GL Stevee all the best!

Hi guys! Finally an update
So far I've played 229/500 I'm aiming to play in the last month of 2015..
These are the results:


Very happy? No.
Surprised? No.
Disappointed? Not at all!

As you can see, there's somewhat of a break-even stretch happening.
How come? Probably because I've played some games where I didn't have 200% focus.
To be honest, I think I'm almost a favourite in every Spin&Go that I play while 1-tabling.
A lot of the volume in the middle of the graph was 2-tabling, and sometimes more, while it's basically breaking the rules. But then again, didn't do too aweful I guess.
Rest of the volume towards the first 500 games is most definitely going to be me single-tabling.

Yes, I'm up 15 buy-ins, but money is not all that matters.
To be able to go to the 15s, I need a EVchip/game number of at least 55+.
It's not that hard, but I'm only at 47 now.
However, I've been between 70-95 earlier in this graph, so it's for surely doable

Aaaanyway. I'm "okay" with the results so far. I know I haven't played my best game in some of the volume, so I'm pretty sure that I'm doing just fine if I would play my best all the time

I'm probably attending a group coaching later today. And obviously also play some more spins

Thanks for reading!

I started @7s, in late august. I was promoted to 15s after 1k games and to 30s after another 2k, in the beginning of this month. I have a full time job, so my volume isn't the highest

How many games per month?

Woops! This is not going to be a road without bumps
Played pretty poorly (read: probably too aggro) last two days, and this is the result.
Good that I didn't broke the 30bi rule

Wake-up call for Stevee. Back to 1-tabling and range charts

New goals:
[ ] don't look at results during sessions
[ ] start colourcoding opponents (any advice for Spins? anyone?)

Anyway.. next update will be better

Super spinner reg
Spinner reg
Super spinner reg
****** spinner reg
Whale spinner reg


I have no clue what i'm saying

I tag all the regs as fish and the fish as whales to make sure I play correctly.

Awesome

Was always curious how it is to grind spins so i'll definitely follow this thread!

Also, i really like your daily schedule but i think it is really tough to wake up that early. Anyway, wish you the best on your new journey!

Cheers

What made you stop grinding 100/200. Did you predict cash would be too hard for you to beat for a good enough win rate in 2016 with the likelihood of people moving down.

Big respect for giving spins a go, will keep an eye on this.

Just the opportunity of getting staked and getting coached all the way to basically the highest of stakes in -what I believe to be the softest format on PokerStars at the moment- was a huuuuuge factor for me.

Until this point, I was always riding solo. And since I'm such a "peoples-person" (if you know what I mean), the fact that I could become part of such a professional team just pulled me over there.

This, and the fact that Zoom is getting harder every day. Oktober was terribly brutal for me, both mentally and financially.

Gl steve, will be following this thread

just started 7s spins too, we'll see how it goes, so far it's okay

Good luck! Hope you get to the high stakes.

Thx your support always means loads!

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE

One Spin away from 480/500 Spins (the amount I needed to play before I could start multitabling) again, I'm pretty "okay" with the results.

As you can see, from spin 250 until spin 370 or so.. variance was a bitch. EV was still break-even (or at least a lot less losing) than actual "winnings" so I was fine with that. Felt like I couldn't win again 2 & 3-outers.

Anyway, singletabling (or max 2-tabling) atm, and doing juuuust fine

Stay tuned for more!

With this pace I'll be at $15s in January for sure!

Subbed, bonne chance mec

Interesting blog to follow.

Just don't be so short term result oriented. With that small sample size you have so far it is all still variance anyhow

Really need to get cEV-line to go up..

Anyway. Recovered from a somewhat sizeable downswing, back to break-even with a decent amount of experience with me. Ready for $15s between now and the end of January.

Also: ran terribly cold in Sunday Million $5M gtd
KK v AA for 100bb pot. Board xxxKA
Ran it back up.. JJ < AK for 2x avg. Did not cash!

Didn't you only grind 50nl,25nl and lower stevee?

I've played a decent amount of 100NL as well.

Never stated somewhere I've played a lot of 200nl or "100/200"

Gl!!

How is the traffic/level during the hours in your planning?

Would seem logic to have more games/fish during the evening, of al I seeing this wrong?
I also know GF takes some time and only together is in evenings of weekends...

1. On the stakes I'm starting, there's a ****load of traffic 24/7. No need to worry about that! Level is always bad to terribad.
2. I'm also playing during night and in the evening, not really sticking to the schedule yet, at the moment


Weeeeeeee 26 today!
Little bit depressing since a lot of the people I know have a lot more "going for them" at this point in their lives.
Time to chase them haha!

Anywaaaaaay.. Graph:


cEV is half of where I want it to be (50-65) so.. Ugh!
But that will change soon
Volume is okay. Made my first goal!

[x] complete first 500 Spin&Go's in December

Not much to talk about for the rest, a little bit lazy, to be honest but wanted to update anyway.

Thanks for reading

Stevee

Happy bday! And Enjoy a party!

Happy birthday, nice results so far! Keep it up!

Thanks guys results are okay! cEV is 50+ over the last 400 games, so I guess the not-so-good cEV comes from the ****ty losing and break-even part in the middle of the graph I will recover ! 2K spins, here I come

It's silly to look at cEV in samples under 5k for an indication of EV winrate. At best it will tell you if you're a winning/losing player. Tons of people I've talked to have had 60+cEV 1k stretches at 30s as well as <30cEV stretches in the same month.

No real point in looking, it can only make you over or under confident. There's always something to learn and short term results don't mean you need to study more/less.
