Challenge Graphs:

So Unfortunately I could only use the final 40 days of the challenge as a result of the Partypoker Software only permitting me to download history from the previous 40 Days. Here are the results showing the coloured lines, as well as Net Money from each position.





*** It is important to note that towards the end of the challenge (200/500NL) I focused less on mass grinding for rake and more on maximizing EV per table often playing only 2-4 tables - Money not accounted for in these graphs are largely made up of Rakeback

You're crazy. Look at that red line and blue line lol.

Hey man, I dont understand how your graph says you were at 0$ just 4000 hands ago?

Sick thread btw, inspiration you are..

I would like to know, is the redline pump in the end solely because you stopped masstabling the volume and focused more on exploiting your opponents OR is it because the 200nl/500nl games warrant alot more aggresion? Is there a shift between a blue line game (focus is on playing your value lines well) and a red line game (focus is on spread out aggresion across all lines) at some point where the rake is no longer such a big factor and you play with a smaller pool? Or would you say you pretty much stuck to your baseline the entire challenge and only made small pool/individual adjustments?

Lmaooo!!! Yeah I can't deny that :P

Thanks dude, trying again with a stream challenge and this one will prove to be more difficult specifically for me trying to balance everything but I'm determined to get it done.

The downswing/upswing experienced towards the end was largely due to me upping the variance/running longer sessions due to the fact I was running low on time to complete the challenge, however I still was rolled by the rakeback I gained spending prior time grinding throughout the duration of the challenge.

Very good question, I believe reducing tables had a lot to do with the increase in aggression/exploiting my opponents, however you are right in saying the higher stakes warrant aggression in the right spots in order to maximize profit. There may have been less table selecting and more "battling" between other regs. Adjustments made throughout the challenge were massive and dependent on the pools. For example I wouldn't approach a 10NL reg the same way as a 100NL reg, nor a 500NL reg; this applies to fish, whales, and recreational players in each pool as well as they vary largely in skill-set, strategy and overall approach to the game. My red line strategy is going to change enormously as I move up the ranks as players in the 500NL pool will make minimal mistakes preflop/on flops and generally will have a good strategy developed to a much larger game tree. In the lower stakes exploits are more noticeable and happen pre/postflop in many areas.

Thanks for the nice explanation dude. I have a tendency to over-bluff & over call abit which can make for some brutal sessions in the micros, luckily since Ive been playing HU those two tendencies have helped me out a little.

Please post an update of your upcoming streams ITT, will love to check one out.
