Recommend the poker bankroll tracker app for live poker to keep your numbers. You can update easily with a screenshot of your sessions(s)

thx, i used to use the poker income app or HEM/PT4/H2N for online
ill prob both update on tracker and post once in a while
but also keep the buy in counter on posts
idk if these tracker keep the raw buy in numbers or just $$ amounts
Played a bit this weekend
got unlucky on an FT bubble with JJ against AK was for all the chips, wouldve prob been another bink there
played abit of live cash, the venue had NL and PLO, got lucky and manage to get a guy to play some live HUPLO with me, i usually just call out the full ring PLO nit regs when table is breaking
we played abit and maybe broke even there before the guy didnt want to play anymore and quit
including the NL sesh we prob lost a tiny bit, like a third of a buy in or something or ill just round it to the closest buy in (kept the records on tracker)
Results so far: - one buy in
hand of the session #1
Spoiler
HU PLO
Open pot with A♣K♦7♣5x BTN, BB calls
flop A♦Q♦5♣
cbet 75% pot he calls
turn J♦
check check
river x
he bets 50% pot, we 4x his bet
I think tripling off can work too, but decide im gonna have some turn xb here with NF too, hes inelastic with his strong flushes so im not gonna choose a balanced raise size otr
Spoiler
he tank calls with second nut flush
hand of the session #2
Spoiler
HU PLO
Open Pot with 8732 single suited ♠s, they call
8♣4♣4
cbet 1/3 pot he calls
turn 8
he half pots into us we call
river T
he bets 3/4 or something
Spoiler
we call off and beat some missed FD/wrap or something, was probably his only bluff of the HU sessionÂ…
So its been a swingy week or so
fired 5 bullets into live MTTs and bricked
prob net down around 1.7 buy ins over four sessions of cash, although prob closer to breakeven since i won when it was higher stakes, i’ll round it up to down roughly 3 buy ins, was a shame because the last session i got hit for 5 buy ins in 5 hours, and it looked like i was close to digging out of a big hole, but lost JJ v 86s all in pre running it once to put the proverbial nail in the coffin for the session
Results so far: - three buy ins
Too many hands over the sessions to remember or particularly talk about
but i do think overall i stationed abit too much esp when the games got too wild and everyone gets abit too loose or too blasty, the calls i made may or may not be fine but its hard to tell under all that layer of variance
so at the very least i should prob try to lower the variance abit
here’s the hand that essentially summarised my week:
Spoiler
80bb eff 4 handed
we had some straddles going on so it was prob 80bb ish effective
SB completes, BB completes, I squeeze to 6.25bb with JJ on the straddle, BB backraises me to 25bb, we shove and get snapped off by 8♦6♦
Spoiler
run it once and lost as he hit two pair
another swingy week but we won a bunch back
up around 10.7 buy ins (~11 buy ins)
was still playing abit high variance this week, my regret for the week was running a limp raise with T♥9♥ that if i had played differently would’ve won me a six buy ins pot…
going to play some MTTs next week including some PLO ones which I’m looking forward to…
Results so far: + eight buy ins
heres a fun hand I remembered from last session:
Spoiler
200bb eff 7 handed
MP opens 2bb we 3bet A♥Q♥ to 6bb, he calls
flop K♠5♣3♣ (13.5bb)
we cbet 6bb he calls
turn 3♠ (25.5bb)
check check
river 6x (25.5bb)
he bets 32bb we call
Spoiler
He shows 55 for a full house
