Yeah keep grinding and the flips will turn eventually toward you side

yeah i'm very aggresive when the last three tables. that's the main reason my final table distribution is weighting toward top 3 spots. mostly i bust last three tables or come in whit a top 3 stack at het final table.

About ICM i'm meaning mostly calling to light. i tend to shove fairly aggresive to. but it takes time to learn. in the beginnen you just want to make that FT and find it soulcrushing if you bust before. now it's all about gaining an good FT spot and stack.

I wanted to play the main event but i have an party with my soccer team so i can't.
So im gonna play the mini wcoop main event i think

Aa good. Have fun at the party).

I asked you because I want to play it, but it's difficult with a 200$ roll. I think I will play those deadline sat's and also some other's in the afternoon that will be full of weaker players. Hopefuly I will not invest 15 16 $ in satellites in order to qualify))). I would invest 20$ to take at least 2 entries.
Also, I want to play the sunday storm and another 5.5 event KO so I will invest a lot on Sunday, risking a big amount of my actual roll. I hope it will be a better sunday than the last one when I lost 40bucks, losing big all ins in mid stages with KK against JTo)))

Thanks!

Yeah Sunday Storm it seems very soft in the beginning. I had also a mini deep run in an anniversary one (150th) something like this.

People are calling 30BB QJo on AK2 board))). I went all in with AK on this flop and he hits the straight on the river)).

In general I tend not to fold AA and KK on a flop 10 7 2, if I'm beeing reraised with 100BB in the early stages. I see lot of people making all ins in the early phases with JTo on that flop even in 11$ buy in tourneys.

yeah it depends on villains if villain is an reg in an single raised pot. its almost Always Top +FD etc so you gonna end up in flip situation might think about folding. especially when i played the hand pretty face up.

vs unkowns and fishes i tend to stack of and go for it. and even at these buyins you gonna be good with solid poker. only risk is the variance. on weekdays its more reggy and i skip them. in the weekends they are gold. its not very uncommon to have 3 to 4 fishes at the table in the bigs and hot up to 11$. above i can't say i don't play higher.

Yeah I forgot to mention that if it's a reg I will not risk my stack. In the weekdays in general I'm working so I play something in the evening. The weekends are practically for grinding a lot.

Also, I saw this kind of all in calling 4 bet with ATo with 25BB in Big 22 so at every level there this king of player. I was running good in Big 22, I was with 3 guys in the pot around 30BB each. MP minraise with ATo, Button 3bet him with Ako and I went all in with KK both called and Ace came and that's it)) Blind were around 200/400.

Also, I think I have a problem playing with a big stack in the early to mid stage of the tourney. For example blinds are 100/200 or 150/300 and you I have between 100 and 150 BB. I don't think I use the stack as I should.

Yeah i have the same in the weekdays working and in the evening some grinding. most volume in the weekends to.

i will try to satty in some of these the comming weeks.

I don't think you need to over adapt with the big stack. The only adjustments i usually make is opening a little wider for stealing. mostly because a lot of players play fit or fold. so there are a lot op spots where opening and cbetting is enough. and if neccesary i keep barreling(dependable on board structure).

Second adjustment i usually make is 3betting in position a little bit wider.

Further i just try to maintain my bigstack and grind it slowly up. But i'm think my bigstack play is one point that needs some improvement in my game.

I'm solid in my shortstack, 30bb stack and maintaining and keeping my stack healty.

But i could do sometimes more to get an bigstack i think

Yeah your play is good. I have worked a little on my deep stack play and I was a little tighter and it was good. I had a nice run in the weekend.

I've played in the main event micro million, but I've busted shoving QJo from the button with 13BB. I should have waited since I was at a very weak table, but I had amost 14 hours of grinding))).

I got in the mid stage of sunday storm where and I go busted with Aces against 88.

Actual Bankroll 337$+2000 Starcoins.

Bankroll 560$. I've played a lot this days and the bankroll is growing very slowly. I gave up the 50 fifty and I m focused only in MTTs and satellites. I had 2 FT this days but only in 1.1$ buy in which you get around 40 bucks for 5th place. I think that in order to finish the challenge (make the 1200$ until 28th) I have to reach FT to min 11$ buy in MTT. Unfortunately in the events with buy ins more than 11$ my aces and kings are always loosing, especially in progressive knockouts in multiway pots))). In micro buy ins most of the time my aces and kings are winning. I hope next days it will be different. The important thing is that I'm not having a lot of loosing days

Challenge finished. Bankroll 1250$. I've managed to finish it earlier than 28th of august.

I didn't expected to finish it so fast, but I knew that with a 500 bankroll I can play bigger MTT's. As I was mentioning earlier, I'm winning only in micro micro MTT. Yesterday I was running pretty good and I had 3 final tables in big field tourneys.

I've won one 1.1 re entry tournamnet with almost 2000 people for 300 bucks.
I got second in the big 1.1 also with 2500 people taking around 250 bucks.

I've got 5th in the daily dollar rebuy.

I've played also the other BIG 1.1 of the day and I got 25th place with more than 4000 people.

Now, I didn't thought to another challenge, butI will do a topic, playing the same thing (MTT and satellites) having around 500 $ as bankroll, play part time(mostly in the weekend) and make between 500 and 1000$ per month, buy the end of the year.
