Hello everyone

Let me introduce myself.
Poker fanatic for a long time, quit online poker more than 4 years ago due
to lack of time, emptied stars account and never played again.
Now with the corona pandemic you have nowhere to go, so i have dusted off my stars account.

What is my plan?
Make 10K and create a bankroll for 100NL.
I mostly play 6 max zoom and i like to play all different micro and low stakes up to 50NL.
I start with a virtual bankroll of 5K, i made a deposit of 500$ and can fill up if necessary.
Especially to track all this i bought HM3 and start off with a fresh database with 0 hands.

0$ profit
0 hands
0 bb/100

All advice is welcome, if you have any questions feel free to ask.
Wish me good luck!

good luck bro

Thank you!

glgl. whats your background in poker?

I'm just a hobby player returning to the online fields. I love poker both online and live. I played mostly NLHE both cash and tournaments.

10k bankroll for 100nl?? Will take a very long time to make 10k without playing higher than 50nl.

Im on board sir, i'll be reading the updates, glgl

It probably will, i'm not sure what my average bb/100 will be on the different stakes these days, but it is not a race. And yes 10k is on the conservative side, if my winrates are good at 50NL i probably take shots earlier on.

Update 1




First update, i started at 2NL, felt a bit rusty so i played most hands so far at 2NL zoom. I also get my feet wet at other stakes up to 16NL zoom.
Everything is in the green so far and the level of play is not much better then a couple of years ago.

156.75$ profit
6510 hands
25bb/100 on average


Can anyone give me some advice on their winrates on bigger samples at pokerstars zoom up to 50NL?

I thought of the following winrates for at least 10k hands:

2NL 12bb/100
5NL 10bb/100
10NL 9bb/100
16NL 8bb/100

If i can achieve this for a certain stake i move up and leave the stake behind.
Like said there is no rush in doing this.
At this rate it takes a year, but that's ok.

Maybe 10k hands in just way too small of a sample sir? im not a cash specialist, but i'll assume that a decent smaple size would be 50k+ at the very least

But so far so good, lets keep it going

I don't think that it makes sense to play 50k hands on 2NL if you clearly beat the stake. It is good to shake of the rust, but then i want to move up.
Moving down is always an option ofc.

Had a great monday evening session after work.
Every stake from 2NL to 25NL, most hands are 25NL zoom.
I don't see much difference in level of play on micro's so far.

Nice and smooth so far, lets keep it going

Thanks we are doing our best!

What stakes did you use to play before? Impressive results so far, but volume is too low, imo.

I played every stake up to 100NL, thank you, i work full time so i can only play during the evening hours. Next week i have a few days off, then i can probably boost the volume a bit.

We all know that feeling, you have to go back to 0 before you are going to sleep.
No matter what!

Solid results so far bro,keep it going.
i usually play micro stakes cash games but can't keep it steady profit when it comes to zoom.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

very nice gl .. and yes sometimes getting back to even is a win for the session lol

Thank you, low stakes zoom is really easy to beat, here are some tips:

- Play a solid pre flop game and avoid to play OOP as much as possible.
- Steal the blinds like 90%, most regs don't have a clue and only play back with strong holdings.
- Play abc poker, don't waste you're time on fancy strategies, if you hit a strong hand, just bet and grow the pot as fast as possible!

GL!

Getting my feet wet at 50NL, went pretty well!
Just 1 table zoom, people are crazy these days...



Seems that there is a problem with the HHC, i will post some hands later on.

Update 2

Ok, week two is in the books, i was motivaded with the results of the first week so i played a lot. In total 17k hands, had some rough sessions, but turned a profit overall.

232$ Profit this week
388$ Total profit
17772 Hands this week
24282 Total hands




PS: It seems that there is problem with the hand history converter of 2+2, i get a internal server error. Maybe it has something to do with my browser?

Sounds good bro.
will try implementing these

You are welcome, which stakes are you playing?
