Hello everyone !

The purpose of this blog will be to track my progress for the next 24 months.

Long story short : I used to grind 25 & 50NL ring game tables for a living in the last years, now I switched to zoom after I joined BsB Team on the 1st May 2014, withdrawn a part of my bankroll for living expenses and left 50 buy-ins for 25NL.

Short term goal : improve as much as I can and play a minimum of 50k hands/month.

Mid term goal (until the end of 2014) : 5bb/100 at 100NL ZOOM on a decent sample & shoot 200nl.

Long term goal : establish myself as a good regular at 500nl ZOOM.

Below you can see the graph since I started this cool deal.

Rough start! :(

We shall turn things around! For now keep your head up and it's been a pleasure coaching you so far! There's no doubt in my mind you will be able to reach your goals and surpass them! ;)

Looking forward to all updates and all the sexy graphs you can post and any interesting hands as well! Hopefully you will look back at this graph and have some laughs in the end. :)

It's actually quite funny how his hand actually is within 1% (equity-wise) of being an ok call here vs your particular hand :f_biggrin:
Obviously it's not doing so good vs ur entire range.. :P

Yesterday I was too lazy to post update

I need to play shorter sessions because this is a pattern: in the last few months I lost ~70% of winnings in the last few hundred hands.

Here is a silly hand :f_cry: .. I was 100% sure he's betting 6x otf since he has a high flop cb so I got a little bit too creative :

GOOD/BAD fold vs relatively unknown 22/13 after 20 hands, resteals 1/2 from sb, 0% flop cb 3b pot (hidden from search feature)?

Short update for today, this is the first session.. not the best start but what can you do ? it's part of the game, the hands below might be considered coolers or I can't find the fold button :f_biggrin:

BB seems to be a weak reg, CO&SB look fishy after a small sample.. given the texture of the board I expect them to raise flop with big hands & flop FD missed

Why do you lead river?

I think he will ck behind 2p/set but will call 1/2 donkbet.. i'm not sure it's the best line but that's what i thought in the heat of the battle :f_biggrin:

I like the lead. Pretty much any SD value w/o Tx is mostly checking back. Can't see him have a lot of air -except for some busted FDs.
So I think your donk provides the best value.

Im not sure I like the call though based on how much more it is to call vs what you've invested. I dont see many ppl shoving Txs here when its not the nuts. At best they might minraise.
Unless you think he is capable of doing this w his busted FDs or some weird air hands?

Gl w the grind. Expecting more interesting hands

If he's a nit don't see him shoving busted draws, although I've never played nl25 zoom so not sure! Rake is also a consideration when calling to split.

I hated the lead when I first saw it, now I think I just hate your sizing lol. I'll need to think about it a bit more... When I commented I was thinking 'hero can't have many Tx combos in his range so villain might value bet some sets etc'.

I agree especially against the nit folding is better , I think i was affected a little bit by tilt :f_cry: " *&$% this.. i'm not folding 2nd nuts ".

Can you explain a little bit more please ? my reason for leading was that he doesn't vb thin so I wanted to get value from 2p/sets.
