the hand made my day ♦

since the day is over only now for me i wanted to updated that i put a lot of grinding today becuase i felt i have a chance to leadboards.right now i am on 9th place and tomorrow i will see exactly.

today i played 93 games and i am up 38BI with a total of 46BI for the mouth.i just can't believe.

now i am going to sleep and tomorrow i will wake up and maybe take some shots to 15$.

see you tomorrow

time for an update

started to play 15$.is not a good start but i won't give up so fast.

i played more last week and i have a decent voulme so i can slow it down a few days and start studying more.

It's definitely a positive thing that you are willing to study the game. Me- I always go with my instincts. I mean... I've seen a few TV shows about poker. Watching Helmuth play was really helpful, just saying... ♠_biggrin:

go go go go crush the 15$s?

1)Which do you believe are the 5 best reg in 7$ limit?
2)Which is your nickname?

alx91281 is my nickname
i don't know right now.i have some noted as good regs.no i want to buy some searches on sharckscope to see what are the good reg better.

didn't play so much.i have been pretty busy this week but i studied a bit more.this week i am going to play more.i am really exited about the 15$ and will update.

thanks for reading

If you are able to beat the 15$s with a decent ROI- 5%+ you will feel pretty confident about your play + you will probably make some decent money on a side if you put 1k+ games a month. So good luck there!

i got a heater on the 15$.i am up 20BI for today.

at 7$ i am still under EV but there is no problem.this mounth i am up almost 600$.it is a very nice boost to my bankroll.

Hey hows it going man just noticed your blog. ♠_biggrin: Fellow SnG grinder on stars aswell. Was playing $7 9mans with some $15s for awhile dont think i remember coming across you maybe thats a good thing Recently moved to 18mans though so We wont have to worry about that for now All the best in your poker journey and Il catch you at the top ♦

thanks man.good luck to you too.

what made you move to 18 mans?

last few days i bought some seraches on sharkscope to see the winning regs.is really helpfull.didn't play so much but i have some chances to go on the leadboard again.i have to play like 40 tournaments to each limit.i will play them today and tomorrow.

i still have confidence that i can play 1000 games this mounth even i am a bit late with schedule.

this days i will try to play some MTT at micro milions because they wont hurt my bankroll and if i go deep i will play more STT too.

a small problem is that i checked my HEM statistics and in like 1400 games a have a 4.3% ROI at 7$ and i think i pretty small.(this is EV ROI becuse winnings are lower).anyway i think i imrpoved since i start playing.

i will come with updates if something interesting happens.

7$ have too many regs good or bads and they are making variance huge

updates?

pretty bad last few days.had a bit of a downswing on the 15$ and 7$ like 300$ and before that i withdraw some money and now i am playing only the 7$ becuase i have 50BI for it and i don't want to risk.

i am not tilt at all.i am surprised about how i handle this.now i want to work on my game and try to improve to be more prepaired for the 15$.

anyway i believe i played well on the 15$ but variance was not on my side and the withdraw crippled my BR a bit so next time i will move to 15$ i will crush them.

what stakes are you playing grindtolive?

15$ mostly but right now 7$

To escape from the reg infestation of 9mans ♦ 18m are softer than 9mans so you can also expect a better ROI.Know a couple of guys crushing the 18s so decided to jump on the band wagon
