The first news is that NL10 IS OVER!! I finished the 50 buy-ins of NL10 in 22k hands. I am very happy with this achievement and I never expected it to go so fast. I also managed to make more hands than in the first part of the month, which was another goal.

Results:




Now it's time to prepare for NL25 where my goal will be to make 60 buy-ins. Regarding NL25 my first big goal is to increase the volume compared to this month. This remains the biggest leak that I have in my game and it's only up to me to change it.

The second big news I want to share, especially for the people who follow me, who like what I do and would like to improve their game:

I'm officially going to start coaching. As you already know, I've been coaching a follower of this thread and it's been going so well and I'm having so much fun coaching that I decided this was a good time to take it more seriously.

I have already received several messages on Discord and from now on I am willing to coach NL2, NL5 and NL10. My results at these 3 stakes were amazing and I would like to help people who are really interested in becoming better players and crushing micro stakes. The price will be very affordable and it was designed for players who play these stakes.

For people who are interested in receiving coaching, just send a message to my Discord: Confucius#8197.
If you don't have Discord you can follow me on my Instagram and any questions you have just ask: https://www.instagram.com/confucius_96/
very nice dude! i hope that you do well in NL25 too, and hope to get there soon too!

I think it would be fair to tell people that you have really own kind of definition what amount of buy ins is beating. In my last month graph (found on my topic) there is 65 buy ins below ev running and that’s not even record.

Just to think that last month you were having problems with NL2. What an evolution.

Congrats Sage!!

Hi guys, today I bring you my second success story of my coaching. BSpinoza was one of the first players to ask for coaching and after 40k hands we decided it was time to make the jump to NL5.



I have really enjoyed this new project. All the players who asked me to coach have been very enthusiastic and I feel that I have some players that are going to have a bright future.

If you are interested or have any questions, contact me on Discord: Confucius#8197

Not sure how I missed this thread, but this mistake won´t be repeated. Definitely sub'ed, pretty sure you´ll reach small stakes and even higher in no time, just keep up the work. Also loving the successes you´re bringing to other uNL players. Which sites do you play (no problem if you don´t want to go public on this)?

Thank you so much for your kind words my friend!! I'm having the time of my life by moving up throw the stakes and helping people from this forum to do the same.

I play every site that I can, so PS, 888, ACR and GG.

MOVED UP TO NL10!!

First I wanted to say that I'm not playing many hands and I want to be able to play more in the next stake.
But overall I'm happy that I could beat NL5 after struggling so much in NL2.

Here's my NL5 graph:


Thanks coach!!!!

You haven't beat it. You have runned 25 buy ins above ev, what means you have shoved all in really marginally winning hands, just above flip and 60% and so. This time it has worked but when it goes other way and suck outing starts you are broke in no time. Also beating nl5 in old school way needs $250 to $500 and nowadays they suggest more buy ins.

50 dollar at 5NL = 25 buyins????

Hi guys, once again don't worry about Paisting please, now besides being bad player, he doesn't know how to do math. Sage made 40 buy-ins at NL5 and ran 10 buy-ins above ev. With 15 ev/100 we decided it was a good time to take a shot at NL10.

Everyone has their goals, and there are players like Paisting who think that you only beat a stake after 100 buy-ins. My goal is not to hold my students for too long in the micros. Of course we set containment measures if NL10 doesn't go well. Sage will have 8 buy-ins to play NL10 and if he loses those 8 he will go back to NL5.

I'm very proud of your work, in total we've done 70 buy-ins together at NL2+NL5. I have a good feeling for NL10.

Good job!

Hi guys, today I wanted to show you my weekend grind.

I had some problems that made me stop playing NL25 for a few weeks.
I played again this weekend and despite being positive at NL25 I thought I should play 1 week of NL10 before moving up again.

This was the result:



Very happy with the way I'm playing and I feel that since I started coaching I've become a better player, especially in terms of aggression (good red line btw).

Hi guys, today I bring you my week in NL10.



These results are from Saturday 23th to Friday 27th.

These are perhaps the best NL10 results I've ever had, not in terms of money, but in terms of stats/quality of play. I feel pretty confident so I'm going to open some NL25 tables again and see how it goes.

Have a nice weekend and good luck at the tables for everyone!

I´m the biggest bankroll nit, but even I feel the need to tell you this:

Move up, stop grinding so hard so low, you´re crushing 10nl so hard that it just makes no sense to keep grinding it for such a # of hands

Even though I didn´t do it myself (yet), this phrase remains in my head: you should really use those hot run periods (you´re running hot, you know right?) to climb the ladders as quick as possible and maximize your edge where it means real $$$$$

Hi FazendeiroBH, I was already playing NL25, but I had to stop playing for 2 weeks and decided to play only NL10 this week. Now I'm going to start putting in some NL10 + NL25 volume, and if it's going well, I'll put more NL25 volume than NL10.

I feel that my game is better than ever, but now the difficulty will also increase.

Micro Stakes Coaching for Low Price

I started giving coaching to micro stakes players who are struggling for a price that I think is realistic for these stakes since I saw a lot of people asking 25+ buy-ins to teach NL2.
These are my results so far:

You can PM me here or add me on Discord if you are interested and need help with the micro stakes.
