Last 3k hands or so on ignition have been a nightmare. Basically after getting moved down from 500, my backer has had me playing 2 tables at once because he's unhappy with my play. This is extremely frustrating, and I've been running really poorly, so have been losing a lot. He's telling me to think about stuff in different ways, which is fine, but frustrating to have immediate disastrous result. I really wish I could just be left to my own devices to some extent, instead of having somebody making knee jerk reactions every time I make an incorrect river call. Also, I'm still sour about getting moved down from 500 after a single session, I hope to be back there soon. But given how results oriented my backer seems to be, I think it's unlikely.
In addition to getting crushed on ignition, I'm down 10k already this month at 2/4 on the small club app game. He says there is no cheating or collusion, and he is basically completely sure. So if I am trusting this, the only way forwards is through the downswing.
In addition to this, my volume has been getting slashed. Because my backer is depositing only in $800 amounts, and I'm on such a downswing that I drain the account in 2 hours, and can't play until the next day.
So roughly 17k in makeup, and being told I can only play 2 tables at once is annoying. But he did say we can talk about early payout for this month, so that's something at least.
I'm not playing my best poker, but I'm playing winning poker. This just feels like a pretty sick downswing.
As for the actual play, I have been getting bluffcaught light, trapped when I have nothing, not getting to later streets with my strong hands because they are just folding early. It's pretty frustrating.
I have talked to my backer about getting vision and the upswing PLO course added to makeup, he said he wants to see another week of grinding first.
