Deeepz: Moving up to 50NL and moving out in 2014 [6max]
Hello 2p2,
I decided to start a PGC thread for various reasons, being:
- keep motivated
- keep track of results
- accomplish my goals
- I like to share my story with you 😀
Maybe a lot of you guys see me posting in uNL frequently, but anyways here's my life so far (Warning: Wall of Text inc:

My persona:
I'm a 18 years old poker-obsessed kid who lives in Switzerland (Next to Germany, if you don't know 😉). I've been playing poker for almost a year now and I've put so much time in it (posting on 2p2, reading tons of books, playing obv etc.) so it's time for me to make a step.
I finished school in summer 2013 and I am currently doing a "gap year", which means taking a break from school, gathering experience in terms of working, moving out and getting ready for university in 2014.
My poker:
I've been a losing player for a long time, mainly due to my mental game but I managed (partly thanks to this forum) to turn the tide around and I'm winning maniez now, but that's just micros. Currently, I'm playing 10NL ZOOM and 10NL reg tables and I'm constantly making progress. I've always struggled moving up to 25NL because I tend to spazz out because I see so much money in the pot and want to have it. So that's mainly a mental issue aswell.
Anyways, here are some graphs:

I agree with KP, your BRM is a recipe for disaster! Playing with a more comfortable amount of buy ins will help your mental game and those 2 outers will be a lot less painful. Even for a proven winner at a limit 15 buy ins is still high risk. But....feel free to ignore everyone's advice and go busto 😃
Ignored everyone’s advice… but not busto
