which is why i'm asking lol. Only way i can imagine him doing that is living in a casino, eg a pro, and in such a case, not sure why he's hanging around a beginners forum.

And even then, it'd be impossible haha

Re: July Beginners Bankroll Thread

Quick question. In 2-7 single draw, what sort of low should I be value betting after the draw, assuming I am PFR but OOP and both have drawn one?

2 1/3 months of almost straight grinding (40k hands at 23 hands an hr.. not sure if thats correct but that would be 1739 hrs and there are only 744 hrs in a 31 day month)

UTG+1 mucks 9 A (One Pair, Aces) (Pre 10%, Flop 6%, Turn 0%)
BTN mucks K 9 (One Pair, Kings) (Pre 16%, Flop 16%, Turn 10%)

PartyGaming - $0.02 NL - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

MP: $2.27
CO: $2.94
BTN: $2.00
SB: $2.15
Hero (BB): $4.20
UTG: $2.76

SB posts SB $0.01, Hero posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.03) Hero has J 7

fold, fold, fold, fold, SB raises to $0.08, Hero calls $0.06

Flop: ($0.16, 2 players) T 8 9
SB bets $0.12, Hero calls $0.12

Turn: ($0.40, 2 players) 3
SB bets $0.28, Hero raises to $0.91, SB calls $0.63

River: ($2.22, 2 players) 7
SB checks, Hero bets $3.09 and is all-in, SB calls $1.04 and is all-in

SB shows K K (Flush, King High) (Pre 83%, Flop 0%, Turn 0%)
Hero shows J 7 (Straight Flush, Jack High) (Pre 17%, Flop 100%, Turn 100%)
Hero wins $0.00
Hero wins $4.09

EDIT: Oh, and I just did the PokerStrategy free bankroll thing to try and learn PLO on Everest without any personal risk (as Party doesn't offer it below PLO10 anyway).

Re: July Beginners Bankroll Thread

I logged into my betfair account and saw that I had £4.53 of a bankroll so I had one table of 2NL, and went bust after 7hours of grinding. Hopefully within the next few weeks I will have a bigger bankroll, more than double what I had, a whole £10 in fact. But I have to wait until I get paid seems to be a problem with the banks over here where I live.

I let you know what happens and mabye post a graph.
