most interesting spot of te session: reg, 18/13 over 300 hands. i decide to peel one on the flop as i have decent backdoor equity and i can bluff a fair bit should he decide to check, pot control when i hit etc.
when he bets on the turn his most likely holdings are overpair type hands that he is fairly likely to give up on the river if i follow through as i can very credibly rep a boat here. interestingly enough the river came a likely scarecard for him as he will simply not hink too much about the fact that i never have a king here but boats or air pretty much. was gonna overbet if river was a blank but this made it a bit easier.

another interesting reg on reg hand:

i 3bet pre cuz he s a reg, my hand is disguised, he folds a bunch there and then etc. cbet standard imo. i plan to give up on the turn but when he checks back the turn his range becomes so insanely weak that 1.) i believe he would check his hand back 100%on the river 2.) his hand is obv a missed draw or a pair below the king 90%+ of the time 3.) if i bet i represent a bluff or a king or better. i chose to overbet slightly so that the call is even harder for him to make if he happens to be at the top of his range with like Qx or JJ but even those are insanely unlikely

noteto self: average NL5 villain is not a good thinking player. they dont fold--> no need to bluff. was thinking way too far in a lot of pots so from now on i ll play a tighter game until i move up.



bankroll: $189
This is True up to at least nl25. That was my problem at nl25. No need to make complicated plays

update#8

rostucko'd it all back and then some.

hands since that blowup session: 3345
profit: $51 including another $10 stellar thingy



decided to drop down from 12 to 9 tables and start taking notes and playing around with betsizes, more minibets to induce, more overbets as both bluffs and valuebets. made a huge difference. also i have been payig off less in spots where i used to be like ''meh whatevar i got top pair he is a fish i call....wtf he hit his gutshot?!?!?!?! tiiiiiiilt ''

my HM stopped working for some random reason so i m back to using pokertracker. kinda like it too.

will post biggest and most interesting hands from both sessions during the next few days. gl all

br: $313

note to self: when you have a draw and have to call an overbet to draw, fold. just fold. no seriously. fold

now some actually interesting spots from today :

villain was a pasive monkeydonkeyfish. pasive as in minibetcalling pretty much always.
i think i have to raise turn for value but when he comes back over i just dont beat sh*t.

this was one of the more interesting hands. villain is a reg on whom i had a note saying 'spazzes bind vs blind'.
decided to start calling cuz i know that he will use every ind of scarecard to bluff and valuebet worse sometimes even otr. i think he will 3bet most pp 99+ preflop leaving JT as the most likely valuehand. turned out he takes spazzaments to a whole new level lol

update#10

sick ending to the session. got coolered and sucked out on by two fish shortly after hitting the peak of about $33 in profit. was tilted, thought about quitting but then thought wtf i am deep and sitting on the direct left of a 400bb fish. closed all the other tables and strted hammering away at the fish. made a decent comeback getting paid off in full and folding decent hands due to betsizing tells. felt good then i lost a 250bb pot bith AK to AQ aipf Q on river fml lol
started hammering away again, then made a straight and ran it into a boat blablabla sorry for rambling, still decent session.

Hey

Im going with a 40 Buyin rule so I m getting there.

I actually meant to put that in the op but meh.

$0-$400: NL5
$400-$1000: NL10 (move Down at $300)
$1000-$2500: NL25 (move Down at $750)
$2500-$6000: NL50 (move Down at $2000)

Is close to what I hope to be doing. More buyins later so that the downers don't affect me as much and do that I can truly crush before moving up.

Thx

BTN was a 50/8 drooler over 24 hands. played a bit more with him after that and the stats were absolutely correct. given that i dont actually like my bet ott cuz he just doesnt care what i have and he never folds his little one pair hands which i was trying t accomplish. river is obv. turns out i was value betting all the way. had he been a little more capable i actually like my line cuz it keeps his entire range in otf, and folds out a whole lot more on the turn
