Now I am back at 2nl, and the upswing is starting to begin. Just cruising today, played some hands, but not much.
I will only post graph in bb for now, because it is the best way to measure winnings. e.g. if you lose 10 BI's at 5nl, you have to win 25 BI's at 2nl so they even out $ wise.
If it is bb, if you lose 10 BI's at 5nl (1000bb), you need to win 10 BI's at 2nl (1000bb), so they even out.
I have learned to measure in bb rather than $.

One of the good days, I'm playing well, and running good in small pots, but ran bad in big pots today. eg. AA vs QQ for 300bb's, Q on flop, but that is poker! I think my game have improved much.

Here's my analysis of the hands:

1) Get it in. At these stakes and based on his stats you have to assume he's limping with Ax and the flop keeps him in so it may have hit his range. The turn raise to me signifies A7, A8, 77 or 88 (KK and AA unlikely) and you're crushing 50% of those hands so it's a call IMO since they'll have A7 or A8 more often. Also, maybe 910 or 56 are making a mistake we can profit from. I wouldn't play this the same as I've described at higher limits though.

2) Fold on the flop after the 4-bet as you're likely beat. He's represented strength PF, C-bet OTF and is now 4-betting you. AJ is dominated so often here.

3) I like to x-c the turn rather than leading out. If he shoves, you're in tough. Also, his bet sizing will likely be smaller if he's scared of what you're holding so rather than risking $0.34 you might get off cheaper chasing the draw. Good job extracting on the river - I wouldn't have gone for it all.

4) Is a fold OTT. Your opponent can see a flop relatively cheaply and the board is somewhat connected. I'd be weary of a weak two pair putting us behind going to the River.

5) To me, this is the same as the previous hand, with the addition of 56.

6) Is a fold PF. You're OOP with a hand that can be dominated. Easy to find a better spot IMO. If you want to defend, you're better off 3-betting one opponent. I don't like 4-betting here since a shove/fold makes you look weak.

7) I'd x-c the turn, and x the river to see what he does.

8) 22/16 with a x-shove means I'm folding here. If it's a bluff and it worked for him (since we folded) he's inclined to try it again and we can snap him off when the board isn't connected with our top two.

9) As played. Nothing you can do.

General comments: Your bet sizing is giving away information based on what I see. Twice you were the first in the pot and had excellent starting hands - JJ and KK - and raised 2.5x. The weaker your holdings, the higher you're raising. I don't like this for two reasons: you're getting called by hands that dominate you (Ex: AQ vs your Q9) and have committed more money; secondly, you're building a pot and are more priced in to chase on later streets. Granted, I do have a small sample size so if you're making it 2x, 2.5x, 3x, etc. with ATC then keep playing that way (might be a good review of your HH).

- 3-bets are much stronger at these stakes than higher limits.

- If you're multi-tabling you should drop the number of tables and pay closer attention to the players for a few thousand hands. You'll likely learn a lot doing this and can find better spots this way.

First post, hand 1 is fine. You have top two, he could do that with any worse Ax or worse two pairs. Hand 2, you're OOP with AJ on SB with a raise from the BB. You either 4b or fold. Calling pre is a mistake unless you know for a fact that villain folds everything to a 4b except for premiums and he's a loose 3better. If villain is really tight i'd fold AJ to a 3b, even BvB, especially in 1c/2c.

I haven't read the rest, but I wish you goodluck!

Need that upswing!!!

I am now playing 6 tables of normal (not zoom) 2nl. I have a bad habbit of calling when I know I am behind!

Here are a graph of the first days of November. Of course I hit the wall! Am a little tired of poker, but I will make a profit in this month, even if it is only 1 bb.

Rough day today. Played bad, and didn't fold when I should. All in all I wasn't focused!
Lesson: Learn to fold, and FOCUS!
