USD/JPY: weekly wave analysis
by Roman Petukhov
Daily. Construction of a long-lasting and powerful uptrend V, the formation of which started after the end of triangle IV, is in progress.
H12. The chart contains the layout of wave V ending. We see that the last upward impulse (5) of [5] of V is being formed. Let us consider its internal structure to determine the trend potential for the upcoming week.
H4. Within wave (5), we can observe construction of a corrective wave 4, which is taking the form of an extended horizontal correction. When wave 4 is fully complete, which is to happen within the first few trading days of the new week, the price growth will continue up to the previous high level, as indicated on the chart.

The N1-suppression effect for self-initiated sounds is independent of attention
Cognition and behavior: learning and behavior
If we initiate a sound by our own motor behavior, the N1 component of the auditory event-related brain potential (ERP) that the sound elicits is attenuated compared to the N1 elicited by the same sound when it is initiated externally. It has been suggested that this N1 suppression results from an internal predictive mechanism that is in the service of discriminating the sensory consequences of one's own actions from other sensory input. As the N1-suppression effect is becoming a popular approach to investigate predictive processing in cognitive and social neuroscience, it is important to exclude an alternative interpretation not related to prediction. According to the attentional account, the N1 suppression is due to a difference in the allocation of attention between self- and externally-initiated sounds. To test this hypothesis, we manipulated the allocation of attention to the sounds in different blocks: Attention was directed either to the sounds, to the own motor acts or to visual stimuli. If attention causes the N1-suppression effect, then manipulating attention should affect the effect for self-initiated sounds.
We found N1 suppression in all conditions. The N1 per se was affected by attention, but there was no interaction between attention and self-initiation effects. This implies that self-initiation N1 effects are not caused by attention.
The present results support the assumption that the N1-suppression effect for self-initiated sounds indicates the operation of an internal predictive mechanism. Furthermore, while attention had an influence on the N1a, N1b, and N1c components, the N1-suppression effect was confined to the N1b and N1c subcomponents suggesting that the major contribution to the auditory N1-suppression effect is circumscribed to late N1 components.
It is important to differentiate sensory information resulting from one's own actions from environmental events which are not the result of our own actions. It has been proposed that this differentiation is based on an internal forward model
Within this self-generation framework, the N1 suppression paradigm has become a popular approach to investigate predictive auditory sensory processing
Although sustained differences in arousal are well controlled in this mixed design, it is obvious that transient arousal effects cannot be controlled for. Even more important, the improved paradigm has not been designed for excluding attentional influences on the N1-suppression effect. In fact, an enlarged P3a to externally-initiated sounds compared to the P3a for self-initiated sounds reported for the mixed design
Moreover, in order to focus on effects that truly reflect attenuation of sensory responses due to a match of incoming stimulation with predicted stimulation in sensory cortex, we will make a more detailed analysis of the auditory N1, separating suppression effects for the N1a, N1b, and N1c components

Comparison of self-initiation and attention effects on the auditory N1
In the following, attention effects are outlined and then compared to the self-initiation effect. In order to simplify the comparison, we focused on effects of attending (AS) vs. not attending (AM, AV) to sounds, pooling the attention effects for the AM and AV conditions, which were rather similar (cf.

(B) Voltage maps and scalp current densities (SCDs) of the difference wave during the latency ranges of the N1a (60–100 ms), N1b (85–150 ms) and N1c (115–150 ms) time window.
The SCD distribution reveals that the putative sources of this attention effect are located in more parietal areas compared to the self-initiation effect (see Figure
In the present study we investigated to which extent the N1-suppression effect for self-initiated sounds can be explained by a differential allocation of attention to self-initiated and externally-initiated sounds. To overcome possible limitations of the traditional blocked design self-initiated sounds and externally-initiated sounds as well as the motor control were presented within the same block. The allocation of attention was manipulated block-wise in three different attention conditions (
Horvath and colleagues (2012) have proposed that that N1 suppression might possibly be caused by split attentional resources in active conditions compared to passive conditions of the traditional blocked design
Similar to forward modeling effects in other species
As predicted, the allocation of attention to the sounds resulted in an increase of the auditory N1, as compared to the N1 elicited by the sounds when attention was directed to the button presses or to the visual stimuli. This finding is consistent with results from previous studies
Moreover, the comparison of the self-initiation effect and the attention effect revealed that partly separate N1 components
We could show that the N1 suppression was equally large and of equal distribution when subjects directed their attention towards the sound and when the directed their attention away from the sounds, towards the button presses or the visual stimuli. Thus, the self-initiation effect can hardly be explained by the differential amount of attention devoted to self- and externally-triggered sounds. Instead, the present results support the notion that N1 suppression for self-initiated sounds seems to reflect the activity of an internal predictive mechanism. Whereas the effects of voluntary attention affect all N1 components, the self-initiation effect seems to be confined to the N1b and N1c components. The present mixed design provides a useful tool to measure genuine self-initiation effects.
Fifteen healthy volunteers (7 male, 1 left-handed) participated in the experiment. Two male participants had to be excluded from the analysis due to low signal-to-noise ratio. Mean age of the remaining thirteen participants was 22.92 years (range: 19 to 29 years). All participants reported normal hearing and normal or corrected-to-normal vision. None were taking any medication affecting the central nervous system. All participants received either course credit or payment for their participation. The experiment was undertaken with the understanding and written consent of each subject. The experimental protocol conformed to the Declaration of Helsinki and the ethics guidelines of the German Association of Psychology (ethics board of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Psychologie, DGPs:
Experimental conditions
Participants were asked to fixate on a grey cross constantly displayed on the center of a black screen. Small extensions of the fixation cross (from a visual angle of 0.69° to 0.74° with a distance to the monitor of 100 cm) were presented for 80 ms duration using a variable stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) of 5–15 s. These extended fixation crosses were not predictable for the participants. Using a mixed experimental design self-initiated and externally-initiated sounds were presented in the same block (Figure
Figure 5
Schematic illustration of the experimental mixed design
Schematic illustration of the experimental mixed design. Participants were asked to fixate on a grey cross constantly displayed on the center of a black screen. Small extensions of the fixation cross (from a visual angle of 0.69° to 0.74°) were presented for 80 ms duration. The extended fixation crosses were unpredictable in their occurrence using a variable SOA of 5–15 s. Additionally, participants pressed a button approximately every 6.5 s (range 5–8 s). With a probability of 50% button presses were followed by a sound immediately (MA, black). In the remaining 50% button presses were not followed by any sound (M, grey). It was not predictable if the button press would initiate a sound or not. Additionally, externally-produced sounds (with the same physical parameters as the self-initiated ones) occurred randomly between button presses (A, blue). Externally-produced sounds were unpredictable in their occurrence with a variable SOA between 5–8 s (mean of 6.5 s).
Experimental procedure
During EEG recordings, participants were seated in a sound-attenuated and electrically shielded chamber. Auditory stimulation was run via MATLAB using the Cogent2000 toolbox (
Each block consisted on average of twelve (range: ten to fourteen) self-initiated sounds (MA) and silent button presses (M), respectively. This variation was included to make the counting task less predictable for the participants. A comparable number of externally-initiated sounds (A) was presented depending on the mean SOA of the self-paced button presses. In total a mean of 96 trials were analysed for each event (MA, A, M) for each attention condition (
Data recording and analysis
EEG activity was recorded continuously with Ag/AgCl electrodes from 60 standard locations (Fp1, Fp2, AF3, AFz, AF4, F7, F5, F3, F1, Fz, F2, F4, F8, FT7, FC3, FC1, FCz, FC2, FC4, FC6, FT8, T7, C5, C3, C1, Cz, C2, C4, C6, T8, TP7, CP5, CP3, CP1, CPz, CP2, CP4, CP6, TP8, P7, P5, P3, P1, Pz, P2, P4, P6, P8, PO9, PO7, PO3, POz, PO4, PO8, PO10, O1, Oz, O2) according to the international 10–20 electrode system
Automatic eye movement correction was applied on the data according to the procedure described in
To correct for motor activity present in responses to self-initiated sounds, the ERPs elicited by button presses followed by no sound were subtracted from the ERPs elicited to the self-initiated sounds. This motor-response-corrected ERP was then compared with the ERP of the externally-initiated sounds. In all figures and analysis, ERPs elicited by the self-initiated sounds were corrected this way. This approach has become an appropriate procedure in previous research (presenting MA and M conditions in separate blocks) to measure auditory processing activity in the presence of motor-related activity. However, presenting MA and M conditions introduces a possible confound, namely that it cannot be completely ruled out that non-motor responses, e.g. responses related to temporal expectations of the sound, might also be eliminated subtracting the ERPs elicited by button presses followed by no sound from the ERPs elicited to the self-initiated sounds. However, as the N1-suppression effect observed in the present study was virtually identical to the one reported in previous studies using no mixed design suggests that the suppression effects are not an artefact of the subtraction method of the mixed design.
Because of the multiple components with separate and potentially overlapping latencies underlying the N1
For studying the scalp topographies in the interesting latency ranges, ERP voltage distributions were transformed into scalp current density (SCD) distributions, computing the second spatial derivative of the interpolated potential distribution
aAs the recording of neural responses to motor activity without sounds in separate experimental blocks and subtracting these responses from the motor responses of the active condition could lead to biased estimates of sensory processing

Many of PGA Professionals are playing the best golf of their lives including Fran Marrello of Canaan Country Club. This year, Marrello won the PGA Spring Stroke Play to earn a spot into the Travelers Championship, the 60th Connecticut Senior PGA Championship, and tied for second in this week's 29th Connecticut Senior Open. Incidentally, Marrello has never won the Connecticut Open title. It is the only Connecticut major missing from his resume.
Eric Clark Leaving Connecticut Section PGA after 4 Years
ROCKY HILL, Conn. (July 14, 2011) – Eric Clark, who began employment with the Connecticut Section PGA in April of 2007 and then promoted to Tournament Program Director in 2008, will be leaving us on July 29. Clark has taken a new position with U.S. Food Service as territory manager and will begin with training on August 1, out of Norwich, Conn.
"Eric has been an invaluable member of our team for over four years, and the relationships he has fostered with our professional membership, sponsors, golf industry allies, and customers cannot be easily replaced or duplicated," said Tom Hantke, executive director of the Connecticut PGA. "But more than anything, he will be sorely missed by his fellow staff members who will hold special and cherished memories of the close working relationship and bonds we formed."View More

Report: Morecambe 2 Argyle 1
Morecambe 2
Ellison 28
Amond 83
Argyle 1
Reid 27
by CHRIS PARSONS
PADRAIG Amond's neat finish seven minutes from time condemned the Pilgrims to their first ever defeat at the Globe Arena.
It was Argyle who had taken the lead, in much the same way that they had against Rochdale seven days previously when a penalty, won by Marvin Morgan, was comfortably finished by strike partner Reuben Reid.
Unfortunately, the lead was not to last and just a minute later, Morecambe stalwart Kevin Ellison had levelled for the home side.
Ellison then had a hand in the winner, providing a cross from Amond to sweep home from 15 yards.
With back to back wins under the belt, Argyle manager John Sheridan understandably kept faith in the same XI who had defeated both Cheltenham and Rochdale.
Morecambe, the defeat underdog in a Capital One Cup tie with Premier League Newcastle on Wednesday, opted for four changes.
Out came Tony Diagne, Andrew Wright, Ryan Williams and Jack Sampson and in went Ryan Threlfall, Chris McCready, Alex Kenyon and Marcus Marshall as the Shrimps switched from a 4-5-1 to a 4-3-3.
The game enjoyed a lively opening period with three corners within the first three minutes. The first fell to the home side and wasted while the second and third were given to the Pilgrims after hurried clearances from the Morecambe back four.
Argyle were beginning to find their rhythm and were enjoying increasing amounts of possession in their opponents' half. It was from one of these threatening reccies that Dominic Blizzard fashioned a 25 yard drive that sailed narrowly over the crossbar.
Marvin Morgan then got his eye in with dipping half-volley that sialed over before Reuben Reid capitalised on a loose ball but put too much on his lob as Morecambe 'keeper Barry Roche approached.
Another flurry of Argyle corners kept their Green Army on their feet for a spell just after the 20 minute mark but seven minutes later, they were on their feet once more, this time for an Argyle goal.
Although three minutes further on in the game than the match-winning goal against Rochdale, the formula from which is materialised was much the same.
Morgan, a handful for defenders even at the worst of times, chased down a loose ball and having beaten Mark Hughes for strength, was eventually hauled down by the Shrimps' skipper. Referee Tony Harrington, who had awarded three penalties in the same fixture last season, pointed to the spot again for Reuben Reid to fire Argyle in front.
Sadly, though, Argyle's lead was to last less than 60 seconds when Ellison battled his way through the Pilgrims' defence to beat Luke McCormick from ten yards.
It was a tough pill for Argyle to stomach and for a few minutes, they lost their way as McCormick was again called into action to punch clear a dangerous corner from the right.
But they soon found their stride again by the time that Blizzard's lightening-paced free-kick found the grateful arms of Roche.
Hourihane then sent an ambitious volley over the bar before a nasty-looking shoulder injury to Chris McCready halted play for a number of minutes.
The first half never really recovered from the break in play but when play kicked off again at 4.05pm, Argyle were again looking to get forward with Hourihane again causing problems from distance. This time, a timely intervention from a Morecambe defender, possibly with a hand, prevented the changed-strip Roche from making a save.
Another delay, this time to wait for a corner flag to be replaced, saw Max Blanchard make his first appearance of the season, as a replacement for Durrell Berry, who was greeted from the pitch with a fresh pack of ice.
Just before the hour mark, Argyle had their best chance to score of the match so far when an outstanding Hourihane free-kick from the left was volleyed goalwards by Trotman.
The Argyle fans and even this reporter were on their feet in celebration only for Roche to make an incredible full-stretched save to deny him. Reeling but still alert, it was Nelson reacted first to the follow up but was again left with his head in his hands thanks to a brave, full-bodied block by Steward Drummond.
Then followed a slight lull in the game with both sides failure to keep possession effectively came a few niggly little fouls.
Andres Gurrieri's introduction 20 minutes from time was Sheridan's counter to this but he had barely touched the ball when Trotman gave McCormick a scare when he headed narrowly over his own bar.
Soon after, though, the Pilgrims were punished, when Ellison's cross from the left was neatly swiped home by Amond.
The last throw of the dice saw Tyler Harvey replace Romy Boco but sadly, even the boy wonder himself could not rescue a point for the Pilgrims.
Morecambe (4-3-3):
1 Barry Roche; 22 Andy Parrish, 15 Chris McCready ( 8 Andrew Wright 43), 5 Mark Hughes (capt), 3 Robbie Threlfall; 17 Andy Fleming, 4 Alex Kenyon, 11 Kevin Ellison (6 Tony Diange 90); 14 Marcus Marshall (9 Jack Sampson 66), 27 Padraig Amond, 16 Stewart Drummond.

EUR/USD remaining within cloud
Tatiana Norkina, FBS analyst
Trading on the major currency pair on Forex began with the rate's recovery to the 1.1245 mark today. However, the bulls can not yet overcome the horizontal Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen lines resistance. The pair remains within the Ichimoku cloud, in close proximity to its lower border. The bearish cloud is obvious to trigger negative sentiment rise in the market. But if the bulls manage to keep at the current levels during the day, the currency pair rate might rise even to the 14th figure in the near future. Otherwise, we will expect an update of the past week's lows.
Technical levels: support – 1.1180, 1.1200; resistance – 1.1270/80.
Trade recommendations: out of market.

On Election Day, Georgia quietly elected its first openly gay male state legislator.
Sam Park — the son of Korean immigrants and only Asian-American representative serving in Georgia's upcoming House of Representatives — made strides in the state's political landscape as he unseated a three-term incumbent Republican, winning 51 percent of the vote with a campaign based on healthcare, equality, and economic policy.
"I'm a gay, Christian, Korean man sitting in the intersection of faith, sexual orientation and ethnicity," Park told NBC News. "I feel that being myself, I have the opportunity to build bridges between communities that haven't seen eye to eye - or may have necessarily been aware of one another."
Park will be representing over 85 thousand residents living in Gwinnett County, the second-most populated county in Georgia. He said his bid for office was prompted by his mother's cancer diagnosis in 2014. She was given 6 months to live, but they were able to find treatment options through Medicare and Medicaid.
"When my mom was diagnosed, everything kind of hit home in terms of what I wanted to do with my life, and who I wanted to serve," Park said. "It dawned on me that having access to healthcare is a matter of life or death."
His mother is now working toward partial remission, and Park is hoping to ensure all Georgians have access to healthcare by expanding Medicaid in the state during his time in office.
"Knowing that tens of thousands of people in my home state that could be in the same position that I was in — that was something that broke my heart," he said.
Park's social media manager Bonnie Youn said she was, like many others, compelled by his story.
"The Democratic Party of Georgia didn't think his area was winnable," she said. "But he did. It's finally time that we have representation that matches our county. As the first Asian-American progressive to be elected in our county, he's a trailblazer."
Bee Nguyen, his campaign manager, described the campaign as a grassroots movement that spoke to those who were underrepresented in Georgia's political sphere. She said Park's victory was personal for her, as well as the rest of his supporters.
"If he didn't win the race we wouldn't have a single Asian American in the house of representatives in Georgia," she said. "To be a young progressive Asian-American candidate was something really different, and the symbolism resonated with me."
The campaign team says that sentiment was shared by people even beyond the county in the aftermath of the presidential election results.
"A lot of folks on our side felt like a dark cloud came down - it was really unexpected," Park said. "But then to hear from so many people, not just in Georgia but throughout the world, that we gave people some hope - a silver lining - that, to me, was really humbling."
Park has mixed feelings about the federal elections and but says he respects the results of the democratic process. For his upcoming two years in office, he plans to uphold the principles that his campaign was based on, which includes protecting those who may be in risk — like immigrants, Muslims, and the LGBTQ community.
"We need to be vigilant more than ever right now," he said. "Now is not the time to be discouraged. We've been given an opportunity to be a safe place — to do what we can for people."
But with the Republican Party still holding a strong majority in both chambers of the state's general assembly and with Republican Nathan Deal as Governor, Park says he has his work cut out for him in terms of trying to push a legislative agenda.
"The odds are not necessarily in my favour," he said. "But they never were."

Correction: An earlier version of this story referred to Sam Park as Georgia's first openly gay legislator. He is the first openly gay male elected to Georgia's General Assembly.

Flushing Meadows Corona Park
Samuel & Ethel Lefrak Meadow
This sprawling 96-acre meadow overlooking Willow Lake is named in honor of Samuel and Ethel LeFrak. Samuel J. LeFrak (1918-2003) was the third generation chairman of the Lefrak Organization. Best known for developing nearby Lefrak City, a self-contained housing and commercial complex built in the 1960s, he was one of the foremost leaders in the housing and energy industries of the 20th century.
LeFrak's grandfather, Aaron LeFrak, emigrated from France to America in 1898 with his son, Harry LeFrak (1885-1963), and founded the company in 1901. Samuel J. LeFrak was born on February 12, 1918. He attended Erasmus Hall High School, the University of Maryland, Columbia University, and Harvard University. He married Ethel Stone, who attended Barnard College, in 1941, and together they had three daughters and a son.
With his great knowledge of housing and energy technology, LeFrak served six New York City mayors, five governors, and five presidents. He was a member of the United States National Energy Council, the New York Task Force on Housing, and the New York City Industrial Development Corporation. Lefrak acted as Special Consultant for the State Department, U.S. delegate to the International Conference on Housing and Urban Development in Geneva, and many nations invited him to advise on their land development projects. In addition to receiving many awards and honorary degrees, LeFrak was knighted by the Kings of both Sweden and Norway. LeFrak also had an extensive art collection, which he lent to museums throughout the world.
Samuel J. LeFrak and his wife, Ethel, donated $25,000 to the City Parks Foundation "Adopt-A-Park" Program for the creation of this meadow, and it was dedicated on May 29, 1991. Located near the southern tip of Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, between the Van Wyck Expressway and the Jamaica Yards of the Metropolitan Transit Authority, LeFrak meadow includes the Willow Lake Natural Area. Although constructed for the 1939-40 New York World's Fair, this artificial wetland attracts a variety of wildlife. On November 10, 1976, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation designated the 47.6-acre Willow Lake a protected freshwater wetland.

Future project managers will work on a virtual basis that enables them to better focus on what matters as well as to monitor and control operational risks mindfully. The picture below shall illustrate the business-related processes behind a financial instrument (for instance, as used by hedge funds).
With the geographic barrier to entry being removed, the diversity and sheer quantity of the application pool increases. These qualities of the application pool allows a team to select individuals best-suited for a position. A very important group that can potentially enter this workforce is the economically disadvantaged that can otherwise not afford to relocate and pay upfront living expenses while working unpaid.
Whether small, medium or large in size, organizations have been or are set to grapple with remote-based leadership issues. I believe there are some compelling reasons why this is going to snowball quite soon, and leaders will want to prepare themselves to augment or adapt new leadership styles as workers begin to work from anywhere.
In a job seekers' world that is heavily reliant on the Internet, a lack of digital access means a job seeker must jump through extra hurdles to access up-to-date job listings, career development information, free online classes and other content that can help them find jobs and advance their careers.

Fish schooling (as in similar to shoaling)
I have noticed an interesting trend that has been going on for a while but now I am pretty certain it is actually real.
I am talking about 5NL but I imagine same thing might be happening in other micro levels.
Lately I have been picking tables more carefully, when possible I like having 1-2 big losers on the table since that should be profitable for the rest of the players.
If the table is heavily populated by fish the following happens:
1. Blind stealing does not work
2. Cbets do not work
3. Isolating anyone does not work
4. Value betting does not work unless I am having a really good run of cards. The reason is that by the turn 2-3 fishes have seen 4 cards and all sorts of weird crap happens (straights, 2 pairs and sometimes sets) and it is not easy to survive until showdown unless I also have 2 pairs+ kind of hand (which doesn't happen that much).
5. Exotic coolers are pretty frequent
6. I win a few big pots with best hands (even stacks) but I am constantly bleeding money when on the turn I have overcards or some weak one pair hand (lets say I raised Axs or QJs from BTN) and have to give up.
Basically there is a very strong trend that I am heavily losing in sessions where I see a massive drop in steal success and cbet success (both decent money makers) because I am playing these tables. I am winning in all other types of situations.
It is actually much more profitable for me to play vs. other TAGs and nits with occasional fish thrown in than vs. massed (schooled (TM) ) fish.
I can steal blinds from the tighter players and isolate fish in right situations.
This goes against common logic, but that is how it is
Just to give you a clue about this effect in practice:
My overall average stats:
steal % = 44% (yes this is a bit high but against good targets it works enough)
steal success = 60%
cbet success = 41%
Against fish schools (approximate stats):
steal % = 24-34% (I have to reduce ranges a lot)
steal success = 28-38% (yup)
cbet success = 22-33% (yup)
So, am I doing something wrong here strategically with standard play or is this actually how it is and these tables are best avoided?
I want to say that I am doing better lately and if I could only solve this issue I would be a comfortable winner. It is paradoxical that massed fish are proving unbeatable for me while I can handle better players
It's funny because I have come to exactly the same conclusion lately.
In my case it also corresponds to the time of day/day of the week that I play. People always advise that we play on evenings and weekends to take advantage of the fish. Paradoxically, my biggest losing sessions are in the late evening and at weekends when all the drunk fish come out. Yes, I sometimes win big pots but a lot of the time I lose to fish cracking my AA aipf with rags or chasing draws with terrible odds and hitting their 2 or 3 outers on the river. I do much better when playing in the mornings on a weekday against bad regs and the occasional fish.
Makes no sense to me and I realise it's a huge leak in my game that I can't beat a bunch of droolers. Things work out well when I'm running good but when I'm running bad I lose all my previous winnings and am back to square one So no answers for you here I'm afraid but I feel your pain!
Post some hand histories where you still have 4 fish in by the turn. Then I'll tell you what you did wrong.
For right now I'll give you some general advice -
1) Don't steal so wide
2) Stop C-betting them with air
3) Only isolate broadways
4) Value bet properly
5) Tough luck
6) Don't ****ing C-bet then
Give us 5 or 6 good hands like the ones you are describing.
re: Poker & Fish schooling (as in similar to shoaling)
I can't do the hand histories due to the whole FT hand export issue, besides it would only show loads of medium loss hands which go:
1) PFR with a pocket pair or AQ+ or in CO/BTN ATs+/KQ or in BTN with all that and suited Broadways and Ax/Ksx if I am trying to steal
2) Flop missed or a one pair hand hit but not TPTK
3) Cbet fail
4) Turn check behind or c/f (if OOP) or fold if fired into. The reason is that most of these guys have extremely low turn fold to cbet stats (single digits or even 0%),
5) River c/c or c/f, most of the time one pair is no good since someone has hit something better.
Cafeman - I would really really LOVE to see how you would play these tables. If you have account on FT we might arrange it? I will tell you which tables are the problem ones and then I can watch you own them mercilessly.
If not, then I can try making a movie of my play and then everybody can comment.
This is a bit uncomfortable for me since I would be posting other people on the Internet while presenting them as bad players (in my opinion) and that might be a bit rude.
Scottish, if I don't cbet ever unless I hit heavily it is unprofitable to even raise preflop, isn't it? I can nit it up of course if that is the only possible solution but preflop losses are pretty big that way and premium hands get coolered enough times to make the few big wins around break even in total. I tried that approach at first too.
"Value bet properly" means "bet only TPTK+"?
banshee - Thanks for the comments, your strategy seems sound but I couldn't get it to work when I tried. I might give it another go though, something has to work here.
honeycrush - Exactly if I can't defeat these tables, I have no business going further up in stakes.
If you want to play TAG's or nits, try Carbon 4NL.
Players on sites that are difficult to deposit/withdraw from
means the majority of people there are "enthusiasts".
Do you multitable? I get in trouble with "boredom" tilt sometimes
and start playing junk OOP. Maybe playing more than one table can help even things out...
Make a video. Then we will be able to tell you what is going wrong. Honestly I'm a horrible player and yet I can find some success at these stakes, and from what I understand FT has weaker competition than stars.
Value bet properly = betting when your opponents range is weighted towards worse. If I have MPTK on a wet board BTN vs BB against a fish I'm auto firing two barrels for value. So no. It doesn't automatically mean TP or better, every scenario is different.
Seriously just post a video. Or get a sweat if possible.
Dame thanks alot I was in a mental jam ready to retire from online poker. Granted Im learning still I thought it was the site but your right if fish and good players alike wont fold and are willing to play more hands its much harder to put value on our hands or bluff its a different game for sure. More cautuon is needed! Im goneing to switch my play big time I will have to play as Im playing pros at times and pick my spots to make a move more carefully. THANKS ALOT FOR OPENING MY EYES. I WENT CRAZE LOSEING A SHIT LOAD OF MONEY. GOOD FEEDBACK FROM OTHERS AS WELL. THANKS
SM - Problem is that I find it hard to define ranges of 40/10 players (ATCs basically), especially those who fold to cbet 35-50% on flop and 0-10% on the turn. Two of these at the same time in a hand and it is a freaking nightmare as far as ranges go. There are quite a few who have fold to cbet 60/0 (flop/turn) and if they don't fold I am obliged to give up if not having a real hand... if I try pot control they often start attacking with overbets and such (which is great if I can trap them but usually I gotta fold).
re: Poker & Fish schooling (as in similar to shoaling)
You have to adjust!
If c-bets don't work because villains simply dont fold to c-bets, then don't bluff c-bet, only value c-bet.
Check the HUD. If villains "fold to flop c-bet" is 10% but "fold to turn c-bet" is 80%, then double barrel him.
If pots always go multi-way because nobody is folding, play hands like suited connectors and suited broadways and avoid playing stuff like weak Ax even from late position - play hands that work multiway well and, yes, overcalling and sometimes limping with hands like 78s is ok if the table is passive. Raise biiiig with premium hands.
The whole value from playing micro-stakes comes from adjusting to your opponents. Most of the time you will loose many small pots that you just have to give up to never-folding-fish and win a seldom, but huuge pot when you hit hard. As I understand (not from experience), adjusting to every detail in higher stakes is the only way to win.
Why do you feel obliged to give up? You should never commit any chips postflop unless you can valuetown their ass. You may be getting attached to your hand too much. Understand that AKo on JsTs2d isn't worth a ****ing cent vs these droolers. I X/F plenty, but I get enough value to make up for it.
I do have fold to cbet flop/turn on the HUD and I use it well enough except vs these persistent guys. I can stack them with a set+ almost every time (except when coolered) but I also get a lot of medium sized losses via turn/river folds and preflop losses (can't steal enough to compensate for the blinds in pure preflop play). Overall I find it hard to get ahead unless cards are on my side and that evens up over time.
Basically the optimal way would be to just avoid these tables and play "average" tables and win, but I feel this is crucial topic for me if I want to improve.
SM - I have to give up the hand since I found that being aggro with just a pair is pretty bad usually vs multiple fish. They are not complete idiots, meaning they can estimate my range well enough and potential sets don't scare them (I get the feeling they just assume I have a pair every time).
re: Poker & Fish schooling (as in similar to shoaling)
Change it up
This* I tighten up against fishy tables and mainly set mine and bet premium hands big preflop. Its definately a whole different game. ** Low pockets are instantly folded unless cheap and the table is predictable. Besides that even going to get a pepsi can ruin your rythme it seems for bad investments.
So i guess a plus 1 is in order
there is alot of fuss going on lately about 5 NL. I made a thread not too long ago asking if 5NL is harder than 10NL.
Ipersonally believe it is no matter what anyone says due to the fact that that is what my own experience tells me. Maybe for others 5NL is easier. for me its not.
Imade more money in 10NL than i ever could dream of at 5NL where i was breakeven at best.
These little calling station,fishy,bad calling donks at 5 NL are unbeatable. Noone can beat this limit.
Id be interested in seeing a screenshot of a 5NL winner over a large amount of hands played. like more than 15bb/100,if its that easy.
Wish I had some advice for you here but I don't. Just wanted to mention a thread I saw here a couple months back; I don't recall the exact site but it basically said that the site in question was rating or categorizing players according to their style and habits, then selectively displaying open tables to them in an effort to corral certain types of players together in an effort to drive up the amount of rake generated off each table per hour.
Maybe something similar is happening here? I've often wondered about this lately since I've been suffering at lower levels myself. Also it seems to go hand in hand that I withdraw from a given site then suffer a few weeks of horrid hands and suckouts. It takes everything just to stay even in those weeks.
confirmed no money at 5nl, everyone's solid
Just my opinion but I think that you are trying to make moves on calling stations. Don't bother. Just play abc poker. You know they aren't going to fold. Grab some AA KK or QQ and take them to value town. Same thing with AK AQ and even KQ. Play suited connectors and when you hit the flop hard, punish these fish. just because you see ivey shove all in with 25o, doesn't mean you should. Play more than one table if trying to fight off boredom. By all means don't try and get tricky with them. Play solid abc poker and punish them. Once they start respecting your post flop bets, then c-bet sparingly but mainly just play what I call catch and smash poker. Catch a great hand and smash'em to bits.
Either you are running bad, or you have strong sense of entitlement to the pot when you hit tptk and will not fold like what the baluga theorem says you should when reraised.
When a player obviously plays unbalanced like fishes with their calls, there's no way they are unexploitable.
More Variance is there yes, it's the nature of their plays style, they call with improper odds and gamble a lot, and it does get paid off fairly often. Do you know that on the flop, your tptk has a 20 percent chance of being eventually busted by a hand that hit 2nd or 3rd pair on the pot by the river. Your edge is a lot smaller than you think, but it's definitely there.
Btw, your thread pretty much says calling is the nuts which has been accepted as the most difficult action to take profitably preriver for the longest time.
They are NOT impossible. Frustrating at times yes because they can show up with 42o and hammer you with a straight but it is definitely not impossible.
Playing OOP against many of them (lets say if I am in MP) is insanely hard even 1 on 1 since some of them autobet small (1/4 to 1/3 of pot usually) if checked to and pretty much always call when bet into (especially turn is called almost always). Only on the river they jam with the nuts, otherwise they just call unless they really missed whatever they chased.
Others overbet every check. In either case they are consistent as far as sizing goes.
As for turn raises, it depends on the player but yes TP is not great holding usually.

Well, it's not my favorite, but when I read in the profile that someone named the heroine of their book series Demelza I could totally see her: a quirky but confident girl.Names I enjoy:

I love Demelza! I've never considered it unusable at all, but maybe it depends on where you are. Here in the UK I actually know a Demelza, plus the hugely successful Poldark books/series has made it much more familiar. It has great nn options (I love Elza the best, I think), a great literary reference, and - in my opinion - a beautiful sound. Also, it's the name of a hamlet in beautiful Cornwall.Celia Constance ☩ Viola Hermione ☩ Demelza KatherineJago Cillian ☩ Caspian Francis ☩ Raphael Richard

Gallery Madonna: The Obsession
Join Heart's Steve Denyer this Sunday from 7pm for a special look at the Queen of Pop herself - the one and only Madonna…
Madonna and her current flame Brahim Zaibat reportedly went to the Osteria Cotta restaurant in New York City on Saturday night to enjoy a romantic dinner.
However, the pair caused a stir when they pulled out their own wine and glasses.
'[Madonna] brought her own red wine in a bag, along with two beautiful crystal glasses. They poured the wine and immediately put the bottle back in the bag, so nobody could see what it was,' It was reported. 'At the end, they took the empty wine bottle and the glasses with them. We couldn't figure out if Madonna prefers specific wine, or is a total germaphobe.'
Brahim picked up the bill at the end of their meal, according to onlookers. He was also told to "tip well" by Madonna.
Madonna's representative didn't respond to reports that she'd brought her own alcohol to the restaurant.

Snatching Defeat From The Jaws of Victory.
The following piece is written by Joe Fiorentino, BoltHype's newest blogger:
I've gotta hand it to this Charger offense. Just when you think they actually have something going, somebody on the O says "WE WILL HAVE NONE OF THAT SHIT!" and pull the rug out from under themselves. Bravo. Bravo Rivers for another game with 2 INT's. I was seriously disappointed when you didn't get that 3rd pick. Hey, step it up a bit next time and put some touch on that pass to make it easier on the defenders. I guess I just can't be satisfied with nothing less than imperfection. I really did enjoy what they did on offense. Too bad for that pass interference call that allowed us to score. I was really hoping we would stall again on the drive or have Nate miss a FG. I guess it's just something they'll have to continue to "work on".
You know that old saying, "The more that things change, the more they stay the same"? That pretty much applies to this Chargers D. While we finally saw some different looks, blitz packages, and (OMFG!!!) STUNTS???? By the second half, we went back to the same ol' looks of games passed where we were dinked and dunked to death and TE's whom of which we will never hear of again own every square inch of field 5-8 yds beyond the LOS. Cromartie, could you please try and play with a little less enthusiasm? I mean, really. You almost kept Holmes from getting out of bounds at the end of the first half. Good thing you're a shitty tackler, otherwise he would have stayed in bounds, time would have ran out, and they wouldn't have got that field goal. WHEW!!!! That was a close one! By all means Rivera, when you watch film and see this beautiful play by Cromartie, or when you see him just stand there while the rest of the team is trying to make a tackle, or when you see him try "really extra specially hard" to cover a receiver, by all means, keep the guy in there. I think our defense needs to stay on the field for as much of the game as possible. So for passing downs, please, keep in Cromartie and Stephen "Wheels" Cooper. It's the least you can do.
The San Diego Chargers. Like getting ready to bang a hot chick, but BANG!! Grandma pops in your head.

LT only 57 yards rushing, but got the only TD, what the heck is going on? regardless of that one fumble, they need to give Hester a fair chance, last two games Sproles has done nothing, I remember his first year he also fumbled. defence finaly looked good and then the Rivers crew went flat. WHAT THE HECK
The Chargers have been making tight ends look like world beaters for years now. unfortunately, we've had shitty safeties for years as well...
Yea Cromartie is pissing me off, its like the dude is afraid to hit somebody. I duck my head when I see him go for a tackle because i'm half expecting Cro to injure himself.
yep they cant tackle very good at all, Igor and Castillo aint doing to much at all, Willhem sucks, and Phillips has maybe one sack? and we get 10 stinking points? they got to pick it up.
Don't get me wrong, it pisses me off (I break shit) seeing the Bolts screw the pooch. That having been said, shut up already. You sound like a whiny b!+c#. You are not smarter than A.J. and/or Norv (well,...maybe Norv, but you know what I'm gettin' at). The D actually played a good game against a pretty good Steelers team. They actually did enough to win. The offense was offensive but what are you gonna' do. Do you want to replace Rivers and put in Bob Gagliano, or Babe Laufenberg, or maybe Mark Vlasik? Philip picked a bad day to make poor decisions. This squad is decent and we gotta get after it with the guys we have in place. L.T. gets bottled up because that's what teams game plan for. It's no secret that Philip is playing well (overall) because of it, but when the kid throws 3 tds, the D has been giving up 4. Sure we could all complain about what Marty would have done, well howzabout this,...catch a plane to Raleigh and tell Marty to come back. Wait outside of his house like that girl they found outside of Paula Abdul's house. PLEASE.
These are the guys wearing Bolts, and hopefully they can start to play well in all 3 phases at once, and maybe,...just maybe, this window will keep from shutting in the next 15 months. If you want to jump ship, do it. I grew up in Jack Murphy Stadium watching with 15 thousand empty orange seats, I can do it again.
- Joe Fiorentino said... Nov 19, 2008, 2:57:00 PM
Who's complaining about what Marty would have done? I was glad the day he got fired. And I'm still glad.
308 yards passing, 124 rushing and a Pitt TOP of 36:31 and you're telling me that the D did a good job. Comedy.
what did I tell you about Hester, given a fair chance he will prove what he can do, he is faster and has better moves than tolbert, and hes tuff.

Class Warfare: In a popular book about a dreary subject, a French economist says inequality in the United States has reached "spectacular" levels. But the only thing spectacular is his version of the truth.
Thomas Piketty admits that he wrote his book to make the case for higher taxes on wealth and incomes of the rich. That should be a tip-off this isn't a scholar's dispassionate look at inequality, but an ideological argument.
Even so, Piketty has garnered much attention for his 685-page tome, "Capital in the 21st Century," filled with statistics, data and obscure arguments all pointing to the need to tax success at a much higher rate. As you might imagine, there are big problems with this.
The Financial Times of London went through the evidence offered by Piketty with a fine-tooth comb and found it lacking, to say the least. In some cases, for example, it looks like he made up data. In others, data seem to have been selected based on whether they bolstered his case or not. The numbers look cooked.
"There are transcription errors from the original sources and incorrect formulas," the FT noticed. "It also appears that some of the data are cherry-picked or constructed without an original source."
But the bigger problem is that just looking at the actual data on U.S. inequality — using what is called the Gini ratio, a measure of how incomes are dispersed across society — you can see Piketty's thesis is wrong.
As the chart below shows, contrary to claims by left-leaning economists such as Piketty, individual inequality hasn't changed at all since 1960. But there has been an increase in household inequality.
Why? As economist Don Boudreaux and the website Political Calculations have noted, the changing composition and size of households are the reason.
Households have shrunk markedly. Since 1960, the average size has plunged from more than 3.4 persons to about 2.55, Census data show. One-person households have nearly quintupled since 1960 and today make up nearly 30% of all households.
When charted, the household Gini ratio looks as if there is growing inequality. But in fact it shows that households are smaller, with fewer earners.
Our point is that using tendentious data to bolster a case for taking even more private-sector output for government use is dishonest at best.
There is no inequality crisis, and Americans would be wise to ignore the Pied Pipers of inequality who divide us by whipping up envy and greed.

An easy, really fun day trip for bay area residents.Explore two caves, a reservoir, and a myriad of wildlife.The scenery is epic and truly shines at dusk and dawn.A great winter hike, as the summer months can get hot.
It's hard to believe how many people don't know about this place, which was newly designated as a National Park in January 2013. Pinnacles National Park is hidden just south of San Jose in the Gabilan Mountains, and is a short drive for anyone living in the Bay Area.
With beautiful rock spires piercing the horizon, huge boulders, inviting caves, light crowds, and endangered California condors floating high above, Pinnacles National Park gives off a very spiritual vibe. There are thirteen well-maintained hiking trails that weave across the park's 26,000 acres.
There are multiple hiking options, depending on the amount of time you have and the level of difficulty you're looking for. My favorite 4-5 hour hike is the Bear Gulch to High Peaks trail, a 6.7-mile loop that allows you to hit a lot of the park's highlights. This is easiest accessed via the park's East Entrance. You'll begin by exploring the Bear Gulch caves (you'll need your headlamp/flashlight), then up to the reservoir, and finally to the Steep and Narrow route to the High Peaks. The Steep and Narrow route includes some steep and semi-challenging hiking, as well as a bit of scrambling, but the views from the top are simply amazing.
Parking is $5/vehicle for day use, paid at the visitor center. The west entrance is open from 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. The east entrance is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. 831-389-4486.
Be sure to dress in layers – it can be warm on the trail and cool in the caves. If you have hiking boots, I would recommend using them. Bring plenty of water.
Pack List
- Sturdy hiking shoes
- A headlamp or flashlight for the caves
- Layers for the caves
- Lots of water
- Camera

Great trails at Pinnacles
Pinnacles National Park in Central California is a fantastic place for outdoor fun and adventure if you love hiking, climbing or even photography. Here are some of my favorite highlights on where I visited, hiked and photographed this spectacular park http://travelphotodiscovery.com/travel-photo-postcard-pinnacles-national-park/ Enjoy the park

Pinnacles Into the Wild Trip
We took a group of 15 students to Pinnacles this past weekend. March is Condor "mating season" so we got to see many of these spectacular birds. Get there early - the parking lot near the trail head was full before noon, so the national park was shuttling people back and forth (and the line was quite lengthy). The caves were also closed due to flooding from recent rains - be sure to check the website before you go!

A Awe Inspiring place!
Pinnacles is a place you could spend months on end at. Although nature tends to be that way. I have spent some time in Pinnacles National Park. From sunrise to sunset and every inch of Park property is worth exploring!

Great Hike If Starting Early
I just did this hike today- it was beautiful. We took bear gulch to high Peaks trail. The views were incredible. The hike itself was moderate and occasionally strenuous. Some areas along this hike require you to stoop,bend,twist, and or climb a bit so be prepared. We arrived at the park at 0830 and people were already filling in. By the time we left (13:30 ) there was a line of cars trying to get in, and the park rangers were controlling the flow of traffic. This is Easter weekend though but I'm sure in peak season this is frequently the case. The only area of true congestion that we experienced was around the top of the Peak. There were lots of large, loud, obnoxious groups but the rest of the hike was moderately private. Animal life was great! Some lizards scuffled around but the Condors were incredible! They are massive and great to watch. This hike is worth the drive,worth the weekend crowd, and worth waking up early for. Total time for our hike with a group of four on this loop with stopping and exploring and taking photos was 4HR25min

One of my favorite places. Did not bring any climbing gear but will be ready for next time. Get there early and spend the day till dusk because the views are worth it!

A Different Side California
There are many different trails of varying difficulty allowing you to choose how much effort you want to put in. But even the most moderate of trails offer adventure and great views. It's hard to not feel connected with the terrain as you pass through caves, over hanging rocks and ridge lines. The size of it all just takes your breath away. A must see!

Great climbing and hiking
Another hidden gem close to the Bay Area! If you are a climber there are few outdoor spots close to SF that compare to this. Also the hiking is incredible with endless views. Keep your eyes out for Condors!

Great climbing here, too. Bring a helmet, though. It can be pretty chossy!

Make sure to leave before nightfall. We had a rough encounter with a local gang when heading out toward the 101.
