So my last thread ended with me taking my roll to 10/20 HUNL and running air into top set to reach destination busto. Good times, good times.

Well since the new month is approaching I thought I would fire up again and try and take May by the horns.

Goals
1. Play 50k Hands Deep 6max
2. Be shotting/playing NL50 deep at months end
3. No HU.
4. Make a FT.
5. 10k Hands Omaha 6max

Since I busto'd I took some time off, but have played some hands this is how the end of my Month went. Also looking to play some hands on iPoker in May with a nice RB deal.




Current BR: $1,100.47

NL:


PLO:


The NL deep games were quiet today so played some Omaha, didn't get lots of hands in but got some.

Played average in Holdem, mainly because I played some NL25 (as opposed to NL25 deep), played bad and ran good.

Feel like I am learning lots about OMaha and getting much better and more comfortable.

Roll: $1,145.69
Hands: 3022

Pokerwise had a horrible weekend, didn't play enough hands and when I did I played terribly and ran meh.

On the upside my good friend was in town and we got loose on Saturday night, I broke my 7 year no vomiting streak which was a downer but it happens, also raided the poker bank for $$$$ so the roll took quite the dent through bad play and expensive booze. Good times were had by all though.

Roll: $460ish

Graph to come tomorrow.

This week NL5/10 deep only I think. Also new rule one cashout per month and it can only be for 10% of current roll. So I have used this months early (and went way over 10%). Also this week I will get to play lots over the weekend as I am at work and at my job I am able to play poker, provided everything runs smoothly, which it does 95% of the time.

Weekly goals:
1. 15k Hands Deep NL. [ ]
2. 2.5k Hands Omaha. [ ]
3. Write some player notes. [ ]

Monthly Graph post weekend....

Spew

So I am also going to try some BRM as of now I will only be playing games I am rolled for 20BI NL Deep, 40 BI Omaha. When I have $1000 I will begin mixing in NL16 deep and drop back down when/if I hit $800. Giving me a 5 buy in shot. If I need to I will reload so I can keep playing NL10/5 deep, hoping for that not to be an issue though.

Omaha I am playing PLO10 for at least 25k hands. So I am not going anywhere there.

Tournaments I can play anything I like as long as I buy in with T$ won with Fpps.

My roll: $562.56 (topped up)

So have been pretty down in volume this week. Haven't felt like playing but am firing up for a big weekend also I want to be able to play NL25 (Deep) don't like missing out on those games so I am going to top my roll up to $1500 and play from there with my previously discussed BRM. I will be playing my current level until finish a session with less than 20BI's after that I will drop down until I have 25BI's for the level.

Also am signing up to RIO and am hoping to watch 3 videos a week.

My roll:$1500

Back on the grind....

Hold'em:


Had a few regs pick off a couple of bluffs at my biggest limit (NL25), seemed to know what I was up to both times playing perfectly, which sucks. So have noted and will have to adjust my game.

Omaha:


Didn't play so well, but ran good. Hooray for variance.

EV result: +$7.13
Result: +$104.46
Hands: 4,182

Signed up to Run It Once today and found some really good videos, made notes to watch a few of Lucas Greenwoods and Cameron Couch. If anyone knows any videos I should watch would love some input. Will watch some Omaha videos in the coming days, still feeling pretty lost a lot of the time.

Am thinking about playing some NL25 zoom, but can't until I have bootcamped my Mac.

Keep finding myself in spots like this and not knowing what to do....

On review I don't think I should be betting here, I thought it was a blocker but just looks super weak, I should be c/c or c/f and on this river vs this villain I think it is a clear c/f everything gets there on the river, hands I beat aren't jamming over me.

Anyway will post this in the uNL forum.

Overall happy with the day, didn't play great but kept the tilt under control. Though that is easy when you are running good. Looking to play same again tomorrow.

Horror start to the day:

Fold PF, to flop raise or to turn Jam all are good spots to fold

Just watched DJUNKELL's first improving your exploit skills video.

Found it to be pretty inspiring the level and depth of the notes he has on opponents. I am making a new goal for next week to make some notes on regs at all levels and use PT4 notetracker to it's potential.

Firing up some Omaha shortly.

Wow, did not bring my A-game today. Spewed 3-4 stacks in horrendous bluffs, like actual 0% bluffs, will post the worst one, for self shaming purposes. As a result I finished about even on what could have been a good day. Though I didn't tilt too much, played less tables and thought about what I was doing most of the time. I ran well below EV,so I could have been up more, there is a silver lining.

So that was a big swing and a miss, but after watching that video I think I will take some notes tomorrow or monday evening.

Next week Goals:
1. 15k Hands 6max deep [ ]
2. Watch 4 RIO videos [ ]
3. 5k hands Omaha [ ]
4. Post at least 1 hand a day when playing and comment 5 a day [ ]

Managed to squeeze in a session this evening...

Played a quick session after work, started out really positive, felt I was playing well. Then the deck turned on me and probably started playing my B-game.

Have some history with this reg and he had been 4betting me frequently and light.
