cruising speed mode activated...

Well I hope I will keep this pace for a while, I'm happy with the results so far but I have enough experience to know that it will be difficult to keep such a winrate, 8BB/10 with no rakeback is all I'm asking for, I'm enjoying the ride and feeling at ease at the tables. I know I could already move up but I set a challenge to myself and I want to reach this 1,5K$ mark. Slowly but surely.

I make this one short, I'm aware this is not the most interesting blog but it's all I have to say, happy with grind.

here for the graphs:





and the recap:





"Rake me" would have been a great song title of Nirvana...

I read so many run bad post...I feel a bit ashamed now...

I'm sure you agree with this, as a serious reader of a lot of poker blogs, I find rare the graphs, stories, where players are running extremely good. Maybe because we are all afraid of the judgement: "What a luckbox" "No skills, pure luck". But come on! At some point we all ran good and we just don't like to showcase or we always forget and prefer to focus on the next downswing.

Well, I've decided to enjoy this moment when everything is going smoothly and my way...It's so good to feel untouchable and to make all those whales pay back. Yes, there is some kind of revenge feeling in this.

I honestly can't think of specific good beat or 1/2 outers (because yes we tend to forget those hands) but I have to remind once again that I'm using the "Cash out" option, not bragging about it because I know there no statistical reason to do so but it has helped me a lot to reduce variance and to keep my mental high.

I'm still able to put some volume in the weeks to come and I will then spend a month in Bali (Luckbox again)...I take the opportunity to ask if any of the shadow reader has any information on this beautiful island regarding ability to play online poker?

Here are the graphs:





and the recap:





Almost reach the 2K$ Rake mark...should I cry?

There are much better ways reduce variance and keep mental high, F.E. playing a bit lower and having bigger Bankroll. And both of those are much cheaper in already high rake games.

I have some regs (s**t-reg) that take cashout and I play slighly diffrent strategy vs them.

Good to know reg can adapt to cash out strategy! I will have to be careful, but at PLO25 most of players are clicking buttons
