Hello 2+2ers,

I'm a pokerplayer from the Netherlands. Currently i'm 22 years old and i've been playing poker for 4 years now.
Due to school I quit poker a half year ago. Nowadays I have some routine in my life and I'm dying to play poker again. My main stake was 50NL, but I decided to start over at 10 NL.

I created this thread to keep me motivated. Volume was always my biggest leak.
I'm also gonna post some hands to improve as a pokerplayer. Mainly i'm gonna play ZOOM.


Bankrollmanagement
150 -< 500 = 10 NL
500 - < 1500 = 25 NL
1500 + = 50 NL

Let's go!

when you copy your hand to clipboard you can select what output type it is.
in HM2 when you select "view hand" by right clicking on a specific hand, you have a little box down the right corner of the newly popped up window that manages all output types. Select either the 2+2 type or simply phpbb forums and you will find what you seek.
Not sure about pokertracker however

Thanks, for the advice.

Update: Made the biggest mistake in poker. Started a 50NL zoom table out of frustration. When I opened it, I already knew it was wrong. Before I looked at the first hand, I was heading to the close button. A second before clicking the close button, I saw AA in my first hand. Offcourse I played it and manage to stack 2 people. After the hand I closed the table and excluded me from 50NL until the time is right.

Roll at the moment: $183,-

Gonna start a session after work.

            Hand 4 is a spew. 10-Jo is not the hand you wanna play out of position, especially in a 4bet pot.

            Had a pretty good session. Not many interesting hands.

            3 buy-ins up

            Still have some questions though.

            If no stats, what about these hands:

              MP: $23.13 (231.3 bb)
              Hero (CO): $13.97 (139.7 bb)

              UTG raises to $0.30, MP folds, Hero raises to $0.90, BTN folds, SB raises to $3, 3 folds

              SB mucked and won $2.20 ($1.30 net)


              Very often i see this. After a smallish 3-bet, they shove.

                Almost every time they show AA, after this play. But is it +EV to fold in this situation??

                It's 0 EV to fold KK in that situation. But definitely +EV to call.

                It's been a while since last update. But i'm still making progress.
                Volume isn't my main focus right now. I played 4 tables of zoom, but I dropped back to 2. My main leak was that I overestimated my big pairs, when it was obvious that my opponent had a set.
                Now I'm playing 2 tables of ZOOM and it works perfect for me. Will post graph when I reach 25.000 hands mark.
