43k hands and I'm ready to move up to nl10, now have a bankroll of 25 buy-ins for nl10 HAPPY DAYS!! made up.
so this is the first time ive ever taken it serious and really tried to move up the stakes and play a lot of poker.
so nl5 and what ive learnt
graph:
from this graph I'm winning roughly 9bb/100
ive learnt I cant play more than 2 tables at a time.
ive learnt not to over stretch myself by playing too many hours or I start to tilt a bit
losing one buyin is NO BIG DEAL in the long run of things so tilting isn't going to solve anything (hard lesson) (takes time and winning to realize this)
I need to continue studying the game
its not going to take a day or one video of ranges or equity to be a master
strategy doesn't just become part of your game because you know something
ive learnt not to overload with information (ONE STEP AT A TIME)
I was trying to overload with equity information and advanced math at the table. I'm not even close to dealing with this.
just learning one thing RANGES, has vastly improved my game.
and last but not least .... I LOVE POKER HaHa
so on the graph there is a 20k hands in the middle that I am just breaking even and this is when I was 4 tabling. not good that its just break even poker. so I knocked it down to 2 tables again and my winrate increased again to roughly 20bb/100. I need to give each and every hand my full attention as I'm just not able to make best decision instinctually. I'm not a genius haha.
last 10k hands when I started studying again and a bit more methodical :
OH AND IVE ALSO LEARNT NOT TO FUCKING JUMP UP STAKES BEFORE IM READY!!!
I'm a sod for that and it keeps costing me so now I'm a firm believer of bankroll management!
ive got 30k hands on nl10 that I SHOULDNOT have been playing except the 6k of them, still my point still stands, I was to to $150 started playing nl10 and stupidly eve nl25 once or twice (I was cocky) and it took my bankroll low low low at which point I had to take a month or two break from poker. so no more of that silly crap
ive also learnt to stay away from zoom until I improve my post flop game. I'm the fish on zoom. postflop fish that doesn't know when hes beat on zoom, they are so tight postflop. I like tables were I can really punish the players because I know there player type.
I hope you like the graphs and my run down on nl5. hopefully ill have a good one for nl10 aswel.
thanks guys and gals
