That feeling when you win an MTT is amazing, adrenaline like that you can't get playing cash games, but the whole MTT grind is way more demanding cash grind.
Although players are much weaker, it's really important to have a good mental game, to be able not to drop your playing lvl after 5,6 or 7 hours of playing, and to hardest is to endure variance and play day after day while you can't win ****.

Here is hand from HU against BencB, was watching him on stream and he got tilted how come I needed 10-15 sec to call this. He didn't say anything disrespectful but he was close ( I did have 6 tables plus this HU, but still think it's fine to take some time when you have pure bluffcatcher)

GG Poker - 3,000/6,000 Ante 900 NL - Holdem - 2 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (BB): 69.07 BB
SB: 19.26 BB

2 players post ante of 0.15 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.8 BB) Hero has 2 4

SB calls 0.5 BB, Hero checks

Flop: (2.3 BB, 2 players) 7 Q 2
Hero checks, SB bets 1 BB, Hero calls 1 BB

Turn: (4.3 BB, 2 players) 5
Hero checks, SB checks

River: (4.3 BB, 2 players) Q
Hero checks, SB bets 2.42 BB, Hero calls 2.42 BB

Spoiler:
SB shows A 6 (One Pair, Queens)
(Pre 66%, Flop 23%, Turn 14%)
Hero shows 2 4 (Two Pair, Queens and Twos)
(Pre 34%, Flop 77%, Turn 86%)
Hero wins 9.14 BB


Really interesting to see one of the top MTT regs thinking that this is a value bet. How he think that he has more than 50% vs my calling range(I guess a lot of MTT players don't even think about it), and what does he expect that I fold if he should get value from K high.



Was playing only cash this week, and will continue for some time, don't see much reason to play MTTs(Except for some Sundays) before some series start.

Do you offer any coaching? I would like to work with somebody from ex-Jugoslavija, less of a language barrier.

Atm, I don't offer coaching, but I do help and give advice to the players who play under me on GG/PokerBros(probably no other agent take as much time I take to help players having better results.)

if you have some question can always help so feel free to ask/send pm

Can also recommend Gale and Kiki, as I mentioned before working with Ja.sam.gale helped me a lot the last few years, I still have sessions from time to time with him and it's always refreshing although we went through most of that stuff while I was under CFP.

He always take time to answer my questions, and what I can see in both of them are engaged and provide very good support to their current students.

Tyty, of course I don't mind

September is in the books and it's my best month so far thanks to the lucky missclick.
All Min/HS MTTs I had 50% action for myself, and 50% was on stake with MU, but since that tournament was not in schedule, once I registered asked the backer does he want any action from it. He declined and I didn't even try to sell to anyone else cause I'm definitely not +EV in HS PKO SNG, which ended unreal lucky for after shipping it for 74k.
On top I had FT in 55$ WCOOP for 8k and few other deep runs so ended up profiting 80k on MTTs for myself.

After binking 74k backer was tilted that he made wrong decision for 2nd time since he started staking me, and decided to take a break with it.

After WCOOP ended had the idea to reach 100k month which would be a cool milestone, closest I came was around 87k profit for the month around 17-18th Sept but after that was just losing few days and played very little till the end of the month.

Cash: -3,4k$ +around 5,4k$ RB(RB from MTTs included) = 2k profit

For total 82k$ month



Plan for this month is to finally get solid volume, play from 2/4 up to 10/20 and most likely play little to none MTTs, so don't have any excuse not to play,

Although I give top deals, getting players on GG is not going as I was expecting so I might start streaming to get some players in order not to lose partnership deal.

What I'm looking forward most in the next couple of months is finally moving in into our apartment. Building is almost over, and furniture is slowly coming,

Funny how although we enjoyed in the current house, as the moving date is coming closer were more and more annoyed with it and looking for flaws that we didn't even notice before, it's only cause we're eager to move, so our brain find more reasons why we want to move.

Our apartment is under the top floor penthouse.




Cheers and Gl at the tables.

October report

Swingy month, despite having a flying start in the month wasn't too happy with focus and my playing lvl, too often wasn't aware enough during the session which shouldn't be happening. It's something that is happening frequently if I don't follow the routine to take 30-45 minute rest before the session and 15-20 minute warm up once I start a session.

This is the first month I started sitting at 25/50 tables, since I'm doing well at 5/10 tables on GG, and most of those regs play 25/50, sold 25% action to a friend, and decided to take a shot.

Played less than 1k hands there and down about 8k + lost 3k on ACR in a stupid 10bb game that I sit without knowing it's 10bb tables. Played 47 hands there and quit with 3k loss. An expensive reminder not to do stupid stuff.

Regarding MTTs played maybe 15 tournaments mostly satellites for WSOP Europe main and EPT Prague Main, in 1k€ for 10k Wsop qualifier lost AJ vs KJ with 6 left where I would be having more chips than all remaining players With 2 10k seats, so unlucky beat, would be really nice to win the seat from the first try especially cause I've won 1k seat though 108€ qualifier.

Results
Cash +11,1k after selling action with RB included.
MTTs -3,2k


First ever 10k+ pot won
https://gg.gl/dkvpu

For November need to work on promotion for BetkingsGG, don't want to lose the Partnership deal cause I didn't bring enough players so that will be main goal.

I guess I'll need to start streaming or start visiting local casino/private games to increase my reach.
The main problem is that many players I know/have connections already have acc so need to base my search on beginners, a friend recommended offering a staking/coaching deal to get this going. So if there are interested players feel free to reach out to me and we might make an agreement.

Cheers

MTTs are really crazy sometimes have feeling that if I give mouse to my mother she would do better than I do, and again there are periods when whatever you decide is good. This month I was luckily on that nicer side, played about 40 MTTs/Satelites and won almost everything. 2*10k€ seat for WSOP Europe main, and one bubble but got 5k€ for 2nd place, 5k EPT main seat+ expanses, 1k EPT National + exp, 5k Online millions seat, had semi deep run in 1k Irish main and busted 30th.
Spent total 12k on Buyins and won a bit over 50k for 38,5k Profit.

Didn't play much cash, still sorting stuff about the apartment, and picked up some cold so couldn't even play for 7-8 days, was sure it's Covid but tested negative on the home test and then on PCR. Even today after like 10 days I'm still weak and barely have enough strength at the end of the day. Hopefully I'll have enough strength to survive Rozvadov trip.

Lost 3,8k playing cash and got around 4,4k RB so positive zero, despite picking cold, my volume before that was too low, have a hard time motivating myself to play more, and will need to do something about it. If there are some good suggestions feel free to give them.

Tomorrow I'm driving to Rozvadov, plan was to travel alone, but on Friday skyped with 2p2 member MDMA hero since he was coming to Zagreb on one day, and we quickly agreed to travel together, it will be nice to have company on 8 hour drive, and feel I can learn a lot from him.

Will post some live updates here, but will definitely post more on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/komarac_zg/

MTT results: +38,5k$
Cash Results wRB: +600$



Year to date:
Cash: +87k
MTTs: +99k

Would be a nice achievement to have 200k+ year but considering that going in Rozvadov and will play 10k main, + some other big tourneys in December it doesn't look realistic.

Damn, forgot how crazy can live poker be. Days fly by, especially in places like Rozvadov where there is only casino and nothing else. I wake up in the morning go to casino and spend there like 12h per day.

Came here on Monday, after 8h driving went to dinner in casino and tested cash tables, played few hours very bad 5/10 table and lost 1k, dont think there was 1 fish at that table during that time.
On Tuesday played 1,5k 6 Max bracelet event, it was unreal how soft was that event, so many recreationals but also what were regs doing was just unreal, from start of the tournament was running pure, getting donations and had big stack, until last level of the day when I lost 2 big pots and busted before day finished.

After busting 6max sat on 10/25 table, 4 friends were drinking and playing 72 and 83 game where if you win a pot with those hands you get 100€ from each player, also it was played with BB Ante 25€ and lot of straddling.
After some time table filled up and game was super fun, but the best par came late during night when one player who was drinking on other table wanted to join even though table was already full. So he said he'll go blind all in first 5 hands for 1k€ and then play normally. Obv everybody agree and he put his 1k€, one player ISO him with AK, board runout all small cards and all in player takes the first pot. Next hand he again put 1k€ blind, one player ISO him with AQ, again low board and all in player scoop another 1k
3rd hand again he get ISOed with A8o board runout 24675 and fun player say to the A8 guy you got lucky and show 85 for split pot. After 3rd hand floorman came and ruined fun, told us that he can't play cause there is w list for this table and removed him,.

I lost about 2k€ in pots where I tried to win with 72/83 and payed about 1k to other players, ended session with 1k loss, which is fine cause most of the night was not making any good hands,

On Wed played shortly 5/10 cash then 500€ satelite for main cause there were no good cash tables and after busting satelite sat again on 10/25 table.
Game was more normal than day before but still good, 4-5 Italian regs were generating decent action. Was over 5k up at some point but at the end of the evening lost AK vs KK for around 3k pot then KK vs AA for 8k pot, and ended session with 2.5k loss.

Today played same schedule, 5/10 cash until satelite started, then 1k satelite which I quickly busted , and after 10/25 table. Game was very good again, and I was running good, which ended in 8k profit session. Will write some interesting hands but going to sleep now cause main is in 6 hours

Wish me luck

Just a quick update, have good stack for day 4, with 32 players left.
Great tournament so far, unreal how soft this 10k is, got some crazy donation every day, and that was more less enough to maintain healthy stack. Haven't been under 80bb since tournament started, till today when we start with 77BB.

Wish me luck!!!
