16BI's down for the last 7k hands

decided to play some NL50 SPEED while coming home drunk yesterday
- with 5.5 BI... BR management at its finest

luckily for me, i won 2.5BI's in 1000 hands ♦
was up 4BI's at one point bu then i ran AKs into villain's AA

im not sure if im in position to judge NL50 players, but hell..... i marked 1/70 players with a "good reg" color...
i thought NL50 is like reg-infested, very solid aggro game.... well, not at all

they all were either complete fish, some ultra-nitty 6-tablers,
or fit-fold kind of guys....

Naughty zumpar; funny, but naughty!

thanks dude

Wasnt updating a lot, cuz i had a very busy drunken week. Me my GF and a couple of friends went skiing so that was pretty fun,
up until the last day when i broke my thumb kicking some stuff drunk

poker-wise, December wasnt very good, i still have not bought PT4, and i put in a very low volume so
pretty much none of my goals were archieved

Last month's goals:

[-] At least 40K hands (17k total)
[+] Keep at least 5bb/100 winrate (around 7.5)
[+] Stop tilting and spazzing when someone makes a weird line (somehow managed to :))
[-] Get to Camp V on Everest VIP (still camp IV)
[-] go work out at least 2 times/week (not once ;()
[+] watch 3+ coachings (4 or 5)
[+] watch 3+ videos (watched 3)
[-] analyze at least 100 hands (20 tops)

Hands played: 17 000
Everest VIP status: Camp IV
PS status achieved: Gold

Starting bankroll: $10
Current bankroll: $408.77

this months's profit:
Winnings: $126.15
RB: $22.50
____________
Total: $148.65

next month i really need to play more, so:

Goals for next month:

[ ] At least 60k hands
[ ] Get platinum here on PS
[ ] Camp V on Everest
[ ] Start taking shots on NL20
[ ] Buy PT4
[ ] 3+ coachings, 3+ videos
[ ] Not screw up my exams

pretty slow day today, played about 1000 hands CG, breakeven
and one $10 HU deep SNG for fun. won the SNG so at least something

opponent was pretty tough, it was there and back for a long time, until we both had about 35bb. then we got it in on the flop

3♠6♠T♥

i cbet, he c/r, i 3b shoved, he called,
showed K♣T♣ vs my T♠8♠

pretty much flipping

but luckily a hit on the turn and it was over

___________________________________________________________

AAAAAAAAAND. .... just found out i cant withdraw money from Everest cuz when i registered, i put in a fake name for
whatever "security" purposes ... didnt trust poker sites back then..

gonna write an email to support and explain the whole thing and just hope they dont take my BR away

___________________________________________________________

btw i did some analyses cause i wanted to change rooms, and got some surprising results, i think im gonna go for William Hill,
with the combined bonuses of the site and PS promotions it seems they have the best rake after rakeback deal available
for what i am playing + u get 5 SP's per $1 rake

and i figured out to get away from Everest ASAP - worst rake and rakeback ever

just fyi if ur curious:

just % rakeback on some sites:

total rake after rakeback playing 60k/month on average:

total rake after rakeback playing 100k/month on average:

total rake after rakeback playing 140k/month on average:

* percentage of rake payed for on each platform on each limit compared to the platform with the best deal for the given limit

just sent an email to Everest support, hoping for the best

It's just a suggestion but wouldn't a (virtual) face to face talk be better in serious circumstances? I would go to live chat but I don't know how appropriate that would be in your case obviously, or how helpful they are there.

Good luck with it anyway,

Mal.

Is there any rakeback offer at Everest guys?

yup, there is a rakeback ofc

but their rake is so high and rakeback so freakin small, its not EV+ to play there

f.example i play NL10, NL20 and the rakeback is something like 12% .... and the initial rake is pretty big

WOOOOOOOOOOT

Excellent news Michal!

#HonestyIsTheBestPolicy

Hand 2 I think you need some stats there. You can triple barrell if the guy isn't a station type else I'll just check turn to get a free river and try and hit my hand. Whatever he called flop with he's calling that turn with too.

So, finally after a month i decided to buy PT4 (small stakes version obv)

- took me 3 hrs to set it up and import hands so freakin slow

here is the overall graph:
