Once I reach $280 i'll give myself 3 buy in shots at 10 NL zoom.
Also adding 1 more goal to the goal list: Review hands daily.

I was reviewing some hands from 2015. Is this a shove on the turn or a fold?

sizing dependant...

Dont bet bigger otf because the we'll have an awkward spr ott if we do that meaning a turn xc will commit us. Poker isnt red/black flawz... Saying 'ch/c turn' w/o any other info is just dumb.

I like xc otf more than betting tbh

Putting in the hours is pointless if we r not putting 100% effort.
This is what prolly is going on. I need to play with more intensity

Hi update:
Yesterday i played 1500 hands and lost (again) 1.5 buy ins
Cut to 3 tables yesterday
Adding one more goal to the goal list: NEVER EVER use the fast fold option
Think fast folding is a form of overconfidence that leads to being on autopilot.
Not good.

You can use the fast fold option, but only use it when folding is an extremely obvious play. No need to wait for it to fold around to your SB if you've got 83o, there's no way you're ever playing it (assuming you don't have huge samples on BB, which you won't at micro zoom).

08-25-2016 , 11:59 PM
Hi update:
Today i only played 900 hands and won 1 buy in (finally)
i played the 300 hands at 10 regular tables instead of 4 and 600 hands at zoom 3 tabs.

OP, why don't you post about what you're doing to improve your game?
08-26-2016 , 03:42 PM
ok TDA i will.
First i am trying to widen my calling range from everywhere in position and out of position. Some cases i didn't even had a calling range
People think i am trolling because i say 3b-or-fold in a whole lot of situations pre SPECIALLY OOP although i mean it 100% so i know there is a serious leak there.
Punctually i started defending with suited baby aces from the big blind. Now I defend all suited aces, all suited broadways, and all suited connectors down to 76s
I am flatting a lot more bvb with hands that i used to just fold like 87o, 98o, T9o
as of 3 days ago i started folding 22 vs utg raises.
I am floating a whole LOT more OOP
I am floating 3bet pots like once every session or at least trying to
Also i am trying to recognize when the regs float me and counter attack x/raising turn
and i am experimenting when they float me oop i RR their river bet (looks strong)
Also i am charging more money to this guys that just LOVE to call 3bets (basically everyone at 5nl zoom).
They open $0.15, i 3b $0.50 IP and $0.65 OOP, this is likely to be terrible but is the way i am adapting and punishing this guys for calling so many 3bets.
I am treating min opens the exact same way, i used to 3b to $0.50 ip or oop vs min opens not anymore
i cut to 3 tables zoom (for the moment)
I review hands once a day before the sessions. Before i would only review hands if i was loosing. Now no matter how good i feel about my game or how much i am up for the month i review my hands. I do a like a 20-30 sec meditation right before i play in front of the computer.
This forums and this thread are keeping me accountable which is huge, but they r also like a source of pressure to succeed because i am telling the world i am gonna be at zoom 100 NL by 2018's second half

And the usual note taking i am good and diligent about that, sometimes when i see someone playing like a friend i can't conceive they they don't take any notes

TDA i think i need to be at 10NL asap more players at the pool at all times and more players per flop always than zoom 5nl

right now i have $222 once i reach 5000 coins i ll trade them for 50 bucks hopefully i would have won at least a buy in to be at 10 nl with $280 and to speed the challenge
Thanks

''When thinking about whether or not to check or bet you also need to think about the additional equity villain gains when you check and he checks behind. Also, thinking about what value hands and bluffs he has in his range and how he is going to play them.''

i am copy pasting this to remember
