Hey its been months probably years since ive posted anything or put in any time with poker.
I use to grind nl50+nl100 on FTP pre BF. after that i withdrew and never really was motivated to play on stars.
I have wanted to really get back into it and decided i would starting back at nl25 and hopefully be back to where i was in the coming months
Also hoping to move back to FTP on relaunch

Heres first 10k hands at NL25 on stars. good start so far (i know tiny sample) i plan to put in at least 35-40k hands before moving up.

I work at crown casino as poker dealer which takes up to much of my time as well.

I would love if anyone wants to chat via skype or something about hands or if they are doing similar just PM me your name
GL everyone ill try and update as much as i can

Short session today worked 10 hours. will put in more later
Made a hero call and was good w/ AK high vs aggresively played flush draw against a maniac on the turn and didnt hold. but then got in good spots AA < QQ and J9 vs KQ on QT3Kx board.

Bankroll now on $723.
Will hopefully continue the run upto 1k or maybe take a 1bi shot at NL50 earlier

Hand from previous session
Villain is 19/16 from 78 hands. note effective stacks 120bb. have both been pretty aggresive at table. no other real reads

My raise size is bad pre i know yes but focusing on flop play. im not sure if villain leads with a set here and would go for c/r he hasnt donk bet a flop yet though.
75? 7xcc? not sure if he would take this line with 66-TT?

Small update:
Roll - $860.
Only put in about 10khands this month but i only 3-4 table as i focus much better on hands so i know my hands are lot lower than mass grinders but my results are still decent so far.
This month at NL25: +$518
Making my NL25 total +$747.

Still keen to do hand discussion strat talk if anyone else is playing these limits etc. Should be hopefully moving to NL50 in a week or two.

Fold. Pretty sure the villain is wishing for you to have an overpair here more than often.. I would only call his flop donk bet and see the turn and action there.

Yeah i found a fold. dont think hes spazzing with 66-TT and i think im against 75, combo draws and sets to which im behind badly.

Had first negative session for the month.
1153 hands -$77.94 at NL25.

Played some hands horribly and also had 2 coolers and lost a flip. so cant complain ive had a extremely good month so far still up 19bi at NL25.
Roll at 780.
