Just quickly read through thread from start and admired your monthly graphs.

You were playing 50NLz in August and now you're playing 500NLz only around half a year later.

Mad props, you should feel proud.

And keep crushing.

100k BE/losing stretches are fairly common in low-edge, high-variance games. Also the quality of my play tends to worsen during those stretches which makes them last longer..

      You should seriously put at least a VPIP/PFR hud in your videos. I have heard from a lot of people that they dont watch them because it feels too weird at low stakes not having the most basic information(as when they watch they say their own action out loud)

      uhhh ****ty day. Villains were realising 10-15% equity every single time and I seemingly couldn't get a single bluff through. I didn't play as bad as the graph suggests, though

      It's fine, so because they won't be better players, but I will. :-)
      Actually, I really pondered if I should play on a non hud site at least for a month and stop clicking the buttons without brain.

      uhh another very frustrating day. I had to XF soo many rivers and again villains were able to realise far too often (angry). I'm taking tomorrow off to refocus, so I'll hopefully be able to finish the month strong.

                  I really haven't played since last update as I've been a bit under the weather lately with some sort of mild flu/fever. It seems a little silly to grind while feeling so fatigued/light-headed but I have done a bit of off-table work. I got my DB reviewed by Alan Jackson which I can highly (but also reluctantly) recommend. It's nice to have some concrete things to work on as well as confirmation that certain aspects of my game are very strong. I'm hoping to put in another session before the end of the month and will update again soonish.

                  Hi Ishter, I enjoy your vids - they are helping me come back to poker after a few years break. Some questions, if I may?

                  What do you attribute your rapid improvement to?
                  What video makers do you like to watch?

                  Thanks

                  Thanks

                  Good stuff (y)

                  'Study' groups. Basically a collection of similar-minded/skilled players who are actively trying to improve. Mostly reviewing HHs and session reviews, reviewing my stats and the stats/game of better regs. Also the occasional DB review and some range work. Oh and watching videos

                  Favourite producers - tough one - probably sauce, progressive, barewire and galfond (even tho I have no idea wtf is going on in PLO)

                  Played a longish session today as I'm feeling quite a bit better. It hasn't been the greatest end to the month but I can't complain. April volume will suffer as I'm heading to Japan in a few days then off to Australia for the better part of a week.


                  march:



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


                  quarterly update, ytd:




                  JUST on track for yearly profit goals but I'll likely fall behind in April. I plan to progressively mix in more 500z so I think the goal of 100k pre-rb is very achievable.



                  April goals

                  - Don't get sick
                  - 60k hands
                  - Maintain A-game
                  - Less tilt/rage
                  - 8k pre rb


                  GL guys

                  Can u explain me hand 10 K suited with runner runner flush ? In my opinion i dont like that call OOP on flop . But that raise on river was really bad. If u gonna make that raise on river its better to be all in . And why didnt you call that 45 in pot 318?


                  Nice graphs GL
