Have you shottook 400nl yet? might have to move up to where they res.. etc.

Nope was hoping to shot take this month but honestly dont feel in the mental state/skill level yet. Also I have never ever shot took during a downswing/BE stretch and I think doing that is a massive brm leak which probably leads to countless people going broke.

just another terrible day dont even think i won a pot.

BR: 16827.01 USD

running like trash still, Qh9h v Kh7h on 267xhxAh8h at 200, losing every flip, i guess a testament to how soft the site is when you can run bad and still manage a winning session. oh well just keep on grinding i guess

well that session went, favourably... hopefully we can get back on track :P

was up quite a chunk then crashed and burned near the end.

notable pot was at 100z 210bb deep:

KK in BB
sb 3bb
hero 9bb
sb 20bb
hero call 20bb
flop: T77r
sb bets
hero calls
turn: 2
sb bets
hero calls
river: 2
sb jams
i call

lost to TT, probs should just 5b GII pre but meh.

yeah, calling 4bets also with KK AA sometimes for deception cant be that bad though?
good to see you getting some little run good after some period of BE Strech

Def 5betting AA, KK 200+bb deep isnt a slowplay imo when you flat the 4b because running into AA is a very real possibility.

I was thinking because its SB vs BB 6max might be standard to get it in
okay I am more of the fullring guy and I like to play KK cautiously as well 200bbdeep

Yeah i mean, if i 5bet and he 6bet shoves im puking and calling and against alot of villains its strictly a range of AA. However the downside of flatting the 4b is he gets to realize free equity with TT and Ax type of hands, also theres a ton of value if i 5b and he peels worse, so honestly it seems crazy but maybe 5b/f is best? Idk though probably cant fold KK even for 200 bbs since its bvb.

So.... very big day for me today !!!

was randomly 4 tabling zoom and thought **** it why not register the first tournament in the listing, so i registered the big 7.5... and .... well...:



I don't think I have ever decimated someone HU like I did in this mtt, i mean not to brag too much but it was pure obliteration.

made quite a chunk in cash as well.

BR: 18932.72 USD

will post all the fun mtt hands tomorrow and some stars zoom hands as well, really tired right now so gotta get some sleep.

annnd updated graph cause why not:

MAKING mountains bro, KEEP ON, looks good

BR: 18463.97 USD

meh honestly just one of those session where you run bottom 0.001% percentile of the run good distribution, as compared to yesterday where I ran top 0.001 percentile.

Big hands:

Lost QQ < JJ on 776 AIOTF
Lost AK < A4s AIPF
Lost KK < QQ AIPF, super sick kinda cause flop KJ2 turn Q riv Q lol. was like yeah no running straight when that turn came.lul
Chopped KK v QQ on stars AIPF and chopped KK v AK on stars. both of these i lost the first run and won the second so cleary gto to have run it twice on.

so yeah pretty much 3.5 of the buyins i lost was those first 3 hands, then some small pots sprinkled in, oh well, these sessions don't really bother me aside from the fact that it puts me further from 20k which i set as my benchmark for shotting 400.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

BR: 17821 USD

probably the most i've lost in a 2 day stretch.

ran like like trash on stars and on ignition, but honestly feel like I played some of my best poker today and yesterday. Just getting coolered in literally every spot imaginable and running bad in the AI situations, but oh well, just gotta grind it out I guess. Decided to stop loss today even though I felt like I was playing well cause honestly just feels ****ty losing so much money and I'm sure subconsciously that the results are affecting my game.

Gonna go over some hands with my friend tomorrow and hope to learn alot during that.

It's a tough pill to swallow sometimes but the only metric that matters is my skill level not my account balance.

Hey max, What u think about this hand I played. Do we value bet this river?

Think AQo is quite a clear shove; Villain probably has 16 combos of KQ that will mostly play this line and catch River, QJs and the occasional Tx catch also possible. On the other hand he maybe traps some hands but I don't think he'll trap enough combos to outweigh the bluffcatching part that we beat.
So shove AQ and checkback (shove vs stations) KQ.

^^^ should probably take his advice over mine @vai123

playing bad and on top of that running just as bad as i'm playing. Gonna take a much needed 2.5 day break and not play a hand of poker. Maybe do some studying in that time instead. Also was planning to do another live poker trip but honestly just gonna cancel really not feeling it right now. Was up 400 at one point today and then just insta ****ing doomswitch as usual. **** this game sometimes.

Super ****ty thinking that I was going to shot 400 by end of May honestly will be lucky to shot by end of the summer considering how I'm playing and running.

Ended up going on trip, generally I am a big punter but also I somehow am good at finding high quality horses to save the day. BR looking good more updates to come soon.

Got second in a 22$ for which ignition gave me tickets due to the recent lag issues.

of course as you guys know I have a life to live and therefore have living expenses, these expenses don't get reflected in the BR number that I use in this thread. so far don't really have the BR/LR to play 400nl but I'm gonna try to go low expense mode for the next month, i.e no trips, less eating out, less partying and live off the money I have in the bank without making a withdrawal. I have 12k USD in my ignition account right now and I'll fire my shot when I have 15k USD.

Also have 1k CAD on floyd, generally never sports bet but i mean at -500 there is just no way I am not betting. Probably shouldn't have though.
