I can't get a positive EV line constantly getting cooler-ed, bad beaten... Maybe I should start folding to any raise or donk bet postflop no matter what I have...

500 k hands makes it seem that you are almost certainly a losing player. How often do you post hands/visit coachings/watch videos?

Increase your study -> play ratio.

Man, thats really really really fucking ugly.

On the other hand, even the ev isnt pointing towards +$$$.

Your motivation to play so many hands with not really fullfiling outcome makes me both envy and respectful.
Cuz u obv like poker so much and give it lot of time, I d like to offer you some sweat sessions, or mby if u record a vid, I could try to find some leaks and help you plug it.

I rly like ur dedication, so if u r interested PM me;)

You can't flame coolers on your EV-winrate when you have a 0.5M hands samplesize. You have to face the cold hard fact that you are losing player, and you will still be as long as you don't get a grip on your leaks, because there are probably lots of them.

My tip: Cut down on your tables. I assume you play a lot of tables. If you had a little more time for every decision you would probably not make that many mistakes. I have good experence doing this :)

I can play 100k hands a month without problems... I'm actually BE with bonuses and rakeback. Most of this graph was played on FTP NL10 where rake is %6.66... I'm not gonna play there anymore.. I have read and read and read the articles and videos over and over again. Playing aggro OOP, relatively more passively IP. That graph didn't include my play when I was playing 24/13/2 on bwin. I think it's hard to win by following the articles, coz articles recommend that you play balanced poker. I don't think playing balanced poker helps in the micros..

I think the others are right, 500k hands is a rediculous sample size. So you probably should try to improve your game whatever way you can. And play less tables. I don't know how much you play now.. but i would recommend 4-6 and see how that goes.. since you play 3k hands a day i bet it's alot more then 6 tables..

Variance in the first 500K hands can be brutal.

The problem is he is very barely beating it. He's only winning like 1-1.5BB/100BB which isn't very much, When you barely beat a limit the chances of you going way below ev and losing money are way bigger..

tbh i think this just shows you have 10* more dedication than the avg player and maybe twice as hard a time getting good at nl bss. this combo can net you a shitload of money if you use it right :).

1) watch dogisheads up series on dc
2) get a coach
3) play sngs instead if cashgames still aren't going your way (way easier to beat)
4) ???
5) profit

if variance kills you, its better to play FR, its alot less variance there if you're not too aggro. gz on this month
