Hello 2p2, this thread is devoted to keeping me focused throughout this year, and I believe that as long as their is a forum keeping me accountable for bad plays and stupid tilt I will be able to move up through micro stakes.

I am indeed not a continuous winning player, I win in streaks when I 4 table, however when I go on a heater I suffer from winners tilt and become overconfident attempting to outplay opponents as opposed to making ev+ decisions. I play on party poker under the alias of ishoveucall, feel free to rail me whenever or table me. I'm a 6max player however I have tried other games, and feel that It's boring. =)

I have tried husng's however that was a long time ago and don't feel I have an advantage in it anymore, I'll post the graph for that none the less.






Several things you may notice from my graph is
1) I am indeed down alot of money, so how do I still have a bankroll? (deposit bonuses cleared along with bonuses due to volume)

2) You may have realized my graph is composed of 3 peaks followed by 3 downswings, it is what it looks like. Unfortunately, my coolers are also accompanied by tilt.




September Graph:







Plan of attack:

I will stop playing mass amount of tables and work on my game.

Stick notes will be posted near my laptop to remind me of common leaks I have discovered.

150$-300$ (10nl)
500$+ (25nl)



Daily Goals:

Play my 'A' Game; at any point which I start tilting I will leave the computer and go beat the crap out of my heavy bag.

Post every session graph, as well as hands which are misplayed whether I won it or not. Hands which contributed to the majority of losses that day will also be posted.




Monthly Goals

Maintain a decent winrate of at least 7bb/100 at 10nl

Take 2-4 tabling shots at a higher stake, with at least 15 buy ins, with 3 buy in of stop loss.


Goal by April 2011.

I wish to bankroll $2000 by April of 2011 as this well provide me with enough bankroll to play 50nl.

I will then distribute the bankroll evenly between pokerstars and fulltilt inorder to take advantage of the 600$ deposit bonus


Goals after April 2011:

I plan to then seek a coach to prepare me for the jump of small stakes no limit in which I will pursue as a part time job to pay my way through college and medical school.



Leaks which contributed to at least; 75% of my losses:

Set mining in 3bet pots in sense of underpairs

Shoving Over pairs (TT-AA) in non-3bet pots/ calling shoves without odds.

Calling 3bets light occasionally and playing to the end with top pairs ( AJ,AT,78s etc)

Calling turn raises/ 3betting with TPTK on turn/flop regardless of board texture and villian

Chasing Flush draws, Straight Draws to the end.

Watching two and a half men on my iPod while grinding.

damn.

Donked off from 450$--> 87$ today
went from 25nl--> 10nl-->4nl for now. .


>< time to rebuild will be taking shots at 10nl when im at 100$. dropping at 80$

gl sir

Just set my homepage of mozilla firefox + internet explorer to this


this'll most definately help with my downswings/coolers


25nl Hit me like a Rock --> Tilt was passed onto 10nl
Luckily I regained my consciousness and ended the day with an upswing



4 tabling is really going well for me.

playing in the 5k$ free roll on party

starting roll today:117$
going to be taking shots at 10nl dropping down at 90$.

This is probably my second time in my life playing a mtt, and well it looks like I'm in the money=D, as you'll know from my thread I suffered a huge tilt/cooler/downswing of 300 yesterday and hope this freeroll will give me some muneys.

Will be updating stuff from this freeroll. =).

up 5$ so far on my cash tables though; well was originally down 7 >< then won a hand with set>aa .

edit~~
Okay in the money now. . as the shortest stack,
Bubble play was intense!, both tables was dealt KK vs 22

Tourney Results; won 70$ in monthly freeroll

Losing hand: A5 vs QK

Flop KAK
Turn A
River K

Would post hand history, but since i left my seat and lost they didn't let me click hand history. . . (yeah party poker)

Very proud of myself today; limited to 4-6 tables, left tables with 3bet monkeys, Avoided Regs, Maintained good tilt control.

Ran 7.2 Buyins below ev though ):

Few Bad plays:
shoved a fd against set on flop 7d8d9d with AdKc >< against 99
shoved a straight into a very drawy paired board. (no flush though)
shoved JJ pre-flop, called shove w/ AK pre-(open shove)

oh well~.



Threadsaver of the day

Fist pump of the day.
Pros:Check Raised Flop as opposed to slow playing it like before Would've led off but I had a solid read on villian as he cbets 100% of 3bet pots.
Cons: Probably should've donked flop and induce a shove.
Cons: Shouldn't have called 3bet with 33

Villian's a solid winning reg 20/17 5.2k Hands =O!
TAG 3bet of 7.0
notes i have on him

Hi, gl, please dont tilt 25 buyins again.

As experiment play sessions of 30 mins.

Play 30 mins then stop, stand of your chair, do something (anything), and if you have the desire to play again, then have another 30 mins session and repeat.

thanks alot I'm using windows vista and postit notes on my laptop screen to refine my daily leaks everyday~ ,
thanks for the support!

I typically play 45mins and do a set of 70 pushups then repeat. Course bathroom breaks, helps to refresh =D

Also try to leave the table when im sitting with 2 or more regs.

Villian's a 15/6 over 100 hands

I guess checking quads on river is the best play to induce a bluff on someone who minbet? o_0

Sick day today~ up almost 7 buyins~ unlike yesterday's breakeven running(7.2 buy ins below ev >=[) will post graph in 30mins before i sleep

Good luck, keep on posting to help yourself and to entertain me.

thanks and hopefully by next few days i'll be 'properly' rolled for 10nl~ lately i've been playing with 10buyins ~ i typically don't swing that low, just run below ev with break even ~

Relatively Short Term Goal: 25nl rolled by Halloween~

50 Buy ins at 10nl in 1 month ~ hopefully. taking few shots at 25nl later on perhaps at 250$~

Well This is a good run~ keep it up and i just might be able to make top winners of september for 10nl this month! =D~ mayb october ><. . . haha

Leaks, well today few bad plays, misread hands shoved AK on blank board (3bet pot)

Didn't do anything too ridiculous like shipping overpairs without reads,~

However did take top 2 pair tte on 4 broadway board >< could've saved half a buy in there~.

Gotta learn to read 3bet ranges 0o Stopped calling 3bets in terrible positions with borderline bs like AJAQ.

Eh called a few 3bets with 55-TT~ multiway pots. . . i felt like there was enough odds but oh well typically i should fold these without a read~.


Won 2 buyins off some Reg~ [Rylan] go ptr him sick winning guy 0o. . .

Left tables when 3bet monkeys came up. . just fk it leave, don't even try to out play~

Highlights of the Day: 10 buyin : Ran with EV
