Quite a sick volume for my taste as well.
I wish I could put in 80k hands in a single month :(

Cheers!
S :f_grin:

thank you sir. Well I have to put max volume before school, I won't be able to play more than 40k next month, so hardcore grind ftw!

doomswitch ftw, solid month :f_biggrin:
you know one of those of days when nothing works, you run into everyone's top range, nobody folds when you bluff, and when you have a hand it is snappy snap fold everwhere. bleh, I just have to focus more that's all, hope it won't last

ouch, my last few months were kinda the same. It's very tilting(atleast to me). Kept getting coolered in the big pots like you say.

Good luck catching up with the EV.

EV dosen't say much imo, I'm losing much more on the river, getting coolered or spewing, whatever.
but yeah, winning a flip or two and trips holding vs the fish jamming naked fd 200bb deep would help too
but what can I do, just grind grind grind :)

Yea i know what you're saying, you can't see that 'invisible' variance that easily. But the EV does say something. :P

two interesting hands today.

so vilain is a more or less decent reg, otr I'm like fuck my life and snap fold because I don't want to level myself. I think he will show JJ or better so often. life is cruel sometimes but we move on _cry:

one of the biggest hero calls I've made in a while, he will have so many naked fds/oesd here, and we have a bit of table dynamics with each other so I tanked for a long time and called. vilain is a reg, takes wierd lines and def average or below average

I've just read your whole blog. Really nice progress. :)

In the beginning I had a feeling like you're a guy with a bit of attitude. Reading on I realized that's partly true since you obviously must have a bit of attitude to be able to crush so hard. After reading 13 pages you do seem like ok guy

Also, when average fish reads your blog he really gets a feeling 'I can do it too'. When in reality you probably have better working habits than most of us. Respect for big grinding discipline.

Keep it up!

going through the most horrible downswing since august, volume sucks because of school and frustration, it is hard to not tilt when I can't have a single winning session, so I just quit whenever I loose alot.

Ugh tough luck, I had to start september aswell with a massive downswing. But ur graph does show Tilt moments? I.e. the drops like the one at ~9k hands happen a bit too much imo to be 'just' variance.

not really tilt, I don't tilt that much and when I tilt I snap quit, it is mostly an insane amount of coolers/bad beats as you can tell from ev graph, anyway I haven't been playing my A game in a long long time, playing scared money is my worst nightmare and you just can't play good when you run like shit, but I will grind my way way out eventually, not my first downswing anyways :f_biggrin:
