Hi 2+2

This is my previous thread 100$ ->1000$ challange :
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/17...-sngs-1616539/

Graph:


Why am I doing this ?
Since 888poker and pokerstars moved out of Slovenia , I don't have much 6-max SNG action. So I will be playing live MTT's from now on.

What I will be playing :
-I will be playing 40$-215$ MTT's / SNG's

How much I played till now :

I played 3 live turnaments.
-I won 60+10€ SNG in local casino Bled
-I played Satellite 40€ in casino Perla 29/144
-I played another 40+10€ SNG in local casino Bled 22/37

Next I will play in Rozvadov - 888Poker Festival
I will be playing this turnaments from 26.01.2017 - 02.02.2017 :



I will take two bullets for 215$ oppening event if needed.

So whole package with food and living will cost me around 1200€ .

And my goals for this journey :
-Get experience
-Improve as a person and poker player
-Make 10k till end of 2017
-Play 1 live SNG/MTT per week (while I have school)
-Post updates after each SNG or Turnament
-Read 1 book per month

Finished 1 day of 888 festival.
I entered oppening event for 225€ .Starting stack 30000k. Starting blinds 50-100 . On lvl 3 I got QQ on button .

Unknown player opens in early position , I 3 bet , he 4 bets I call.
Flop comes JQA fd.. He checks I bet 2/5 of the pot he just calls.
Turn J
He checks , I check .
River blank.
He goes all in , I snap call .

Showdown :
Villian : AA
Hero : QQ

I busted very early , so I decided to reentry .
On 7th lvl I got into trouble with Ah9h. We went 5way on flop. I was on CO. We all check on flop : KsQs7 , turn 10s . They all checked to me , I decided to lead. I bet 3/4 of the pot . Player on HIJ calls , we are HU. River blank. He checks , I bet 1/2 pot , he tanks for 2 minutes and calls with K8 .

I lost 8k chips .. down to 22k.I think I was still under tilt , but didnt even acknowledge it. I got my mind back on the break.

On 12lvl blinds 1000-2000 ante 300. I pushed 99 with 34k stack on CO . BB calls with AJ. Flop 10s7h4s Turn A River Blank. I busted second bullet. Avg stack for second day was 100k.

My opinion:
I played B game almost all turnament. I got in the zone at lvl 10(30bb) and maintain that to the end.

Today is a new day and a new turnament . Vamooos

Day 3 update :

Plans have changed , I sold 40% of action for oppening event 1C.
I had a lot of ups and downs.

Hand 1:
Blinds 1600/800
Villian : 60k
Me : 45k

Villian opened from mid1, I called on CO with QsJs. We are hu on the flop.
Flop : 8s6s4
Villian bets 5k , I call.
Turn : 8
Villian checks . I bet 9k , Villian calls.
River : Qd
Villian leads all in , I tank for 3min and fold .

20k stack remaining, blinds went up to 2k/1k.

I moved to another table , and went out first hand. Utg opens , I had 66 in mid1 and shoved , he called with QJ. I made -EV shove . So a little mistake there.

I went out at 19:30 . Took 1h of break to get my mind ready for hurricane.
Hand 1:
I opened KQo utg , 4 players called .
Flop : Q3d4d
SB, BB checked . I bet 1/2 pot . Co called . We are HU .
Turn: : 2
I pushed him all in , he had 1/3 of pot behind. He calls with Qc6c.
Then he shouted fiveeeeee.
River : 5

Hand 2 :
I had 14 bb. Mid2 opened, I shoved 99 on CO. Button went allin , mid2 called
Showdown:
Mid2 : 1010
Me : 99
Button: AQ
1010>99>AQ

And that was it for day 3 .

Overall I'm happy with my game, I'm playing every day better and more comfortable in field . I'm really positive all the way and have my mind in the right place.

Today (day 4) I will play high noon turbo 55€ 11:00am, and at 16:00 , Thunder 6-max 60€. I'm really excited for 6-max
--Jeraj888's live poker journey-- Quote
01-30-2017 , 04:48 AM
Day 4 update :
High noon turbo went pretty bad. I had ft stack , then I had 2-3 flips with short stacks and fall down to 14bb. 17left.
Hand 1 :
Co shoves 2bb
I'm on SB with Q10o 14 BB . I shove .
BB calls .
Co shows AA, BB shows KK. AA>KK>Q10

Thunder 6-max 50+10€
Ran up pretty good stack-150k . Starting 15 k. Then I lost 2flips with short stacks . Back to 20bb.

Hand 1 : I had 9bb . And shoved bvb 54o into 25 bb stack . We were already in the money 14 left of 211. This was a mistake. But I didn't even know , I was sure that is correct, because I was looking on SnG push/fold chart.

I cashed for 154€.


So what I learned in this few days :
- I need to tighten up my reshove range, because this players don't even know ranges and usually they have good hands .
- bvb tighten up range for MTT's
-Be very grateful, that I can play so young and have opportunity to compete in this field

Today-day5 I will play The Swordfish 85+15 7k gtd and I'm ready to win ��

Day 5 update :

I finished swordfish turnament in 11th place. Called bvb 9bb J10. 55>J10 .I played poorly in the last phase (18left).

Hand 1 :
HIJ nit shoved 4bb, I reshoved with 8bb K7s on Button . Loose play....
but got lucky K7>KQs

Day 6 update :
I played The Monsoon 85+15€ and won it. I played on really high lvl, so very happy with my game .

Hand 1 :
Martin Kabrhel late registred on 8 lvl(11,5bb starting stack) and he doubled up first hand . He shouted: "easy turnament, I doubled up"
Third hand he shoved on the button 15bb, I looked down and saw AK. Then he called clock after 10s . I slowrolled him for another minute and called off. He showed 104 . I held .

Keep turning out those Turnaments. Your 21, and finished school? Good luck though seriously. I just can't velieve you have been spelling that important word wrong. When you Google stuff like sng tournament push fold chart doesn't it prompt you that you spelled it wrong? I am intrigued. Keep turning!
