Poker Jones: The week in re-spew
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2011/05/week-in-re-spew.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Monday, May 16, 2011. The week in re-spew. Run good went off the rails this weekend. Lost over a buy in Friday at Nautica without much effort. Some of it was transferred to the awful old fart who rivered gutshots not once, but twice. Some was lost playing speculative hands that went nowhere. Another $120 was spewed near the end of the session when I called a preflop raise with 6-5o from EP. Why did I play 6-5o from EP? A losing session is no bother. Gutted by an AOF? The t...

Poker Jones: Must read
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2011/05/must-read.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Tuesday, May 17, 2011. Yesterday on 2 2. Great stuff. This description of a player type is one of my favorite passages:. Feel free to bluff this guy - but the key is figure out the exact bet size that HE would bet if he hit the flush, and bet accordingly. He'll tank, then say "man I knew you drew out on me", and fold - the correct response is to sigh, tap the table and say good fold, quickly muck and give him credit for a great soul read.

Poker Jones: Starting all over again
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2010/10/starting-all-over-again.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Sunday, October 17, 2010. Starting all over again. If you have Google reader or some other aggregator and actually have my blog linked, you might be confused about a couple of posts I tried to put up yesterday with a Pokerstars flag for a blogger freeroll. The thing blew out the template, prompting an e-mail to PS and a semi-quick response that the coding is not working. Here was the rest of that failed post:. Two days later, I finished second in a $8.80 6-max PLO tour...

Poker Jones: Quick turnaround
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2010/05/quick-turnaround.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Sunday, May 09, 2010. Picking up from my previous post, I bring you a semi-contemporaneous retelling of my SCOOP PLO adventures from last night. And now, let us go to the action on the felt. Long way to go. Blinds at 1250/2500. But I'm sitting on 170 BB at this point, so there's lots of room to play AND be patient. A nice spot. Finally got moved after spending the first 5 1/2 hours at my starting table. Armor chinked a bit after losing a 115K pot with A-Q-Q-J on a flop of ...

Poker Jones: July 2006
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Monday, July 31, 2006. Mrs Jones wanted to see a chick flick tonight at the local multiplex. I went willingly. I'm the strong yet sensitive type, after all. But how was I supposed to know that the sign for "Women" was not for the movie she wanted us to see? No big deal. My lawyer says he'll have everything straightened out in a few days. Posted by Poker Jones at 9:49 PM. Sunday, July 30, 2006. It might be chump change, but it's not a bad return on a $3 investment. I'll...

Poker Jones: April 2006
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Tuesday, April 18, 2006. I haven't had the time or energy to blog lately. And I haven't had much to say about the state of my poker game because I'm not sure where it's at. It might be evolving. It might be sliding ass first into Signor Donkey's Third Circle of Hell. You know, the one where you lie in mud as torrents of shit rain beat down upon you. Poker, at least, represents some earnings potential. That's easier to type, of course, when the bankroll is sturdy. B...There...

Poker Jones: Nautical voyage
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2011/05/nautical-voyage.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Friday, May 13, 2011. Run good continues and I’m not ashamed to say that makes me happy. Left some money on the table Wednesday. Here’s an example:. Raised to $14 from the SB with queens after some limps. Three callers. Flop is Q-5-5. Checks around. I fire $25 at the turn. All fold. Crap. Should have led the flop. May have gotten the same result, but I suspect that line would have given me a better chance of getting more out of the hand. I left because I had grown tired of...

Poker Jones: December 2005
http://lowlimitjunkie.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
The life of a low-limit junkie. Thursday, December 29, 2005. A testament to how badly other people play in these things, I've found that I've actually one a few, resulting in massive 500-600 percent ROIs - WOOHOO! Four places paid with prize ranging from $2.40 for fourth to $9.60 for first. What kind of desperate losers are these people? That's when he typed: "But I got a family.". Got a freakin' family? Are you living in some Third World country where the average annual income is $4.99? Beats me. Th...
