There was also another hand where I checked back TT9 and you bombed turn and river really big on like a 4 and a K, and I almost heroed river but didn't. Idk if it was just the runouts but you put me in a bunch of tough spots, so WP.
I think they are both tough spots, in the first I have a very narrow and strong range (which does include some bluffs ofc). Which makes it very hard for you to call espceially since your hand range is very visable from the line.
The second hand your range is very weak so it's really hard for you to call down correctly in this spot.

fwiw you play way way better when your not mass tabling. Compared to other times I have played with you I felt like you were playing your A game whereas I have played you before when you masstabled and saw your C game

Yeah I think I maybe have a leak when it comes to never believing people when they check-raise dry boards, haha. Second hand was just misplayed I guess it's super obvious what I have when I check back the flop and super easy for you to barrel me off it. I think these are the spots where not a lot of low-stakes players are good enough to really exploit so perhaps I just wasn't used to being put under pressure.

As far as not masstabling goes, I think perhaps the most instructive thing is that you (presumably as someone who's not masstabling) were actually able to notice the difference between my A game and my C game, whereas I couldn't have said much more about you prior to that 6max table than "this guy is good and I've seen him on a few different sites". While I certainly think masstabling has its merits for cash/SNG players, I very much doubt I'll ever masstable MTTs again. Especially considering I'm probably up like $10k since I stopped doing it, haha.

I have this leak too. I think it's part of the over-all leak of not identifying what level your opponents are thinking on and thinking on a level too high for them... Probably one of my most spewiest leaks!

IDK really, that guy was ******edly terrible and his ranges were merged all over the shop...I can see why you called but I think I'd fold in that spot as he can be bluffing/spewing with the best hand a lot. I'd probably be doing a lot of checking back/taking free cards against a guy like that too and waiting for him to own himself when we have a pair or better.

Just made a pretty tilting/bad mistake deep in a $26 on FTP, pretty annoyed with myself. 9/16 in the 10r on .fr trying to make up for it.

Decent day today, made a few FTs and although I made some mistakes and tilted a little late on, pretty happy with how I played. Even won my first 180 in about 6 months (have only played probably <200) towards the end of the day. Can't complain at all about how things are going, but I do think there are still a lot of weaknesses in my game I want to iron out. Next month my focus won't be on watching videos, but instead on posting hands on training forums. I'll re-evaluate my goals once the month of January ends, but I definitely want to start improving more actively.

Meh day, 5th in the hot 8 on .fr, 15th in the 10r and 24th in the 888 saturday challenge. Looking forward to tomorrow, will probably take a few days off afterwards though. Feeling kinda burned out.

Games played: 1317
Videos watched: 64

Solid sunday, 4th in 75ko on FTP, 15th in 20 hyper on .fr, 5th in 3r 2x turbo on Stars, 4th in 33 turbo on Party, 74th in Bigger 22 which was kinda tilting. Just couldn't get a stack together late on. Really happy with the last few days.

Also a shout out to my stablemate SSSMBRFC2/C who's currently chopping the Bigger 109 for lots of monies!

How many videos do you watch a day? Do you rewatch any of them? And also I am kinda curious about how you're running in the games that have a 500 CAP, I saw you playing a lot of them and I was wondering what are your impressions about them.

It really depends from day to day. I'm subscribed to basically every training site out there, so some days if I'm not grinding I'll watch one specific series and really focus on it, whereas other days I'll have some less intensive videos or podcasts on in the background while I grind. So basically some days I get through 8-10 videos during my session, some days I only watch 1-2.

As for the 500 cap games...IDK really, they're nothing special. The 55 6max turbo at 10.30pm UK time has a great structure and is a really fun tourney, same for the 33 version of it at 12.15pm but I'm almost never online in time for that. The non-turbo versions of them (dotted all over the schedule) are pretty good variance reducers, and they are also pretty packed with mediocre mass-tabling low-midstakes regs, so although they can be pretty slow, they're good if you don't play many tables and enjoy being able to open basically every pot that gets folded to you.

There are two plans, elite and essential. And a new video is released pretty much every day for each plan.
Essential plan only have access to essential videos ($9.99)
Elite have access to all the videos, including the essential ones ($99)

Above ^^. Plus, frm what I've heard and seen, the essential plan is basically bollocks and nearly all the good stuff is in the elite. None of the big names and only some basic stuff mostly.

I took the elite sub after asking ginger if it was worth it and I would highly recommand it to anyone. Jackoon1985, grey31 and gboro790 videos are really good training videos

I guess you didn't, I haven't seen you for the last two days. Have you been chilling or studying hard?
