Restarting with 580$ playing NL30$ Goal is to be 100NL reg by Jan 2011

So i gave up on my other thread. Been running horrible and the thread sort of selfexpired. Some of you already read my bio. For you who didnt here it is again.

Im a 26 year old swede, ive been playing for about 6 years on and of. But im really regarding the last 5 months as the first period of serious play. Ive been playing 30NL on Ongame and been up to 50NL a couple of times but failed and had to move back down. Now im in the middle of my worst downswing yet, loosing 2/3 of my roll in 2 weeks. So figured im gonna start over.

Im working with DC coach Inavacuum and i hope to improve to were i can beat the micros and go for 100NL. I have a 400$ rakeback coming in the beginning of september so that will boost me a bit.

Ill try to post daily results starting sunday!
(wont be able to play much until sunday) i look to log about 30k hands a month since working fulltime i think thats a realistic number. Hope you enjoy the thread!

Forgot to write. Ill be moving up with 25 buyins and back down with 20buyins. Exept from the first period of moving up, then ill give myself a 10 buyin freeroll to get comfortable with the game. Does that sound resonable?

Re: Restarting with 580$ playing NL30$ Goal is to be 100NL reg by Jan 2011

Managed to get 1613 hands in today even tho i wasnt gonna play much.
Ended up roughly 1 buy in. So thats nice. Hope this breaks my runbad streak.

Starting roll : 582$
Ending roll : 610$
Hands played : 1613

Im gonna post biggest winners and loosers in every session and would be happy to get feedback on my plays.


Biggest winners

#1. No reads on villain. He played everyone of the 6 hands hes been on the table. I dont se him coldcalling my 4bet light at all. But im first to act and i feel shoving here is correct. Im 28% against JJ QQ i split with AK and loose to KK AA. Plus if hes a fish wich every 6 hands played might indicate he could show up with some random bull**** and i would have som FE.

Re: Restarting with 580$ playing NL30$ Goal is to be 100NL reg by Jan 2011

Another 935 hands booked. Lost 1,5bi. I still have some runbad left in my system. Cant hit a flop in 700 hands. Isolated a fish like 3 times per orbit and didnt flop anything and he never folded so it was like i gave him 4xbb 3 times per orbit.

Starting roll : 615$
Ending roll : 563$
Hands played : 935


In this hand im completely lost preflop. Should i 4bet or not? is calling fine?

villain is 28 / 25 and 3bets 7% over 455 hands.

Re: Restarting with 580$ playing NL30$ Goal is to be 100NL reg by Jan 2011

Yeah that was a sick hand. I got lucky on him later on when he flopped a set on my kings. River KING!!

Anyway i didnt post that many hands today cause i didnt get any good ones. only obvious hands. Hopefully ill get into some more trouble tomorrow and we could finally have something to discuss in here. Rakeback shows up on saturday. roughly 450$ so that will be a boost towards 50NL Im gonna book some sessions with inavacuum aswell. If you dont know him Look @ his videos on DC. Really good!

Re: Restarting with 580$ playing NL30$ Goal is to be 100NL reg by Jan 2011

Played a shorter session tonight due to being tired from work.

Starting roll : 627$
Ending roll : 693$
Hands played : 780

Was up more then 4bi´s at one time in the sesh but basicly ran 2 bi´s in the ground in the 4 last hands. Sucks when that happens. Tomorrow will be a pokerday. I only work halfday so ill be able to play like 7 hours. Hopefully that will kick september of to a good start.

My horrible run seems over.

Re: Restarting with 580$ playing NL30$ Goal is to be 100NL reg by Jan 2011

With calculated rakeback im gonna be able to move up if i make 150$ more during september. Im kindof nervous tho since moving up normally means having to move back down and rebuilding again. Im gonna study superhard and have inavacuum sweat my first session on 50NL. Then i probebly wont spazz!
