                NL2 is a mix of circus and insane asylum.

                Thank you man! i think nl2 play different than nl5 but i think i could have a good w/r on nl5 as well doing the same stuff(even tho my purpose is to improve)

                I just finished up a small session that i will include in 2morrow's update if i play sunday.

                So far ive played 25.2k/30k hand goal for the month,
                My mind's goal was to play half volume nl5 half nl2 and compare my hourly and how different each stake is for me to play so i can compose my november plan about volume/improve goals

                Again a mix of nl5 and nl2, im running super good in AIEV situations hopefully this mini heater continues






                vs reg with 24/20/18 over 40 hands
                dont really think he flats any Kx with that kind of 3-bet and vp/pf ratio
                i was wrong
                dont really know what to put him on the river but also i doubt i can fold with aces here when i x the turn to give him bluffs

                  last session of the month in the books, i wont be playing tomorrow due to overloaded schedule in school

                  Im pretty happy with my volume, winrate for this month, i started running badly in the end of my nl5 play so i think it will even out during november
                  Volume goal does not reflect on hands since i set a 30k hand goal and came short 2.5k hands but i have put in 29.2hours which is exactly 40 minutes short of my goal(30hours) , also a decent chunk of volume is on nl5


                  Month:





                  My goals for November will be pretty similar, i will try to go for 30 hours of poker but only nl5
                  I think zoom is super nitty/hard for me to beat at a decent w/r at this moment so i will try to get better and learn how to adapt with this stake.
                  Also my strong hands need to hold sometimes

                  Had to take a week off , will drop to nl2 because of some **** going on with my funds for right now, hopefully i can recover and move up in less than 2 weeks

                  Will also drop to 2 tables for some more focus, will post either monthly or weekly updates

                  goal for month is to do ~25 hours wihtout a hand goal
                  also will try for at least 5 hours of study

                  Have a pretty packed uni schedule atm and cant make more time/effort for poker

                  Cool start to the month, i played nl2 nl5 and some nl10(real degen story there)
                  I am currently underrolled for nl10 , as i would like at least 40 bi to play there comfortably, i was feeling super good and decided to make the jump, ended up winning 2 bi there. Ive been getting rekt in nl2 but i feel like its just variance and fish having nuts




                  Would u guys get this in OTT?
                  Both players are fish
                  i would Fold vs reg here

                    Im pretty happy with volume, 8 hours within 4 days so pretty nice

                    took some shots on nl16 nl10 and kind of went south on nl16, although i think im ok to play this limit right now i dont feel comfortable with my roll
                    I was advised to jump to nl16 instead of nl10 so will do that




                    Playing 5 dollars in tournaments right now, busted 2/4 i regged,, will update if i go deep in any

                    last 2 sessions have been terrible, i also feel like ****, cant seem to get it going,
                    stakes are a mix of 2,5,10,16 nl where ive got so coolered and i cant seem to get any bluff or bet through



                    I will take a break as my motivation is super low, probably the most disappointed in myself ive ever been pokerwise

                    Break from poker was enoyable, i really chilled and focused school.
                    I came back for a few short sessions and its been going ok
                    My play hasnt been very focused but the results are solid.

                    Still aim for 25 hours month

                    Stakes have been a mix of 5 and 2 when im not feeling 100%
