Bankroll: $200
Moving up when having 100 BI for next level, consider myself a bankroll nit but won´t deposit any more Money for playing poker.

As the title shows i´m playing $2NL FR at FTP, singletabling so it will take a while to move up but im not in a hurry. Will post stats, hands, strategy etc in this challenge. Will update more soon after my first session

Can remember back when the thought of 4+ tables seemed wild. No rush, you'll learn a lot playing 1 and keep your variance low while doing so. Before you know it you'll work up to multitabling at your own pace and love it. Good luck.

Thanks everyone! Acutally i´ve been 24-tabling at Stars a couple of years ago but now i want to start over with basics and learn poker by only playing one table at the beginning, but yeah probably will add tables after a while.

First session at FTP was kinda boring, only played like 48 hands and ended up with -$0.35

Bankroll now $200.35 (+$0.35)

Kinda carddead first session, ended up playing like a nit 9/9. These are the only hands i actually entered a pot

QTo, as i see it a standard raise from the button and get called by a 21/4. Not that many hands on villain but assumes hes raising the top 4%, lika TT+, AK and AQs. So consider hes limping range to something like 33-99,A2s-AJs,KTs+,A4o-AQo,KJo+

I flop a open ended straight draw but i Think the board is kinda wet so i dont cbet this flop, i also stoved it afterwards and if i get the ranges right hes ahead here with 56% vs 44% so i Think this was a good check and try to get a free card. The rest i Think played by itself.

Next hand, KJo on the button also a standard raise but get 3bet by a nit, 8/8 with a 3bet percent of 9. Equity vs his range here is 34% probably worse as i dont Think he will end up with a 9% 3bet stats cause hes so nitty.
I almost only calls with 22-88 here and shove 99+,AK cause hes short.

Third hand, AQs in UTG+1, also standard raise and gets called by SB. Who´s having a 20% coldcall stat which i consider a kinda wide coldcalling range.
Against his range im also a underdog with 48/52. If the board was dryer i would cbet this but Think this is fine to check.
