Vs Agro Donk



Flop float might be a bit wide, turn and river seem fine. Seen him cbet pot give up a lot so might be okay

First Try at 10nl Went Well, been playing most days but think I will be cutting back to just weekends as games are better and more fun

H1.Don't love this bluff on the turn really hate it on river


H2.With SPR and Limp pre Jamming turn seems good here, we are ahead of a lot of his range.


H3.Normally my size on turn is larger but think it makes a lot more sense to size down here.


H4.Should this river be an easy fold? He doesn't have too many 4X but pretty much never bluffing here and almost all AX just call


H5.Pretty Standard vs Bad short stack Reg

With Spr what is on the turn could Jam ourselves but can fold here I dont think


Stacking off on this flop vs fish seems pretty standard even with mono board we still have range advantage

Dropped about 2bi before the weekend at 5nl roll was 540ish.

+8bi at 10nl over the weekend, and my volume was not even that great

After seeing how soft the games are think I will just try to play more on Friday-Sunday as they are a lot more fun

Roll: 620

Can't really do graphs due to switching to uni, had a good month though doing very well at 4NL and 10NL.

Going to stick to them two for now and most of Feb, probably going to avoid looking at bankroll till the end and if we close to 30BI for 25NL we will move up.

BankRoll: 628.89

Was sun running at bit at 10nl and got the roll to 681.01, so took a shot at 25nl, was playing well but had one mis-click that cost me a buyin, so taking that into account I am pretty happy with the result.

Roll now: 667.76

Feb

Roll: 818.56 (+189.67)

Was planning on playing 5nl and 10nl through feb but was running good and happy with my game so moved upto 10-25nl. Feel very happy here atm. My volume is not great as always but playing an hour or two most nights. Not really doing much study, should probably think about adding some but for the games I play in atm its not really needed.

Going to keep grinding in March and hopefully take 50nl shots at some point in April.

Live home game went well this month and was a lot of fun hopefully that runs a few more times this year as have a big edge in that game.

Had another good session up a buy in

Roll: 925.13

Found a way to make a graph so here is feb to present (graph is showing GBP while roll is in Euro which is why they are slightly different)

March

Roll: 661.61 (-156.95)

First full month of 25NL and hit a bit of a downswing.

Think I have played well over all and still a lot of bad players at this stake.

The best regs are definitely better than I am so might be time to start getting a bit more studying in.

My game overall is still improving and the best it has ever been.

Probably wont play tomorrow and of to greece for a week the day after so first week of April will be off; but when I am back will be back on the grind.

Have enough bonus points to get 25 in rakeback but just going to hold it for now.

If I get a chance I will post March graph at somepoint.

For now not going to move down as feel I am still a winning player at this stake just need to get a bigger sample as my volume is not the best.

Happy grinding all GL

April

Not a lot of time to play poker atm so been mixing in some zoom.

Started with about $10 on PS and now have $28.75 playing 5nl with a low bankroll.

Unibet: 732.14 (+70.53) not bad as my volume is not been great and I have mainly been playing 10NL

Not much time to play but still enjoying the game when I do play and been trying to work in a bit of study when I can
