$100k ASAP challenge AGAIN! ItsNeverEasy.

I managed to finally play my round 1 match in the HU Championship. I ended up winning nearly 2 buyins at NL50. I am so rusty with my HU play, was pretty dissapointed with my HU skills tbh. We played 300 hands total and there were like 1k situations where I wasn' sure what the right strategy is lol. My opponent was playing very aggressively and I am not sure if that is just the optimal HU play or if he was overdoing it a little bit. One example was him 4bet/calling with 33 - that can't be right, can it?

Anyways looking forward to some more HU practice in the next rounds.

4bet/calling 33 is pure spew

You have to be pretty aggro in 3 bet and 5 bet shoving for him to call you off with 33 there. Also no need for it since round lasts 1.5 hour and it is very variance affected.

Th000 is my new favorite Human player for sure. Brutal strategy and ability to adjust in game to his opponent tendencies.

Most Entertaining Game Ever!

Grubby is still my favourite player!

I don't fully understand whats going on or who has the advantage at times; but its very interesting! ^_^

Alright boys, I have won my round 2 match. So it seems I have qualified for Round 3!

Congrats!
I am not sure how long it needs to go before we meet? I also went through 2nd round, playing WillyD and potentially coach Double2 in 4th round

Ship some more Warcraft replays, Th000 ftw (Human my favorite race!)

NICE!

@ IvicaIliev77: Congrats to you too

Days 87 - 119

April has been nice =). I played quite a bit high stakes and figured out a couple new thing about poker. It was an up and down month but in the end it was good results wise. Volume is a bit lower, but thats to be expected when I play more high stakes then mid stakes.

I am also in the quarter finals of the HU championship. It was super fun to play as I played all of my matches at NL50, which means there's absolutely no pressure when compared to my regular limts. HU is a completely different game so i definetely learn from the HU championship.

I was also invited to comment 2 HU games with Lem0n. Its the first time I ever comment a game and it sure is a lot of fun. My upcoming game is apparently going to be commented on so i'm under some pressure to show my best.

Yesterday the most tilting thing happened to me at the tables. I almost never tilt - at least not the 'raging tilt'. However, I get super pissed off when I get timed out and folded. This time I had aces in the HJ with a massive fish being in the BB. As I tried raising, my mouse batteries died! WTF?!!! So sick!

Looking forward to finish my challenge in May and live happily ever after.
