I'm not savy on these legalities, but my understanding is, correct me if I'm wrong.

I purchased a product from the game, it is similar to a monthly subscription. The game then revokes/bans my access for "abnormal activity" as they would call it. The game does not allow Player to Player transfer of currency (in game currency, for real money). But they also cannot prove it, as the money is being exchanged through Venmo. But the algorithm probably sees my transfer logs as shady.

Anyways the product I purchased, with gives me daily benefit, I can no longer access/receive. So I'm not getting what I bought, at all. Now I'm sure in the ToS somewhere, they are allowed to ban and strip my account away. But in doing so, I'm losing thousands of dollars worth of gear. Not to the mention the recently churned $400/value of in game currency.

And I don't go by AdvantagePlayer w/o a reason. You can hypothetically expense this off at the end of the year if it's done as an investment.

Slightly Better Volume

Okay so not quite the volume I was hoping for today, but did put in a few hours. Gonna lock it up, tomorrow is the gf bday, so don't want to nuke off before that. Going in with great spirits. Booked a nice ocean side hotel a few hours away.



I was up around $3K at one point, then swung down quite a bit for -$9K, and crawled my way back. There were plenty of SS where I just ended up chopping 70% vs 30% hands twice, or even three times, but I also did lucky once in a multiway pot with $1K winning $2K. So all's fair I suppose.

Sick thread. Tried 5 card plo a bit and the swings are just insane. Hope you are very careful on your clubs since its the perfect game for collusion even if ur an idiot.

I feel like in that game and 6 card mental game is like 80% of it and theory only 20% haha.

Yeah I wouldn't play in a random 4c PLO, let alone 6c, without the proper scouting and vouching for the game. Even with that though, you'll still have the occasional accusation of collusion here and there. And frankly we'll never know 100% if its variance or the guy knows +10 cards on you or something until its far too late.

Unlike NLH, you can tilt and just become more aggro, you won't get punished that badly, in fact some people won't be able to adjust and you might become even tougher. In PLO6, it's easy to have "outs" and just ram and jam into a superior hand. So I'd go as far to say 90% mental

Low Volume Weekend, Again

So back from my GF birthday weekend, we stayed at the most expensive per night (for me at least) resort/cabin at Caramel Resort & Spa in Monterey. She said, do you want this for your birthday next month and I quickly replied, ramen/sushi at home is fine

Probably won't be putting in more than 2-3 hours tomorrow for Sunday. Might not play either depending on what we decide to do.

Heading out now, 50/50 on getting one late night session later.

Back On Right, With Light Volume

Went to the hospital today for a light checkup, my gf has a small allergic reaction to something random. Her period is also 2+ week delayed, so in the back of my mind, I'm wondering (about 2-4 times today so far). She also joked, are you worried. To which I said basically "run it".

Gonna work out on editing, post production for the youtube veelogs better. Super not tech savy. I expect ep 3 to be far better than 2.

That super sucked. 80%s couldn't hold for like $6K pots. And I was up $4K at one point.

Managed to scoop back nearly 5k. Really done for the day now.

Being down only $8K feels like a regular "bad" day. #whew

March's Total Profit w/o RB $8865

I was stuck in the beginning 4 tabling, then finally was down to 1 table. And for some reason, I got murdered on that one, being in for nearly $19K. A $50K March month seems like it's slipping away, and quickly.

Oh well. Still glad I'm just in the positive for the overall month (for now).

=[



I actually played a $10K pot and managed to scoop it, but really tired to find it rn.

The downstreak slowed down at least, I was stuck for another -$15K earlier at one point. Crawled my way to nearly break even, and just sigh called it a day. We're on the brink of turning negative for the month w/o RB...

Back to 5 digit profit for month, #whew



Was shocked that my diamonds were actually live (without diamonds cannot call, this was borderline high enough for me)

Needed that one to stop the bleeding. Done for the day, headed out for some tennis & food. Fun low stake home poker game at night most likely unless GF too tired. Then its hearthstone grind.

Might just be overthinking, but I feel/think that with the introduction of a few more pros, specifically one (that I semi-know of), he's swinging like $50,000 to $100K a day (he plays like 5x my volume). And applying max pressure to the small private pool. It's been on and off, but today for instance, there's no game other than a quick 30-40 minute that died after that same pro joined. Normally a week ago, these games were running 18 hours a day, every day for a month straight.

One guy is killing the game single handily, or the game is starting to dry up. Either way, hopefully it picks back up tomorrow. Seems like no poker for today.

So I mentioned ITT that there were 2 like millionaire/billionaire Asians who were down like $500K in a week easily. Anyways they have recently disappeared from the game, I guess they either had enough, or lost enough. With that being said, the new pro is driving all the action. When he sits, everyone sits. So it's not all bad. The other fish/whales wants to battle him, and I just get in between here and there. Not sure how much more I preferred the previous premise. But this guy will clean house (I assume he would destroy me 9/10 times in all situations).

swear on my life one of the milli/billionaire has been gone for two-three weeks, as I typed this, my discord pinged me right away, X is back. Spooky. Apparently I manifested him by thinking about X. What the odds.



Scoop 6 card with AQ high. Lol.



Just a random hold. Semi lazy to go through for a bigger HH.

Fighting For Rakeback

So today I basically played on approx 15-20 different tables, one of my longest volume sessions in this whole thread (though there were a couple nights I played from morning to morning). Anyways, I was super stuck over -$20K at one point.

I'll post a random SS or two later, gonna go eat. It's 10pm, I haven't drank a sip of water, juice or food since waking up in the am. (Just how my body works).

Was up $6k, down $2K, then crawled up a tiny bit. Generated my rb for the day, so it's chill.

Hoping to really close out the month strong, but have a busy weekend/next week ahead. Not sure how much volume I'll be getting in.

woah

sick stuff man, enjoying the updates

what are you using to black out parts of the pic?

GL

What I do is screen shot, then paste it to MSPaint, then I cut out the background to get the color, and paste over. It's pretty basic, but does the job.

Recently I've been trying to expand my editing skills, so hopefully I can make it even more smooth soon. One of my friends recently said, thank goodness for the new change, the white black-out was unbearable.

Thanks

Was really lazy to update at the end last night, got super tired, played a lot of small sessions here and there. Went degen, cross-booking against my friend who was gambling on natural 8 slot machines online. When you're up so much money in life, you can just burn money at slots knowing...

Anyways we started small with $20 bets, then I was stuck like $800 betting against him. Managed to get unstuck and come out like $250 ahead. Was also betting on random players in 6 card plo, every 20 minute, who would win more money. I bet against a known whale, who ended up winning like $30K in the first hour. He was holding on me strong... It was a fun degen night. Then i ordered uber eats carls jr, but my gf ate my 2/3 my order. She left me with two tacos and wedges.

Swings



I lost.

I'm really trying my best to volume up lately, but man it sucks to lose the profit in an attempt to earn more ev/rb per hour, esp when the game is so swingy. I was up like $10K in the morning, then I was stuck like $10K (so 20k swing), and I basically did another smaller cycle of that during the evening.

In comparison, one of the other pros is up $80K yesterday and like another $60K today. I know we all have our skill level, but he's showing me what's possible. Ofc there's another who's down just as much, with half of it at a lower blind. Who knows.

What A Day

One of my longest grind days in quite some time. I played in the AM early, was stuck, finally up $3K and called it quits before the sun came up. Slept for about three hours, guess my body was excited to play again, and went at it. Within 2 hours, was stuck like $15K, so ($18K downswing).

Spent the entire time grinding till late lunch with the gf, was stuck at $4K. Then before my first hike ever in my life (on a trail), I ended up $800. Was very excited. Finished the hike, my gf was busy, so I went back to the tables. Closing out the night nicely ahead.

I played as many tables as I could, even .50c/$1 tables, $2/4, and $5/10 which I haven't done in forever. Managed to eek out a few hundred dollars more from them.

I had some $10K pots, but I'll save the footage for the yt vids. This is the last hand before I locked it up.



Another $1600 in the piggy bank.

Feels good the $20K swing is up north. Also rakeback. Delicious rakeback

Heating Up The Morning



One last profit before locking it before lunch time.

I'm sure you can read the tone and text of the past few entries, man it really showed my emotional swing. I did cry/rant a bit earlier on =X

Managed to scoop this very lovely $15,000 hand. I was stuck across a few other tables, so this really helped me a lot.
