Could yougo through your thought process on shoving the flop in hand 1?

At the time I was thinking that he probably raises my cbet with any pair+fd, twopairs or set. If I am to cbet this flop I think I need to be ready to stack off pretty light. I got decent equity vs twopairs and pair+fd but Im obv crushed by sets, but I think sets is more rare. I think when I have this aggressive style with preflop and a high cbet%, I need to be ready to stack off with hands like these. Im not loving the situation but bet/folding this flop is a bigger mistake then bet/raise imo.

I also think theres alot of merit to check/calling flop and that might be the best option here.

Think and grow rich is pretty good/motivational. If you like it I'd recommend The 7 habits of highly effective people by Stephen Covey.

I could almost guess that you read it already . Thanks for tip, will try pick it up after this one.

Been playing short sessions last few days and started winning again. Also alot less stress and anxiety so hopefully I can keep this momentum going. Will probably keep doing this for the remainder of this week and the start of next also.

Im moving in 2 weeks and will setup a pretty nice workspace and I will post some pics of that once its done. Nothing fancy but simple and clean hopefully .

Had a nice weekend with two days off from play poker. Spent some well earned time partying and hanging with friends. I feel pretty rested and motivated to get back into playing alot again. Due to recent downswing I started playing shorter/fewer sessions and its been working out quite well. Been winning steadily last week and feeling confident about my game again.

So Im looking to get alot of 1-2 hour sessions done next few days and then progress into longer ones around 3 hours. Still only playing PLO75/60 but once I feel like theres great value and my staker thinks its ok, I will hit PLO150 again.

Been playing a decent amount so far this week and graph is looking like this



Due to the downswing previous to this week, Ive been playing shorter session, trying to tune back my A-game basically and its been quite effective for me. Its lacking 1.5k hands from other computer and Im up around 1.700$ overall this week.

Looking to play alot this weekend and I will be posting some cool hands meanwhile.

good to see your doing well again. are you having any problems getting into the game (mindset) again after taking a break when playing 1-2h sessions?

Thanks.

Nowadays I actually play my best at the start of a session, which is different to alot of poker players who find playing longer sessions makes them get more into the zone. I do enjoy long sessions also but for me, its slowly draining my energy so I need to to pause when I no longer feel like I can bring my best.

I can play long session if all the factors favor me (not hungry, rested, feeling happy in general etc) but its a dream scenario, most often I need a break because for being tired or whatever.

PLO especially can be painful for my brain so shortening sessions when running bad is a good idea for me and its working.

Good to see you crushing again man.

Good luck!

I'm glad to see you up and running, keep crushing!

As for session lengths, I'm glad you have the strength to break your daily volume into many sessions. Maybe it requires less strength at Svenska Spel due to lower competition for seats, though. I'm not entitled to derail the thread with my session length dilemma whines, so read them in the noob thread if you feel like discussing them.

Thanks for support <3

Finishing my week now on the night to saturday. Feeling pretty happy with how Ive recovered after recent dowswing and Im happy with how things are working out. Will be posting a overall graph from staking begun (5 february-31 mars) next sunday.

So for the next 8 days I will focus on other stuff around my poker, my HUD for example. I will give it a makeover since I kinda realized Im not using it near enough of what I should be. Might post a screenshot of it on monday to see what you guys think. I will also work on getting some sessions recorded on tuesday and see how that work out. I think it can really be valueable for me to start doing that.

I will still be playing alot but my main focus will be on stuff around like I mentioned. Hopefully I will post hands more frequently also.

Finished moving to new apartment today and my station looks like this atm

Still lacking alot of things but it is sufficient for now and I will post an updated picture when its finished.

Will do a big update later tonight about mars and some goals for april.

Very nice Can't wait to get mine built and set up

Nice set up! Looks like you have a great understanding of your own game. Keep up the good work

Thank you, looking forward to see pics of yours.

Thank you!

So Im done with mars and heres the graph for the month:



February-Mars:



So I kinda ran really stupid so thats my volume was lacking. I think its a good idea for me to play less and study more when Im in a downswing. I also post less here aswell because it takes some mental energy and I rather save it up for co-ooping with the downswing tbh.

So Im looking forward to a new month and a fresh start. Some preminarily goals are:

• Play 150 hours
• Study 30 hours
• Start recording videos

Not very precise goals and it might change depending on how Im running and so, but these should be achiveable.

are you recording videos for a poker training site?

I doubt my videos are training site worthy Only for self purpose at the moment!

First session of the month ended up -800bb, happy with how I played tho. Heres a hand Im not entirely sure about.







This guy 3bets alot and are very aggressive in general. Might be a no brainer this spot but at first look, I was a bit confused tbh.

Finished for the day. Not much volume since I still got alot of stuff to do in the new apartment. Made a session review of the first sessions and felt much better with the losing part since its kinda inevatible in those spots who occured imo.

Probably wont be playing much more tomorrow either due to commitments but will try push for at least 4-5 hours.

Graph for the day

Given that villain cbets into a 4way pot, is that not going to weight his hand to be incredibly strong? (even if he is aggressive). He always has a pair + FD, or top set?

Also, with 2 players left to act behind us our jam can quickly become spew?

I think with 1.2 SPR and the fact that he cold 4bet, his range is almost always AAxx. I was thinking this at the time and vs AAxx I got an small edge (50.13%) and vs AAcxc I still got 35% equity. Vs KQJT I got 47% equity, KcQcJT its 34%.

When SB checks, Im not too worried about this guy anymore since people will most often play straightforward in this spot. Also CO is already all-in. Im never expecting to get a fold when I shove flop but I think that will surely close out SB and we got enough equity to play for pot vs BB range.

What stakes are you playing?
Also, you could post your vids here and get feedback.

Nice thread. GL!

I think you qualify to be a instructor (for more sites than pokercampus if the reopen), you seem to be a solid player

Im playing almost exclusively PLO 75/60. Did mix in some PLO150 at early march but ran horribly. Probably will start mixing in that level as soon as I feel comfortable again.

I will probably end up posting my videos on youtube at one point, but its a long way to go before that happens .

Haha Im not sure about that. Im currently not as good to explain my thought processes to anyone as a instructor should be able to, but Ive always thought about coaching in a near/distant future so I think Ive I put down some work I might get there soon. We will see I guess.

Will put in 5-6 hours of playing tonight after fotball practice, will post a graph and any interesting hand when done.

Aight cool.

What rakeback % do you have?

No rakeback at all on this network.
