Get rich or die trying' - From the Micros to the Top...

Hey Michael,

Welcome to the blogs

I'm not surprised you play NLHE when you work in a car factory. After all it is the "Cadillac" of poker.

If you mix and match games and formats, then you may find it difficult to find your leaks.

GL and hope to see you around the forums,

Laz

Thank you Lazza61.
Lol, i would like to build cadillacs too
I dont mix games yet, but when i closed my NLHE leaks and have build up a nice bankroll i want to take 1 day a week too learn a new game...

Ok, first Session is done, 8 hours NLH10 Zoom 6 Max.
Im pretty tired now and had a really sick run...

For the First 2K hands i just got rivered all the time, boards ran out really sick.
The next 1500Hands i was pretty card dead. But in the End i just Hit 'em High!!!
Although i ended 2BI below EV im pretty happy.
My red Line looked much better, although it dropped after adding 2 more tables.
I got 400VPP today, thats what i do the Zoom Sessions for. I would be happy even if i ran out +/-0. So im happy now and i will post some Hands soon.
Bankroll now 312,32$.

Here is todays graph

Here some interesting Hands:

Im too tired to comment them, i will do it with next Hands...

I really hate Mondays!!!!!
Had a real bad day at the tables, hitting all my hands, got the money in... and drowned in the river

Lost 6BI, -2EV. Stopped it for now, go to Bed and take another Shot tomorrow. I know i cant win every Session, but i just hate loosing. I should have a Beer or smoke a Blunt now...

Well, just played a short Session before work, lost about 7$ on getting rivered. So i decided to review my latest Sessions to see if it was my fault. But most of the time i was massive ahead on the Turn and lost on the River, so not my Fault.
But again spottet some other Leaks i have to close...
While I even won Money on the SB, after improving my red Line, i still loose too much from the BB. And i still call too much, which costs me money. Postflop skills dont help too much on micos, were most people just dont fold. Should tighten up until i reach NLH50 or NLH100.
Whatever, good night and good luck at the tables, if anybody really reads this stuff...

Hey Michael,

I'm reading.

Cheers

Laz

"postflop skills" in games where people dont fold = being a good value bettor

yes, no bluffing, just betting for value

Today just played 2 short sessions, hope i have more time tomorrow.
At least had some small winnings again
But still didnt hit much on the flops, feel a little unlucky.
Here is todays graph:

Here some Hands:

This one is nice, im small Favorite on the Flop, he wants to protect his weak TP, but with so many outs i call his shove

Thank you, cant wait to get too NL25, but i want a solid bankroll first.

Hey guys, sorry for keeping u waiting, but it was along and hot weekend here, so i spent my time on the beach and getting drunk on partys ♦

But now im back with some updates.
As already mentioned above, i had some losses on zoom last week, so i decided to go back to my favourite deep stack game, where i could regain my losses.
So last weeks downswing ended almost breakeven then...
