Keeping the MTT Dream alive [HU Hypers]

Games: 333
1K pace:330

Nothing special really.positive night again +4.4BI +1.5BI from RB

Stilll on a hunt to catch the EV line ♦

August so far

This is how the overall situation with RB looks like in SS

12BI under EV...exefuckinglent--goddamn tourists
AKs<J9o
ATs<K9o
KK<87s

and the ones on theright are what i got called with a same sized big or medium stack when pushing AI

Games:401
1k Pace:396

Tried sisxtabling today and I think I am getting more comfortable on doing that. Also it seems I folda lot more speculative hands in the first 2 levels this way which is great.

Still running 12BI under EV so no lucky breaks for me but at least the good hands held.

Obv got suckedout few times and sucked out someone few times too but the EV adjusted stays on the 12BI DS

Here is and interesting flip...seems rather crazy. His bubble stast are rather tight so Idecide to push. I do rank my hand as ok topush with DoN nash bvb so shove it in his face..

Final Board: 4 4 5 8 K
Hero mucked 5 8 and won 1,460 (740 net)
BB showed A 6 and lost (-720 net)

92.8%)) that's any two.
but don't you think it should take into account opp ranges?

on BvB situation its like HU really I can play prettymuch in a vacuum then especially when my shove can cut him off the money he really us the one who makes the mistake on calling or not. Thus showing with my ATC range in a vacuum i have played correctly and leave any mistake making to the BB. Thats the beauty of it all. He does call in a vacuum correctly but i aö the luckyone catching my outs.

If we look at his stasts. 500+ hands on the bubble (using that filtered hud) with him (biggest samplesize on bubble i have from some players are between 1.2-1.8k hands) but big enough samplesize for me to say this guy plays the bubble way too tight 20/12 so he plays a very tigh calling range and i can easily push my ATC at him. Ofcourse he can have the nuts but if he cals less than 10% here its EV+ to shove ATC here.

Both players played correctly I was lucky thistime. i had a hand that flops better overall has ability to catcg a straight vs his flush was it every 11 times you flop a draw for suited cards so calling less than 10% how many of those times suited..man won't go into calcing that. All he had was overcard with flushdraw. A is such overplayed card in these games. Even some of the regs call push otf with Axxr board with A2-A8 type of hands vs my AT+ just because they hit TP.

I have to dig out some wtf hands here for some shits and giggles too. Gotta have some funzies too instead all srsbz reporting.

It been a long time that i didn't post in this blog (i'm on vacation) and didn't played much poker. It seems that your doing well in your 1K pace

Thanks. That and whoring RB are pretty much the only things going well this month. Running 12bi under EV kinda sucks but atleast its not due bad play but bad luck and it will get corrected eventually. And it could be worse, so no whining ♦

Kept on 6 tabling. Good call really..seems to keep me away from the speculative hands with great implied odds..meh just loosing money on those.

Finally looking to catch up on the EV line...still 7 BI under this month and 11 overall. But looking good again.

August

All games in BI

All games SS

Best WTF moment ♠_o:
(I didn't uploaded the hand)
BvB war
I'm SB w/ 700 stack and BB w/ 680
action folded to me and push Q9
BB call

Guess what BB has ?

LOL
Yea I dunno whats up with these players or what but A always gets a massive rep on the games. Like that last moron calling with A5 on a KK3 board..dunno what he thinks I am bluffing here with my shove..or is he like hey a gutshot straightdraw and flushdraw..really amazing. But those are the best customers. Am happy with them sitting my tables ♦ Doubling up securely earl on on these SSSTSH dons is quite good really makes it easier for you to bully the table and secure atleast bubble for you as it is its most likely someone will bustout without you having to do anything. Then on to bullying the bubble. Works rather well. As it is it seems I will be looking to hop into $5.5s next month or even earlier its again new games there. I am afraid not as many retards dwell there as in $2.2s but with RB should be beatable unless I run into a massive DS right off the bat ♦

Am also planning on giving the turbos a try as the rake on those drop to 10% at $5 level. MIght give me more edge as long as the volume is there. Could play like 8 tables at a time too or even 9 if the traffic allows as the turbos have a longer timebank on playing your hand which is at the only reason I have been playing 4 tables except now 6 as I am getting used to it.

Tonight is the last day of week2 and Will be writing a recap on it after I finish up on the tables. Being up almost 50BI now with RB gives me good vibes for the rest of the month as 12BI DS has been the biggest DS so far. I pretty much cannot fcuk up so bad I would drop 50 on the remaining 600 games or so. Tomorrow I will be at a halfway mark of 500 games which was also the minimum requirements for the month so am glad I have been motivated enough to keep on grinding.

It takes 30 days to turn anything into a habit so on with the show and the grind becomes easy. I might be trying for 1.2k games per month starting from September. If I would be able to play 1.2k games of $5.5s without having to drop down I would be looking at $330 in RB for October. Even with BE results that would put me into $11 games for October..but well gotta finish up this month first.

I guess DoNs are greatly getting some dissing from all online poker ♦

I try to find anything "2013" about DoN games etc. NOTHING!

I know that Royal hope has DoN coaching today but its waaaaay too early for me to sit down on computer and watch it..as it is with twitch gone no chance of wathcing them later on either. I wonder if he could make few videos..there are atleast 5 DoN players in here I know ♦

Or maybe after I crush the games some more will be hired as another DoN coach for PS ♦

Being own'd by playtech now its kinda silly there havent been any demands on getting in more materiel whats going on in iPoker..DoNs and HUSNG are the only SNG formats you can get some action and traffic worth speaking about.

Well g2g do some Bday shopping for my daughters Bday. She'll be 4 next weekend and gotta get some stuff for her. Its amazing how jealous my 6yr old is about the party. Gladly my 1yr old son don't really give a hoot ♦

Well evening its time to go and play some more again. Will continue 6 tabling as it immensely shortens my session for the needed volume. And so far has been profitable due avoiding any spewings on the early 2 levels. Just bee crusing with ABC poker and playing nash correctly.

was able to see some of Royal Hope's coaching today. Quite basic stuff but caught some pointers about avoiding too much agression on fish when bigstack. As they randomly click on the call button it might be costly to let them suckout on you. Will try avoid that and see how that goes.

Games: 232/231
Run: About EV
Rake payed: $46,4
Profit: $30
ROI: 6%
ITM: 57,7%
ABI: $2,2
RB: $25.52
Total ROI: 11%
Total Profit: $55,52
August Profit with RB: $92,83
Project Profit with RB: $107
BR with RB: $174

Steady growth the last 7 days. When comparing whole project/August/last 7 days ITM% results are 57,3%/57,2%/57,7%. So atleast I know I am not on any massive heaters or anything. Steadily pushing onwards and upwards..and well how can one be on a heater when 15BI under on the whole project ♦

Counting in all my rolls from seperate sites I would have 80BI for $5.5s but I am determined to get the 1k $2.2s done. Why because 1K games at certain level on DoNs does give me at least little worthy of a samplesize to look at and analyze. I know 3k would be more accurate or 10k but am not looking to stick around on the micros untill i get a worthy for pros thinking samplesize. I can always move down incase I hit the wall at $5.5s.

The psychology team in here talk about the 30day to become a habit rule. Well I started playing the DoNs at $1.1 limit on July 21. Now its August 15. I am in 26days in a row to put in volume for these games and I do feel comfortable already especially since I started 6 tabling these and getting in the volume even faster. I am very comfortable to put my games/day limit up for september.

Like I wrote few posts back am gonna aim for 40-50 games/day as this will mean only about 20minutes longer session. And that is nothing really. It doesn't feel like a grind at all anymore so that is very good. That would put my monthly games to 1.2-1.5k a month which is good imo for a person who is married, with 3 children and a fulltime job. It would make quite a difference to my Rb too on the $5.5s with 1k games $275->1.2k games $330->and with 1.5k games $412 rb a month. So even with BE gameplay I would be rolled for $11s on october. And with kinda playing overrolled already I would still be easily dropping limits incase I would hit a wall on the $5.5s As it is I wanna do this thing properly as it is a buildup for 2014 I am making sure not to rush anything. All this speculation goes down the drain in case doomswitch is pushed or something. I could even just grind the $2.2s like an animal if need be. But also am not gonna be "regging" my self into these smallest micros really as that is just wasting money.

On to week 3 on which I will be going pass the 500games mark which was set as the minimum requirements and is the halfway mark for my 1K grind. In case I get to hit the tables early on today I will be looking to test how the 40-50 games a day feel like. And if its all good most likely will do that for the rest of the month.

To the giraffes and threadsaver

8-14.8

August

All BI

All with RB

Threadsaver: nice hat

495 was the goal but since yesterday was 15th so decided to go for 500. Today am maybe pushing for 40 or even 50 games. Picking up the pace as 6 tabling now is turning into very comfy now..maybe I can run the 1K games up to 1.1 or even 1.2k for the month or maybe take a day off the tables just to analyze all games with HRC when I hit 1k games.

Last night was 3BI posivitive. First lost 5BI but dug up from the hole again. And the graph is back on 3fig winning on this project. Overall I am quite happy how this has turned out to be. Being already up 20BI (50BI+ with RB) this month I am very doubtful I could go on such a downswing on these with the quality of the villains. If I think about the EV line am now again back to 12BI under EV on august So I would be up 32BI had there be less fishy calls from the fish ♦

Looking at the fact that I was rather nOOb to the whole concept of DoN gaming. I just though using my HUSNG skills and some of my skills from SNGs. But soon learned that looking at hands in a vacuum and using nash on all decisions would be rather good way to go as the field is huge and there are so many randoms. I know all the regs by now. 15 days on the tables and I have those guys pretty well mapped on the stats department. 20% of them are winners reast are loosing regs but atleast they play somewhat sensible game.

Well tonight I happily go on and start crushing more as I have reached the minimum goals for the month there is no pressure anymore. I would not mind going up another 50BI with RB for the rest of the month. Well putting in 500 more games means 23BI up with RB anyways but I am really looking to catch that EV line. Though looking at belthazorrr and his runbad for ever graph I am mentally prepping myself on getting even worse run and for a looooong time. Its now only 350 games long..

And for those who like to follow graphs

August

All

Thanks for reading.

Games: 529/528

Just quick update

Was able to catch up on EV a tad. Games were good tables were full of idiots. Most of the regs still eventually have lives to live during weekends ♦

Games: 561/561

1BI up..for some reason last five games totally blank shit holecards for me...well on with the show tomorrow.

Kinda bummed about that last 5 games running like shit. Had i won 2 of those i would have had a chance to make it to SS leaderboard for $2 and under category for top winnings avg in 100 games. Now its impossible even if i win the last 4 games required. Still looking good for the avg winnings in 500 as at around game 500 the BE stretch ended and started running more in EV and catching on the bad run a tad. I think it would be batshit crazy to make th SSLB for the gametype during the "first" real try to go big on SNGs. If there wold by leaderboard for certain stake leve for certain network I think i would have made it but thats nit the point. Just glad how well these games have started for me. Topshark wcor isn't the greatest for me but I think it will be getting better than it is atm ♦

All in all am happy how things are going for these games. With RB my BR is now $221 but am still not going to hop into $5.5s yet. i think with discipline I will play the 1k $2.2s see if I make the SSLB for avg top avg winning on 500 games and then start mixing in $5.5s at $300 am gonna hop into the $5.5s only and give it a rough 20bi shot moving back to $2.2s at $200 with RB. I have my doubts that would be needed though. Am actually going to be more comfy moving to $5s fully at $300 du to me 6tablin and therefor having 10% of my roll on the tables everytime untill I run it up from there.

The 33-4 games / night is now a piece of cake and am actually "crawing" to hit the tables every night. Putting in few more games per night to get it to 40/night will be ez.

TY for reading! Almost 1k clicks on the thread so after my clicks atleast 500 ♦

Onwards and upwards!

One can not run better then 12bi below EV in these ♦

Overall traffic sucked bigtime was hard to get even 6 tables to run at the same time. Villains were terrible but they also did terrible things to my EV...just as I was catching it am back down 12BI..Almost BE session if you look at the EV lin..green line says differnt things ♦

8BI down and then got bored at the suckouts and terribad traffic.

Played some NL10 speedpoker just to refresh myself from the badrun.

Thanks god I was able to run well. on that an the BR ended up $4 above from starting fo the session. Created even more rake than on a usual night so will corralate even more. Still determined to get the 1k games so I have to push it tonight for bigger volume. Only got in like 20games last night. Shold get games up to 627+ tonight in order to catch up.

All the dreams of hitting SS leaderboard are now trashed but thats only for shits and giggles. BR after RB is now sitting at $220 or so. and am still looking at somewhere near $40-$50 RB coming in after completing the 1K+ games so no worries. Looking very good.

AFter yesterdays shorter session played catchup and went on for 43 games. And I mean wtf is up with these games now 18BI under EV..thats $36 lost to idiots calling with random shit vs my EV+ shoves..well atleast it tells me I am playing well...but seriously LMAO.. ♦

Looked at the "low stakes" lobby and it is pretty much confirmed that after $2.2 most of the games played are turbos. While 3 games of turbos filled there was 0 registrations to super shorstacks games...so that solves it pretty much..am hopping to the turbo games on the next level.

Well at least my blue line keeps fighting back..so all is well really ♦

Also 1k+ clicks on this thread! Thanks for reading and commenting!!

Tonights session

Games:659/660

My PPS never held and fish PPs did hold vs my premiums. All in all rather stupid session..but tomorrow we push onwards

Running like shit almost thru the entire session

Now 20BI under EV
