I've been playing 1-2 , 2-4, and some 2-4 with mandatory straddle.
Let's go!

Gotta love those stacks of cash, that is definitely a great feeling to walk out with a ****ing cash stack. Nice mate keep it up!

Last month was the best o my life.
ULTRA CRAZY MONTH.
This month I played less live and I just dropped even, I made some bad decisions but I'm fixing them.
(I'll post the results for both months at the end of september)
Online volume is quite low.
I'm taking a short break to relax and study but I'm still playing online.

100 K year, here I come.

LET'S GO!!!

Love you guys

What up everyone
I want to post my results for the last 3 months:

I actualy made 23 K in August alone (played the whole month, evening and nights non-stop). I ran hot and got paid big on my value hands.
Then I played very much under my stantard A game and got a drop even September month (12 days of play)
This month I played 20 days (only night session- almost no evening sessions, I sleep for like 9 hours at least in this period), and I'm down 6.7 K , but again I played sub-par, I played in 5/10 PLO games in which i lost 2.7 K in 2 sessions alone, I also bluffed a knucklehead and got caught for a 1.3K pot.
Cool stories overall, I tell you some soon...
I'm relatively content with the result.

I'm giving myself 3 months for EXTREME IMPROVEMENT (BOOKS, COURSES, COACHES).
I'm contacting coaches too as we speak and trying to get a good deal.

But from the 15 of January until the 30th I will be playing 100 NL and I WILL BE GOOD ENOUGH TO BEAT IT FOR 4 BB'S+.
I will move up and up from there.
UPWARDS AND ONWARDS WE GO !!!

LET'S GO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went back for one day to take the leaderboard money.
I played 2-4 for 3 hours to and made 1 200 euro profit 😃😃😃
I 3 bet big one hand and got 2 callers .
Pot is 480 Flop A98:
I bet 180 then one guy 3 bets all in 500 euros and second guy calls 200 euros or so. I have AQ , in this particular case I had to call, shorter guy looks super weak (he's a fishy player). Big stack guy could have AK or set but I know him, he enjoys trying to push me around sometimes and also he could easily have worse here.
I call and flip my hand over ,the player next to me sais:
"He has a set"
Me: "He can have whatever he wants now"
turn and river come: 7 and 3 or something, and they both refuse to turn their hand over.

EZ win.

I'm also in talks for coaching.
I smell success in the air
😉😉

So last 3 months profit FINAL result : +18,7 K

Kind of funny that op thinks that someone actually believes this livepoker poop :p

Not to worry, I'll play nothing but online for like 6 months.
Just stay posted.

im in, gl

Guys is this a good winrate?

PS: I'm playing much less tables now while I improve, so I THINK about what I have to change in my game and actually CHANGE IT !

Anyway the two coaches I hired are trully something special.
One is Brokenstars, he did a database analysis and let me tell you
he diagnosed me with:

In one node my play is so bad he he said:
"Here you play ....

😃😃😃😃
We laughed about that one.

Of course he's a top notch coach (verified by twoplustwo so what did I expect, wink wink) and knows what to look for and size up your game quickly.
I'm very happy with the session we had and I'm working on my game as we speak.
Looking forward to working with him more.
Also I bough even more great poker books...

Suffice to say that in three months if I don't beat 200 NL I pre-rakeback I can jump out my bloody window.

.

Anyway as you know I have a bigger goal than this.

LET'S GO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What up?
From other coach (let's call him Coach Uni) I bought 10 hours in total from and I'm happy client...
He's the one I picked from all the ones that I reaserched, by the way I gotta say, on average poker coaches HAVE TO be paid the most out of all the coaches, some of them have some crazy prices...(... who am I talking about ??? hmmmmmmmmm ahahahahahah)

I had a talk with coach Uni about my live play stint and moving up in general (while beating the games of course). I told him that the games where I played were sometime good sometimes so bad that it's wasn't even worth sitting down. And that sometimes were very big , other times 1-2 with 200 bb stacks. So the best thing in my opiniong was to get an appartment where you want to play live and stalk those games...
He said that in europe since the rake is high it's not really worth playing live unless there's a whale "wallin' around"
aaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhahahahahahahahah

He also said that as poker players we have to play with at least one fish at the table to win, because even if I'd be playing 200 or 1000 NL, with 2 fish at the table the decent reg (me in this case) will win on average.
I mean of course he's right, not only that but I've experienced this live already (online too to a lesser extent) and even in my few months of playing live , this is absolutely true, in higher games too.
Not only that but even a high stakes player like Yolan Cohen said this too in one of his play and explains while playing 5K nl: "You have to have a fish at the table that's loosing hard because rake is high on GG".

Reg batling is cute but, unless the rake is really low comparatively and it's done rarely the test yourself, I'm not a fan.

Graph so far this month:

Spoiler

Show

This month will be a lower volume month because I'm focused on improving, THIS IS WHAT I HAVE TO DO.
I don't really care about earning even though I have some expenses, I have money saved up, also I know for sure what I can earn per month if I didn't improve one iota (putting down heavy volume is not what I'm after), so ya earning is not my main goal either as of currently improving is.
I will improve in the highest impact spots to the lowest impact spots (studying highest impact and most valuable information to the lowest impact info, ex: Great players play and explains ) and I'm doing a ton of studying and drilling now.

I'm making a new schedule based around improving as we speak.

PS: bought this book from Assassinato:

I m studying, playing or doing work related things every day, just like a serious pro should baby. LET'S GO !!!

Since my live stint is concluded I figured I'll tell you a few stories wink, wink:

A few months ago I was playing and a new player sat down to play. He's a big guy , very chill and friendly let's call him Jonnie.
We start talking about this and that , how are thing going where he plays, where I play...etc
He sees me playing for like 7 hours and at one point we go outside to talk. He tells me that with my style I should be running people over in that game, that I should get a big roll and just play because I'd do very well. I tell him that I kinda know that and that the only problem I have is that I'm underrolled for those games (especially the 2/4/8 game), and I thank him for the compliment.

We sit back down and we continue playing. There's a very loose aggressive player at the table, let's call him Rocko, he can be dangerous due to his aggression at the table. I got into a hand where Rocko opened to 40 euros and me and 3 other players called. I have TT.
Rocko says: "Guys it's 4 vs 1"
(I was that 1, lol)
Rocko: "He can't beat all of us".
Flop is something like 853, it get's checked around.
Rocko: " Guys bet , any one of you"
Turn is a J. It get's checked around again.
Rocko: "Bet guys, he can't beat all of us"
River is another 8
Rocko : "Bet already someone !!"
We all check again.
People start flipping their cards over, and I'm the last one to do so. My hand is best. EZ 200 euros.

Rocko: "God dam it! I told you moutherf*ers to bet !!"

ahahahahahahahahahahahahah

The night continues, at one point I remember I got short for the game, I had just 550 euros in this 2/4/8 game which pretty often was straddled to 16.
I'm dealt 66.
Hand is straddled to 16 and UTG+2 opens to 50 euro , I call in HJ with my pair of sixes. SB and BB call too. Rocko is BB.
Flop is 863 with 2 spades.
Pot is 200 euros already. SB checks, Rocko bets 160, UTG+2 folds , I go all in, SB folds, Rocko snaps me off.
I ask Rocko if he wants to run it three times and he sais no. I instantly flip my cards over. When he sais that I have him crushed (he had a naked flush draw) he sais:"I'll do it 3 times then"
And I say: "No"
I lost.

ahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha

After that I had to move to the lower 1/2 table and lick my wounds .
The big table remained short and Rocko and Jonnie were going at it hard... swings were in the thousands...

I went on a few downswings in this live period.
I remember around the same time I went on a 2,2 K downswing and I decided to play only 1/2 until I recuperate at least 2K.
I went to a club (let's call it Golden) and I sat down, the owners like to play in this game, because they're players too and because of this the table started earlier since there were 2 extra players at the table.
Anyway I sit down and I ask the owner: "This is a 1/2 table right?"
Owner: "It's 2/4"
Me: "If it's 2/4 then I can't play. I'm on an ugly downswing"
Owner: "Hmmmm, all right, let's do 1/2 then."
Cool of him to do me a solid like that.
I recovered pretty quicky ...

I have to say that I always managed my downswings well.
I think the first pillar of a poker player should be bankroll management, for me personally it's number 1 by far.
I thought to myself: "You want to take shots, sure take shots, but within limits."

I'm content with how things went overall even if I made a lot of mistakes, it's OK, they won't happen again.

At this point I can play 25 NL online extremly confortably with the hundreds of buyins that I have.
I have the luxury of being able take quite some time to improve. I find that to be fantastic.
Anyway my coach said to do 100 000 hands at 25 NL and then if I'm doing well just move up, since money is not an issue, even for 200 NL. I'll take another session with Uni and Brokenstars soon, I just have to implement everything they taught me.

More stories comming soon: scandals, players arguing, players fighting
Some stories ... might be too much if you know what I mean...

I took a shot at 200 NL, it didn't go well, I lost two buyins.

These are the sessions after that:

+ 560 euros in around 10 K hands mostly at 25 NL
