Well today it was the other way again:

So not really much interesting spots today.
Interesting is that NL16 seems quiet similar to NL10.
Do you have got the same experience?

The pool is small so i guess it will have got some hands on the regulars and can see where to exploit them...

Good luck to all of you

I think i would use the Set-Up won tag on the second hand and Bad Beat tag on the first one but it also depends on your opponent profile and your own image at the table.
Let's say your image is Tag and your opponent is Lag, he might think he can outplay you postflop , if your image is Lag and he is a Reg he might think his hand is good enough to see a flop....
Also there is Lags with a brain and no Brainer Lags

Well how do you tag the villains?
Which system do you take to tag a villain? (number of tables, stacksize, stats...?)

Hello guys,

last month i lost some bucks, some due to lost set-ups and some (more) due to bad play and tilt...
So i made the decission to try something new... beeing even more consequent.
So i will start a challange for my own:
Playing NL10 to the end of the year, mostly one table, when running hot two tables of zoom.
To controll myself i started a new database for the challange (when i get the roll to move up to nl16 again, i will continue with that database i had before)

So my goal for the challange is, playing at least 25k hands zoom until end of this year.

I made some further poker related goals:
sorry i wrote them down in german.... i will tranlate if someone is interested in more details....

So focus for this year is learning and improving my game so that i can move up in the limits next year....
Hopefully that works for me, because i`m quiete sure that i will beat nl10....
To control progress in playing hands just on nl10, i will post a graph every week (tuesday or wednesday).

I will try to implement a warm-up routine as well, which i tried before but did most of the time not....

Results so far:

So i detected some bigger leaks which i will try to close to end of the year....

GL at the tables to you

Hello guys,

i started my challange and played some hands...
i just managed to make a warm up before the session and managed the focus in playing A-Game and focussing on implementing some learned things.

No sample so far:
