Hobos 45Man Grind, Threadsavers ITT

Good luck Hobo! First time I see that 3 out of 4 goals are cash, I like it. People try not to set cash goals but hey, cash is why we play, not # of hands after all

Hey Antony,

Welcome to the forum, great to see you blogging!

Setting monetary goals is usually not a good idea. One of the downsides is that due to variance, it may take a very long time to actually reach them. This could easily get you frustrated, causing you to lose motivation.

But it's all up to you of course! If you do reach your money goals quickly, it's obviously a great feeling

Good luck

Kind regards,
Tino

First 26 games went ok alot of people dont understand icm at this level lost alot of flips in standard spots but overall im happy. Gonna review my game see where improvements can be made ♦

With the flat call pre i put him on mid/low suited connectors. decided to float the min cbet on flop. When he checks the turn i decide to go for the thin value bet on river. Was this a profitable play in the long run?

ThreadSavers

Was running so bad today but still manage a profit ♦. Should've been alot more but what can you do. i made the correct plays just ran into monster coolers at the FT.

Threadsaver

Had a decent day but ran so bad on the final table busted twice on bubble.Six 5th places. Five 4th places. Feel like i should of done more. Games are so soft a 70%+ Roi over the long run easily attainable.

Heres todays graph. Note to self More volume needed

No threadsaver?
