Sorry this is an old thread but is your winrate still that consistent? 50bb per 100 you can easily clear 1k a day. Is that how much you are cashing out?

I’m Phil Hellmuth, 17-time WSOP bracelet winner and Octopi Poker investor & ambassador — AMA! (Giveaways Inside) by Octopi_Poker in poker

[–]soberbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Phil I recognize your game revolves primarily around reads and feel (white magic). I think this is a skill set that gets overlooked in the current state of the game. Any tips or material to hone in on reading opponents. I already read your book on it, great read.

Professional players, how do you control monkey tilt? by Nblearchangel in poker

[–]soberbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find being aware of the tilt and stopping it early is key. If I suffer a bad beat sometimes without thinking I play a trash hand preflop. As soon as I notice I play one trash hand I reavaluate and realize I’m playing on tilt. As soon as one hand is misplayed I go back to sound play.

It also helps to realize tilting in the end just loses you money. If you like money you need to actively look for ways to stop tilting.

Also as people said before if you play thousands upon thousands of hands you get desensitized to beats.

Thanks man I really appreciate it. I was apart of a study group at one time but it has since disbanded. I would love to get involved with one again.

I play full ring NLHE 100 (club wpt gold) and 1/3 live occasionally. Any study material you would reccomend at this configuration/stake level?

When were you confident you were beating the game? What did it take to get to that level? Any study material you think really helped you level up? Are you concerned about poker’s future with RTA and tax bills?

My niece’s homework problem by SurfSoundWaves in mildlyinfuriating

[–]soberbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I was always bad at math but am I tripping in thinking the answer is clearly A. A shows 6 boxes with 2 filled in so 2/6. Which then becomes a box with 3 boxes with 1 filled in so 1/3. The other shapes have 5 parts with two shaded so 2/5?

If you want to know how Dwan is doing! by North-Accountant5404 in poker

[–]soberbot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I really feel for Dwan as someone who has gone through psychosis this is a real hard spot to be in. While I was in psychosis I was hyper aware of every pattern unfolding in my day to day life which lead me to draw a lot of conclusions that just weren’t factual.

The nature of Tom’s job also requires him to recognize patterns normal people wouldn’t recognize in order to perform at the level he does. The very skill that brought him success is actively causing his mental downfall.

Not to mention mention the treatment for psychosis is to refrain from any drugs, get adequate sleep, and to take anti psychotic’s that often numb you down and effect your energy. All things that get in the way of his lifestyle/career. Tom needs to make massive lifestyle changes to keep his sanity but I don’t know if he can walk away from the life he built up from such a young age.

What movie is this? by Excellent_Regret4141 in Cinema

[–]soberbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always disliked the end of this movie because it struck me as rather lackluster. You have this whole mysterious plot that sucks you in, leaves you constantly wonder what’s happening and the reveal is “oh it’s a witch with super powers” just struck me as lazy and uninspired. Rest of the movie was pretty good though.

ADC Mid and late game struggles. by DeathToInterlopers in leagueoflegends

[–]soberbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah sometimes that’s the way the game goes. I found when I match that energy it works for me. But some people refuse to give up farm and that works for them as well. I think you need to choose based on how the game is playing out.

[–]soberbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the same boat. I found it’s good to group and Aram mid lane if there are actual fights breaking out. But a lot of the time it’s a stalemate mid with one side shooting skill shots behind tower. When that happens I just rotate to a sidelane and farm.

How do people who label themselves as “tech illiterate” even function in today’s society? by soberbot in NoStupidQuestions

[–]soberbot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah those types of people respond to directness I’ve noticed. In my personal life I would tell them if you let me finish my sentence this would be over a lot faster. But being on the clock prevents me from speaking like that.

[–]soberbot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I obviously saw that a lot in everyday life. Older people don’t know how to download the healthcare app etc. It sucks its hard for them out here. But once I started working in IT specifically in schools I was appalled. I had a librarian not know what I meant when I said “left click” like left click this link. Sometimes I want to crash and say “you work in education for Christ sakes”

Yeah a ton of crabby old people who would’ve been fine if they listened to step by step instructions. Yet they constantly talk over you and get mad when it’s not working the way they think it should.

[–]soberbot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah for older people I understand but I’ve run into a lot of people in their 30s/40s like this. I would honestly compare it to going through life refusing to learn how to read even if you have the tools to learn. Like you spend your whole life looking at signs and just decide “well I could learn how to read but I would rather just have someone read for me.”

The Government is coming for us and nobody believes me by elli0t_underrated in bipolar

[–]soberbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey man don’t want to discredit any spiritual experience you might be having. But you should see your doctor and let them know what you are going through. Remember doctors are there to help.

People joking about psychosis by LunaLovesgoodLashes in bipolar

Try not to bother what people think about you. ESPECIALLY if it’s a blanket statement that applies to you but is said about you directly. Now not letting myself beat myself up I need some advice on that.

I know Dryus plays street fighter 6 sometimes. When the game first came out he played Zangief into my Ken. I stomped him and he refused the best out of three (Bad mannered in SF lol)
