Hello 2+2,

Been a while since iv been around, I used to post under a very similar s/n some years ago (it had one less p) - hi if any of the oldschoolers are around! I cant remember the login/email I had used before, sigh.

Long story short after finishing my Masters I ended up working for a few years. I missed the pokers pretty badly, I got to msnl last time round and did very well at 200nl. Although it has been about four years I am pumped to get back into it.

I will be playing mainly on Party with one or two other sites thrown in. Starting at 50nl to get going and hopefully moving up quickly. Looking to absolutely smash 2019 and take some shots at 5/10, will be putting in lots of work away from the tables. Yet to use a solver

Lifewise, im doing some pretty different things. I am on the carnivore diet for quite a while and loving it. Although I throw in a vegetable like once a week and maybe a beer every now and then. I do 30-60min of cardio per day, 30min of calisthenics per day, 20min of yoga, I meditate for one session and stretch for 10-15min between every poker session.

Couple of hands from my start today, ill post hands most days and a graph at the end of every week since im not checking that often.

        good luck bro. are you playing full time now or still working?

        hand 1, I'm not sure about the flop x/c against this large size cbet. you're only 100bb deep starting the hand. facing 1/3 cbet or having bdfd? I would be on board with a call or raise at some frequency. But imo calling here in this spot as played is questionable.

        Sup Eilysium, full time now bro. Yeah, butttt we cant win if we fold

        Anyone know how I can make HUD work normally on Party? or at least not jumbled player1-6 stats everywhere - they wont even lock in the right places. Basically playing hudless for now, not knowing anyones stats.
