Three-Bet Donkey

Three-betting my way to the poorhouse!

Stop it

Posted by MaxPen on January 11, 2006

I generally play 3 tables of $3/$6 full ring, two sessions each day. Lately, I have been winning in my first session and then I get the bright idea to give $5/$10 a shot in my second session. Bad idea.

I have been losing all of my profits and then some when trying this. It’s a stupid mistake and one I should know not to make, yet I still do like some idiot that has no clue. My bankroll is ready for $5/$10, my game is not.

At 3/6 I am one aggressive player, at 5/10 I am so weak tight its not even funny. It has nothing to do with the cards I am getting or anything like that. I am simply playing bad poker when I take a shot, yet I keep trying and losing. So for a while, I am banning myself from the 5/10 tables. If you see me sitting at one, come to my home and beat me with a sack of oranges please.

I am in the process of finishing up my last PR skin bonus chase at Eurobet. It can’t end fast enough. I have about 2400 more points to clear and I will be done, should have it done by this Friday with any luck.

It’s easy to see why the PR skins give such huge amounts of bonuses. The software is not that great, and game selection is horrid. Generally between 2 and 5 tables at the levels I play, all tight as can be. But, in the last two months I bet I have cleared close to $2500 in bonus money from them, so hard to argue with that.

I have just signed up at Full Tilt with a rakeback deal and am looking forward to playing over there for a while and see how those games are. I have heard they are pretty fishy so that excites me. Plus, the rakeback deal won’t hurt either. Hopefully I will finish up a couple of odd bonuses over the weekend and get started at FT come Monday.
