Week 8

I’ll make it quick this week as I’m in vacation in Montreal. Here are this week’s results

So I was only able to manage 5000 hands but was able to get back on track with a 6 buy in profit.

Here are my totals

So I’m up 123$ total profit so far with about breakeven on 5 NL. Kind of struggling to put in the hours as I’m pretty buzy this summer.

I’ll skip the biggest pot won or lost for the week as I don’t have my Holdem manager with me here

So my bankroll is now at 203$

I won’t have a blog for next week as I’m taking the week off from playing.

Thanks

Week7

Another week done and I can finally say I have had my first downswing. Here are this week’s results….

So down 6.5 buy ins for the week in a little more then 7k hands. I honestly can say that I didn’t play very well this week. I made bad call downs made bad bluffs and just made poor decisions overall. I notice a pretty big improvement in the players in just this switch of levels. There’s way less fish and way more 3 betting and squezing.

Here are my totals now

So a pretty big downswing on the graph there. Nothing much else to say.

Biggest pot won for the week.

Here the guy who overjammed the flop was playing 100% of hands so when the original squeezer folds to his jam. I think it’s an easy call on the fish with an overbet which I tend to think is not extremely strong.

Here is my biggest pot lost for the week.

Here my plays are quite questionable. First off I open a weakish hand UTG. Then I decide to overshove an pretty naked flush draw on the flop for 150bbs. The only reason I decided to shove that flop was because he was check raising the flop quite often (33%). But if you think about it I was against the best scenario with him holding QQ there. He could easily have had a set, 2 pair etc. Then my A wouldn’t eaven have mattered.

After 7 weeks My bankroll is down at 172$. I’ll try and get it back on track for next week.

Week 6

Hi,

Another week done and I have finally moved up to 5 NL. I ran pretty good at 2NL this week which gave me the 40 buy ins up needed to move to the next limit. Here are my weekly results…

So up  a total of 37$ with around 8000 hands played. The majority of the winnings  coming from 2NL. I had a bit of a hard time for the first 3000 hands of 5 NL which I figure is just the adjustement period. The regs seemed a bit better and I felt I was getting 3 bet and squeezed a bit more.

Here are the totals after 6 weeks.

So it took me 47 000 hands to win 60 buy ins at 2 NL for a very respectable 13bb/100 win rate. I expect the win rate to drop in each higher level I get into. At 2 NL you get value bet so thinly as people call you down with really marginal hands. The graphic also looks pretty solid except for that small dip when I started playing 5 NL near the 120$ mark.

Here is my biggest pot won for the week.

Here I decide to call the overshove all in because he insta did it and usually you see a ton of AK in there. It was also one of my first few hands there and didn’t know really what to expect. Not sure if this a positive EV play but I don’t think it’s bad.

Here we have a 4 handed hand with a bunch of guys I have no data on but once the villain calls the original raiser and only flats my squezze I tend to put them on medium strenght hands. I think it’s a no brainer to shove the turn here because I obviously flop and turn some monster draws and you can add the fold equity of many top pair type hands for my opponent in there. Ended up he had a monster but I still don’t think it was a bad play.

So I now stand with a bankroll of 202$.

See ya next week
