Hi Guys,

I'm Brian Delaney i go as bdel123 on pokerstars. I will be depositing $50 onto Stars on the 10th. I will be playing 6max No Limit Holdem starting at 2nl and moving up progressively when both me and my bankroll are comfortable for the next stake.

Bankroll Rules:

2nl - $>0 - $200
5nl - $>200 - $500
10nl - $>500 - $1,500
25nl - $>1,500 - $4,000

I understand that waiting until i have 40 buy ins at 5nl is very nitty but i feel that making sure i have a comfortable BR is an important tool to becoming a good player so i may as well learn it now.

I have played poker for a few years (messing around on 888 when i was underage) but only started to try to improve recently. I have been post a lot more in the micro stakes nl hands section over the last week and i am also reading "the poker blueprint".

If any one can help i am looking for a poker training site with good micro stakes content any suggestion?

So guys played a bit over the weekend got in 6918 hands. Could have been more but i have not played for 2 months and didn't want to over do it so was just playing 1 hour here and there. Obviously in the next week i will hit my 35k hands target (I have no reason not to).

graph for the weekend.



As you can see for the first 3600 hands i was playing to many hands and semi-bluffing way to much i started to nit it up after that and my graph speaks for itself.

1 of my target were to beat 2nl at 10bb/100 hands and currently beating it at 12.46bb/100 i think i can keep it up.

Targets - play longer session, get 5k hands in 2moro, keep up the way that im playing.

So guys i have for a few hours here and there today.

Obviously reached 5k goal really wasn't hard at all. I kept breaking session early because i was started to fell tilted or did not feel like i was playing good enough so today's hands were split into 5 session.



session 1 - started out just like yday playing well running well, stoped at a high point to go eat.

session 2 - played terrible spewwwwwwed everywhere look at the red line - no cbets were working i was having to fold big hands on river and so on.

session 3 - was playing much better but there just was not to many spot where i could make a lot like no coolers in my favor and no big setups.

session 4 - started terrible but i was determined to get it ack then had to eat dinner.

session 5 - started well then i couldn't win a hand at showdown my big draws wasn't getting there and i lost kk vs aa pre. as you can see i started building again then ran my ak vs aq for 60bigs and my ak vs aq for 100 bigs.

Overall today was a pretty bad day at the tables probably due to my 5hours of sleep but ohwell.

today i got dealt AA 26 times. won pre 13 times. biggest loss with AA 87c biggest win 96c.

2moro i set to play 8k hands.

So guys day 2 i started the session and was feeling tired but decided that i could pull through and its only 2nl everyone is terrible and got crushed. i am getting annoyed really quickly when playing some lines of the players are just crazy also i got coolered a fair bit qq vs ak twice i also run kk into aa but still i played terrible and need to sort my sleeping pattern out because playing of 3:30 sleep is not good.

will upload a graph later probably.
