First days review + questions

First i want thanks all who answer my topics, reading and thinking over all answers. Thanks themuppets for making review for one of my sng's, was really helpful.

Now i am played 11 days, 104 1.5$ tourneys and i am up 26 buy-ins up.

My graph per days look this:


Rio: 25.87%
Avr earnings per sng: 0.39$

Hmm... maybe anyone see any obvious weeks into theses hud stats what to look for when next time reviewing play:


Mzone - gray (0-1), red (1-5), orange (5-10), yellow (10-20), green (20+)

Mosley getting against poor players who i can read on. Also often getting against big nits and big gamblers, that is from "scary new players" till "4bet anything".

Having problems to get into thinking that i can take break. I am going walk then out some time. Any advice getting mind into thinking that can take break or into that can take free day? It like mind somehow saying "play more, more, more", but logical mind say "no, take some time free, you can make lot better play then now, you are playing poor because playing so long". Reality always getting breaks and wrong ideas about playing more get only into think level. Anyone getting similar thinks in mind when played few days of lot of poker? Any advices fighting with them? Theses thinks will go away someday?
Hoping that writes this logical

Reading mathematics of poker ebook, not getting it so well at first as SSHE, but love this book and keeping reading and rereading section by section, this is harder book. Hmm there is any ebook what you can advice to read while going up sng's limits? SSHE is really only what have done read so far. Thanks DougL and themuppets advising what to read while starting out so far.

Don't getting problems with angers while playing, even not when anyone getting runner runner cards - just smiling how unpredictable poker can be. Only time when was getting on tilt was after playing versus supernova and he brutally crushed me. But after time realized that it also happen and is part of game.

So... thinking about poker seriously and getting lot of fun playing poker and learning it. Getting lot of great support from this forum users and it great, it should be lot harder to learn if not using this resource.

So questions was into text. Thanks.

Re: First days review + questions

Your VPIP is a little low, indicating that you're folding a bit too much pf; as discussed in my review, I think you can start experimenting with widening your ranges. The micros opponents you face are often so bad postflop that you will crush regardless, but folding too much is for sure a leak in this game.

Assuming the AF is calculated the same way as in PT3, yours is a lot higher than mine and perhaps suggests that you have too much of a raise or fold mentaility. HUHU is one game where just calling is often the correct play. There's room for stylistic differences however and this may be in part due to the difference in opponents (relentless value betting versus the extremely passive players you encounter in the micros games, etc).

BTW, I still don't understand what those mzones are.

I'm actually kind of rare, I think, in that I'm a winning player but I have trouble putting in any volume. I just get bored with it after awhile. So this doesn't come from my own experience but I remember when I was studying the NLH HUSnGs, someone was talking about how it can help a person in your situation to put yourself on a schedule and stick to it. This means actually deciding beforehand on start and stop times as well as making yourself take breaks which you have also planned out ahead of time.

You might find the Eightfold Path to Poker Enlightenment series by Tommy Angelo helpful with some of these meta aspects.

Congratulations on the great start.

Also, although I haven't seen it myself, I know Bella did a video series on MoP, so that might be helpful if you're struggling with any of the concepts from the book.

Thanks i will review and will try to improve all things from your advices. I am right now thinking about subscribing to douces cracked for 1 month, it really just 29$ without hidden fee and there can subscribe any time? I see that cardrunners have 100$ sign-up fee, so just wondering. O.o

Yeah, it's been awhile since I had an account there but they are pretty straightforward / I never encountered any secret charges or anything. They used to have a free trial as well.
