Good luck bro!

Sorry for the bulgarian . What videos will you upload video section of PokerStrategy.com?Records from the sessions or what?

Yeah i was just gonna ask you to write in English because i`m pretty sure the admins won`t like the Bulgarian here.
I will upload my sessions and results from the challenge, some interesting hands etc.
You guys feel free to write me a msg here or facebook if you want me to review a hand or give you any advice

Thank you for the participation

So first session went good. I had 3 times quads and 1 of them got payed off. I had some interesting coolers like set TT got crush by set KK's on the river, and a brutal bad beat with ~5% ♦ i don`t tilt or get mad , i actually get amused by the way the variance works. Besides that i had some lucky moments as well such as my set vs str8 got FH on the river ( yay ) and a couple chopped pots when i was actually dominated.

second session was insane for the 1st 1k hands ... even i got a player like this : ( use boom or just read it )

i mean how can u not win ...
I noticed something that i didn`t think before, people tend to fold to river bets way more often than not. Idk if it`s the traffic i`m getting or what but my approach in general was "never bluff the river because you'll get called" but lately people do fold on my river bets. So now i`m on a fence - do we bluff or not on NL2. Only time will tell. After a few more thousand hands maybe i`ll see this clearer.

Last session was fun :

This is how the sessions look like. It could be way better if the variance wasn`t that bad ( maybe 15/100bb why not ). For the graph and the video you`ll have to wait until friday i will post the link here as well

The good, old "overbet the river when you have the nuts" - so this still works in 2016 :-)
