Going well... 🙄 2nd ticket is on the verge of getting changed in to real cash I think as that's what happens when you hit less than 50% of the original ticket if I'm right. Close... very close lol. Tough call... royal flush alert 😎 (He showed A9o with 9d) Think I have to nit my game up, too many nits around who never show me bluffs even when they should. Every time I bluff catch I tilt my tits off as they always show the nuts and nothing less. Think one day I lost 3 stacks with a K high flush to a A high flush. Bit down on 888 as well just too random games at times, prob same thing that I have to play a bit tighter post flop in some spots but overall it's always the issue of too many multiway pots, even times when you 3b or 4b and then you see a Axx flop with KK 4 way and stuff like that. Or AK on 789tt and meh, hating life just by looking at it 😂 whilst the pot it bigger than my stack 😂 and then you sigh fold and you see some ridiculous hands getting jammed and called. Not the first time I folded the best hand either lol. Not too happy with the way I've been playing lately... need more focus. And fold more vs reg nits.

The space one is pretty neat, used it and it's as easy on the eyes as the plain ones. That's the problem imo with backgrounds, they are often too cluttery making it harder to see the action and cards etc. Especially if you play multiple tables. Maybe nice for one tabling on a mobile or something but that's about it. Didn't know you could add your own ones... might add some pussy as a background 🐱 😂

Sadly enough I had to say goodbye to my almost 16y old 4 legged friend last night, his time had come and pretty sure we had the timing right. He's been an amazing dog and although I've 'only' known him for 9 years (being my gf's dog), he's been the best friend I've ever had. I overly enjoyed the time we had together and all the places we've been to. He was as good as they come, only regret is I can't rewind time and do it all over again 😭 🐶 ❤️ (my wee boy is the one without the antlers 😉) Obviously have a broken heart right now and I've never cried so much in my life but I can only be happy with the life he has had and if every living being on this planet could have the same life as him, our Planet Earth would be a better place. @KrustyTheClown As for poker, with the slightly challenging times of the past month, mostly lack of sleep, poker has been on a low volume. I dropped 2 buy-ins on both €250 tickets atm, wouldn't say I had the best run yet so far but hey ho. €14.85 in the cash bankroll now with clearing my €25 playthrough. The funny number is just the exchange rate as my account is in £. Played a bit more on 888poker, just the 25 zoom variant which is just handier if I just have 15min or whatever, or even at work at times when my machine is running 😆. Total deposit was $415 and bankroll is now $780 where $40 came from clearing the deposit bonus so far and maybe another $20 from their hand of the day bonus, first time I won it I got $10 funny enough, which was a big one to start with as mostly it is just $0.5 so far, apart from a $5 few days ago. I'm off work till Monday for obvious reasons and will probably play a bit more poker again. Feel kind of lost today so hopefully I can find some things to keep my mind occupied with.

I'm sure it now shows how many hours are left coming close to the end, like less than 4h left etc. Before it just said less than a day left which wasn't very informative. Also these RAKE, GET bonuses are exact 2 weeks so if you can keep an eye on when you started it you know when it will end. (and then miss the deadline by a couple of % but that's another matter 😅)

Hard to really know he has you beat, what if he turned over AK. You can't just be too result orientated because he had AA. If he turned over AK and you JJ... the shortstacker would have had AA 🤣

Pretty hard to run up a 1 buy in ticket imo as you are kind of hoping to get off with a good start so you are doing well. That's the reason I bought 10 buy-in tickets for 25NL as I don't want to play this weird game with one buy in where it almost feel like you are playing a tournament lol. JJ hand can be close depending on perception of the reg and the rec. Also the stack depths to start with. JJ is dodgy with a tighter reg behind but the rec putting more dead money in the pot might make this more of a jam than you think. Not sure about calling vs jamming. Calling looks strong and again I can't really make out the stack sizes but what if other villain just calls and an A, K or Q comes up on the flop, pretty crap with JJ and you can't really fold anymore. Think I prefer a jam as puts his non pair hands in a tough spot like AK. Could call when you have AA yourself I guess. Probably overthinking this spot though 😆

Started playing on 888poker again, I did play a bit with the free money they gave me for signing up before but went busto as was just not enough money and I just donked around a bit trying to see what the site was like. Have deposited $400 as they match this amount which I need to clear by playing. Might not get the whole lot but we will see. Playing mostly 25NL snap which is their version of zoom. Pretty soft pool and I enjoy the format as we don't have this on Unibet here. It's nice for a change. Up so far on 888 and up on both my 25NL tickets on Unibet as well. Yes it has been a crazy period but sometimes it is nice to drop down and grind my way up again and then see where we end up again. Overall 888poker software is smooth but the whole layout is absolute crap compared to Unibet. Also their mobile version is shocking, no landscape mode nor can you flip your mobile upside down. One thing I like on 888poker is the control centre where you can see your Deposits / Withdrawals / Win-Loss / Active days per certain period. Especially the Win-Loss is nice to see as it shows you clearly how much you are up or down in the last 7 days for example. Easy way of keeping track of your own game and maybe good for some to see when they are losing / spending too much money. Don't feel like quitting, still enjoy playing, still enjoy putting in some work off the tables and I'm not actually spending real life money on this as I just keep on building my bankroll so no need for a break. But I do enjoy not having to play a big volume as that just doesn't work for me personally so it isn't worth the possible reward.

@GR1ZZL3R No need to be sad lol, took all my money off before and just playing with 2 CG 25NL tickets and this €5 is the first part of a €25 playthrough bonus 😄 and the first real money in my account again lol.

Start of a million 🤣

@Andy-Unibet Played on iPad last night, only opened one table and still happened.

@Andy-Unibet Nope, I have 2 tickets and try to play 2 tables on each ticket so 4 tables total, not sure if it gets confused or something. Works fine to start with then starts messing it up on one table while rest works fine, after a while they all go feck 😆 and doesn’t seem they start to work again at any point unless I leave and join a table again. Can’t really remember the time frame, could be after 5-10min, not sure. Maybe depends how many times I use the top up button. I use it all the time when needed to top up to 100bb.

I wonder how current blackrain still is nowadays in the poker world. I don’t think his videos are much value unless you are a beginner just starting out in poker. Don’t think you need a HUD at all to beat 5NL for 10bb/100 either lol And surely we can table select on Unibet as well, open more tables then you are going to play and pick out the best one(s)? Think it’s important to keep an eye on the table and re-value every 10min or whatever and leave if it’s full of regs.

Is there an issue with the rebuy when using a CG ticket? Had several times on desktop I ended up with this pop up and not being able to top up to 100bb. 100% enough cash left on the tickets.@Stubbe-Unibet @Andy-Unibet Edit: same happening on iPad.

Looks like a decent profit anyway, don't think you have to stare blind on the actual bb/100 as 24k hands is I'd say still a relative small sample. Also 4NL is soul destroying with the amount of limpers, short stackers and multiway pots and you should only start to worry if you are barely winning on that stake as that means you haven't got the basics right. Just build a bankroll and move up to 10NL and that's where is starts to become a bit more normal, more regs where you can play your range/position etc more instead of your actual hand. Not sure if I regret buying 3k flop tickets now 🤣 I checked my 50NL stats and I see a flop for every 6.7 hands ish. And on 25NL it comes closer to 6. As long as I don't forget to play a hand every week I'll be fine I hope 😅

I started playing bad as well tbh, bad beats are part of the game as that's how it goes and I'm fine with it but I've never experienced it like how it went recently so this is the way I'm going to deal with it, drop down and see where we get with the tickets. I also signed up to another site and will try and work my way through a welcome bonus there too. And who knows I might just go through a few other sites to profit of the bonuses and just see what the pools are like. At the same time, I have subbed to poker scientist again for 3 months and will put in an effort to work a bit on the GTO approach and check my own plays again. GTO wizard looks an amazing tool as well and depending on how poker goes might give it a shot after my poker scientist sub runs out. Haven't seen any replay rewards appear but I guess I haven't lost any big amounts as what I lost is actually what I won to start with lol. Can't remember last time I deposited on Unibet and if I did it was maybe just to top up the bankroll with €100 or something to keep me away from playing 4NL 😆 What I do understand now is how big name crushers out there sometimes tell their poker story and say they have been broke a few times and I always wondered how on earth you could go broke being a crusher but now I understand it a bit better lol, I have read and watched a few things about downswings and even though I'm not a pro nor a crusher it shows that even the biggest crushers can have months without making a profit and that shows how brutal variance can be.

Cleared the playthrough, waste of my time, running crap, playing crap... needing a regroup as lost my patience. This high volume grinding is no use as it makes me play when I don't want to and when the pool is terrible. Often during the week NL50 is just full of regs, every table 4-5 other regs... wouldn't play but when you have to... so waste of time and efforts. Month is again a loss, 8 buy ins or whatever but doesn't matter because took my balance off, €1850 something: Still have this laying around: So: Still left for more playthroughs probably: Let's see if we can build a bankroll again and turn these tickets in to cash.

@Andy-Unibet @Stubbe-Unibet Anyone able to revive my playthrough please, think I have like 5% left on it 🙄 thanks.

You keep your bonus points but the loyalty level will reset and everyone starts back from lvl 1 Note that if you get to loyalty lvl 6 or higher you will keep the bonus point multiplier you are on but you do start from lvl 1 again. You can press the i for info in the client for info on the loyalty tab.

What's up with these regtards on the cash tables 3 betting to 9bb+ IP and 8-9bb OOP... Actually a few who do this, is this a new thing or something? Don't mind the OOP size giving me better odds to call but IP size is just lol.

@Andy-Unibet Just to confirm, when playing with a cash game ticket bought in the bonus shop, can you clear a playthrough bonus at the same time whilst using these tickets or do you need to use your 'own' cash?

10,5 buy ins down so far, if anyone is wanting donations, it's all happening at 50NL please come and join me. My all ins today, guess I just need to nit it up to AA and KK only. AQ-99 1-0 AA-AK 0-1 AK-QQ 0-1 TT-QQ 0-1 KK-AK 0-1 AK-AA 0-1 KK-QQ 1-0 The way I run in 3b pots, I always get a piece of it but never the nuts. I'm really good at flopping just enough to sucker me in. 3b pre and cb the flop, ofc he has to turn a set and I got it in with my combo draws booh! Standard flop when I squeeze, worst flop for my hand over and over. 3b pre and 1/2 the flop, x it down... ATs ok nh. CO limp, I iso, he min clicks it back I call, flop he bets 1/2 I raise and he clicks it back again lol, I mean AA-QQ wp if you have it, I jam and he shows AK... of course K straight away on the turn and meh. AA all in pre, 2nd time in 2 days vs AKo and lose again vs a straight. No joy for me when I get it in with AK vs AA, and I even have the suited version! Could have guessed as BTN 3b and SB nit 4b... Feeling like my poker journey is coming to an end tbh, coming close to 2 years since I started this blog and have yet to withdraw some money. Never really been able to 'break free' and this latest run has crushed my soul pretty much. Prob still try to get to loyalty lvl6 although I'm not sure why but if I lose even more I probably end up withdrawing my bankroll and call it a day on Unibet. Don't really want to post these crap hands all the time either as it makes me look like some sore loser or whatever + it's a waste of my time anyway so this will be my last post here unless I make a comeback in the future of some kind or something, highly unlikely but who knows. Over and out, P0kerD0nk

And another 4.5 buy ins down today, no end to this. All this run bad makes me play worse than ever. Rigged sh!t.

Well done even if he / she isn't on this forum. Nice win. Hating life if I came last 😂

12 buy ins down in the last 4 days, started today and within 5min I get AA, woop all in pre vs AKo... Aye of course! Even giving me a set just to stab me a bit harder in the back. Then later this rubbish, UTG rec limps, I iso, SB calls and BB who just sat in again squeezes, I call and see a flop, he bets 1/3 and I raise, he jams... ah well if he has JJ+ well done but AKo... and gets there again. 45min played and had enough of it. Off to watch tele, not even bothered anymore!

How funny would it be if a T came up on the flop 🤣
