First day i win NL25 playing 6 tables. This is great after yesterday i lost a large part of my bankroll, now i am saved again.
It is weekend and i had fish near me but most of $ i made from regulars.
However ,I made a lot of adjustments to my game.
I played very simple, and only had 2 tough spots.
Had many beautilfull hands, Here is a print screen of my 2 big monitors with me not losing at a single table.

Update: won a bit more after i posted this. Today winnings = 218.90$

Can I ask about your AT suited play on your first video. Why do you go all in . Im not an expert but doesnt makes sense for me. Opponent played aggressive pref lop so AK will obvious be in his range, also AA KK QQ JJ so you don't have much fold equity and it leaves you with only 40% equity,

It is explained in the video when i make the calculations
If he goes all in with AK or whatever in the 4bet pot, the pot odds are 37.77%. (we need to win more than 37%)
If he goes all in , we have 37% equity from flush draw. (compared to 37.77% , if we call an all in we are break even in long run)
However if we are the ones to go all in , we have more equity because we fold some hands. So we transform a break even situation into a profitable one. I assumed an 8% fold equity which would make the all in +ev. If he never 4bet bluffs then it is break even on fhe flop, so not entirely bad.

Bottom line is: Ship flush draws in 4bet pots.

Played a bit of NL2 in day 21,22 because i tried a few lines. Last week i had a -150$ day and day after +200$.
My mental game seems to be strong, as i did not tilt. wow :)

What i am working on is:
-have the preflop learned by heart so that i use more focus on other parts of my game instead of choosing hands to play
-river call decisions (pot odds , equity exercises , 10 for each day)

Exploitative play
-make notes when i see something weird and figure out what is the missbalance in villain range when he does that play.
Ask what is the most obvious way to exploit this?

Additional plan?
Play 1 table and crush and at the end of the month move to NL50.
Should i want to move up if i dont know my ranges ?

I am actually in the process of learning gto-ish ranges (cc,3b,vs 3b). and mixing a few charts:
-from w34z3l walktrough i take cc,3b ranges and mix them with ranges from Gordon (eg.. vs utg who opens 14%...)
-from Double2 i take vs 3b call ranges (eg .. vs 6% 3b , vs 8%, vs 10%...)
-opening ranges i like from oblioo
Does not really matter where you learn from. The bad part is that it is such a pain to learn them! Just sick pain!

Spoiler

What really happened here?
First played 4 tables and won a bit, was happy. Then opened 8 tables and played decent.
However i won 2 buyins and was at 0 because of how bad was my redline.
Played more, tightened up in some ways, made decent plays.
I added things up and if i didnt mistake river calls i could have saved 100$. First session was -180$
After that i took a nap and then played 2 tables and won some back.

All sessions today. What a day!

What should i learn from this?
Just dont play more than 2-3 tables because i dont learn.
Stop being so lazy and just learn the ranges!
