Took a week off online to play some live tournaments

Min cashed a $300 bounty tournament and collected 2 bounties

Min cashed a $200 6 max

Final tabled the main event (150k guarantee, $450 buyin) and was tied for the 3rd when I got A4 in the BB and defended.

Flop 244, check called. Q turn, check raised and get called. River is a Q, check call, V shows KQ. Shoved my last 8bb the next hand from the SB with 55 and lost to K2 to go out in 8th.

Really sucked, but it was fun to play a final table live for the first time in a while


Grinded out 3k+ hands today in a 12 hour session. Longest session ever for me. +2.5 buyings at 1/5 and +1.5 buyins at 2/5. Also min cashed a $75 bounty tourney and won a bounty

$1/$2: 108k hands @ 9.31 bb/100
$2/$5: 8.7k hands @ 11.87 bb/100
$5/$10: 417 hands @ -97.39 bb/100

2k breakeven hands today. Had two river calls that I think were too light, so I should have won a buyin :/

Played another 2,000 hands yesterday. +2.5 buyins at 2/5, breakeven at 1/2. Took 11th and won 4 bounties in a $100 + 25 tournament

$1/$2: 112k hands @ 9.14 bb/100
$2/$5: 9.2k hands @ 12.92 bb/100
$5/$10: 417 hands @ -97.39 bb/100

Back to the grind

Played some Run it up tournaments in Reno last week so I haven't played much online. Bubbled the black chip bounty, but collected enough bounties to break even. Busted the main event at the end of day 1

Do you play 200z at all? What are your thoughts on it?

Haven't played much. Played a bunch of 25z when I was building my roll a few months ago, but I prefer regular tables.

That being said, I'm probably going to start playing a couple sessions of 200z every week to help with volume

Subbed. Glanced your thread a few weeks back. Happy to see you're still alive and grinding.

Is your volume just from playing Ignition?

Thanks for the sub. I'll be grinding until I hit the top. Yeah, all ignition. I've made a little money on Global as well, but those results aren't included.

Played 400 hands of 1/2 this morning, +5.5 buyins.

Tried to fire up a 1/2 session later in the afternoon and I couldn't find a single open table. Said **** it and opened four 2/5 6max tables and got to grinding.

837 hands later I was up 5 buyins and called it a day.

More 2/5 today. 700 hands, + ~ a half buyin

Why do you play such incredibly low volumes per day?

I play Ignition, so I can only 4 table at a time. My hourly is about 250 hands, so 2k hands takes me 8 hours. I've also been sick this week, and playing a lot live the last couple weeks, so my volume has been too low.

Played 2000 hands yesterday and ran pretty poorly. I also played bad in a few spots


I almost fired river... not even sure that I made a mistake here tbh, I like bluffing worse hands on the river, and I didn't expect to have much FE...

THAT has got to be the most tilting hand I could ever imagine playing. :')

The only thing that would've been more tilting is if I fired river and he called. and I'm pretty sure he would have

Mostly played tournaments today. Min cashed one, won a bounty in another, but nothing interesting really. Ran bad in the high rollers when it counted which kind of sucked

Ran better today in cash, and played much better. Made some good folds that I haven't been making enough of lately. Made just over 1 buyin over 1k hands of 2/5

Down 6 buyins over a short 600 hand session. Tilted doesn't even begin to describe it....

Your thread has inspired me to try and grind up a roll.

Starting from 25NL. Wish me luck.

Good luck man.

Lost 2.5 buyins on the 2nd, won 3.5 yesterday, and lost 2 today.

Took 2nd in the $250 30k 6max for ~5k tonight. Was heads up with a fish with a 2:1 chip lead though so it feels like an L tbh

My 1/2 WR just keeps going down. Maybe 10bb/100 is out of reach? Running terrible at 1/2, but great at 2/5 so I'll take it.
