Maybe I'm wrong, or my thought process is flawed, but if I call on the turn, I think I have to call the river too? In my opinion, river is a blank and doesn't change anything (seems unlikely he has 78s and 67s as played, considering is a low frequency defend pre, to begin with)

If I know my opponent has passive tendencies, I would fold the turn, otherwise call all the way.

He shouldn't raise much <5% vs my pot size bet and K ott is really for my 3betting range. The only value hands he should raise if any is 77 and since river is 7, he value combo drops from 3 to just 1, which makes me want to call more.
The reason I call is sometime I saw weird raise ott with AJ and AT ott and jam the river which is the reason I don't want to fold. The only problem with this line is it is pretty nutty, but I never assign AK, KK to his range. If in a spot I know he has those hands, I can try to find folds.

Ya it is softer. You need to get used to anonymous table and shorter timebank.

Tonight I was testing some stream setup for the first time. And this session turned out to be a mental test for me.

nice wp sir keep it up imo

smart of you to move up to 200

Not trying to read into a 700 hand graph, but just wanted to say that there’s no need to rostucko/book wins.

I only say that as it looks like you stopped the session at your highest point (which would be the worst time imo).

maybe it’s a pattern and there’s something there

It's always feel good to grind it back when you had -4BI during the first half of the session.
Usually I set a stop loss of 3BI for one session but it seems my mentality can handle better than that.

One should never under-estimate the poker variance.
30-50BI up/down swing is normal.
30k-50K hands breakeven is also normal.
Your mental and bankroll need to prepare for that.

Two. Ignition allows max two zone tables. You can add two more reg tables if you want.

Hi BS, I am considering taking another shot at 500z when I reach 100K hands at 200z. Have a roll about 30BI for 500z. What do you think the biggest adjustment I need to make? Assume I have 5bb/100 win-rate at 200z, do you think I can still win at 500z? I plan to only play at prime time and only when fish in the pool.

I play a bit wider at 500z with my rfi openings and bb defense due to rake consideration, but other than that I do not make significant game adjustments. Just realize the regs are typically quite a bit better but the fish are all the same still

If you are playing this volume you gotta get a rakeback deal, you can get up to 25%
