Now I am in NL2 with a sample of 30000 hands played I adjunt the Poker Traker my bb/100 is 5, 82 but with the all in adj is 7, 79, bad beats.

I want to play like 50k hands before I go up to NL5 ( I will update it).
Because I want to do the things well, before that sample I burn like 100€ going to NL25 to recover losses in NL2 and playing NL5.
I am going to adjunt the other graph of my sample:

That is with the Red Line (No Showdown Winnings), one of my objetives now is raise the Red Line playing more agressive.
Sorry if you don't undestand so clear my english, I'm Spanish.
I will be updating the post regularly, bye bye and Mery Christmas.
Congrats on starting 2NL with a decent win rate! Focus on fundamentals like solid preflop play and value betting against loose opponents. Stick to good bankroll management (30-50 buy-ins) to handle variance, and review your sessions to find leaks. Keep grinding, and the results will follow!
Thaks for your advice silent, i will be grinding
Good luck! I also started a micros challenge moving up. Over 110k hands I was winning 11BB/100 after rake for reference.
I don't know where you play, my volume was in GG R&C (zoom on PS), and I'd advise you to not focus too much on your red line. Slightly losing red line + heavy value betting & bluffing spots where your opponents are capped and wouldn't like to pile money in the pot is the way to go imo.
Other tips that I have is play against the fish, even though it's 2NL there are some regs who know the basics and aren't playing like brainless monkeys. Make your money in spots against weak opposition and don't punt vs regs.
Wherever you play rake is v high in the micros (esp in GG) so despite how soft the games might feel I think that it's crucial that one remains level-headed. When players are bad variance & standard deviation will increase slightly so embrace the swings and make sure that you experience winning streaks more often than losing ones.
Will be following!
Hello, good night. I play in 888 poker. Thank you for your advices. About the red line, I think mine is very looser and I do some changues the last 2-3k hands ( you can appreciate in the graph that the line is no lossing so heavely that before) I dont want a hyper possitive red line but loose de minimum posible.
One question GG is more competent than 888 poker? And in what stake are you?
I will updating the post, thanks for your feedback
Hi, Molly. Didn't see your reply. About your question, I haven't played in 888 so I can't really tell you. However, the field in GG is generally bad (the traffic is huge and more players in the pool means more regs, but nevertheless the regs are very bad in the micros). I started a challenge where I try to move up from 2NL R&C (fast-fold format), and am currently playing in 5NL, but in the past have played 25nl fast fold format winning 9bb/100.
Post some hands itt or in the strategy forums, watch some strategy content, there's multiple ways to improve.GLGLGL!
Hello, 9bb/100 NL25 is nice. About the regs yeah i think in NL2 are so bad
Hello there,
GL with the challenge, where you from in Spain?
From Valencia. Where are you from?
Hello I'm back to update. I don't play so much because christmast but I play some hands (7000 hands more) I adjunt the graph:

Now I play 36992 hands in NL2 zoom and my bb/100 is 7. My plan is play 50k hands and go up to NL5.
My objetive for this year is play NL25 or NL50 with a positive winrate.
I will update the post every sunday. I wait for your feedback
Hello other time, like is Sunday i am going to update the post, since last week i play 10k hands.
The graphs:


This week i run good but saturday and sunday not so good because i loose a lot of all ins and I have a lot of coolers and I lost like 6 buy-ins.
My bb/100 in zoom (that is the modality I play all the 46k) is 6.09 and my All-in Adj bb/100 is 7.5.
Now my objetives are:
Go for 50k hands sample the next week and move up to NL5 with a bank roll of 25 buy-ins
Improve the % of C-bet (now is 52%, I would like to raise to 60-70%)
I appreciate any advice that you want to give me.
Someone know how to change the name in TwoplusTwo?
I post next Sunday with the 50k hands and some hands in NL5,
bye bye boys
Hello I´m back again i going to actualice all, this weekend change a few.
First of all I go out of NL2 forever and this is how it ended (NL2 Snap``like zoom is Snap´´) :


I play a total of 50920 with a win rate of 6, 25bb/100 and with de All-in Adj is 7.00
And with that i decide to go up to NL5 nad i play regular tables no Snap because there isnt enough traffic in 888 Poker to play Snap, but I like the change in regular tables you can more easily eexploit the recreational and you can identify if he is on tilt or not, etc... in exchange for the volume that you can do in Snap.


This is how is going NL5, I dont play so much hands because de regular cash game volume and because I have been studing too. I have been playing good and my perception is that they are just as competitive or less so than in NL2 snap but I had bad runs.
See you next weekend hopely with a positive win rate. Bye Bye
Hello I know that isn´t Sunday but I have to say something about the changue to NL5 I notice i have been playing ranges so fucking wide like trying to exploit the villians but after preflop i fold to much because mi rnage is shit.
Evidences:
NL2 VPIP/PRF

A normals ones.
But the problem I think is that In NL5 i go crazy:

There are in the fucking moon, I will fix it
Okey I'm back i don't post since a month, idk why. To update I go to NL5 regular 5max Winamax because 888 hasn't fucking traffic, here are my graphs in winamax:


I'm down but I hope that go up, I was so down for 5 main reasons:
1: I was playing 5 tables (now i go to 4) and i dont takign the time to think the play to the hand
2: I wasn't playing enought explotatively and thinking to much the plan of the hand, thinking about taking value...etc (playing abit atomatiquely) I think i fix it and that why the last hands my no showdown was better and my blue line too.
3: Playing bad the flop. i was calling like the fucking 70% of thehands and folding 50% in turn and my red line was suffering because of that
4: I don't folding to much against big bet with a good hand, like a tight opponent go all in in 3 clubs draw me with J8 clubs call and the villian has an obiusly A8clubs. Things like that
5: I wasn't Cbeting Flop to much
I hope the next update i have at least a positve win rate. Good bye
