well not a good day today, i played a $6.50 2 table turbo, a $6.50 45 man turbo and a $3.5 2 table turbo, and did nothing in any of them!!
so having just flushed $17 down the pan, what did i do???? my roll now down to say $45 ish...
thats right like a prize donkey i decide to have a big gamble to see if i can get some back!!
i put $25 on a cash table, and after chasing my str8 draw was soon down to $16!!
then the hand that cleaned me out
i limp as do about 4 others
i have 8J
flop is 8,9,10 no flush draws
i check
first guy bets $1
next guy raises to $2.50
i decide that my pair and open str8 draw is good for a push so i reraise all in for my last $12 ish
1st guy folds the reraiser thinks...... before calling with AA!!!
so any 7,8,J or Q, 13 outs
turn and river no help and i just did $25!!!
roll now down to $18 ish!!!
what was i thinking!!!!!!!!!
i have joined pokerhandorg and lets see if i can post a hand to test
http://www.pokerhand.org/?1080964
think gonna need some help with this pokerhand thing?? i can see that this one works, but how do u get some text to come up that u click to go to the pokerhandorg?? like on 20K's blog??
ok now i said stats at beginning, seeing as not a good day thought check out my stats on stars :
Hold'em (Real Money):688 hands played and saw flop:
- 55 times out of 109 while in small blind (50%)
- 70 times out of 107 while in big blind (65%)
- 140 times out of 472 in other positions (29%)
- a total of 265 times out of 688 (38%)
Pots won at showdown - 28 out of 76 (36%)
Pots won without showdown - 121
so overall seeing 38% of flops maybe a little high, think see to many from the blinds as it cheap or maybe call a small raise to try get lucky
29% from other positions not too bad
only 36% won at showdown, this looks like my downfall, seeing too many hands to showdown where it seems i am beat and should have folded earlier!! ??
so overall i won 149 hands out of 265 flops seen, thats 56%... not too bad??
so if i had folded more of those losing hands instead of going to showdown maybe thats where i can improve my game and not lose so much money??
any other thoughts people??
i can also get my stats for last 5 tournys:

the pokerhand you posted works fine.
Maybe look closer at your bankroll management tho ;-)
GL bud.
Have you read any poker books? Harrington/ Sklansky? You'll find your game will come on alot if you do. Probably a wiser way to invest the last $18 dollars of your bank roll than donking it away in turbo sng's.
Best of luck

good comment from anon - i found my understanding of tournies improved a lot after reading Harrington's books and then its all about playing as much a spossible because theres nothing like practise to improve your game
gl mate
When you write your text, highlight it and click the symbol on the editor that looks like a globe with a chain link on it. In the pop-up that appears put your pokerhand link and click ok. You should now have a text link that when you click takes you to the link you've just entered.
Hi PokeKing69,
I returned the favor.
Cheers,
