Lets do an update as the week is over for me in terms of poker.
First of all I want to add a mid term objective and that's Reach and play NL10 by the end of the year. Well, it's more like a Challenge that hopefully will motivate me to return at the tables more often.
This week I have been away from the poker tables more than last week in terms of number of days (the volume of hands I've mostly covered yesterday), but I have been thinking a lot at poker. I had time to look a bit through the hands that I played last week and I've noticed that I'm going to much at showdown and not always with hands that I should.
I think I'm playing a bit too complicated for NL2 and decided to adjust. I think there is a term for the kind of poker I want to play at NL2 and that's fit or fold poker. Well, I'm obviously gonna try to adapt to the reads I have on the opponents but I'm gonna be more careful when I do that. Been losing a lot of big blinds calling too much.
Also, I opened a reward chest this week and received a Spin & Go ticket. I got lucky to enter in a 10x prize pool and won it.
Another thing that I did wrong was that I played sometimes at 4 Zoom tables and I didn't react in time in some spots. I've reduced to 3 and there is plenty of time now to decide what to do.
Ohh, and as I wrote at the beginning of this thread I was gonna play only Zoom tables but yesterday I've played two sessions at regular tables.
Took a lot of time to table select and that's the thing I don't like to do, but it was good for a change. Played 4-7 tables.
I've also spent a lot of time going through
https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/1...5/index45.html. Very inspirational. Still 20 or so pages to go through, but it's a treat.
Okay, that's it for this week. If someone is reading this wall of text (Hello !
