Bankroll building - moving through the Micros! NL2-NL50

Hi vonki,

GL in your exams.

PASTY: it is a variety of the Cornish traditional meal. Was given to the miners by their wive. Legend says that one half was a meaty main and the other a desert. The miners would leave the crust for the "knockers", spirits said to create a knocking sound that was either supposed to indicate the location of rich veins of ore, or to warn of an impending tunnel collapse.
With Cornish showing many countries how to mine the pasty made its way around the world, with the recipe being adapted by everyone.

haha wow, that's really cool actually ♦ Thanks for the information, rly interesting. Makes sense to make half of it sweet as a desert actually, we thought about making some sweet ones as well but since I've never tried it before I went with bolognese stuffing and tuna/onion/cheese in the other...

Can't believe I woke up at 6.45 on a saturday. Sipping on some coffee now and preparing myself for a 3 hour long exam... Hope it all goes well, but I have a pretty good feeling. I'm well prepared. Have a great weekend guys, hope you're all sleeping well tucked down in your warm beds

Hell yea, passed the exam with flying colors

I'd planned to take a while off and regenerate from all the stress and intense studying, but I think I'll put in a session for the challenge first

♠_thumbsup:

WP congratz, on your exam!

Congratulations on passing your exam, Vonki.

Congratz with your exam! Cool challenge, will follow

Thanks guys!

Woke up sick yesterday stressing too much is really unhealthy. so this week I will try to find a balance between getting enough things done but at the same time try to rest and get well again! poker from bed perhaps?

Will post the GRODT update shortly! or poor Sven will get sad

Week 31 summary

Hands: 429
Profit: $1.32
Current BR: $436.69

Ran QQ into KK and QQ into AA but still managed to get a positive EV result, so I'm all happy

So I'm searching around for a headset... I want/need a USB one, every time I find one I could imagine it's not USB... The laptop I bought has only 1 input for headset so I'd either need one of those adapters but I'm a bit worried about sound quality using that one... and the headset I have isn't very comfortable anyway, so I thought I might as well get a comfy USB headset.

Does anyone have experience with this brand? It has 4/5 stars but I'd rather hear some feedback from someone here

Hi Vonki,

bit worried about sound quality using that one

I have no problem with using adapter. Works pretty fine for me.

Depending on how much you can spew and how into quality you are, I would recommend sennheiser, also helps if you have a decent audio card on your laptop.

Oh, okay. Might go for that option then! Thanks

Ah, okay, thanks. I also saw these Sades headphones on amazon, but if I remember correctly they had just 3,5 stars. I hate buying new things, have such a hard time deciding sometimes... can say it's not always so easy having a female brain

Hey, just signed-in. Read everything from the start up til the post you're asking about WR in micros. To share mine is around 7-8bb/100 NL2 and 5-6bb at NL5. Those are regular tables. my WR might be a bit low, but that's because I was aiming for numbers instead of WR back then, so I was contented. Now I'm cutting down the number of tables I played and stop the robotic type of approach and play more actively. Robotic approach worked for me but only up til NL5, NL10 it seems quite different, small sample size there though so can't say yet.

Hi vonki
Congrats on your exams!!
If you are looking for a good quality headset for recording your videos then I would recommend Audio Technica BPHS1 I have used a previous model before and they are really well built and the audio quality is really clear.

Thanks for sharing! What sample do you have on each limit? Well done, either way!

Thank you! but, being a girl not liking too spend too much $$ on tech stuff, that one seems a bit out of my price range thanks anyway for the suggestion!

Around 800k for NL5 and more than 1.2M for NL2. Can't post photo's though(Basic Status :P)..

Sick that you have grinded that many hands on those limits why not move up faster when you have that nice winrates?
