Mixed-Games MTTs on PS
Hello fellows
After a longer break, i will get back into Poker during these holidays.
Starting with 200$ and aggressive BRM of roughly 5$ avg bi. I will get gradually more conservative, as the bankroll grows.
Expect to be able to grind up to 55$ games before 2024 ends, and shot-take 109$s in 2025.
Goal is 3 sessions of at least 8 games on at least 3 days per week, for the whole year of 2024.
Didnt get the last double up deep in 33 to 530, same in 11 to 109 PLO. Also busted some bullets in other sats and day-savers.
Made second in small 5.50$ PLO hyper to reduce the damage.
Ended session early again, but will fire one last game in 3 hours, the 5.50$ to 55$ NLO8 hyper KOmania. Have a feeling that i'll get into that one today.
Bankroll = 5877$
Feeling a bit tired of the grind atm, and likely just reg games from 18 to 20 o'clock tomorrow.
Partly has to do with switching from energy drinks to drinking green and black tea only, i guess. But i'll soon get used to that.
Really hope that the SCOOP schedule will be announced soon, so that i can calculate how much i'll roughly have to invest.
SCOOP schedule is out now 😀
Looking very good for me, with many/most events being 11/109/1050$, which means i dont have to satellite into those low events.
And ofc being able to use max bullets is worth a lot in every low event, especially the knockouts.
There are several days with two or even three non-nlhe events, but all comfortably between 17:30 and 19:30 CET, if they arent turbo, with few exceptions.
Means, i can basically keep grinding the same hours as usual during the series.
Really hope that there will be some multi-step micro satellites, or at least an 11$ rebuy to all those 215$-1050$ events.
For some variants like Stud8 and PLO hi, same as for horse and 8game mix, i will likely fire max bullets, even if there are more satellites per event.
Buy ins for satellites to other variants in that buy-in range will heavily depend on how i run, and how i feel.
Sadly, there is no PLO or 8game highroller, "only" the 5200$ PLO main event...
But i expect to see many multi-steps micro-satellites to that one, and will surely fire those like there is no tomorrow, no matter if im up or down, at the end of the series.
Cant wait!

Been studying PLO8 and NLO8 for quite a bit now, feeling way better playing turns and rivers, and will add a few more of those into my schedule again, when i dont feel like only playing a short session.
Now i'll invest an hour per day to work on my PLO 5card skills - mostly just watching YouTube videos - and soon add an 11$ pko day-saver of it to my daily schedule.
That one can fill a gap in between peak hours and late Omaha8 MTTs, whenever i dont have any big ones left.
Hi man! I want to apologises my behauviour yesterday on tables. I was extremely tilted on tables and facing suckouts from left and right.
Im sorry. -sonikki
No prob, appology accepted.
On saturdays with 75% bounties, i even insult pure fun players regularly, which is way worse than reg-wars in chat...
Today, i drank vodca n energy, to forget about the good taste of Energy Drinks...
It worked out well... The alcoholic pothead shipped the 11$ 8game again, for ooooone huuuundred aaaand eeeeightyyy...
Etc
Bankroll = 5868$
Ended session early again to go out.
Drink magnesium before bed, and be good to my road
Yeah,... Enough of all the bull**** now.
All Business from now on.
No more caffeine and alcohol at home until SCOOP ended.
Daily walks in the forest, short sessions during the week, and no more sushi and Burgers.
Eating more berries, veggies and Steaks
Meditate daily
Thinking of things i appreciate in my life, while taking cold showers
Pregnant my ex instead of watching porn
Never spazz in a day saver
Maybe read a book
Kill Andrew Tate
Just kidding
Why no more caffeine?
Tea and dark chocolate have theain or so, which acts like caffeine, but with slower release, and no crash afterwards.
If you like coffee or energy drinks, you should at least wait 60-90 minutes after waking up, before having the first one, and get at least 5-10 minutes of actual day-light before... Helps with better sleep at night, and you avoid crashing, due to some adenosin, melatonin and whateves else your body and mind prefers to be served like that... to function well.
Lost heads up for ticket to 109$ 5card PLO KOmania, and 8game satellite got cancelled, but i won both sats to 109$ PLO KOmania.
Been chipleader in that one for a while, but busted without any bounties after missing every flop when bounty hunting, which you sometimes cant avoid, when its 75% bounties.
Got some decent bounties in the day savers, though.
Played only 4 hours, then took a 2 hours break, before losing 80 bucks in a turbo and hyper session, over an hour.
Ended the day being up 2$.
Taking a long hot shower now, and make a nice ribeye steak with broccoli afterwards.
Bankroll = 5870$
Looking forward to the horse and 8game tournaments tomorrow.
Will be playing some basketball before the session, which i didnt do this whole year, so far.
Very very bad day. Many bubbles, a lot of suckouts, and two times i went from 5bb or less to chipleader, only to bust both times in very mad hands...
Even in the few day-savers, i couldnt get anything going, at all.
Only playing 11$ NLO8 hyper to 109$ NLO8 hyper KOmania in 90 minutes, and then im done.
Bankroll = 5532$
Definitely taking tomorrow off, and likely only play 4 satellites on tuesday.
It was about time for a big losing day again, i guess... Good reason to take some time off.
Lost more than two hundred more on sunday, starting today with roughly 5300$.
Instead of keep banging max bullets to 109$ and 530$ PLO events as i used to do, i will just use one entry per satellite to those, and skip some of them when i have deep runs in other games.
I'll prefer to play more satellites to daily Omaha and Mixed events from 22$ to 55$ - all games, which i could afford to play directly by now - and will also add at least one bullet in the 11$ to 109$ nlhe power path sats, in hopes of shipping a silver pass in the 109$ event.
Silver pass would mean one 530$ SCOOP ticket, and several 215$, 109$, 55$ etc for ~2.2k total, potentionaly saving me much energy during SCOOP days, where i could skip many early satellites.
But i will also add some more micro day savers, like the reg speed 7.50$ 5card PLO and a 7.50$ turbo NLO8 after peak hours.
Starting in two hours, ready to fight again.
I did some calm thinking about how to proceed.
I won the 109$ PLO KOmania twice, once on a saturday, and another one on a sunday. I also shipped the 55$ 8game, and twice cashed a 530$ PLO within the last 5 weeks, all from 11$ or lower satellites.
Spun up 20 bucks to slightly +6k, in games with tiny field-sizes...
From now on, until SCOOP starts, i will skip ALL satellites, except the 11$ to 109$ powerpath nlhe, to win a silver pass for ~2.3k SCOOP ticket bundle.
Means, i basically just grind up to 11$ MTTs for 3 weeks.
Like this, im +90% sure that i'll have more than $5k when SCOOP starts, and also have a good chance to win a 2.3k silver pass for many big tickets until then, if i invest ~22$ per playing day...
It wouldnt make any sense to keep risking about 300$ daily, chasing a period like last 30 days - which is hard to top - when i can simply grind low for 3 weeks, and then easily get five times more value for every shot that i take.
This will help me to take more days off, play more variants that i usually dont play - training for SCOOP - and allowe me to focus on every important hand, when just playing 2-3 tables.
Also giving room to cheaply experience more possible run bad...
But dont get me wrong... As soon as SCOOP starts, i will fire everything under the sun, including the daily schedule, again, not slowing down at all, except when i drop below 2200$ bankroll.
I'll do the next update when i won a tournament, or otherwise on sunday.
See you later, folks
You've been crushing since you started this blog. It was bound to happen a bad streak. Keep yor head in the game.
Oh well, yea...thx
Only skipped all 11$ satellites, but played all the others.
Shipped the 11$ 8game again for about 140$, iirc, but ended the day down 120$.
Bubbled vs naked gutshot, missed every 3bet pot, plus some classic runner runner stuff again... Early big stacks diminished on every bullet
Still played well until the end, so whatevs
Bankroll= 4886$
Tomorrow is another day. Likely gonna play roughly the same session from 15:00 to 20:00 only, again.
Added three turbos and hypers, got into 55$ NLO8 and busted...
But then i shipped the crazy 11$+R PLO 4max turbo for 213$, and solid 50$ profit for the day.
Bankroll = 5050$
Bankroll = 4503$ and a ****ing 109$ ticket
I am not concerned
I will fire more than 500$ again tomorrow, and much more than that on sunday.
And if i bust everything, i pay out 3000€ to play live, simple as that!
Started carnivore diet today, and feel great.
Tomorrow, those inbred monkeys will get raped without vaseline, cause there'll be no more ****ing one and two outters all day
That's the spirit!
Got into 55$ PLO KOmania and 215$ Lex Event, but busted both.
At the end of the day, i got into the 109$ cooldown and 55$ NLO8 hyper KOmania where i made min-cash plus bounties, and 3rd plus bounties...
KK couldnt hold vs naked JTs flushdraw for freaking chiplead pot on bubble of cooldown...
Very frustrating...
Busted 109$ powerpath ticket running AQs into KK when trying to ISO a shorty, already being pretty deep...but won a new ticket before.
Solid 300$ profit today.
Time for a long warm shower, after i did some housework.
Bankroll = 4802$ plus a 109$ powerpath ticket
Intend to ship a PLO KOmania with 75% bounties again tomorrow, after a long walk in the forest and to the grocery store, and a huge steak with eggs.
12 hours session...
Looked like i win four of four satellites to the big omaha and mixed events at the same time during peak hours, but ended up losing all of them within less than 20 minutes, two on stone bubble.
Then i won a 1400bb pot in 11$ PLO KOmania soon after, but had to rebuy half an hour later...
Simply lost three 40-75%er that i shoved on the flop to "surely" get the big bounties...
I know it sounds silly, but somehow i hit every clubs nutflushdraw, but never hit with hearts, since a while
Went deep in 109$ powerpath, just to run TT into KK aaand AA.... Never win those spots, like i always see others do, hahaha
Resorted to more holdem, and first made 6th of more than 700 in the 11$ nlhe hu total ko for nearly 200$, and then made 7th in 44$ hot hyper pko for a bit more than 200$, iirc.
Got unlucky on good 3barrel bluff in the heads up, where villain hit his overcard on the river. Been overdoing it slightly with the bluffing...
I also shoved K8 from ep at the 44$ hyper final table, like an idiot, with solid 12bb left... Would have been chipleader if i won, though...
If i wouldnt have pushed so hard at the end of those two, it could have been a nice winning day...
Like this, i ended the day down about 175$.
Bankroll = 4626$ and no new ticket...
I feel like i have a lot more energy with the new diet, and without any alcohol or actual caffeine.
That'll be very important tomorrow, because multitabling mixed is a lot tougher than PLO or NLHE.
I will cut out all PLO8 games from now on, because those nits in them drive me mad. Only playing that game during SCOOP, when its soft and big.
Cant wait to start in an hour.
Will be playing 30 satellites today, and actually hope to NOT be able to play the 11$ 8game and PLO KOmania day-savers, because that'd mean that i'm in three or four big events already.
Sunday madness will once again make or break the results for the week, and i dont think my bubbling of satellites will continue today.
Good luck to all of you on this sunday grind!
Lets crush harder than a school girl on a Backstreet Boy... Lol i'm old
Likely end the day early, only one sunday milly sat, and 11$ PLO KOmania as chipleader.
Got into 33$, 55$ and 82$ to 530$ PLO, and busted all of them semi close as a favourite...
Then i got into 109$ 8game, just to lose vs some of the wirst hi lo players there are.
Going out to visit a friend, as soon as i bust the last games.
Bankroll = 4510$
Holly fuarkn sheetballs...
Im in the 1050$ monday 6max highroller.
And the 55$ 8game.
Aaaaahhhhhhh....lose JJ vs TT for 120bb Pot...fml
Also busted 109$ hot pko and 55$ NLO8 hyper KOmania.
Lost another TT vs 77 aipf in the 109, just cant catch a break, losing every freakin higher pair, like 80% means nothing anymore. Had easily half a dozen more of those in satellites...
Bankroll = 4293$
530$ PLO super tuesday tomorrow.
Maybe that one will get me back into the groove.
If i dont score something nice tomorrow, i will take wednesday off, and maybe take most holdem out of my schedule again, despite great success in the satellites.
Losing those tens vs jacks all in preflop in the 1k really made me sad
^^Jacks lost vs tens, ofc. Otherwise No reason to complain...
Also forgot to mention that i shipped the 7,50$ Omania for 170$ yesterday...
Today will be the last day of firing crazy amounts of nlhe satellites, even if i win big in one of them.
Trying to get into 1050$ super tuesday nlhe, aside of the 530$ PLO super tuesday.
From tomorrow on, i will only play NLHE games like 11$ to 109$ powerpath for SCOOP tickets, or maybe a 11$ big or hot, and the only satellites to NLHE targets bigger than 11$ will be to the Fenomeno 109$, which starts at perfect time, and has perfect structure for my needs, with 8 minute blinds.
I like to play 15-40bb stacks in NLHE the most, hence why this semi-turbo suits me so well.
Ran super hot at the beginning, winning 3 of 4 satellites. 55$ to 1050$ super tuesday, 55$ to 530$ bounty highroller and 33$ to 530$ PLO.
Busted all of them, and was very amused when i twice lost AAxx vs KKxx with four left and two tickets to 530$...
Also busted 82$ to 530$ PLO, 55$ hot pko, and because that wasnt enough, i also busted the 215$ bountybuilder...
Got into events for a bit more than 500$, and lost it all
Bankroll = 3801$
From now on, i will skip the powerpath nlhe games, because i prefer to play the non-holdem satellites during SCOOP, which id do anyway - even if i had tickets - because they are so soft.
The only nlhe that i play will be the Fenomeno 11$, and one satellite to the 109$.
Its seriously time for a day-saver heavy schedule to rebuild the bankroll savely until SCOOP starts.
Not that i'll skip anything to PLO or Mixed events, but i'll likely skip most of the turbos and hypers after peak hours.
This was the harsh reality of satellite-heavy schedules, including nlhe... If you only get into a handfull of big events per day, you can run really bad for quite a long time, despite shipping "day-savers" aside of that.
