Hey dude, been reading your blog for a while and find it impressive/motivational. I got a question; a while ago I saw one of your posts to someone pointing out some good videos and articles to read. Can you remember what they are as i kind find that post.
Also with your 3K BR what limits do you play BRM wise?

Hey there! I'm happy you like my blog :)

Hmm, I think the article you mean might be this one: Post-flop: Standard play against one opponent. It's for newcomers but very helpful at the beginning in my opinion. I don't know how good you are, so if you know all the stuff already, just skip it.

With $3k I'm mostly playing $2/$4, $1/$2 SH and HU, also taking shots at $3/$6 SH.

So it's 500+ BB, a bit too aggressive for a semi-professional play, but sometimes the fish just sits at 3/6.

Here's the post I meant. Gonna look at these this weekend and the HU standard play one. (read it the other day but never made any notes). I've just started playing SH (and loving it) so if you can think of any other helpful content, your advice would be very appreciated

This is what happens when Ingrid wishes good luck at the tables to me:

Standard sample:

Cassava Poker $3/$6 Limit Hold'em - 4 players

Pre Flop: (1.333 SB) Hero is BB with A :spade: A :club:
1 fold, BTN calls, SB calls, Hero raises, BTN calls, SB calls

Flop: (6 SB) 3 :spade: A :diamond: 2 :heart: (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets, BTN raises, SB calls, Hero 3-bets, BTN caps!, SB calls, Hero calls

Turn: (9 BB) K :spade: (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, BTN bets, SB calls, Hero raises, BTN 3-bets, SB folds, Hero caps!, BTN calls

River: (18 BB) 2 :club: (2 players)
Hero bets, BTN raises, Hero 3-bets, BTN caps!, Hero calls

Final Pot: 26 BB
Hero shows A :spade: A :club:
BTN shows 4 :club: 5 :club:
Hero wins 25.667 BB
(Rake: $2.00)

- make it to Platinum status at 888
- improve my game and mindset

[x] Diamond at PS
[x] Platinum at 888 (double rakeback from now on!)
[x] I think I have improved my game, about the mindset I can't be sure

October was so successful that I even got tired of poker after achieving all of my goals and being up $1.3k in 4 days. So I had to take a break for few days, after which I managed to lose a bit again :)

good luck everyone and see you in November :f_grin:

Played a little bit 5/10 tonight, won a $200 pot. Overall it went break even (yes, -$100 is break even now, sick!)

I have been watching lots of FL SH and HU videos on DC from June, also some videos here on PS. I also do regular session reviews with datsmahname via Skype. I play 2-3 tables, usually 1-3 hours in a session and mostly 2-4 hours a day.

Mindset-wise I would recommend the Eightfold Path series on DC. It changed my life...

About the results... of course I'm running hot, but I also tableselect hard and only play if I feel that I have solid edge over the opponents.
