700 hands out of the way. Wait i've got a call...bad day honey I'll be over in a little...

see one of my friends who is a very good live player offer him some money to clear some raked hands for me so i can take a break... sounds like a good idea and i get to have some 'other' fun. Ok ready to play cards again, had a great day up $250 and should have some decent hands cleared. Wait I have a missed call.

54 hours
~6700 raked hands

2) First words out of his mouth...man i hate internet poker. I got killed on two 50nl tables and tried to make it back by playing some 3-6. (<--only thing i'm pissed about). I told him it was fine and it was cool he tried to help. still impressive down 225 in 400 raked hands.

Check my account and I'm back where I started earlier today minus a couple bucks. I four table for a little and end up 6 bucks and I can't really focus.

so I messed up moral of the story think with the right head and don't let other people play with your money.

i might call the multipoker quits and finish my 200 hands for empires $100 and move to eurobet.


and brian I learned my lesson.

[briachek]

i think we are both learning our lesson this month.

[rickjr82]

well i gave up the multipoker bonus not enough time and too much tight play. Now this journal turns into a life of rick because I like keeping track of my days. Idecided to clear my "new sign up" party bonus. Man i miss the old party tables rake at almost 75% and the players are horrible. Got called all in twice by shortstacks with a2 after a preflop reraise.

Man i love party poker. I might skip my eurobet bonus just so I can spend all my time on the site. I think the rake is the same but because all the whores are missing the pots are bigger.
