Just play the slot machines. Just need to take notes on which machine is paying out and which ones aren't.

funny fact :

I calculated the amount I lost to bad beats / bad luck so far at the casino and I come up to 600$ !

preflop 90$, I had KK vs AK
preflop 60$, I had JJ vs AJ
140$, AA vs J9 offsuit, strong betting on flop and turn, called by donk board QJ7 rainbow, 2, J
100$ guy had 5 outs on river, sucked out.
I put 200$ on missed draws of 13 outs and more on the flop. The total amount is 400-500$ but I put 50% because I should of hit at least half the time. I think I was in these situations 5 times, got there 0.

I'm still + 660$ after all this
One more thing that is important to mention : I don't tilt at the casino. I tilted online, but live poker, I don't tilt.

thanks

yeah I do good. Last time I went, played the 2-5. It was unusually very hard this time. The place is starting to be empty. Fishes lost all their money I guess.

Bought in for 500$. Was up to 650, made a stupid play, down to 500 then another dumb ass play, down to 250, only to go back up to 450. Then a huge fish came to the table, went up to 760, to go down to 680 and I left. So + 180 for the night. Going back tomorrow or in 2 days, but I'll play the 1-2.
So far up 1000$ at live poker at the casino. Did not post last week, forum went down.

You find yourself more restrained playing live because you're very aware that they can reach across the table and thump you.

Good luck at the casino, last time I went I was raising playing almost every hand trying to bluff everybody and show the bluffs to show my manhood to the guys and 2 gilrs at the table, but after awhile no matter what I did they would call me down, so I said to myself Im not gonna bluff anymore, so I pick pocket aces and reraise someone 3 people call, flop comes 2/3/2 and I move all in, and 3 people call me, 1 guy has A/2Suited, other guy got 3/4 and someone else got J/J and they busted me.

Funnier fact! You failed to calculate your actual pot equity in all the spots you got your money in good and subtract that from the total lost to bad beats so your calculation is pretty useless and inaccurate!!

What I was pointing out like an areshole is:

If you put your money in with AA vs Kk for $100 you are an 80% favourite so when you win $100 you have actually ran $20 above expectation. Wen you lose the $100 you are only $80 below expectation.

If your hands hold up 7/10 times then the positive equity gained those 7 times probably balances out the 3 they didnt hold up. Don't think just because you go in wit the bets of it you have a right to that pot. You will end up always moaning about bad beats feeling unlucky believeing you cant win and consequently playing worse.
