gl Grindcore

I had few coaching sessions with you few years ago, watched your vids and it always seemed to me that your greatest strenght is ability to get reads on players really fast and than use them much better than pretty much any reg. Am I correct with this assumption ?

If so, why do you choose to play zoom ? Do you think that more hands / hr is worth giving up a lot of EV ? I know that you still have huge edge on this stakes, just with your style I didn't imagine you playing zoom

If you would have no bluffs in your range in spots where I'm correctly folding you'd be probably be a fish.

Re: $10K at the micros in 1 month

In your opinion is it ok to play zoom in order to grind a bankroll from lets say 40$ (talking about NL2 of course) ? or is it better to play more tables of normal games?

It's less good for learning how to adjust, which is an extremely valuable skill. The main benefit of zoom is convenience of not having to table select and volume. Both are non-issues for the majority of micro stakes players so they shouldn't play zoom imo.

Grindcore, you don't play on euro sites anymore or you just doing this challenge on PS because of zoom?

Day 2 results:




Haven't ever felt this bad about having a 5BI day I think. I got tired early and played very unfocussed so there were some huge spews in the second half, though that's only part of the downswing.

Weird chat. I'm glad I play on a site where I can mute chat completely.
