Hi, I'm il Capitano. I'm from Argentina and I'm a poker player.

Whats the plan on doing it in 7 weeks? GL


Play a lot. I spent the last month really studying so I should have a decent understanding for micros.
First step is to win 15 buy-ins and move up to 5NL. I'll start with 5 hours of play a day.


1st day is in the books. Played 4 hours and a half.


Things were going great until this punt:

PokerStars - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 146.5 BB
SB: 120 BB
Hero (BB): 100 BB
UTG: 680.5 BB
MP: 100.5 BB
CO: 108 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A A

fold, fold, CO raises to 3 BB, BTN calls 3 BB, SB calls 2.5 BB, Hero raises to 15 BB, CO calls 12 BB, fold, SB calls 12 BB

Flop: (48 BB, 3 players) Q K T
SB checks, Hero bets 16.5 BB, fold, SB raises to 35 BB, Hero calls 18.5 BB

Turn: (118 BB, 2 players) 2
SB bets 70 BB and is all-in, Hero calls 50 BB and is all-in

River: (218 BB, 2 players) 8

SB shows Q Q (Three of a Kind, Queens)
(Pre 19%, Flop 79%, Turn 86%)
Hero shows A A (One Pair, Aces)
(Pre 81%, Flop 21%, Turn 14%)
SB wins 210.5 BB

Sucks to start the challenge on a break even day. I faced a ton of difficult spots in 3bet pots. See you tomorrow.


I took a big break after week 1. Now I started week 2. Here's the graph:


After I win 15 buy-ins I move up to 5NL.

Let's go!
