Day 2 - 4400 VPP's
Well that was a weird way to end the evening. 10pm and a girl I know keeps messaging me to hit a couple of bars, I resist. midnight and a drunk friend is phoning me telling me to come out. Not a chance. 4am, and with a target of 5,500 vpps within reach, my doorbell rings. At the door stands a drunk, 25 year old (pretty hot to be fair) blonde girl who lives in the apartment across from me, who has had an argument with her boyfriend and is locked out. She heard the music i had on while playing and decided I was her only savior
. Couldn't really carry on after that, and I'm not sure that will be a regular occurance. So, a bottle of wine and a good chat later, it's the end of the night.
I find 100nl pretty soft, it's certainly a lot softer than 200. But whenever I mix the stakes, I seem to give it less attention and just spew off money there. Last night I was up 9 BI's @ 200nl and down the same on 100nl. Paid attention to it a lot more after, and just some run bad kept me from making it back. Red line a bit of a concern, not because I'm a red line obsessive, but it's often a good indicator of concentration for me. With it being a Friday, these things happen.
Plan going forward is to attempt 5,500 average for 100 days, which would leave a nice easy run in. I will go for this in blocks of 10. Football today and next Saturday but apart from that I will be going for 6,000 point days. This challenge is almost addictive. I've been doing the hours for a while now, and all I want to do is keep grind as I go out to do something else for a couple of hours.
With regards to health, I think I mentioned I do go to the gym and eat healthy. Pretty much no booze at the moment (hungover grind is impossible anyway). But Saturday is cheat day, bring on the Indian...

Day 3 - 2534 vpps
Had better days that's for sure, but not upset with todays results. You get days when you play terribly and spew $, but for the most part this was just one of those days of horrible board run outs and getting the wrong parts of peoples ranges... the opposite of run good. There were spots where I could increase the aggression and certainly make sure my bluff range is expanded enough, but often the red line was more a reflection of having to lay down hands or pass on firing rivers due to the run outs. The 100nl result is a bit concerning, but since it's only day 3 I will let that pass for now. Gone through every pot where I lost more than 60bb @ 100 and most are fine, but if it continues I will record a part of a session and check what I'm overlooking. Made some notes about little concentration issues, but it's going quite well. Was going to get to 4,000 vpps, but on days like today I'd rather just get some sleep and extend tomorrow. A 5,500 vpp day tomorrow will average the two days at 4,000, and I plan on smashing some serious volume every day until Friday now with a completely free schedule (3hrs Tuesday aside).
