Already wrote small paragraph and realized this might actually be against tos.

But no, don't sim all spots, might just do quick lookup how ranges interact with the board and do some streetmathing for later streets and compare it to my visualization of ranges. Will sim some of the spots though, esp if its more about turn+river visualization or sizing things.
Played+studied like 10h straight today after sleeping like 4 hours #stimulantsgto. Had to check results as for the first 1/3 of the day as I literally had the worst run ever and was curious how much it is possible to lose. Dropped straight like 8bi in 600-1000 hands, having W$SD at 25% and WWSF like 30%. It was so bad that it was kinda funny. Eventually won some of it back and ended up like 3bi down, and was playing only 200z so the $$ amounts is pretty meaningless compared to what I have been playing last couple of months.
Really enjoyed playing today after the short break, couldn't care less about the results I had today as I just loved to play again. Taking small breaks from time to time is probably really GTO, maybe not this long, but like few days etc. And also felt like I actually already kinda got the groove back with the way I structured the play+study, which I found super efficient for the situation. Zoom is also so lovely and people at 200z don't seem too good so might find myself playing it a bit more often when too lazy to start bumhunting all sites. And for me 200z is probably even higher hourly than 500z, when 500z pool isn't superb (basically never), if I even actually can beat it.
Might hop back to 400-600 games tomorrow, or then I'll just powerplay+study 200z for few more days. Also might end up going drinking due to uni starting again and friends coming back to the city. Sucks to skip grinding due to hangover, but might be maxlifeEV, need to run some sims tomorrow for it.
Also revisiting the getting coaching idea, but not sure what I'll end up doing. Really would prefer to partner up with some crusher for longer term deal like a year or so, as getting sessions is kind of thing where even if coach doesn't purposely sandbag strat, he might not be as fully invested as he would if he had a piece of me. Actually got offered one by a good hs reg, but at least for now, our views of what a reasonable cut looks for my case didn't really match. Which is pretty understandable as my lifetime results at tracked NL200+ are pretty bad, due to having horrible start of the year and also I haven't even played NL200+, let alone NL400+ for any significant sample to show that I can actually beat it. Probably most players overestimate their skill, ability to improve and ability to rise the stakes. But just did basic math and felt like the value I would gain is not enough to justify the cut for a long term deal, when I'm fairly confident I will improve a ton in next 6-12 months even without coaching. Like I'm fairly sure I can figure out the stuff, including the exploit things on my own, but coaching would just make the process faster. Obviously there is a real possiblity that I'm totally wrong and should take the deal, but dunno, we'll see.
