Awesome run for an awesome day at NL10!



Played well, had few coolers preflop (KKvsAA all-in pre and things like this) but ended up being pretty lucky!

Anyway... bankroll @753€, which means it's time for me to take a shot at NL25.... and to make a recap of my NL10 experience!

This is my overall graph for NL10:


Played 28.272 hands, keeping 16,01 bb/100 (EV 14,72), payed 293,45€ rake, net won 452,66€

Here are the stats I kept at the stake:


As you see, my balanced GTO strategy is the key to have success at these stakes and..... just kidding

I went as far from GTO as someone could get.

If I see someone at the table with the above stats, I could exploit him in a zilion of different ways. The point is... nobody did. Almost nobody. But the few guys who tried to adjust made it in a so terrible way that they got punched in the face as soon as I started decreasing my aggression vs them.
It was enough for me to start cbetting them with a 40% or so frequency and the job was done.
Most people see the number in the HUD and they just don't care about the flow or what is actually happening at the table. Then just whine because I have 78% cbet and always have it

Anyway... Not satisfied at all with my game in the last days, I hope it will get better at NL25! I have a very tiny stop loss, so wouldn't be surprised if I have to click NL10 again in a few. NL25 should be pretty swingy

Played 3k hands today at NL25 and went pretty well


The stake is swingy and funny as expected!

Cool hands of the day:

      Pretty much a BE day today


      Not satisfied at all with my game, especially in the last 2 mini-sessions I played super automatically. Even if I won, this is not how I like the game.

        and this is overall NL25 by now:


        The last EV swing was pretty unreal.

        I am perplexed how you can play 23/19/7.5 w a 4% 4bet and have a graph like that. This reg tables not zoom right?

        Very interested to see if you can keep up the WR at 25NL. What WR was your 10nl sample btw?

        No, it's all zoom. Why perplexed?

        At NL10 i kept 14,7 ev bb/100, you can see graph, stats and everything else in previous page

        Most people associate a graph like yours with a super loose aggressive preflop strategy. I guess it comes from postflop stuff though. v impressive.

        Yeah, it's almost completely from postflop plays and I would say it's actually easier to have a positive red line by being tight preflop It's easier to be aggressive postflop if you start with a tight range.

        Didn't play much in the last 3 days


        Swinged a lot!

          Played less than 1k hands today, but it went lol-good


          It's a special day, because for the first time in the challenge I passed 1k€ bankroll.



          Super happy because it took me 65k hands (or 65 hours of play) to turn 100€ BR into a 1.000€ one. Starting from NL2 I thought it would take more time, but I can say I never entered in a "real" downswing and this helped a lot.

          Hilarious graphs, in a good way

          Don't think I've seen many regs WTSD at 23%, but then again not many regs have those graphs. gl man should be even more interesting when moving to NL50 and 100, subbed!

          Swinging in the last 2 days!


          And finally running above EV at NL25 Didn't play my best poker if I have to be honest. Was autopiloting a bit too much for my standards.

          Played over 20k hands at NL25, here are the overall results for the stake:

                    Hello!
                    Didn't post in the last few days, but actually I didn't play much at all.

                    On Friday I was victim of a home burglary. I passed the last few days at police station and insurance companies, so I wasn't in the right mood to play!

                    But I think I'll start playing constantly from tomorrow or wednesday!

                          Are you still coaching? Looks like your coaching thread is gone. I would be very interested in hiring you. Good luck with the challenge!

                          Yeah, I took away the thread for November since I had more requests than I could manage. I will re-upload it during the month of December, when I will end some packages and have more time for new students

                          Crushing it mate. Loving the hands too, having to think why you took certain lines has helped me out a lot.

                          Played quite a bit this weekend, very good results:


                          And that brings my bankroll @1.500€ (RB and bonuses excluded)! Time for some NL50

                          Will probably play some normal at the beginning, it should be a bit less swingy and since my stop loss will be as usual 5 stacks, I want to take it easy.

                          NL25 recap:


                          Played around 40k hands at the stake and even if it was swingy I was lucky enough not to start with a downswing, since it would have meant going back to NL10 and lose a lot of time.

                          Overall graph for the challenge by now:


                          Will try to slowdown a bit these days, I really need to have some things done and I can't postpone them anymore
