My results of grinding 2NL 5NL 10NL 25NL 50NL 100NL
Hello everyone, I want to share with you my 20 days result with 50$ deposit on GGpoker
2NL was awful, after like 15k hand
last hour was good, time to rest now till tomorrow, graph is improving a little bit even tho i missed ton of value
That 22 flat from sb in high rakes games is just burning money and winning a 20bb pot against top2 is effing hilarious man. Only way to play that worse is check fold the flop tbh :p
And like mentioned if the pool is nitty then just run them over and give up when getting called. When you can print with cring every spot that hits you more and just give up when called makes you so much money. And thinking that tricky plays are better at higher stakes is just a meh regs nonsense.

I agree about 22 usually i fold it, i wonder why i called maybe 4tabling i lost focus or was tilted a bit, anyway idk what solvers say but i did my own math and yeah flat calling from SB with small pairs yeah it’s burning money
About pool i have paranoia already because yeah they are nitty but as soon as i start to run them over (i tried) it worked amazing my redline skyrocketed but next day with exact same approach my redline was moving down rapidly, i was losing a lot, i had feeling everyone adjusted to my strategy at the same time lol now i lean towards balanced play more even tho pool is nitty i feel they are adjusting
Every time i start new day i have to start with hands like this... my mood is gone already
pot odds was so nice i couldnt fold 😃
even tho i won some big pots today i ended up losing -36$ overall my game was bad but placed 9th on leaderboard got 55$
sweet hand of the day
today was bad day, at the beginning i was winning big pots but in the same time strangely i was losing, i checked what was happening and find out that i was burning money from CO opens and IP 3bets, ranges were too loose like K2s 3bets and any trash 2 card opens from CO
i fixed ranges and made little comeback at the end but monkey tilted few stacks in the process
punts and terribad plays of the day, wall of shame
overall graph looks disgusting but there is hope in the future lul
very first day of the day, demotivated as hell
total 32k hands played in 6 days, breakeven graph, up +300$ from rakeback and bonuses, it translates to roughly 3.75BB per 100 hand or 8.9$ per hour (as i play 950 hands per hour 4tabling) so even a breakeven playing on zoom can earn that much hourly actually it's not that bad and if BBJ hits that will increase the amount significantly that even can play straight NL50 after
main thing with zoom is so many premium hands are wasted without getting any value, than here and there badbeats, suckouts happen, all these together creates difficult environment to stay mentally stable, focused and not to tilt, one tilting session can damage winrate too much
Your graph looks like mine when I started my blog 2 months ago.
You are not nearly aggressive enough, overfolding and not getting enough value.
If the pool is as nitty as you say you should up the aggression even more and pick up lots of small pots before showdown.
atm im testing new strategy on lower limits will see
improved strategy seems better at one glance but need more volume to be sure, than i will get back to NL25 again
Redline death will mean no winrate in those kinds of games.
Agree. I should at least aim to breakevenish redline but my playing style is more like showdownish.
These days i run awful but im feeling my game strategy is a lot better, i believe soon i can show positive winrate at NL25, will see.
i was expecting a fold there :(
I'm still playing on lower limit, mainly to fix my redline before going back to NL25
What i changed:
* Increased 4bet frequency overall
* Increased aggressiveness pre with AK/QQ/JJ/TT etc (before i was even flatting with them vs 3bets sometimes mainly because of nitty pool to avoid AK/QQ vs KK/AA setups which happens often)
* Now using AK as a tool to steal a lot of preflop 3bets, i can even shove vs SB/BB big 3bets 100bb deep with emoji "Thank You" mix it with AA/KK sometimes so they be guessing i hold AK or KK/AA
* Now i go for Bet-Bet-Shove (either with value hands or bluffs more like balanced, even tho it's good for my redline not sure shoving river is optimal for value hands, i get many folds)
* Now playing less scared with good value hands 100BB deep i go for the kill more often
I know size of 3bet 10-12BB from SB/BB is standard and this is how i should size up but i get many folds and not sure i'm getting right value with my premiums thinking of this strategy might be not the best, i know i prevent all speculative hands to get in cheap when im OOP but in the other hand most of the time i get folds and no good value
It's little chaos, even tho my redline is getting fixed and i really love it lately i have problem stacking off villains, getting fat values etc need more volume i guess to see if this new approach is good enough
Speaking of OOP 3bet sizing this hand wouldn't even have happened if i sized up 3bet correctly but i think even tho there is a risk i want to play more 3bet pots OOP and navigate there to aim for more value, this might be very very wrong but im tired of how often they fold to my 10-12bb polarizing range, if i 3bet way less i can use linear range and aim for more value
How to get away KK vs AA cheap + see the showdown to feel good about it while villain goes nuts he didn't get full stack AA vs KK hahaha
Anyway that A flop save me, i wanted to trap him but sometimes trapper gets trappy you know hehe
More like how to be results oriented and play the hand close to the worst way possible.
I think ...
DJ is thinking...
You pay so much rake over there at GG . Sure there is jackpots and motivational music on lobby but it just doesn't make sense to play there.
I played there 500/1k in 2021 and losing was like running water from faucet totally unbeatable rake.

agree, if we see lets say top 10 winners of NL25 regular tables it looks like this
3-4bb winrate but when sample is close to 1m they're under 1bb winrate, im sure those players are highly table selecting too, now imagine zoom players winrate? we don't have zoom players database but maybe all top winners are just breakeven players, yea really thug life we're having here
