poker HUsng challenge

[kantor1003]

Hey, I feel like getting some intpían challenge to improve my HU game. My bankroll is a tad limited, so playing the 10 dollar buy ins would be preferable. We could take a series of perhaps 5-10 matches if you want. The poker site is full tilt. If anyone here is up for it, either pm me or post your interest here, and I'll pm you.

I can record a video, or supply my hand histories here (would be cool if you could do the same) so we can discuss hands and give each other advice. I think it could make for a good learning experience - Hopefully, for both of us. If not, that's not too bad, seeing I would likely get a healthy bankroll boost :P

Anyone up for this?

 

[kantor1003]

No takers? come on people! :P

 

[snafupants]

That sounds enjoyable, granted we play for human lives and the game takes place on this while over a swamp teeming with alligators. Shuffle up and deal!

 

[kantor1003]

Haha, that would be fun! hmm... Did anyone say "joker"?

 

[kantor1003]

Not a single poker player here??? Sick.

 

[shoeless]

so your idea is... to run back and forth from your poker game to your computer and talk about it? live action?

sounds like a super fun idea.

Just wait for me to turn 18.

?? I think you have misunderstood, and I am not sure wether "sounds like a super fun idea" is ironical, but I am in an optimistic mood today, and assume it isn't so.
It is really simple; I want to play against one of you on full tilt. The game is heads up sng nl holdem with a buy in between 5-20. Preferably, the person I'm facing will agree to play 5-10 matches. The matches will be recorded by me and I expect my opponent to post his hand histories as well in any format/way he chooses to.

Just wait for me to turn 18.

Yeah, I know you'll start playing then and I'm looking forward to it. Why wait though? Problems getting your parents to transfer some money to the site?

You got it.

That sounds sooo wrong.

That sounds sooo wrong.

I was going to laugh, but I instead decided to ride an elephant. I must say, I think I made the right choice.

I have a full tilt account. Give me some time to finish paying for the essential schooling materials and, in a few weeks, I'll gladly participate. I've won 2 sit and go's there before, about a year or so ago. How much poker have I played since then? Not much. Last game, last hand I played, I was defeated by a straight flush in an "all in" (Had a good amount of money in that pot) and it took my mojo.

Awesome, finally a candidate! Be sure to check in here once you are ready

I'd play with playmoney; I don't really see the point in playing a fellow INTPf member with real money. Also I play cash full ring games and tend to avoid SNGs. My HU play needs work...

I'd play cash too, but I'm currently not rolled to play HU cash, so I'll have to play sng's for a while longer.

Regarding playing with play money, there isn't really any good poker software that allows play money HU, besides, money is really essential to the game imo.
If an intp busted me for 5-10 buy ins, I wouldn't hold any more grudge against him then the next guy. I don't think about money when I play, but removing money from the equation doesn't work too well.

If your HU needs work, then you'll probably get something back by playing me. You'll also get access to all the hands we've played in a video format.

I'm not rolled to play anything other than NL2 ring games. Maybe I'll try some HU in a week or two.

Whats your bankroll?

 

[zxc]

$65, I started with $50 a week ago.

Ah, I see.. so your rolled to play the 2 dollar ones - due to rake considerations I wouldn't play HU sngs before you are proper rolled to play the 5s.

 

[Beat Mango]

First time I'd played poker in ages, sat down and lost 3 HUsng's in a row. I remember why I stopped playing - because it makes me freaking mad. Anyway, my bankroll's now gone, I can't play.

 

[kantor1003]

haha, well, that sucks. I lost a few today too, but it takes way more than 3 losses before I get mentally drained. About 10 losses in a row should do it I think

 

[kantor1003]

Still not any takers?
