Good point. Esp when we hold Ad

Had another bad day on Friday, so decided not to play yesterday.



Getting back to tables today. There are no interesting hands to commentfrom Friday. Everything went pretty standard. Here are couple spots:







I'm gonna kick some ass today for sure

I'm gonna move down to nl10 for couple days. I continue running bad. Had a -50 day yesterday, but hit the milestone, so the bankroll didn't change, but I want to regain some confidence lower, book a winning day and go from there.

The hand of yesterday. I was pretty tilted at that point, I remember that I wanted to fold the river but because nobody bluffs like that and still called.



OTR my range is capped to the only low flush. I don't see much sense in checking turn with any other flushdraw combos ott than 87 with some SDV. He has some busted OESD, some weak pairs, which he might consider bluffing also lost of sets and flushes + 3 combos of KTs for value. I have to defend a lot vs this sizing, so I suppose it makes sense to x/c the range I described in flopzilla. Vs optimistic C/B/B range I gave him I'm more than ok. Tbh this call doesn't seem as terrible as it seemed yesterday, during the session.





Planning to grind nl10 for 3 days now rest on Thursday and get back to 25nl this weekend. Will see how it goes. Can't wait to get back to the grind.

played some nl10 yesterday. Volume is a bit lower, since there was no action in the field after 2 AM.



Pulled this overbet bluff ott yesterday. Villain is 25/20, his 3b sizing indicates he's a bit fishy.



Because of the 3b sizing I have really wide range here otf. I'm behind in equity on that flop, so I probably don't want to overbluff it. So I made a x/r range of sets, two-pairs for value and NFDs, combo draws and QJss for bluff. If I would bluff all 16 combos of QJ it would be 2/1 (bluff/value) which could be out of line.

If I shove turn with entire range It's 1/1 value/bluff. Fold out JJ/QQ, sometimes even some top pairs, also all the worse draws which still have equity against me. Here's my turn overbet range vs his flop b/c range.



gonna continue 10nl grind tonight.

Great post - very good analyses!

Gl

Gl I play 10nl on Party as well. See you out there, and hopefully on 25 soon as well

Will follow

Thanks guys Having problem at 10nl, the zoom pool is the shortest at that limit ...

So last 2 days been showing really @#%ty volume. Also hit stop loss both days, which sucks. That makes it impossible for me to play 25z this weekend. Also I'm falling behind the schedule, so I will have to start grinding hard these last days of April. Starting with today.

Here's the graph of the last two days:


I messed up sizing here on the flop. And if I bet/calling turn, should obviously just jam it myself..



vs reg



vs reg. He tank raised the river. I thought he's never playing any Jx that way (given most Jx combos flat pre), he's definitely B/B/shoving all flushes and 5 shouldn't improve his range at all (didn't expect him to 3b 55. Which makes no sense. But I guess that's how they do it these days.)


Went over the hands now. Didn't find anything worth putting at flopzilla. Everything went pretty standard.

My sports routine is going well this week, I'm also on some low carb diet atm. The hand count this month is 65k at the moment. So the maths is simple - I gotta play 7 out of remaining 9 days (5k/day). After the challenge I will have to play another 20k hands to finish the staking deal. After that I have couple of ideas. Either to start grinding reg tables, or to give mtts a shot Not sure yet, what am I gonna end up doing.

so I had another stop loss on Friday's session. Decided to take couple days off. I'm so behind now. Not sure if I can still make it. The plan now is to at least reach the palladium this month. progress is 1641/2000. If I'm staying at 10nl it's gonna be challenging.



I made this terrible shove vs reg. The only combos I'm folding out are ones I'm already beating. Also I'm never taking this line with my value range.



questionable call down here. He doesn't have any bluffs except 78s (possibly) and I don't think he's barreling off AJ.



Here on the turn the guy is fos. I don't think he's ever taking this line with overpairs. So that's either a weak 9 (smth like 92/93/94), some semibluff type hand like 78 (which should bet out otf) or complete air.



Will get back to tables now. Feeling so lazy to play. Lacking motivation again. Hopefully will be able to put in some volume tonight. Although the games are pretty ****ty atm, the pool is only 50 now.

Hit stop loss twice yesterday


Feeling pretty confident about how I played it. There were couple questionable spots.

Here against this guy I'm 4betting really wide for value. Since he's got very high 3b and low fold to 4b. If he's shoving only AK, QQ+ I got 36.4% equity and I need 38%. So the call down is slightly -EV.


In this spot I should've folded the river. I block most of his worse flushes and I doubt he's shoving trips or worse flushes here. Maybe KQ with Qd the only scenario I imagine him having Qd, but that's like 2 combos. And I don't see any bluffs he might play this way, although he's 29/18 what can we know.



Will be grinding all the last days of April. Not expecting to hit 100k anymore, esp when I run that "great"

vs fish.



vs reg.



vs 30/15

had a nice comeback at the very end yesterday



won couple huge pots.

the baits



Pretty standard call w AQ there



Smelled the ruse there. That's why I didn't lead out the turn there. Also was thinking about folding river.



His turn sizing yelled I have a draw here.



I found that there's more fish in a pool when the pool is very small, like up to 20 ppl. The h/hr rate also ****ty at that time, but I'm really behind, so will play as much as possible last 3 days.

Had really bad day yesterday. And it sucks I have to play a lot today. Not the best state of mind for grinding.



Couple run-good hands





Couple questionable stackoffs.

#1 5k sample on this guy. His CO 4b is 20, range 5.



#2 Not sure about the play ott. His turn sizing looked so much like a draw to me.



#3 I think this one's is ok. Given there are some draws otf. Sucks that I block some fds.



#4 not sure what's going on here



Will have to play the longest session of the month today, so I can have a day off tomorrow.

The month started really good, but at the end I managed to lose it all. There are missing some allin hands, so overall I ran about break even.




got ~$500 from rb. But results are really disappointing. I will play zoom another week or two, to finish up the staking deal. Will see what I do further from there.

To sum this up:
[✘] 100k hands (92k)
[✘] positive wr; (break even)
[✘] watch 1 motivational video every day; (like half of that)
[✘] finish the book; (not even close)
[✔] update blog daily; (updated every grinding day, that was the initial plan)
[✘] 30 workouts; (not even close)
[✘] 30 days duolingo streak; (not even close)
[✘] Flopzilla and post 1 hand from yesterdays session everyday; (didn't flopzilla everyday, some days just thought hands through with out putting it on flopzilla)
[✘] run good (obviously).

Overall it looks pretty bad like really really bad Well the good thing is I hit the palladium @party. That boosts my rb quite nice.

I will end this thread here. I'm thinking to try out reg tables or even mtt when I'm off the steak. Will definitely do the PG&C either way. This thing helps me keep motivated and disciplined.

That would be it.

GLGL everybody

Still a nice blog so far! Thx for motivational vids, i`ll look them up and see what to get out of the tables
