I think you'll find it's blog #5

No essays - solid learning ITB!

In before JB blows his top about me starting another blog

Anyways.... I failed to mention that I will be getting some coaching from our long-time member and new coach Tim64. He has just started his private coaching here with PokerStrategy.com.

I am really looking forward to this and I have no doubt that Tim will be able to help me on the right road

Today I played a 4 game set which seems like an eternity ago! It was at 7am this morning ♦

In the end, I was happy with my overall play. Still going over the basics so I marked a lot of hands in HEM and posted them for evaluation. All in all - it looks like I have a lot of stuff to learn and learn correctly this time around!

At this point I will be playing very little and absorbing as much knowledge as possible!

Ended the set with 1 victory, 1 third and 2 no cashes so a huge $2.xx profit!

#ShippingTheBigBucks!

good luck with your journey.

you can beat the 1.5$.you played even 216$ sng ♦

Thank you Alex!

Hopefully I can get back there at some stage in the future but not for once offs

Learning before earning is my new motto

No time to update this morning but played 4 games and cashed in 0!

Played so bad and will review this evening. Had time to post a few hands for evaluation though!

Good luck garbo!

Good luck Gary!

Thank you Gerovit!

Nice pic Ingi

Will be home from work shortly so going to review this mornings session and post some more hands for evaluation. I have the poor judges on overdrive at the moment but at least I'm learning new stuff

Let's hope this old dog can be taught new tricks

Played a decent session of 8 games this evening! Not too bad at all volume wise for me anyways.

Played fairly decent from memory but only cashed twice and they were both second places. I ran into monster hands everywhere but hopefully I will make a nice shiny review in the morning if I get up in time!

Not too worried about results at this point. My goal for the first two weeks is to get the ruddy basics down and read a few articles and watch some videos.

Looking forward to my coaching as well

I really hope Tim knows what he has got himself into

Ciao for now!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Probably could have folded and waited for a better spot but I could not let go of that super shiny A-high that everyone just loves to hate ♦

Was running into a lot of monsters last night in the late goings. I did make up for it in this hand though

Always nice to flop a straight ♦

Spending a lot of time reviewing my hands at the moment. In fact I'm probably over doing it. Just completed my session review from last night and posted a tonne of hands for evaluation. Once I'm happy that I've the basics down (bet-sizing, cbets, push/fold I am going to watch some videos and delve a lot more into ICM)

Have yourselves a good Friday folks!

Another sigh session tonight consisting of 6 games.

Only one cash though which I'm not best pleased about cos I like to win but today was not my day.

In almost every game I had a big hand early on that either got outdrawn on the flop or was not good enough to continue on with. Will review all hands in the morning and post some hands for evaluation as there is still a lot of spots where I am unsure.

God help Chenny and parodiq in the hand evaluation forums!

After game 5 where I was CL with 3 remaining I proceeded to lose every flip and by the time I exited in 3rd I tilt shoved something rather bad in the final game

At least it was the end of the session but I am going to have to work on my tilting!

Noticed you guys are posting a whole bunch so maybe I should post some threadsavers?
