haha damn, it took so long because i barely touched my computer all month played less then 1000 games this month which is the first time LIFETIME ive played this little.

but won > 50 bis and went from 600$ on april 1 to about 1.800$ now (ive also won some money in mtts i had fpps for and rakeback etc)

so im about to start 30s soon, and again same rules apply i can only move up after ive won at least 50 bis, and have found a new respect for the next buy in level.

&res=landing

good start at 30s at least if we look at the EV Line

running quite brutal tho, almost 20bis below EV at several points in a 100 games sample is ridiculous :)

luckily im still alive and not forced to move back down to 15s just yet :)

Just watched them, learned quite a bit. Did find myself pausing them before you said what action you were about to take just to see if I would do likewise... figured out that I'm probably flatting too wide. So it was a +ev viewing.

And from your other videos I learned that I can't speak dutch! :f_p:

Ok guys, time to update, sorry for spamming my own blogg but since im palying high volume again i also have alot of things to say on a frequent basis, this update will consist of 2 parts.

First i want to talk about my huge downswing as you might see on my sharkscope graph ive had a serious downer already early this month!

here are some quick sharkscope graph reminders (for those just jumping in, to show em how the challenge has been so far yet) :

I started the challenge on april 1 and quickly crushed the 15s, with quickly i mean in a short number of games with a high roi %, however it did take me a month because i was a bum and busy irl and video making mainly plus a secret project im working on :)

I was very excited to at the end of the month start the 30s, this was only a few days ago, with exams nearby for students, i suddenly had a lot of free time on my hands and i decided to grind hard in my newfound free time.

but then my downswing hit

this graph is from the start of the challenge (april 1) till the end of the downswing, 15s included.

You can see at first 30s went very well, up around 200$ at the peak, and then straight down, 2 big losing days in a row.

Here is my HEM EV graph of those 2 big losing days in a row ;

730$ or 23 bi below EV in 200 games, ive had it happen before, but please remember i started the challenge with only 600$ and if you do some math my roll was pretty short at the end of the downswing :)

That must be pretty flustrating. I'm experiencing similar stuff. I'm 1k usd below EV in just 139games this month. That happened however at the 60s so it's a bit less BI wise.

GL turning it around!

Ok was gonna make this post a fair bit longer, but im very tired so ill try and keep it short !

after the downswing i re-examined my game hardcore, but not only my game, i also examined the average player pool tendencies, and started talking to some friends of mine who grind the 30/60s full time and i made some interesting discoveries and started adjusting my game accordingly

Ive made a lot of minor adjustments to my game which i believe are major improvements.

since then ive single tabled 210 games, which to me feels like one big session (my latest session/the session after the downer i talked about in the last blogg post)
its actually 2 days, but i accidentally passed out (slept) for like 4-5 hours in between, so it feels like its a big session with a small nap in between :P hence im posting it in one graph :)

So this is all post minor adjustments and last session pretty much, looks pretty promising.

but will need a bunch of more games before i can actually say if my game has "improved"

I dont like saying improved, because im just playing a completely different playstyle, not necessairly a better one, just one better suited towards the games im playing nowadays.
