Indiana State Poker Championship at Hollywood Casino

Good morning Ohio! Its going to be a hot one in the Indiana/Ohio/Kentucky region today, so stay inside and crank up the AC while you pray for zero power outages! I don't know if any of my loyal readers are going to end up playing in the Indiana State Poker Championship but I will be there! Unfortunately due to some medical bills stemming from a bull riding accident and my current student loans I will only be playing the $350 + $45 No Limit Hold'em (Deep Stack)(250KGuaranteed)(Re-Entry) and more then likely one of those pesky satellite tournaments for a main event seat. The winner of the ISPC main event will also receive a ticket to the WPT at Hollywood Casino! I'm very much looking forward to the action and will be tweeting none stop when time allows for it. I don't know what the rules on using cell phones will be (as they vary from event to event) but I hope I can keep everyone updated on the action in the Cincinnati Tri-State area. The event will be running all week from August 11-21. The full schedule may be found at Indiana State Poker Championship Schedule

Top five ways to lose money playing poker!

So you play a little poker after dinner while you wife watches reruns of Everybody Love Raymond? Why not try to improve your game by a little study. So here are a few tips to get you started with another great top five list. Yah I know a top five list is unusual, hell I could give you 100 to save you money in poker but Im giving you five key tips.

Top Five ways to lose money at poker:

10. Don't chase every hand to the river. The excitement of a big card landing is fun but in the end will be a losing strategy
9.Don't play while your drunk, tired, hungover, or doing something else like work.
8. You can't ever tilt. This is a sure way to drain that 50 dollar bank roll from the credit card your wife doesn't know about. Your deep in a game and you get busted down to half your stack on a bad beat. You have to remember you could double back up with a bit of timing and patient. Get back into the game and forget the hand!
7. Playing to many hands will most defiantly make you a losing poker player. Tighten up a bit and you will improve significantly. Don't play two random cards because you have a hunch and you feel it. Instead wait for good cards for good positions and play those!
6. If you don't play position poker you will get caught raising hands you shouldn't be raising with from early position. So you have TJ and your under the gun. Don't be the player that raises such a mediocre hand from that position. There is a very good chance someone will re-raise you and temp you into the pot. Just fold here and wait for a better position to play the hand.
5. You can never ever play poker with the mind set that you will win it back. If its gone its gone. If your depositing every week because you have extra money and this is fun for you fine. However if your digging your credit card into a hole then stop depositing your just giving better players your money! Save yours and work on your poker skills in stead of believing poker is a true luck game.


Good luck guys! I hope this short list is a gem and will get you on the right direction while playing poker! See you on the felt! Oh and maybe I wont be taking your money if you listen to a few of these tips ;)

My poker name

Just to explain my name...POTHEADWOMAN

I started reading all of these poker books and some of them kept talking about online table image. I thought that a pot smoking woman would be taken less seriously them a guy named Mr.Lawgrad or IdontdrinkwhenIplay. I don't know if it changes anyone's perception of me at a table in a negative or positive way but I have always convinced myself that if variables are to change I want to be the one manipulating them. Another way I do this is by jabbering crazy things in the chat box frequently. Even while playing with 2 or 3 tables.

Anyways just a random "tool" I picked up from a book that may do nothing lol.

If I ever change my name to another site it will be screamingfemininetiltbaby

My Adventure

Okay my adventures are not glorious..except this one time with a paintball grenade. However let me explain myself. I am a 25 yr old college male from Cincinnati Ohio. I drink but do not smoke pot. I started playing online poker for real money just on a whim because I was bored. I have been playing for about three months now. At first I deposited 20 dollars here and there with ups and downs like any new idiot player. I then discovered a little program called calculatem pro and a few used books that help me establish an ABC type game. So at that point the deposits lasted longer. Finally I found cards chat, moshman, and PT3. I am now a winning poker player with over 500 games logged on bodog.

This month I have played over 100 3.30 10 handed sit n gos with....tada an ROI of 37.94. Overall I am running a 5% ROI. My current April ITM is 44.44. I have had swings and such like everyone else but I am beginning to feel I have got to a point where I will be producing more then I am consuming financial in the online world of texas holdem. FYI.. February was a positive month where I took 20 and turned it into 100. March was a low positive ROI. April has been a huge boost to my confidence. I will continue to study hard. I will continue to poop and read moshman. I will continue to find every edge possible in this game until some jackass named isildur(LOTR rip..how unoriginal) becomes some stupid asshole named isildur.

I digress..

Currently the world of bodog is becoming to short sighted of my goals. I plan on moving to fulltilt or pokerstars in the next month or two in order to expand my multitabling and to play a larger pool of fish. Not to mention they have a whole different sng structure that I plan on trying out.

Any suggestions on a site? I need rakeback. It will increase my ROI dramatically. From what I understand fulltilt can be rakedback at 27% or so. So if Im paying .30 per game with 500 games logged that equals out to 40.5 dollars. Which is a huge bankroll boost to my 300 dollar account.

Current goals:

Continue the transition from 3.30 10 man to 6.60 10 man
Master 6.60 10 man and move to fulltilt
Increase from 2 table max to 4 table max
Work on more practice sessions with SNgWHIZ
Review CChat HH and post more HH.

Maybes: Find a coach or get coached for free ???
Stop being full of myself
Stop yelling in the chatbox when my KK loses to A2
Purchase a better computer(more tables better database speed)

Ifs:
Quit my job
Become good enough to coach
provide useful advice to new players


Hope you enjoyed my random post

If anyone wants to come party it up in the Nati just hit me up and we can drink play poker, bar hop, disc golf, paintball( ex pro) street hockey, shag some fly balls, double team..cough..ice cream...cough.. or help me cheer for the reds!! Peace out my gangstas

FYI I didn't bother to read through this twice..so just go to hell if you cant figure it out!

Sharkscope ROI

Well this is what sharkscope has on me! A 6% ROI! However you have to keep in mind my friend has hacked my account and has been playing a ton of games on here as well as draining my account. MOST of those games other then the 3.30 sng are from him. As you can see my bolt 3.30 SNG turbo is a 10% ROI. If you have any questions about my skill please dont be afraid to write me and ask questions!!! I am also willing to coach people as well!

How to Steal Blinds From a Winning Poker Player

Okay Im playing against a winning player with 10% ROI over 2000+ matchs of 10 handed 3 dolla sng.

He is a tight aggressive player obviously

The question I have is...how can I take advantage of a guy who steals 8% of the time and so far has folded 12/12 steals. I assume his range is calling only 10% or so. should I just hammer wide with the steals on him and fold most of his reraises? Surprisingly though he might be tight passive because he only has a AFq of 17. What should I do??

Well here is what I should do! I should steal steal steal! This guy preys on bad players! His style is tight but passive. He only gets aggressive when he has a premium hand or when his number if blinds will diminish his chances of placing in the money(ie 100 bb or less) So I can easily  steal from him with just about anything. A guy like this is probably also multi tabling so he will be paying less attention to each player at every table he is at. So guys just steal wide on this guy and when he comes back at you fold unless you have a premium hand AQ, JJ+.

Its to nice to play!

So here we are in the middle of summer and its about 100*f outside with the index. Its far to nice during the summer to be playing 40 sngs a day. So I will be back here posting like a maniac once the weather cools down. Im also not playing because one of my best friends took advantage of me and drained ALL of the money in my account! Thank god I had recently withdrawn money or else you would see me on the 12 o clock news as a murder suspect.
