Hello everybody, I hope your all ok during this coronavirus outbreak, my heart goes out to all those ❤.
I've recently returned to poker, maybe through boredom haha, I've been away for a while, I guess that's how I lost £300 pretty fast!
Anyways I'm back up to £250, from a £10 or so, and in bankrolling £250 so no biggie 😜
I'm playing on a phone, so I have no HUD.
Ive trying the bankroll tank roll.
£50 tables here I come, I hope I can figure out how to add some secrets haha
I just finished my session at NL50 started out great, I was up to £80 in no time, I decided to try a €20 HU I had him covered with AA vs JJ, and lost was down to 500 chips, then lost that game.
I noticed it effected my cash games very badly I made probably £100 mistakes after that, I pulled it back a little, now I'm bankrolling £265
Note to self dont play HU SNG they thrustrate me too much.
Going to play NL100 for fun gonna play 1 game and give it my best I'm avoiding high variance situations, I'm not shoving AA KK QQ or AK, gonna play flops
Well that went well flew up to €230, then started to make a few silly plays, left with €195
Bankrolling £358
Can anybody remember the tank roll bank roll I cant find it 🤔

Thanks for stopping by, I'm currently bankrolling, £378 I'm about to have a session I'll update you afterwards.
Yeah tell me about it, I had a lot of anger issues a few years back, when I used to be super active on here, I take it with a pinch of salt now, and just play for fun, my game seems to be much better for it, took me a while to remember how to play haha.
✌ out
OUCHHHHHH!
Man that last session sucked, I way overthinking during this hand.
I had 66 on BTN, BB called with T7
Flop 7 5 2 or summer similar
I check he checks
Turn T
I bed a 1/4 of the pot, he reraises and over shoved a brick river.
My thought process was way to far above the level of thinking it should have been, instead I should have said he has a strong hand fold, instead I think shes bluffing hers to steal the pot, and the over shove was to get me to fold a weak hand!
Calling reraises is never a great idea even with TPTK
That lead to some tilt and more mistakes, got to be the worst hand I've played haha.
Bankrolling £263
I can pull this back 🤣
Note to self "keep it simple stupid"
Keep it simple stupid - :mdr::..even more for myself.
I've read something that says: Don't let an idiot ruin your day
FrozenElf, certainty you go further than put back...

Haha, I like that one too "dont let an idiot ruin your day" I can use that in life 😂
After some serious yoyoing after the 66 incident yesterday, (slightly tilted), I decided to take a good break and get some rest.
I got my game back together today, now I'm bankrolling £385
Funny story, I got up to like €200 at 1 table, then I'm like ahhhhhhhh, I need to leave quick, but every one was still at 100bb 🤣
So I decided to play with the big boys and take a shot at NL400, my gosh are they aggressive.
I sat with 40bbs witch was €160, I lost a little to start with then got a double up, I 3 bet with 99 vs this loose player, then got cold 4bet, then my battery went, during the hand haha.
Bankrolling £409
Gonna take early shots at NL100
Ok so the last few days, I've been trying to multi table 3-4 tables, I've never been good at this in the past, I play my best just at 1 table.
The results were pretty bad, I dropped down to £250 after a few drinks and some influence from a friend, I use £50 on roulette, I instantly lost it 🤨, I've never really understood why people play that game, but each to there own ay.
This dropped me to £200, I left it fir a while cause I was pisssed off haha, I came back and won a little £225.
I then decided I'm gonna take a shot at NL200 I thought if I lost it's not the end of the world I can go back to NL5/10.
I had a pretty decent run of cards whith a few overly aggressive players, the kept betting at me with absolutely nothing ✌ thanks guys.
Currently bankrolling £538
Note to self - I'm playing 1 table from now on, when I figure out who's who at the table, I might add another if I'm playing well
Keep it simple stupid 🤣
NL100 here I come
Hi, FrozenElf!
I don't really thing it's a good idea to play at NL 100 with 4-5 BY. Not to mention other poker formats like HU or gambling at casino.
You don't know if you can beat micros, right? But to play NL 100+ with the big guys?
You will probably lose it all.
You have 500+ Euros. Why don't you play at NL 10 and start from there?

I have to agree with you but it seems he doesn't care about losing money. Each to his own I guess.
You are experimenting a great variance in your game. It looks like you have had enough room to recover from downsizings, but, wouldn't plus EV sticking where you have had an edge and increase your win rate?
Hey author and poker, thanks for stopping buy, I used to take the game super serious, it's just a little fun for me now, I have a decent strategy, it seems to be working ok.
I played a session last night, I tried to join a Nl100 table but there was noba available, so I decided to take a shot at NL200.
My results were outstanding, I left the game with roughly £1600, i had a good run a made some decent plays.
My dad likes to play too, but he only likes the tournaments, he came 2nd in one today and boosted me another £200.
Bankrolling £1996
Theres a higher limit bankrol tank roll challenge, gonna try that need to fine out the buying I cant remember Haha ✌
I haven't played much the last few days, it has been my brother birthday and what party we had, we had some friends and family turn up for a garden party, it went on for 2 days, I've been in bed recovering since Saturday 🤣 maybe I'm getting to old for it haha.
I hit £2090 bankroll, played a few hands badly at NL200 I was feeling uncomfortable, so I decided to drop down to NL100, they have these 50bb max buy in games on william hill.
This hand happened think I overplayed it myself, it was one of them higher variance plays I like to avoid because it tilts me.
I wish I had my pc it would be easier then trying to explain the hand this way haha. (I'm a godless chicken on my phone) I don't mind since I studied Jared's mental game of poker, it was my bible for a year or so, Huds xant tell you when ppl are tilting, but I've learned to recognise the patterns myself. Anyways onto the hand.
I'm BTN 88 I raise 3bb
BB 3 bets
I call
Flop Jh 8h 6c
BB bets a 3rd
I over shove he calls with T9
He wins
Should I have just call him down, what do you guys think, his 30% bet indicates a weak hand to me, or a draw, maybe call flop and shove turn on none completed draws puting the odds in my favour even more so?
What do you guys think?
Gonna take a stab at NL200, I'll tighten my game up a little, and try play my best if I make a few mistakes ill quit, and drop back down.
Bankrolling £1987
I think was pretty ok over shove - is what you want with monster hands - he calls you with an OESD.
Since lockdown, I'm jailed into my house.
@pokerbu3 yeah maybe I'm thinking too much into it, I think it either way would be fine, call flop and shove turn, whatever happens I can never fold there.
I used to think NL25 on Stars was bad for 3bet, NL200 is 3bet central, they soon back down after being attacked back with some 4bets, this session was a little up and down, a guy caught a 6 outa on the river in a 3 bet pot, I new he was holding AK vs my QQ terrible river call for £20 into a £100 pot, after that I made a very amature full stack mistake slightly, it tilted me my bankroll dropped to £1700, I gave my head a wobble and got back to my game.
Bankrolling £2156
Going to give NL200 another shot I just got froze out 🤨
Sleeping time after this ✌
Maaaaaan that last session was terrible I was bluffing like a nookie.
It's amazing how people can affect you game talking to you
Ban rolling £1900
People chatting near or talking with you when playing is one of the great tilt causes. My wife and daughter always said: Could you not stop a while and answer us.
I'm don't take poker seriously and don't like to play hours, but, when I sit to play I would like a minimum of respect
