Recap:
[Fail ] 7 days of honest grinding
[ Pass] 4 tables exclusive at 25 NL fr Zoom; I play kind of slow so expecting 900h/hr.
[Fail ] Report results and picture of stack hopefully > 1 buy in.
[Ultra Fail ] Prove to self that grinding hard = make $$$
So after about 6k hands or so I went to get Subway. Did you guys know that Subway uses peanut oil? Apparently the peanut allergen is filtered out or purified/fried correctly in the USA but this one I went to in Taiwan just ruined me. Did not even get any swelling just outright deathly pain throat down towards my solar plexus.

Then after 34 hours of sleep/recovery I fell upon an old Boku87 thread and got inspired to play 800 hypers earning 0$ pre rakeback. Filled the rest of my week by watching Fast and Furious collection.

So lets try this again, but going to double my time frame to 14 days of grinding. Still sticking with 25NLfr-Zoom. Do good and move on up to the 50 sharks.

Recap:
[ ] 14 days of honest grinding

It's probably similar for most but my concentration level is so sharp 1st hour of each session so why not just play 1 hours sessions or less. You can only really do this with Zoom. If I play normal tables I put in at least 90mins each time.

I feel like s*** tho wen I grind 2,3,4 or 5hr sessions so taking lots of breaks/gaps is better

4x 1hrs sessions > 1x 4hr session

Im thinking of dabbling in Zoom again ... just to get some volume in.

I do not seem to play long sessions anyway so going through all the TST ritual and then slowly but surely getting to my 16 tables ... only to find once im there ... i only play for another 30 minutes or so.

I might give it a few days and see how it goes .. i like the idea i can play for 20 minutes and stop as often as i like.

Cannot really do that with TST etc.

Whats the worst that can happen !!!

My experience is very little (NL2, NL5) but on these nanostakes I can find tables with people shoving ATo preflop, while on the others I see 7 nits and my game is just slow and steady winning blinds

      Ohhh like that is it ??

      I really dont know what to make of Zoom ... seems more boring without table dynamics ... and a lot of folding as far as i could see.

      The good thing is you can stop start as often as you like so you can stop before it gets really boring.

      haha i think bolded is really underrated, also deep play is too.

      what would you do differently? if i was OOP i would probably raise turn. IP i think its a raise too, i can at least be bluffing then and get value from all villains draws. Also, if i call flop/turn and jam river my hand looks nutted.

      I would raise the turn every time ... especially at 6 max.

      What beats you ? ..only really KK as K9 is unlikely ... he is calling with Kx, AA and 9x
