hahaha yea man u need a SSD.

i dno how good ur HDD is, but ur probably gonna have problems when it comes to saving reports too...h2n super buggy and freezes when the reports are really big.

i had to make like 5+ different databases and then each database has like 3 individual reports, all of this was just to get the reports to save.

BR $7480

Games were kinda dead seems like Sunday nights aren't that good? Even had a 1knl GTO machine at a couple of my 100nl tables. Managing to get in some decent 200nl tables that's where the losses came from.

Got some very nice chips for the home game, host passes out on the couch after a few hours and an epic heads up match ensues. By the end we're fairly deep playing NLHE, PLO, even some PLO5 or pineapple. 10/10 lots of fun
Yeah that's exactly what happened, stats and report worked but it wouldn't save

BR $7870 2 tables of 200nl today both with fish on my right but otherwise tough lineup (two 2k regs). Good learning/growth experience at least.

January +$2490 ~33k hands


Less volume than December but probably more hours played. WR ~7bb/100 so less of a sunrun

Bought a 2tb SSD probably gonna need more ram

February goals:
28k hands
1$ profit
Become ok at HU
Have some grasp of 3bp exploits
Find the raises
At least 5k hands on Iggy

BR $8460, only 4k hands so far

Played a bit of Ignition yesterday after not generating rake for a while, they give me AA>AK twice and I win both. Definitely rigged

Gonna just measure BR in profit (not counting live earnings or GTO Wizard/coaching expenses), in for $780 so
+$7680

+$8260 feels like I've been running very well this month. At ~11k hands so a bit behind pace

I usually call light when someone bets big leaving just a bit behind, thinking they're trying to save a bit on a bluff. Seems to have worked but wanted to make sure

Bet river (jam)


Bet river (90-99% of eff. stack)

Fold freq is 10% (so never bluff here) which should add extra bias since bet folds won't get included in the weak %

The 26% weak comes from two sources:
(1) Villain calls
Weaker than the betting range since calling ranges typically block value and unblock bluffs
(2) Villain shoves & hero calls
Way stronger than the betting range since bluffs should fold

Formula for correcting, x is just what % of the shown range comes from (1) :
x = (villain call) / (villain call + (villain raise * hero call raise))
Shown weak = (x * weak when villain calls) + ((1-x) * weak when hero calls)

B-X-B for example you'd need hero B-X-BC, villain C-X-C %, and villain C-X-R %. Probably fine in a lot of spots to assume villain defends MDF and hero calls 0% weak. Raise it might actually be better to just use a similar line's raise % to not run into sample size issues.

Probably <1% here but it seems like it could account for up to -3% weak in spots

This should apply to every non all-in river spot right?

Right after I post this I thought of adding Villain calls to the H2N stats. Luckily it actually works and doesn't just show villains calling range. Sure enough the "gets called" range is 2% weaker. Bet sizing tab is blank unfortunately.

You're absolutely killing it man, at this rate you're gonna be playing high stakes by the end of the year. You have such an impressive understanding of the game for someone who's been playing for less than a year

+$8960, was sick the past week so only at 15k hands

Mostly new PC. Was looking at Pio 3.0 and saw they had a nice developer interface so planning to run my own sims. New feature https://piosolver.com/blog/2023-12-28-incentives/ , should be way easier than node locking for scripting but not sure how I'd use it past flop.

Overclocking didn't really work, CPU and fan speed just drops after a few seconds at full load even though core temps are low.

Annoying H2N moment:

Would be nice to have a stats for exactly 50%, 75%, 100% pot so the alpha and bluff % could be known. I think what's happening is that HH formats don't show the flop/turn/river pot size or the rake structure so H2N can't know what half pot is post rake.

+$8900, +$1810 for February

+$1650 on Global,14k hands. Been playing app games probably 6k hands but HUD hasn't been working well.

One is 7max 150bb 0.3bb ante with 20% minimum VPIP. There's a lot of hyper-aggressive fish with >30% 3-bet which is interesting to play against, but they certainly make it hard to hit 20% VPIP. Rake is ~4bb/100 post-RB.

Other is normal 7max, mostly Asian players which is nice since peak hours are different. 25/50 comes out to $0.71/$1.42 and rake is 1.5bb/100 post-RB. Way nittier game and the regs are a lot better.

Withdrew my balance from Ignition, doesn't really seem worth it to play without RB. Hopefully they can turn things around but it looks pretty bleak for 500nl+.

I feel like anonymity is more of a shield for my opponents than myself since they're generally bad at recognizing and exploiting imbalances. Even though I get pretty out of line I'm probably still more balanced especially before the river.

1. Either fold turn or call river is probably better


2. I don't like it, our blockers aren't as good as they look. They did show fold A8o though


3. I don't think raise > call here, and not folding to Mr. 44 PFR


Thanks man!

+$9750, 7k hands this month haven't had much time for poker

Some maybe questionable hands:

Vulnerable overpairs like 88 really want to bet flop here. We obviously need to be selective with our betting range overall, but this is a slam dunk bet, IMO.

Agree, although I'd probably still range bet this board vs a more passive fish since their range is very weak and I never 3-bet bluff them.

I happened to have more informative showdowns for how this guy plays vs check, there were two hands they stabbed trash and one where they checked back TPTK. Knowing that it felt close between XR to fold out equity or XC to let them blast.

gl in your grind!

+$11230, 1.5k hands last Friday and 800 today

Checked river in a spot I was fairly certain bluffing was +EV, but it would've been obvious I'm way over bluffing to anyone paying attention


What I learned is I should use my whiteboard

Much volume at 200?

Yeah like 50/50, games were pretty soft I guess the 1/2 fish came on and the good players were busy at 500+. Lost probably the most BB I ever have in a minute, but unstuck through pure skill and determination.

100k incoming.

gl man. I enjoyed the builderman podcast as well.

Are you using asianhandconverter? For me it has worked perfectly over like 4-5 different apps I've played on. My only gripe was that the HUD doesn't remember the positioning for players.

+$11560
Just Hand2Note 4 since it's free, but I do like DriveHUD better if I ever play on Ignition. Reinstalled the app and it seems to be working well but I haven't played much.

Yes just from sign in bonuses

Didn't know these existed I thought it always gave a JSNG ticket which I'll never use

+$12000, German player on an app game asked to play HU and I obliged him

I've had money just sitting in a checking account for way too long so set up a Fidelity account

Will put some in the market, and since "nobody knows if a stock's going up, down, or ****ing sideways" 2p2 can decide

- under $400 a share
- 1 pick per person maybe 2
- I expect at least 0.5% daily returns

may puts @ 2.5 strike $UP

I didn't apply for options trading so just stocks

It missed a $1k pot I lost (3-way all-in pre AA vs TT and 44) so no clue what profit is at now


App game was playing pretty wild had my biggest pot won and lost. They can straddle and re-straddle any position or just blind shove

3k hands on Global breakeven, played a bit of Iggy but stopped before I lost the BR to bots, colluders, and CFP Brazilians



Had a hard time thinking of many folds vs fish so just check called flop and turn


Still time for stock picks

in reality just having a diversified portfolio with S&P 500, some classic blue chip stocks, and 10-20% risky investments like crypto is probably the smartest way to go rather than just randomly picking stocks
