i have already played a lot against players like u , the problem is generaly they dont know when to stop and when they start loosing they just tilt and start to go all in every hand , if you play on pokerstars i would recommend the deep stack tables , there your play style will be realy good to extract most value from regs like you said .

The main thing is that I almost never tilt :) If a lot of bad beats happens and I finally get tilted then I get break for couple of weeks or so (after I flush all my bankroll down the drain of course It's a part of the game) in order to calm down and digest gathered information. In general I don't tilt as I don't jump around laughing and screaming when I get four quads within five minutes playing at three tables. But sorry, Fernando, this thread is not about me :)
I'm glad that you succeed in your bankroll management and I wish you the best just plz sometimes put more aggression into your game ;)

Cheers!

no problem bro , when you loose like 20 bi`ns in a row like i did its when you see that a bankroll management is crucial to keep playing , i think you need at least 100 bi`ns to play but since i have already beaten this limit i think its ok to go a little bit faster but it realy hurts to loose 3 or 4 days in a row .

off poker yesterday i almost got robbed one guy tried to rob me , he caught me from behind and start to ``Hadaka jime`` me and i tried to feel if he had a gun and he handnt so i somehow escaped and started to scream and he ran away . _evil: shit first time this happens to me i realy should have tried to strike him but at this time i had no reaction i wasnt expecting that :f_confused: , anyway at least i didnt lose my cellphone .

ok , big changes i will cashout all my money at planet win 365 and deposit on 888 poker , i will deposit 255$ and get 55 instant bonus and i will need to generate 96$ of rake to cashout so it is more than 50% of rakeback , i will be able to use hud and review my sessions and post some graphs here also , since there are some taxes because my neteller account is in USD and i cashed out euros idk exactly how much i will have but i deposited 20 euros on net bet to get a bonus there also , overall i need to make around 50 euros of rake on ipoker and 96 on 888 till the end of the month , at 888 i will play nl10 but less tables , i think this is a good change for the challenge since i was almost BE at nl5 over 100k+ hands and only winning with rakeback .

ok a little update , now the bank is like this :

888poker : $305.15
netbet : €49.58
betfair : €19.71

i will try to get all the bonuses on ipoker and cashout only the ipoker money and the neteller money to pay my things here and probably all this $305 and everything that i win from this will keep for the challenge , i will try to make the $600 till the end of the month just realy have no idea on how i will do this :f_biggrin:

i think the 600 is not possible anymore :/ , i'm running too bad super below the EV :( , besides that i'm also losing to rivers against donkeys doing stupid things :f_cry: .

only a small amount of hands because i'm not playing for volume here , i can only play a maximum of 6 tables but i'm not even playing that much , if i reach the EV till the end of the month its possible the 600 .

a guy and a woman robbed me today :f_cry: , the took my cellphone , he had a gun i couldnt do anything , pretty hard to deal with this , state is piece of shit , they rob us and we cant do anything about it , if there was no state we would be able to have our own security , every neighborhood could pay like $100 per house and we could have a super secure place to live , we could have a good transport company so we would be able to go out of the bus and go directly to your neighborhood and you would be safe , and this is just something that i just thought , that would be so much better with the improvements , but sadly people are so dumb that they think state is a good thing , fuck the state i want to be free . :f_mad:

hey sorry to hear that, hope you are ok, at least your cell phone can be replaced, especially if you keep crushing at the rate you have been!
two robberies/attempts in the space of a few posts - what part of Brazil do you live in? sounds like a rough place. :deadhappy:

keep going strong, soon you'll be able to move to a nicer area, with your results :f_thumbsup:

sup bros , sorry for not posting i wasnt playing basicaly , i was waiting for some cashouts and i was changing the room , now i'm playing on microgaming , i started yesterday but i almost didnt play because i had some problens with my database so i deleted everything and created a new one today , i was hoping to run well at the beggining because i deposited only 150 euros , and i had the hottest run ever today , i didnt play that well i made a lot of bad calls , i have this big leak of not beeing able to make tons of big folds in a row i realy need to fix this , i dont know how much i have of total bank because i needed to cashout from those 397 to pay my things here so i will not post my total bankroll right now , i will just post the graph from yesterday and today , some of yesterday hands arent here because of the database problem :

as soon as I pay everything here and get all the money from the cashouts i will post the current BR , and for goals this month i will try to play at least 5k hands per day and hopefully have a at least 2bb/100 winrate so next month i will probably start nl25 because i have a 60% rakeback now and on this network the rake is a lot smaller than the others :f_thumbsup: .

i passed through a ruge downswing these days , i fixed something on my game also and right now i'm sure that i can beat without any problem nl10 from here , things are starting to go a little better now i will keep playing the same way if everything goes ok i will be at nl25 next month . this is the graph of the month so far : about the red line i think its the best way to play here , the players in general are very calling station so i think the TAG style is the best right now .
