              3RD WEEK AUGUST REPORT

              Was on pace to have my first full week winning streak ($ wise) but the Poker Gods—Flopeus, Turnea and Riverdes—had other plans. Can't complain overall though. Running good at 50NL but still can't beat 25NL.

                        I see you put in good volume. How do you structure your sessions? Do you break them up during the day or do you just play for 10 hours straight?

                        I see you put in good volume. How do you structure your sessions? Do you break them up during the day or do you just play for 10 hours straight?
                        Thanks man!

                        I play straight as long as I can get at least 4 good tables running mixing 25-50NL.

                        I don't play 10 hours though, target is supposed to be 7/day, but I've been starting my sessions late lately and I run out of tables after 4-5 hours. Will need to fix that leak this week.

                        Will have a mini-goal to motivate me to grind more, will try hard to go 7/7 winning days. 2/7 so far.

                        Finally winning in 25NL and breaking even at 50NL so far.

                                  Will most likely stop doing daily updates. Missing so many hands. HM2 has me down 200$ today but my cashier says only $22.

                                  Already failed my 7/7 week dream. Tried really hard today but after 6 hours and tables "dying", just couldn't book a win.

                                  If only I know how to fold aces.

                                    My plan was to call turn and fold river since he's very passive (had a hand with him in a 4bet pot and he just called down TP). But I changed my mind in the end and decided to call.

                                    Probably better to just jam turn since there are still a bunch of draws that he might call with if we look at his overall range.

                                    Copy that, jamming before they get there much more +ev. Plus, (and only my intuition), changes the sequence of the rng. 2 to straight or flush? Jam. You might still lose, but they more likely to fold, unless one of those bad players that will make you money in long run.

                                    First time to miss a day this month. ACR having server/connection issues. Too much free time. What to do, what to do...

                                    BANKROLL is at $1,900++—$600 more until 100NL!

                                    That's all.

                                    ACR is down again.



                                    First time to miss 2 playing days since my "comeback" last June 20 started.

                                    I'm starting to get headaches and random spasms. Is this what they call withdrawal?

                                    On a serious note, will probably setup an account on another site somewhere to avoid this kind of issues.

                                    BANKROLL is at $1,900++—$600 more until 100NL!

                                    That's all.

                                    At ACR/WPN? Probably not. They're having a maintenance. Hope that sorts things out.

                                    AUGUST 29, 2019 UPDATE 2.0

                                    Had a really good 5 hour session. HM2 has me up $98.11 but after tallying my cashier before and after the session, I'm actually up $231 overall and because of that I have officially crossed the $2k milestone.

                                    And after claiming my rakeback and first deposit bonus for the last 3 days, bankroll is now at exactly $2,260. 240 more until 100NL!

                                    Starting to run really good at 25NL as well.

                                                          At this pace you should be shotting 1knl around start of 2020.

                                                          Few questions.

                                                          Biggest downswing during this time?
                                                          Avg hands/day?
                                                          Do you do lots of study off tables, if so, how?

                                                          Thanks man! I have not reached my goal yet though. I'm still 240 short. So no celebrating just yet.

                                                          I will make an end of the month update soon.

                                                          That's the long term goal. Hope I really make it.

                                                          Biggest downswing was 20 buy-ins at 10NL and 25NL. This was when I just started playing again so I was basically up 10 down 10 at 10NL and when I "cheated" to play 25NL and got crushed right away. Just needed to fold more was the solution. More info in this post - https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/s...4&postcount=10

                                                          Hands per day is between 2k to 3k. I play 6-8 tables for 5-8 hours depending on how many good tables I can get.

                                                          Yes, I review my biggest winning/losing hands per session and look at medium pots where I could probably squeeze a value bet or a possible bluff.

                                                          And I watch 2-3 videos from a training site. Don't want to mention the name just yet.

                                                          So I think my daily study time ranges from 1-6 hours (on top of my playing time). There are times where I really get into it and I start reviewing my database hardcore or watch like 6-8 videos lol.

                                                          Thanks man!
