From SNGos to zoomees

Hi golden-bode,

great graph (and not saying this only because you are my friend )

I know Bode for many many years, he's one of my best friends, and he is a great guy!

I look forward to read your blog and follow your development, I'm sure you'll crush all these levels coming

Also, we have a lot of great guys grinding STTs here in the community who will be very helpful along the way I'm sure.

Best of luck Bode,

keep us updated!

Cheers!
Fran

Hi community!!!

I caught a bit of time to write a couple of things.
in a small downswing but I think it's because I started to play knockout turbos 3.5$. I started to play cash and zoom because lack of time(I have regular job). I started very good with cash and I will try to larn as much as I can about zoom.
Here is my graph from stngos

and for cash from march

Here is my most profitable hand on cash

Nice work for now Bode,

I wanted to merge your threads because you made a new thread instead of posting in your blog, but I see that you realized this yourself, so I will just move your "new" thread.

Also, you are a gold member, so if you want to some of our coaches evaluate your hands you are welcome to post them in hand evaluations parts of the forum. Here is one for SNGs up to $5, and here is one for cash games up to 0.05/0.10.

Best of luck bro,

Fran

Following!
Good luck with both SNG and Zoom!

Yesterday had bad day... 4 buyins lost on zoom on nl10. I played just 8 stngos...Didnt do well either. I dont know if I was lucky 2 days ago when i had profit of 9 buyins... Still not sure if I am g ready for zoom so I will continue to play sitngos and full ring cash... Played some bad hands yesterday which I was aware as soon as I played them so it is obe good thing of all bad things.
Today I will put some volume to sitngos and put graph

Cheers!

Another STT blog
Will be following
GL and hope to see you soon at my tables

Tnx mate

Hi Bode,

Dropping few buy in's here and there is perfectly normal, so no worries

Usually, I would suggest to stick to only one format, but it seems that you are doing pretty well in both 9mans and FR cash, which makes a lot of sense too, I think that you can't go wrong if you play FR cash micros similarly to early phase of 9mans.

However, mixing formats is not that easy and fun as it looks like at first. It can be pretty frustrating if you do well on one format and in downswing on other, so be sure you are mentally prepared for these things. Otherwise, it can cause you tilting off some money, which is never nice.

I'm sure you'll do well, just study, study, study, and don't get lazy

Cheers bro!
Fran

We most certainly didn't remove your graphs, so I guess there is a problem with the site where you upload your images, maybe to try some other site? or re-try with the same one?

ok. tnx

here is my graph again

and for cash...little downswing but today 2 bb up hihi

Today really bad day. Having downswing on stt's almost 30 buyins and i shuould be up by 10... Really in a bad mood...fishes had a really good day with me today...i lost impossible hands... So in the next days I will try to lern more and play less stt's and play zoom more because I am confident about my cash play on nl10 limits...
Cheers

I decided not to play stt's for some time. I will focus on cash game from now on i play some mtt's on the side. Today I am 4 bb up ♠_cool: ♦
Played micromillions and got in the money in the one but had realy bad luck...tables are filled with fishes...so i recommend everyone to play. Today had just one big mistake on cash because i overplayed. Today I played good non showdown game as can be seen on the graph.

Here is my graph for today

and the whole graph from the start

Cheers,
goldenbode ♠_cool:

Today i played 3k hands. Didn't have any luck against fishes but managed to finish session 2 buyins up. Played turbo hot 3.30 a got in the money(10$).
Lot of really bad players on small stake mtt's.
All in all realy satisfied about my play today.
Heading out for a drink.
Here is my graph for today

It looks like you are crushing cash games at your level, as much as sng's, will you make your final decision on what will you play or you'll continue mixing these two?

I guess its not an easy call for you when doing great in both

Sweet worries

Keep on the good work,
Fran
