Henrikov gets a walk with AA

Good luck henrikov!

Thanks HollyMichelle!!!!

Ok, Now I have decided to focus on cash games. Im not that good at it, but it is so many upsides which I can't ignore.

I will play NL50. Yeah, Yeah I know. You will say start on a lower limit and learn the game and yada yada yada. But I will start on NL50. I have a bank roll for it, if I run bad or is not good enough I start with NL20/NL25 instead. When I played cash games earlier on NL50 I think I was more or less break even, so this will be interesting.

I haven't been to work today because my son is sick, so I managed to squeeze in 2k hands during the day. I guess I will play an additional 1000-1500 hands later tonight.

I transfered money to ladbrokes and started up an account there. Now I will clear some bonus, collect gemstones and get some loyality point. But most of all crush NL50.
But holy shit, it was extremly fast on that site. I almost couldn't play 6 table similar. For example on party I can play 8 tables AND surf pokerstrategy.com, but on ladbrokes I didn't even manage 6.
I feel totaly empty after my first session there :). Well, well. I won 3BI so I guess it was worth it.

Good night and be careful out there......

The work to clear my bonus on ladbrokes has started. The bonus is payed out in 5 parts. I have to get 42000 loyalty points to get the whole bonus. That is 736 points per day. I recieved 1010 points today and played 2700 hands. So after doing the math i need to play like 2000 hands EVERY day to get the whole bonus. I will try, but it will be hard.

I post a graph of my first 9000 hands. Now I'm only waiting for my hands to be tracked here. I need them if I should be able to be a diamond this month.

Great!! Now my ladbrokes account is getting tracked here. It only took like 1 day. Let the gemstone chase begin....

I had a really bad poker day yesterday. When I was at the bottom I had lost 10BI. I recovered a bit the last hour and ended up with a lost 6BI. But you just have to get over it. Poker is a marathon not a sprint distans, right?

But it's not that fun when you have lost 20% of your roll in like 2 hours. I felt like I would puke. Actually, it wouldn't be that strange if I did. my whole family, except me, has been ill this week :).

The only good thing with my poker yesterday was that i had a huge volume of hands. It tends to be that way when you lose alot. You keep playing to win some back.

Hey henrikov

good luck with your goals! Yeah downswings suck but are inevitable so you just have to soldier on!!

Hey,

But it's not that fun when you have lost 20% of your roll in like 2 hours.

This should never happen. You are either playing with shallow bankroll or you dont have stop loss. Losing such a big part of your bankroll in a day wont lead to good thnigs bankroll management wise and psychology wise. You should look into that as it may cause you trouble in both short and long run.

Good luck on the tables

Yeah, I guess I need to have some kind of stop loss. What is a proper stop loss? 4BI?

Really depends on how conservative your BRM is and how many tables you are playing. For some people 3 BI is ok for other 6 BI is ok, you have to figure it out for yourself, but you definitely shouldnt have 20% BR losing days.

Had a quite good poker day. + 4-5BI or something like that. I won 3BI the last ten minutes of the session ♦.

Well time to go to bed. I have catched a bad cold. I tried to show the body how is in charged by drinking an Irish Coffee that had so much whiskey you could see through it, but it didn't work as expected....

And diamonds are forever.....

Tonight is tourny night.

I will play 7 tourneys with buyin between $5 and $20. I taking a break from my CG play and bonus chase. I'm before schedual to clear the bonus so it's no problem to squeeze in a tourny day today.

Didn't get ITM in any of the 7 tourneys yesterday and on top of that I lost a $200 pot in cashgames. Set vs. set. ♠_cry: .... but a new day is dawning.

Had a good day today. 3.5BI in winnings and I cleared the first 20% of my bonus and recieved my first $250 bonus cash out.

But I have been through some wild shit the last days. Ok, sometimes I tilt, but this is ridiculous. I guess I had won the best tilt picture if the competition was still on.....
