Short summary of week 2, which was by no means a good one.

I managed to get in 30.395 hands, with a minor profit of 38$ which is obvious fine. But the hands was not there, i were not mentally prepaired. Had too much betting work to do, so i eventually had to accept that my body needed to rest.

This means im 24k/40k completed with NL5, which is good, but does mean that NL10 probly first will be on Thursday, which sucks, but i wont push it too hard, too many esport events i have to cover, betting wise and with articles that i write.

Week 2 graph


All in all good, but the -10 Bi day put a damper in it, if we could have turned that to a B/E day, the week would been quite insane.

Also managed to stream all 7 days, and followers slowly growing, so im quite happy with the outcome. Lets keep working!

Week 3 January 14th to 21th.
30k Hands
Stream 7 days min 2 hours
1h study each day

Even tho i need to hold 5.333 hands each day, to make NL10 by thursday morning, todays goal is only 4k hands. I simply have too much work to do, so if i have to use some of thursday on NL5, so be it.

Thank you so much for everyone reading the blog, and following me on twitch, i love you all very much for the support.

Little hand for todays first session, hopefully none of these tonight 19.00 CET

The guy was a MASSIVE fish, got the stack 3 barrel bluffing, and rivering trips... So i could never fold, he could have had A2 for all i knew, with how he played in general, just so typical he got it this time.... This sorta tilted me and made me end, this hand and the TT vs 66 loss, made for a 20$ swing, which sucks when im still trying to find some more green for NL5, so it aint that unprofitable of a trip.

The hand above made me quit early, im slightly tilted over it. Giving chips to the biggest fish of them all, doing the dumbest **** shown to mankind... So unlucky with the fact that he got it this time, and i have to bink TP. Called PF mainly bcus i knew he would be able to 3 barrel anything, and overbets lots. So if i raise PF i end up getting in, and often against suited connectors or minor pockets against a fish like this, so i prefer to find a pair and bust him... Or i thought i would bust his fishy ass....

Today went for 4038 hands, might get in a few 100 more later, but for now too tilted.

Tuesday 14th jan goals
4k hands

Got **** ton of work to do, not like real work, but esports related to my betting, so i can't get in more hands. One of the most profitable days, but still the day i feel like i ran the worst. The two hands above, and lots lots more, just made me feel so anoyed with how i ran, the pots i won was in huge terms non showdown, and a few big ones getting in good.

And here you all thought you were getting rid of me!

IM BACK BABY, i lost track of time last week, and everything just went haywire with complications, irl things i had to do and ****.

had a great stream on www.twitch.tv/IncrazyAA today, if you havn't get in there and throw a follow, i will love you for it.

Anyways the grind last week was insanely lack luster, i found close to no valuebets, and **** just wasn't how it was supposed to be. There was soo much betting related things i had to deal with, and ended up going to 3 birthdays this weekend, so basicly not been sober since friday.

We got back on the grind today! Got in 3.6k hands, **** didn't go all that well, but i think i have plugged some leaks, and i feel like we are just running a bit bad.

Graph for today


I will not be setting daily goals going forward, my days are simply too hectic, its just not possible. I will try to get in the time i can, follow me on twitch if you wanna stay up to date!.

Did not get in a crazy bunch of action today, but still found time for around 1750 hands.

Which lead to me getting a minor profit, but lets be honest, that was very freakin minor. The day started out running as bad as possible, and having one setup after another, but after 600ish hands, it started turning, and i found some good fortune.

Todays graph


Tomorrow is gonna be a pressured day, i have lots of obligations, which means im gonna have very little grind time, so im just hoping to get in a few K hands more, not sure if i get time to stream, will try to put in a stream.

If i find the time to stream, i will be posting here on the forum when i do go live, hopefully i will find a few hours around 14-15.00 CET, but can't make any promises.

All my sessions are starting to look a bit the same, i start out by making a big hole for my self, to slowly climb my way out of it....

Really wish i could run decent from the start, but atleast im soon done with NL5, looking forward for a fresh start at NL10. Even tho NL5 didn't give me the profit i wanted, nothing really to do about it, i ran like garbage for the most part.

Im behind ~660 hands before NL5 is completed, so NL10 will come tomorrow, and i think it will be streamed the first session on www.twitch.tv/IncrazyAA - Around 15.00-16.00 CET for a few hours!

Todays graph is ~2465 hands aprox with a minor profit

So we finaly put NL5 in the bag, it was not pretty at all.

But it was our last limit without a fixed bb/100 goal, which means, that i will be grinding NL10 until i reach my set bb/100, if i continue to run bad / play bad (whatever is the issue, for my low bb/100).

NL5 was completed with 40.015 hands, and a 2.62bb/100


I know i punted of atleast 10 Bi, though out the 40k hands, in random stupid ass mistakes.

Anyways lets look forward, im planning to study alot more in the future, my current working study is blockers, to more effectivly think about those in both bluffs, but also in bluff catchers.

Also im not quite sharp enough, to on the fly figure out exactly the combinations of value vs semi bluff hands an opponent can have, which is something i will be working on aswell!.

Got in my first taste of NL10 today, just bit over 1100 hands, i was too tired for more. Im trying to schedule my days better, ever since i stopped having a fixed schedule + goals, my volume + streaming time dropped of soooo significant, so starting the 4th February i will go back to goals, and fixed schedule.

Reason for the 4th, is that im getting my new house on the 1st, and i want to kick it off with a good weekend, getting started on remaking it. Basicly everything is going down, so i can rebuild it the way i want it, which means im gonna set off days for that too, and on those days the play + stream, will probly just be 1-2 hours of 2 tabling, or study sessions, whichever i feel like doing on the day. Maybe even just some 4 tabling reg tables, with a few tournaments on the side, who knows, i will figure out a way, because i know im gonna be exhausted those days.

Anyways the first NL10 hands are here


Cya all tomorrow on www.twitch.tv/IncrazyAA - wont be for more than an hour or so tho, got a busy day, a meeting at ~13.00 CET, and dinner appointment tomorrow evening, where i might get a few beers, so hard to imagine i can grind once i get back home. Will try to remain sober tho, so i might be able to get in an hours or so in the evening.

Just incase people are following, i would like to say that i have NOT forgotten about this.

Im just insanely busy in the weekends, and the time for poker is 15-20 min randomly, so i really can't stream.

Starting the 4th next month, i will be going nuts, and i hope the two people who read this thread will support me.

Im at ~2,5k hands on NL10, with a loss of 1Bi, struggling heavily in 3b pots, and spewing money for now, trying to fix some leaks with my coach.

We closed out January with a miserable 76k hands, and barely a profit of 50$.

My NL10 is so faar not going perfect, not the worst sitaution -1,6 Bi over 6k hands, but i have thrown away atleast 4 Bi by punting, if not way more.... I havn't been entirely focued the past time, my focus have been on my house, which i take over today in about 1½ hour!.

Looking sooo much forward to getting started, the project is gonna be awesome. Even tho there is a **** ton of work, but once im done, i finaly got a nice place to live, next to the ocean, and gawd its gonna be nice.

January graph


February will be alot more structured, but for the early start of february from 1-13th my days are scuffed as ****, since im gonna be working hard at the house project.

So basicly i will not be putting focus on poker here, from the 13th and forward, the CS:GO Major is going on in Katowice, so from 13-19, my focus will be on the house, until the major starts.

From the 19th and till the end of february, my focus is entirely on poker!.

So early february 1-19 the goal is to average 2 hours a day.

February goals is 90 hours, which should mean around 65k hands. Im down to 3 tabling for now, since i struggle with 4 tables for now..

GOOD LUCK To everyone else in February, wish you the best of luck.

To anyone who havn't followed me on twitch, go have a look at www.twitch.tv/IncrazyAA. The idea is to stream every single day in February, but without a fixed schedule, i will just see when i can get in a few hours, with my insanely scuffed days.
