You said on one of your first pages that with 1000$ a moth poker can be your main income of money , so what are your plans of that ? I gues 25Nl will be the ending line and strat cashing out from there or ?
Good luck man
Hey man thanks a lot and i am happy you like the thread too

There is no ending line for me, as long as i improve i will keep playing. I wont be cashing out anytime soon, and even when i cash out, i wont take more than 15% of my bankroll, i want to constantly improve and move up in stakes, and if i cashed out often, i wouldnt be able to do that.

    Why aren't u betting turn? As played tho calling is fine. Same with the QQ hand previously, u should be betting turn especially against that guy.

    Nice results, gl in november!

    Hey there, thanks and gl to you too.

    i didn't bet turn because MP3 was a whale with 60/2 , so if he had a Q with high kicker he should try to isolate the fish preflop . so his range looked like a pocket pair or a draw, and since he called that flop i think he had me beat

    dont know if my train of thought was correct. i guess i should have said that mp3 was a whale when i posted the hand

        At nl10 i learned a lot of new things about poker and improved as a player. I run very good and played on my A game 95% of the time.

        I hope 25nl will be a great experience too, and i am ready to learn more things from my mistakes there

        first day at 25nl went decent. it could have been my highest winning day if i didnt do 4 stupid mistakes. Also got my KK against AA in the last hand of the session.

        mixed some 16nl and 10nl deep tables also, but 70% of volume was 25nl

            if he had a set on the flop he would reraise me, only hand i could think that made sense was JK. turns out he called the flop with QQ for some reason. I guess i should have pot bet flop and turn. had only 7 hands on him
