As I have just finished shipping a couple buy-ins at $1k PLO, I figured what better time to start a thread. Plan is just to have a place to keep track of my overall progress and provide myself with a little motivation. Hoping to also post some interesting spots.

I will be playing both on Bovada and live. I will be playing $200NL on Bovada and tournaments (basically anything up to $162). Live I will have a fair mix of $1/2 to $2/5, which a majority of my volume being at $1/3. Lately a majority of my play has been online, despite living within 10 minutes of Parx.

I am planning on a taking a shot fulltime within the next year. In order to do so, I would like to make quite a bit in the coming months. So in short, plan is to make money.

Mix of $200NL 6-max and MTTs on Bovada

Today's Profit: $237.30

Total Profit: $508.30

Not much as far as interesting spots.

Really was unsure about this spot, V is LP fish, so think it can't be too bad.

Such a troublesome spot. Feels so nitty to fold TPTK to a min raise here, but feel like its burning $ and I should not be planning on folding if I am calling flop min.

3rd in a $55 for $320, 4 in an $11 PLO for $53, min cashed a $22 for $44.80 and min cashed an $11 for $23.03.

This hand was pretty brutal in the $82 GSPO3 Kick-off event ...

V check, Hero bets $35, folds to V who calls

V1 is a mid to late 20's solid LAG reg that I have played with a bit.
V2 is mid 20's playing well, somewhere between TAG and LAG

Pre-flop: V2 limps EP, OMC raises to $16, V1 flats on B, H flats sb w. A Q, V1 flats ...

Flop ($64): K J T

H checks, V2 checks, OMC checks, V1 bets $50, Hero Flats $50, V2 raises to $210, V1 shoves for $515, H shoves $525, V2 tanks for a bit before calling...

Probably a little too nitty not to ship river. Guy tanked quite a while on river and then raised huge ... Just feel like nut flushes make up a good portion of his value range here and sizing with smaller flushes and straights is likely smaller... my sizing was to induce thin value/air raises or get called by 1 pair hands

Decided to make a small deposit on BCP ($400), mainly for MTTs, but will likely try to run it up grinding 50nl as I got a 200% bonus + the standard rakeback (points conversion).

Played some $50NL on BCP & some $200NL on Bovada tonight...

Session Profit: -$29.16

Spoiler:
between the min 3b & some notes suggesting he peels 3b w. very marginal holdings, I think 4b pre is best, when he 5s after the min 3b ... i just don't believe he has a hand that should fall into a standard 5b range. Flop seems like obv check/call. Turn I expect him to shove 100% of his top pair +, River is probably too thin on my part or should have been a small (e.g. $8 - $10) bet with the intention of calling shoves. I ship just to give a likely fish a chance to hero with KQ, JT, QJ, 99, 88, etc. - in retrospect, shove is way too thin


Not a very interesting spot, just not sure about what I should use a river sizing...

Not sure what my standard line should be in this spot ... I prefer to check turn to control pot size and allow him to bet some air on river, value-own himself or check/call a hand he would like fold on turn. Probably should just fire 3 for value here.

Put in a session Thursday night online of $200NL, 100NL & some $10 spin n go's or whatever BCP calls them. Played a little spewy in cash.

Session Profit: -$132.06

Total Profit: $2,554.04

Also put in a live $1/2 session last night, which was incredibly boring as the night was spent at two tight passive tables.

Session Profit: $107.00

Total Profit: $2,661.04

Likely will fire up MTTs shortly...

Was one of those spots where you just feel it lol.

Obv stats suggest he is a fish. When he bombs river after calling quickly on flop and turn, I expect him to be somewhat polarized and the only hands that got there are J8 & 77. I expect 5x to raise turn 100%, 77 to take more time calling flop or turn, Tx to take a little more time on both flop and turn and likley check back somewhat often on river and/or bet smaller. 9x almost always checks back river. A fish likely checks back Ax most of the time. When calling I thought for certain he would have QJ, was suprised by Q6dd (lol flop call).
