@Dnassume Knoxer said thank u! We getting chocolate wasted this weekend!


On a sidenote: still currently have the first losing month in over a year at risk. Looks like it will all come down to the #pvg whether we end red or black. I hear the game is gonna be 5/5/10, so shd b swingy. Not sure what to expect during this whole production, but at least I'll get the opportunity to compete.
Big thanks to 2+2 and 9to5Poker.com for allowing me to freeroll on all my travel expenses.
It all started right here on 2+2.com when I got the idea to start this 1/2nl goal for motivation in 2013. Years passed, and somehow I turned into a Vlogger heading to Cali for a live stream. 9to5Poker jumped on board and suddenly things hv gone in a direction I never imagined. In the meantime, I'm just going w the flow trying to tackle this #40k challenge. #BehindPace

Knox say thanks @tswpoker1.

Update:
still invested in stock game.
$21,144 in #40k Challenge
Apartment sale money put to use.

All will combine at end of year for the final vlog.

Losing some steam in this #40k Challenge. Just can't break through this month for nothing. Been putting in hours, but they haven't been quality hours. I need to do better.

Can we turn it around?

Missed a big draw when I ($350) put a raise $10 mp pre w 89got 4 calls.
Flop 7 Q 5
I bet $25, and get 1 caller in position who covers.

Turn is a J giving me double gutter Flush draw.
Pot $90
I bet $50, V min raises to $100.
I shove all in ($215ish more to V). He tanks w Q7 (2pair), and finally calls off.

River brick.

Mayb I cd just call the min raise ott, and go into ch/fold on brick rivers. Not sure if Q7 types lay down the right amount of times.

Never got anything else going in the sesh. Bled off a lot w spps, and floats that amounted to nothing.

We in the red for a small -216$ for July.

I mean if the guy is tanking with Q7 I imagine the jam has to be good.

I think he has to fold >30% of the time (if my math is correct). Not sure you're getting that?

Is this accounting for our equity when called though? Like yes if we have stone zero equity when need x% folds to break even but we wouldn't need as many if we have something like 25% equity vs calling range etc.

^I might be flat out wrong but yeah.

Went by the box today to cash out some chips for this PVG.
Looks like we r taking $5,525 to Sactown.



When we get back, I will b putting the same amount back into the box. Plus or minus whatever we earned in 1/2nl for the month of July.
