Great results, veel succes

Nice thread.

Succes dit jaar!

I started over at 50NL with a 2k bankroll in October 2013.
Spent a long time at 200NL being a breakeven regfish who was under rolled and under skilled. Beating 500NL took me over 200K hands, but after that it started going much better, as I'd taken a much needed vacation.

Just little things when watching videos and watching good regs play.

I owe everything to Jason Somerville and especially Runitonce. That's not lame advertisement, I have no affiliation with them.

Thanks.

Thanks.

lol.

Dankje.

Dankje.

Broke my rule and opened Stars while still being tired and was tipped that Zoom was running. Played pretty badly but also ran badly...And then a bunch a of and even some rare HU play.

Would you mind posting your 50nl-600nl evolution graph?

*50nl-5000nl will be mind' blow'er !!!

GL and hope you battle forheyley for a seat at nosebleed soon

GL Chael

subbed and gl!

Thanks heaps for the reply! Pretty crazy move up the straks story. You dont hear many similar these days.

I played without a HUD at 50NL/100NL and 200NL for a while, so I don't have any stats of that stint, and I played without a HUD for weeks sometimes because PT4 is a **** product and I'd have to fix it with their support. I can dig up some 500NL stuff, but there's holes in it.

Thanks. For now I'll just play 5k with a fish if I somehow get in, or against certain reg line ups. I can't beat Katya, ForHayley etc yet, I'm not delusional.
95% of the volume will be 500-2k for now.

Dankje.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Sick thread already, what did you do before poker?

I was a kid.
Just playing sports, playing some FPS and not doing anything in school.


Another **** day today. Unhappy with how I played everywhere but the 3/4handed reg games, and I need a break tomorrow.
Life in Malta is also kind of boring. I'm mostly playing poker, going to the gym and once or twice a week I go out, so I need to find some other stuff that I enjoy. Any suggestions?



Barely down today, but I would have been up nicely if it weren't for this spew...

Read non-fiction.

I am reading 'Mastery' by Robert Greene atm, it's quite long winded and a bit repetitive but still would really recommend it. I haven't read any of his other books, maybe those are better.

Duckface contest with TimStone?

No comment.

GTFO with your intellectual non sense. JK

**** Tim Stone.

You weren't joking at all you little bish

Sorry, this thread just brings the aggression out in me

Yesterday was supposed to be a day off but I couldn't help myself and had the lobby open. Somehow, I got into some 5k tables, and won a bit.
With today's winnings I'm finally up this month. Upswing mode engaged.

Happy with how I played today, and I finally had fun at 500 Zoom. Got the Table Ninja trial and I really the software like it so far.
