hey guys,

I'm an 18y old student and started playing poker about half a year ago.
Since then I've build a bankroll to 340$ from freerolls 888 and now started playing on stars.
My main game atm is NL10 6max and I will be taking a 3bi shot at NL25.
I realize that this is quite aggressive but I feel like I can be looser with
brm since I don't have living expenses and can rebuild at NL10 if necessary.

GOALS:

move up to NL200 6max
play 1000k hands a day
post daily updates and interesting hands

Unfortunately I don't have my 888 hands anymore but I will be posting graphs
every 10k hands.

I'm off now taking my NL25 shot and will be reporting back tomorrow.
good night folks

so I played about 1.5k hands and won about 80$ plus 10$ rb
this win rate is obv not sustainable but I will happily play with a little upside
variance
I am quite happy with how I played however here are some hands I've been thinking about:

hand 1


I think I played this hand pretty terribly...
turn call is bad because I'm way behind villains likely ranges
getting it in pre seems way better than calling to me

I'm not sure if shoving for value bad here?
If he also plays his sets and top 2pair like this I'm way ahead of his range

I feel like not shoving river is a leak because there are no hands he calls 3/4 pot and no shove imo...

@FranFran95 thanks

so I played my first 2.5k hands of NL25 and am now still up 80$ after peaking at a little over 100$.
Bankroll now sits at about 430$.
I feel like I have to work on my ability to stay focused because I always start spewing around in the last 15-10min of the session and lose half my profits

Overall I am happy with my play and hope I keep running good...

ugh first losing day today, profits back to 56$ without rakeback
I guess I played fine but was on the losing end of set over sets a couple times.
bankroll is still at 420$ but graph looks ugly now
going to play to one more session today and hope to run a little better this time
