Bankroll challenge

Currently finishing off my exams, as of Wednesday im starting fresh on Pokerstars. I will be still playing on Coinpoker from time to time mainly HU. The idea still is to grind and move up in stakes to 10NL. This month of holidays I will be playing and studying for at least 10hs a day from Monday to Saturday. I´m looking to get into theory and analizing hands with someone else. I will be posting hands and graphs at least once a week and discussing and studying hands with whoever wants to. My new user in Pokerstars is LovelyLoonyXO.

Passed all my exams with flying colours. Now I have a month to grind on coinpoker and Pokerstars, the former has been giving problems with the deposit, so currently im 5 tabling 2nl and 3 tabling heads up 2 and 5nl. I would say that after a month of playing 5hs a week max this result is acceptable. Certainly Im working and reviewing hands which i plan on posting on this thread.

Good luck!

Thank you!

Been running hot lately, but somehow still get constantly coolered against maniacs. The main issue is building a stack and keeping it once I start dealing with hyper agressive gamblers on zoom and some regular tables.
Still trying to figure out a way to avoid big losses against random players wich show up with the most random 2 pairs and by the river.
Overall I feel my performance has been acceptable and thats good news for my bankroll which is around $85, split 25 on coinpoker and the rest in pokerstars.

Until Sunday I´ll try to play at least 20k hands and study at least 12 more hours of BTN vs BB.
I will keep this thread open and post some more graphs and hands in the following days.

Frist pic is the mont stats and second one the weekly update.
Running above EV for the first time this year, I have found 2 study partners and been reviewing a ton of hands and getting a feel for explits to particular player types, been responsible with the BR management and started taking 5nl shots in both Coinpoker and pokerstars and everything is going smoothly, currently finishing flop studying on BTN vs BB and starting SB vs BB. Even thoug wasnt a part of the planning of grinding 6-7 max only, been adding some heads up and 4-max to the mix against some particular whales in 5nl. Im very exited to keep up with the challenge and keep improving. Still massively stuggling with extreme agression and random players.

This weeks goals are to play 15k hands with at least 2k on 5nl, stick more to 6-max and try not to focus too much on isolating whales on 2nl to focus on developing my game. Start to study SB vs BB and grind the trainer on BTN vs BB to solidify the basics.

In the middle of the week or at some random time of this week will be updating hands and particular coments, pretty sure that Sundays will be the graph days.

Got back on GG and straight to 5nl and got destroyed, worst run bad of my life over 4700 hands, lost 7bb/100 and run a bit worse than that. But moved from there to RNC tables at 5nl and been doing good, reg tables are unbearable, full of gamblers and when varianve is not on my side I think is best to go against more rational players, which may be harder to win huge but at least allows me to improve and put to the test my knowledge. Played only 8k hands but studied a lot and reviewed lots of hands so overall a great week in that regard. Been playing almost exclusively 5nl on GG and Coinpoker and quickly adapting to the change in playerpool.

This coming week im starting class again and im already preparing a schedule for the upcoming months.

9-12hs+/ week of GTO study
3-4hs/ week hand reviewing with partner/s
15+hs/ week minimum of play

Averaging 5-7k hands a week for the semester is the goal and will keep the thread updated for any changes in the plan.

An old hand I found reviewing heads up with a friend, seemed cool, What you guys think???

Worst week of last 2 months, today being the worst of them all days (lost 5 buyins), didnt play my best and ended 4,5 buyins below EV. just been playing 5nl this week and up until today it was not so bad, have started class and been limiting my playing and studying time. Seems like playing after 4hs of sleep was not profit so will spend the rest of the day drilling in gto+ some BTN vs BB and SB vs BB and will sleep early to grind 12hs tomorrow. Not at all pleased with the final result but tomorrow night will upload the day results.

Current BR: 200 usd

Sorry for not posting here the last 2 weeks even though it was due, happened to have a terrible downswing in the stretch of a week which left me in the hole for USD 60, which was %35 of my bankroll at that time. Needless to way felt like absolute ****, couldnt win a hand, got rivered a better hand holding the nuts multiple hands and you guys know the trill. Regardless of mu emotional state I still hammered the table with all my will and never took a break and surprisingly my results didnt get better at all, just stagnation, made couple good playes and then got destroyed by some nonsense hand. Still managed to keep playing and today I feel proud to say that got out of the hole, still running below EV, but doesnt matter, because today my will imposed to all that bullshit.
