Hey guys, I've been staked to grind 20nl on the revolution network, and I'm starting a thread just so I have a place to post my thoughts and be accountable for volume & playing well.

I've been playing poker for a while, I used to be a HU player, but the traffic on revolution @ HU is pretty low so I thought I'd learn 6max and try and move up stakes with my staker and hopefully one day be a midstakes grinder.



This is the graph so far, I started ~2 weeks ago, with rakeback it's close a to BE month for me, however at the start of this, I was running bad, and as a result I was playing bad, I had time to regroup and study a bit and the last ~10k hands haven't been as bad



Anyway I'm gonna be posting weekly goals for volume, and I'll be letting you know when my staker approves me moving up etc.

Goals for this week:
[ ] Play 15k hands
[ ] Finish Uni work
[ ] Analyze my own game, and the other regs games
[ ] Read Ryan Fee's 6max guide

session started of really well with +6BI, but then some fish shoves 120bb with Q9s and I snapped with KK, but obviously I didn't win, and then I proceeded to lose another 4BI.. ****ing hell I hate poker when I run like this and play bad because of it.. so ****ing tilting, all the players are so ****ing awful but just hit set after set, turn 3 outers in 3bet pots.. just makes me so ****ing mad that I can't keep a winning session going.. I get up ~5BI and then end up losing most of it by the end of the session, when you're already stuck it just drives me ****ing crazy

^I'm such a cry baby sometimes, i should just be happy I had a winning session lol

So I got a PC, and don't use my laptop for poker anymore, I also got HM2, I'll transfer hands over, but heres todays session
played terribly, stacked off with overpairs way too often I think


have a good day guys!

Overall for month(well since I got HM2):

Hey guys, unfortunately I dropped my PC moving it and it broke the HDD, so I've lost everything I had including hands etc.. I also kept my passwords on password safe and lost a lot of my passwords for stuff like forums etc so this is my new account

feels good to be back playing even though it was only a few days, small 2 hour session with a small win, always pleasant.
Gl at the tables guys!

after this one i had to stop playing cause i knew i wouldn't be able to play optimally I just couldn't focus, I mean the call OTR's bad, but I was just so tilted.

so because of tilt I've only played 700 hands today, I may put in another session in a few hours, but for now I think this is the day done.



hope you guys run better then me. GL!

Rostucko!



graph since I started 4 tabling

something weird happened today, I lost connection during a hand but i had just shoved, i reconnected and i had won the hand and HM2 has the full hand history, it just doesnt ship me the pot and on my graph/report it shows up that i lost the pot.. pretty tilting lol cause it obviously affects my winrate..

edit: I don't know why, but it was bothering me so i just deleted the hand.
