Insane volume you beast ! Inspirational to all mtt players.

Good luck Sunday

Ty bro!


Sooo... I havent really been doing anything in a structured way a all. What i have managed to do, which i said i would, is going through pads course, taking notes and studying similar areas myself. Besides that, balls to the wall grinding as usual. Wrapping up a sunday sesh of like 120-130 mtts at ABI higher than it should, and re-entries were way out of line. Graph of the sesh (some games sitll running, for example b55 which i took 11th in for $500), but also some bricks obv. I shipped a 55 hyper for 1.8k, 2nd in a 109 party pko for 1.8k, 6th ipoker €200 for €700ish and a bunch of f2ts . Session below, then month and some interesting (or not) things:

Sunday session (missing some profit from ipoker, stars, and missing some running games too):



Ran like this on stars, gonna be hard to produce meaningful results, but was just one flip away from entering b55 ft with a big stack still, so atleast theres that:



$100+ Games are still fairly unknown territory for me, what i do know is since i ran very well earlier this year ive dropped ALOT (relatively speaking) in them and am running really raelly bad in those for now. To illustrate this is my month (Whilst not running fantastici), and then month if you take those games away:




MTD:


MTD no 100$+:


Todays biggest cashes: (im 2nd in the party one)






EV bb is usually around 10 +-1 which i THINK (im clueless) is pretty solid, esp considering the amount of hours im playing, i could def increase it with another approach. Oh well. For now my issues are swedish regulations (til june i think, but they might just go oh one more year btw!), i have a tiny party roll, tiny ipoker roll. Almost all my bankroll is on stars and its not at a level where im comfortable playing alot of 109s-215s because i do need some "variance free" money to be in a good spot to go full time for real when i graduate in june (if i make it there), so im not comfortable shot taking like crazy and swinging amounts that actually bothers me. Issue here being how much i love sundays, and scoop is just a month long sunday on steroids

For this week only thing to follow is no 109s+. Focus on stars, play alot of shitty ones, padding that roll with 2-10k would be fantastic, if not for scoop then for the next time i plan to try and make the step up again. Also play ipoker/party to both build those rolls, but also to lower variance further. Im fine with letting loose a bit on sundays if i can follwo these guidelines overall. For now thats about it, a few flips in the other direction and thats a 15k graph and everything is fine and dandy Overall i feel like im doing ok, but i do kind of feel a bit lost and just guessing my way forward regarding studying routines etc. Sleep & diet is gonna be fixed, just need to go shop food for a month and im set! As for all things poker, I guess ill learn by trial and error....

Gl out there

How’s pads course so far?

You really needed to quote his entire post to ask him that? lol...

Good luck OP and thanks for updating regularly, always a good read!

Hey!

First, ill agree with the guy under, try and not quote all of it, it becomes so cluttery =)

I love it. Its the kind of good where i dont want to tell peopel about it because its too good, but at the same time I feel I owe it for creating such a nice product. Buy it dude


Thanks, helps when you guys chime in, even just for a GL! Very quickly when i see no posts i dont bother

So ive grinded probably top 10 most mtts this year for sure now right... had a sick day today, shipped 109 sonic for 1.7k, 2nd 55 marathon, shipped the 88 10k on party for 2.5k or so. Ill just show it, im forgetting a bunch of my bowlsss:




Feels very good! Starting to turn this boring ass month around. MTD is this:



So not great! But i ran really bad in end games, esp 100+, so its very standard. I played too much (beoming a serious issue lol..) but i also picked up studying a bit. Really gonna try n chill w 100+ and grind for scoop! Gl out there

Well done Chariot, keep up the good work.

Which hole cards cause you the most trouble?
I think we all have one or more, I know I have.

Thanks!

No hand comes to mind, but the QQ vs AK is not very fun (either side) as its usually the one that occurs in huge equity spots

Played a solid sunday today, took 2nd in a 109 on party early on for 1.1k, then 4th 109 starter for 1.5k, 8th 109 on party for 400+, 4th 22bb for 1.5k and all the other cashes, made day 2 with a sad stack around 15-20bb in milly (only took 3 bullets ). Bubbled-ish 530 big game JJv66 and semi-bubbled a 3.2k seat ak vs aj to end it off, but cant complain really.

Month starting to turn around:

Just read through the whole thing from the start in one go, interesting to see how you've progressed through it all.
Look forward to future update and best of luck.

Good luck this weekend C.

With regard my previous post I was thinking more middle pairs, maybe its just me but they always seem to get me in trouble!

Wow man, what an story and such an inspirational mtt-player you are. Keep it going and thanks for showing us this adventure of yours! GLGL

Layout what one week of studying looks like for you I'm curious.

his response
Hi, well i have been really bad at studying individually, just recently made it a routine. I usually review my deep runs, look at postflop/icm spots & now bought RYE masterclass which im gonna go through this month i hope. The coaching was the single most important thing for my game for sure. I use icmizer, equilab, flopzilla & recently got GTO+ as well.

Cool thread man, have you shared your Ipoker name? Probably played a bunch vs you.

Cool if you’re not sharing, gl

Thanks m8

Thx! Heh just fold pre and its no problemo!

Thanks alot for the nice words!

Heh yeah im pretty garbage with structure and routines so its a bit all over the place, doing pads course at the moment and reviewing 4-5 times/week, getting better slowly but surely i guess. Usually try to do 60-90 min before grinding and putting most focus on being consistent with it.




So, ive played a few smaller sessions trying to skip most higher stuff to pad the roll a bit for a big april. Chopped up the 88 on party today for a solid winning day, didnt play amazing but ran well!

Hey, missed this one. Thanks! My SN on ipoker is aviciiii, but i dont play much on there at all.

Yo yo.

Put in a last session for the month, took 4th in the 44-8max pko, 4th 55 8max pko, 17th 109 battle royale, 19th 22 pko turbo 18th 55 6max turbo, 17th 77 magnificent, 14th the 88$ on party and some more f2t runs that didnt want to reward me. Got my ass handed to me on party and did well on stars. Very happy that this month is over and done with, verrrryy grindy month where i just didnt run great tbf. Atleast we dug ourself out of the "hole" at last, graph is missing some cashes since im updating directly after my session, would guesstimate it landed at 7.5k$. Not sure if ill play before sunday, probably! Gonna try and up the study for a few days before we go in tho scoop & powerfest, very ***** exciting month ahead. Gonna fire as many 109-215s as i can (selling a bit for them) and maybe more if I do well early in the month. Not looking to get buried heaps, everything feels way more expensive when ownrolling. Managed this one to not lose (i think):

Sick graphs and sick volume! Loving this thread. GL with SCOOP

Ty m8 =) Couldnt fall asleep so luckboxed another hyper:

Turned the sesh in to a nice winner!

Put in another session today. Very frustrating in many ways, was big cl in big 109 & 55 marathon w/ 20 left in both. Also sattied in to partys 500 andfted centurion with no chips after losing 99 vs A2o & ATo for heaps on ft bubble. Lasted a hand or two before i had to leave that ft! Also took 50th or so in 109bb and a few other runs that just didnt want to materialize. Took 6th in hot 27, 14th big 27, 30th hot 33 etc etc yada yada. Probably gonna sharpen up some things and focus on studying (knowing myself ill probably play too) and be ***** ready for sunday. So many huge events this upcoming month, and most likely result is heartbreak, but fk its exciting! Hopefully saving all the run good for the series this month.

Whilst i was writing that i was building some stacks and it looked like maybe i could close again, came in as overwhelming cl on this one and out in 6th after losing 3-4 all ins. Frustrating but what you gonna do. Took 20th in the 55 turbo on party too.

beautiful march grind man. love how many you play. i dream of this in the upcoming year. Grind grind grind! Haha

Im curious what your opinion is on playing times. Would you think playing a night time would be less regy? Im trying to figure out a schedule and I’ve been looking at night play on ps/gg/acr anything after 9pm est.

Ive always thought night time for a micros player would be a lot better since the field size is less and usually less reggy. Ofc prizes are smaller.

glgl this month brutha! i really hope you get a scoop win

Sick runs Blom.
Obviously painful hitting the crossbar so many times, but obviously doing plenty right to get into those positions on a continual basis.

All the best for all the series' running this month, look forward to the updates.
Keep up the good work

Thanks man, was a bit over the top but its funny how motivated my education makes me, because i know what i absolutely dont want for my life. Really trying to tone it down a bit, atleast ive kept up with studying so far. And this month i would play lower and less tables i said, well abi has been record high around $50 and games are already closing in on 300. Gotta structure some **** for this month!

Just finished a long grind so cant be bothered with timezones, but im assuming thats off peak? My advice would be play peak ALWAYS if possible, dont be afraid of tough games, esp not on micros/low stakes its all soft soft soft. Yes variance gets grosser but EV is alot higher. Buy some coaching or something too, that was probably my most important step. Looking for options myself to get another coach as i try to progress from 35-45 abi to 50+ comfortably.

Appreciate it man!
Send me your skype in pm and id be happy to give input on some hands etc if you want.



Thanks! It does suck yeah, been dealing well with it 95% of the time though so theres that. Also helps when you had a sick heater before, its crazy how fast you forget how it felt to win the big flips alot


Thanks alot, seeing new posts in this thread and all the well wishes motivates me to keep updating!




Played a loonggggg brutal sesh today, will give a proper update tomorrow (its 8am so technicalyl today) on the session and plans for the month.. Gonna throw in some charity free-rolls, anyone have an idea of a good site/cause to donate? Usually just pick something, but kinda want it to go to something good instead of 80% in to CEOs pockets. Study day incoming, and then lets go in to ***** warrior mode. GL everyone grinding

Yo!

So reviewed for like 4h saturday, then got the itch to grind so hopped on. Blew 2 great stacks in 215 SKO & 215 scuffle to finish like 15th in 215 sko and 10th in scuffle. Today was scoop and i got a bit excited, played abi $55 which is too high for me, obv had to sell to quite a bit of mtts but it was very ***** fun (after atleast). Ran so ***** bad for alot of hours and on pace for probably my worst day ever. Then something happened and we chopped up the 215 deepstack (i had like 18m vs his 3 or w/e when we chopped), and i wasnt done there, im assuming party heard me talking about scoop so much or theyh saw my disgusting party graph and decided i deserved better, came in to gladiator ft with a healthy stack but ran JJ in to both KK & AA quite early to leave me short, then lost a 40/60. No complaints from me today Had a few meh fts too like 7th 109 6max pko, 8th 33 turbo etc for not much! Lobbies and a fun hand or two below, enjoyyyy.

Yo yo!

Wasnt gonna play today, but whilst waiting for a friend that was coming over to do some school stuff i played some sats, binked what i thought was a seat in the $530, but the coffee had not kicked in so i satted in to a $530 satty for the 5k, lol. Bricked it but was fun, would have been sick to get to fire a 5k I have played around 5 $530s (all this year basically) and one $1k where i busted first level with AA pre, so that one i didnt quite get to enjoy Well, the other one was a €109 sat to €1100 irish open main, and i made it through to day 2 which was instantly after. Gtd €2.1k and a 280 field w almost €300k up top was pretty damn fun to get to play! Came in and did well, chipped up quite nicely. Lost a small one w AQvATo, then had a hand where i open AA from 50bb mp/mp2, guy to my left with similar stack 3bets and i call. JTxr i check/call a 33%ish bet. Turn Qx (grossssss). So its JTxQ, it goes check check. River i block 230k in to like 900k and he jams. I tanked, was leveling myself a bit maybe but my gut feeling said call, i block hands that i would lean towards turning in to bluffs (not saying its good or right, just what i think i would do), still my gut feeling was screaming at me to call, but last sec i folded. Maybe a bit damaged from all the lowstakes where fold river is worth more as advice than any course out there . Really would love to know what he had, either way i have to respect his line because i had no idea what to do really and he kind of owned me either way. After that i went very card dead and then jammed 11bb or so w A9s in to two callers, ended up going HU vs JJ who flopped a set and i was gg. Took it well honestly i just really enjoyed that kind of event and hope i get to play more in the future. But first i need to prove myself on 100$+ games overall, in which im up but over a sample of less than 1k games aka. meaningless.

Besides the two sattys i shipped the early big 55 and a bunch of runs and also fts in decentish and small mtts on party (doing all the work there and getting absolutely murdered on stars).
