The redline is back to it original state. sadly. Not focusing too much on it. Until I get back to my peak.



BANKROLL: 1798 USD

So difficult to have the conscience to apply the stuff you learn. As it is so easy to fall back on auto-pilot and old habit.

Tried to spend some time in the streets. Maintenance stopped my momentum. Went to bed instead.



BANKROLL: 1867 USD

Back to peak. Always good to see that. Probably gonna pass the 2K roll mark before the end of next week.

I played a little more of the 50NL. Just after 1K hands there I can tell that there is noticeable difference there. I think it's the first stake that plays different than micros. I think 25NL there is slight difference in the ability of the regs. But in 50... Man. I was happy to end up with a break-even day. After couple swing and sweat.



BANKROLL: 1880

It was the weekend. Had to take a shot and see what was the state of the games at the higher stakes. I might want to study more before heading back there.

A chill session last night. Played lower. Now a new week is starting. I've been slacking the volume since my sister is here. Spent time with her. But for the week to come I will try to have more hours of playtime.



BANKROLL: 1950 USD

Getting close to the 2K mark. when I reach 2.5K the next weekend I try an other shot at 50NL. So exciting to shot take. Every hand seem to matter so much. Very stressful.

What is up 2+2! I received my rakeback from last month. I was off 25 Usd. So the roll take a small dip. No good action last night sadly.



BANKROLL: 1920 USD

Still playing not much table at once. It's so slow to get hands going 4 tabling-6 tabling. So I might try to get a day where I hit first of the leaderboard? I only played 20 hours since the start of the month.

It was a Bloodbath.
Absolute destruction.

Sadly, I lost a bunch of money last night running very poorly. And probably some play bad with it also.


Of course I played some 50NLz. After I said a thousand time that I should stay away from it. I suppose If I ran that bad I shouldn't feel toooo bad. But I do.

And I also Lost a bunch playing the Reg table also


BANKROLL: 1500 USD

Yeah that's right. I was a bloodbath.

Here I am again. Chill in the morning. Than Basketball. Than Poker.

I took my money out of GG. It was a lot of money I was stressed playing. And I don't feel I was improving on GG. So I'm back on PS. So will mostly play lower and study A TON. I think I have improved a lot since the beginning of this. But I'm ready to go a full week in the ''Hyperbolic Time Chamber''. Getting higher end coaching material.



I might try to go for something insane like trying to go from 150-1K by the end of the month. Improving is more important than the size of the game I play. Will I play 25NL on stars or on GG. Yet to be seen.

The good thing about Stars is the software and the amount of data you have. I think since I have experience using it, (because bad using a hud is worst than having one) I can adapt very well against my competition.

Hey It's me again. I've playing some stars. We been playing the same thing Thommehh. Well most of my action is zoom so far. Just run so easily. On stars people are way more aware of where they stand against the competition. And just sitting at a table looks a bit like négociation... Already...

My month so far:



Absolute madness. My winrate is at 30bb. Not maintenable obv. But just the fact that I can optain those results, shows that I can do good on stars.

The loosing swing finally came. I ended up managing it not too bad.
Some change for my month. My SO will take here vacation at my place at the end of the month. So I will delay the time chamber and focusing on playing until then.

MY month.


My stars from the challenge.


As you can see. I made Around 2K USD so far not counting the Rakeback money. So still decent... For the stakes played.

I will try to have a 1K graph on stars also. Hopefully before I go deep on improving my game.

PS. Also thank you for the GL vibe guys!

Hello 2+2 I've been playing a bit. with decent success. But the thing I'm the most proud of is to stop smoking weed while playing. Don't seem like much. But I'm sure it will make a big difference in my life going forward.

As results goes:



Still doing good. Not played a lot of 25NL. Mostly regs table when I play there. I have a better understanding of where my edge comes from playing there compared to zoom.

But my hourly this month starts to be decent. (like minimum wage where I live.) at around 11 USD/h.

Hopefully I will be at around 1K on my stars roll by the end of the month. A big task. But not impossible.

Very nice! I quit smoking weed almost a year ago while having smoked it for like 12 years almost nonstop, one day I was like I just quit today hehe

So the last graph is stars only?

I smoked it for soooo long also. I will take a break for a while. And after that break only smoking AFTER my session. Realised it was a way to cope with the stress of playing. But it influenced my focus obviously.

Yeah thats my stars graph. And higher posts are the GG one.

Is your hourly better in regular tables like I have? It also really confuses me how can you tell where does your money come from when everybody's a reg? It might come from someone 3betting A4s too little, but you will never be able to see it yourself. Only the results will show. It's kind of frustrating.

Well I'm not sure... I don't play a lot of zoom. I know where the money comes from because I know who is a winner in the games. And what winrates the regs at the table got. Based on there stats, also, I know where my strat will outperform there's.

Thank you poker gods I needed that pot.

The run good continues in the Stars street. I think I play very good poker (based on my own standards obv) recently. Will keep the grind going.



The hand previously mentioned:

PokerStars - $0.50 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (BTN): $63.63
SB: $50.00
BB: $50.00
UTG: $52.75
MP: $89.41
CO: $50.50

SB posts SB $0.25, BB posts BB $0.50

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.75) Hero has J J

fold, MP raises to $1.50, fold, Hero raises to $4.50, SB raises to $13.00, fold, MP calls $11.50, Hero calls $8.50

Flop: ($39.50, 3 players) 6 T 4
SB checks, MP bets $10.50, Hero calls $10.50, fold

Turn: ($60.50, 2 players) 7
MP bets $65.91 and is all-in, Hero calls $40.13 and is all-in

River: ($140.76, 2 players) T

Spoiler:
MP shows 9 9 (Two Pair, Tens and Nines)
(Pre 18%, Flop 10%, Turn 14%)
Hero shows J J (Two Pair, Jacks and Tens)
(Pre 82%, Flop 90%, Turn 86%)
Hero wins $138.76


My biggest pot won I think since the start of the challenge. And a strange one no doubt.

I thought you might find that funny/interesting.
