Hey everyone!

About me:
My name is Artur and I'm from Brazil. I'm 25yo, and I play poker since 2010 as a hobby.
At 2015 I came back to the game but never got coached, so always mediocre results. At the end of 2016 I joined BTS and started crushing the micros as soon as I made the first changes in my game. Unfortunally given a lot of cashouts and mindset issues I didnt climbed for more than 50nl.

Before BTS I worked with business administration of a small company in Brazil and recently quited to work full time for BTS, at the social media part of the project.

About the Bankroll Challenge:

Well, since I've fixed some of my mindset issues I used to have, and restarted my roll to $150, I'm going to run a bankroll challenge, from $150 to $1500, which should be from 5nl to 50nl.
I will only play live on twitch.tv/bluffthespot.
I started the challenge at 02/01/2018.

Played very small amount of hands at 5nl, since I'm confident at beating the micros so many times, I jumped into 10nl with $150 and my shots went very well. Now I'm already at 25nl.

Here's the graph since start of the challenge:



Here's the graph from last week (highlights will be soon on youtube):



Besides twitch, i'll be documenting my progress on youtube with graphs, tips, highlights etc.


You can catch me live on twitch.tv/bluffthespot on this schedule:
Week days:
5pm to 7pm and 8pm to 10pm (Malta Time).



Cya on the tables and good luck!

Nice video's! Interesting to see. One thing tho, I keep hearing some 'beeps' in the video. GL with the challenge!

Nice doing a same challenge as well nl5 to nl50, i just saw you streaming btw

gl dude. I enjoyed the bit of your stream I saw. I think we chatted very briefly iirc. keep up the good grind sir

Hey man thanks so much for watching my streams and being around. About the beeps, yeah you're not the first to mention that, I think it's smth with my headset+obs. I'll try to fix it.



Nice man, best of luck with your challenge aswel!! Hope you crush the micros. GLGLGL

Very happy that people are enjoying it, thanks so much.

I'll be streaming today again at 5pm.
Bankroll is at $946


Also the master MMASherdog will be streaming today at 10pm

Time for some update, last week was a bit rough. I was between $800 and $1k all the time and I realised looking all the time at the Bankroll can be a bad idea for me.

The best thing of this week is that I realised to take a brief review on my game, which made me find some big leaks.

The biggest ones are:

- Opening too wide as explo bc people overfold blinds.
That's defo ok in general but I was doing that without enough sample and ending up too wide pos flop.

- Overfolding massively to river probs.
Started fixing and studying this topic, could be variance, but seens like my game already improved a ton after it.

YouTube video with Highlights of last week:

Since it's already tuesday and I'm a bit late with it, a brief resume of the week:
Monday and thursday was me, a bit up but still having swings.
Wednesday great session ending up with a nice winning day.

I think our bankroll is more then $1k now, I'll check on friday and mb we shot 50nl on saturday! Let's see


Let's keep grinding guys!
I will use the words of one of my fav viewers:
Attitude, Belief & Determination!! GOGO

Forgot to post the graph of last week aswel.
Also I'm playing on microgaming in order to get some rakeback and play a bit of reg tables with fish in my right. Altho thing are not going well there, I deposited something like 205$ and there's only $100~~ there.



Challenge:




As I said, I fixed some leaks and can't stop winning graph this week is beeeeautiful, we're close to finish the challenge!

Here we go, with the highlights for the third week streaming.

Moved up aggressively to 50nl managed some wins and now I'm struggling between 1k and 1.3k, the challenge can end at any day from now.

Let's wish for the best.

Thin valuebetting river :O

Heyyy guys!


Here I am again! I'll try to update here every week.

I can't take the smile off my face, I'm running super hot and crushing everything (apart from 50ff, my experience there was awful)

Graph for the week (until sunday)


Graph since the start of the challenge, I think we can officially say we are on a 50z to 200z challenge, what do you think?

I don't want to really keep making my roll public, but I think we can go like this. Also I'll be probably doing some cashouts during the journey.

Graph since the start of everything *-*




Cya guys, I might post some interesting hands during the week

brazilian beast. might be some rungood, but you've also worked very hard on your game. good job man.

vamooos Artyyyyyyy

That was a nice week indeed, had just one losing day, saturday.


I would be happy if I'd make that amount of money monthly, but weekly is just amazing.


Since it's the last dya of the month I will link the graph for the month here, I will still play tonight.



1.5k to 10k is real!


Some funny hands of the week
that was pure gold




daily quads

Sick results, man!
Vamooooooo

Another week has good, pretty interesting week to test my mindset.

Not running the best anymore, very unfocused, playing too many tables, the results are obvious.



Back on 2 tabling zoom and mixing regular tables on soft sites, working well already .

Cya!

Still streaming everyday on www.twitch.tv/bluffthespot

gl man!!!

New graph highly required

Subbed!

Boa sorte Artur
i like your stream and i might ask you some questions about BTS, I never had a coach too

Hey guys sorry about the delayed may upload.

$500 up on Betsson.


-----------------------


Sick month overall. A lot of doubting my game, spew plays, swings, bad beats etc etc.

Thanks to the good enviroment of coaches and another students I'm in, managed to put me on the right place and came back to my usual state of mind.

Still playing 50nl and still think I beat these games.

One thing I found very interesting is that I couldn't win on a very soft pool like stars.es but I felt like I can crush Party or Zoom.com vs the regs lol.

Anyways, feel like this month is that I made most improvement on my game and I'm very happy with it. I have a feeling that I'm gonna have a nice June and I wish the same to you guys!

Cya GLGLGL
