Hi guys,

Now having started my final year at university I had to withdraw my bankroll to help me afford the luxuries which was around $900 when I withdrew. I have had relatively good success at the lower limits of cash (2NL, 5NL, 10NL) and was a slight loser at 25NL. I believe I play a solid game however I have had major tilt issues in the past where I would spew buyin after buyin if the luck didn't go my way so I believe my winrates could easily have been much better.

I really like graphs :P


After viewing various threads on 2+2 it has really helped me with my game and improve myself as a poker player tremendously so hopefully I can give something back and start a good thread to keep me motivated and to improve my game even further and entertain you guys with some good hands

Will update you guys with the bankroll every few days and share any tough spots/big pots.

Bankroll is currently: $66.31 after leaving $50 on my account

Grinding
- 2NL until BR = $100
- 5NL until BR = $250
- 10NL until BR = $750
- 25NL until BR = $1500

and so on...


Let's see how far I can get

Thanks. I am currently grinding on pokerstars. May not be the softest site but I like the software and there is plenty of traffic around the clock.

First session of today: -$1.52

Feel like I played okay. Maybe was a bit too much of a station in too many spots but am happy with how I played. Probably my B-C game overall.

Would like to post some hands but currently getting this error message:

Spoiler:


Anybody got any fixes? Currently using Holdem Manager 2 (Small Stakes) and just copying the hand as normal.

Hi guys,

Apologies for not updating for a while however uni work has to take priority. Just a quick update on what has happened this past month. I have since progressed from 2NL -> 5NL -> 10NL.

Bankroll: $395.92

One thing I have noticed is that the 5z pool on Stars is incredibly nitty and very hard to beat for a decent sum. Moving up to 10z ASAP was a priority for me and I am glad I did as it has gave my bankroll a good boost.

5NL:



10NL:




5NL was a nightmare for me. Top of my range (KK+, AK w/ TPTK in 4 bet pots getting coolered against sets/two pairs) and similar spots such as set over set majorly affected my win rate. My redline just shows how nitty the pool is however I did run into the top of their range at times

Currently hitting about 1.1k hands an hour 4 tabling zoom so hope to climb to 25z fairly soon if the run good continues and the fish keep donating


I will also try to post some hands soon if I can get the Hand Converter to work.

Hi guys,

Just another update from me

Bankroll: $582.42

Thanks to a fair bit of run good and the pool being so soft my bankroll is increasing at a fair rate. Have been quite busy recently with coursework/studying so haven't played as much as I wanted to but I am about 17 BI's away until I can take my shot at 25NL. Learning to control my tilt and staying calm at the tables has allowed me to see a much improved win rate.

10NL since start of challenge:





Will update next week. Will also try and note down a few hands that I can post too to give the thread more life
