NL10 to NL100

Good Luck

Hey all, long time no see. A lot has changed since I last updated, but the goal is still to grind up and try to reach NL100. Some things that have changed is that I recently moved up to NL25 with the bankroll now at around $800 and I am only playing reg tables now instead of zoom.

For current goals they are similar to before:
- Play for 3-4 hours each day
- Study for at least one hour a day (theory, exploitative, mental game etc. mainly focusing on exploitative stuff for now)
- Become more comfortable and a reg at NL25 and get the bankroll to $2000 before shot-taking NL50

Here is my graph for the last week (really need to work on my red line)

And I'll try to keep this thread updated weekly from now on having just settled into a new house.

P.S if anyone playing similar stakes or in a similar spot to me wants to sweat or discuss hands and study I'd be up for it, just PM me here or add me on discord

Also how do I post hand histories on here?

Week 1/1.5 over so here is the graph for the week

Main thoughts are firstly volume was good, managed to play 3-4 hours every day. But red line is still down and very swingy which I guess is normal. Also I don't like to complain but it did feel like for a few days I ran like sh*t. I was not able to study as much as I wanted to this week it just feels like playing is more fun but I am travelling for half of next week so should be able to get some good study in.

Just one hand this week that I thought was interesting. I also need to get better at saving interesting hands but it is tough when multi-tabling.

Hand 1 (obvious bluff):
Hero (BTN): 101 BB
SB: 100 BB
BB: 88.28 BB
UTG: 16.32 BB
MP: 169.32 BB
CO: 94.24 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

River: (25 BB, 2 players) Q♣
