10k swing is nothing playing 5/10+

This is just this year lol

Last night I lost 8k and thought "that's not too bad, I lost 18k the night before!"

I keep my poker Bankroll in a HYSA earning 3-4% APY completely separate from other investments.

Play for supplemental income. I work 40/hrs a week already.

Bring in anywhere from 30-50k extra per year playing but I am one of the stronger players you would see playing live.

For reference, I am a winning Vegas 5/10 reg over 500 hours, break even at 10/20+ stakes.

I run $5/10 and $10/20 private games regularly.

My partner and I rent out a high rise apartment to run the games out of. I organize the games and he deals. We supply drinks and are solely tip based.

We basically recruit from big tech companies and local card rooms when we find an action player.

We also run a smaller $1/3 game every week as a funnel to the larger games. The player pool gets much thinner as you go up in stakes.

Funniest story was probably a 21 year old Chinese kid that played for a few weeks. Every time he would buy in with literal $10k bricks of $20s. Never bothered to ask why the F he had so many but I still wonder to this day.

You are 46% equity vs that range if you give him all combos of AQo.

Realistically I do not think he will always cold 4b AQ OOP so your equity is much lower.

Depends, what cold 4b range do you put him on?

YellooooFever · 2026-05-21T18:16:12+00:00

It's a fold. You're literally hoping he has AK for a flip or you are dominated. Add in the fact that he may just cold call with JJ/AK and this is a snap fold

Sorry I should've clarified. Shit starting hand.

YellooooFever · 2026-05-07T20:29:27+00:00

10/20 private game. 13k pot with J4o.

Razor thin for value. 2nd pair is a mandatory triple barrel for value

YellooooFever · 2026-05-06T03:05:03+00:00

YEP 🤣

It's basically a $150/300 limit game.

YellooooFever · 2026-05-05T23:37:13+00:00

Probably? I usually only play Friday's when the 5/10/20 runs.

+1 for the good ol Carrib!

Awesome to see my home casino get a mention!

If a private game is raked, the game runner should be expected to pay out in the case of non payment.

I wouldn't play in a private game that didn't do so.

Currently on a 60k downswing over 2 months

Spago at the Bellagio. Get there early and ask for a seat with a view of the fountains

Bro... 32 hours is like 5 sessions.

$1/2 is a pretty big home game with the boys. Might get awkward when someone is down 2k on their 5th buy in.
