I only won 35.5%, and got ITM exactly 36.5% ... that's not enough either ... I kinda left them for cashgames now I think ...

Thanks again PokerStrategy for the $50 out of nowhere ... I am going to spend it on MTTs ...

These are my bankroll-management rules:

Cashgames:
- Take 5 buyin shot with 30 buyins + 5 buyins next limit
- Step back with 30 buyins for the previous limit

MTTs / Other:
- All non-cashgame earnings can be spend on any MTT or other game.

Right now I have $193, so I can take a look at NL10 soon probably ... I really wonder what it's like up there ...

10K hands milestone

... hopefully the next 10K I will have better results

I'm taking it easy this week with poker

5table nl10 for 2 hours tomorrow

Congrats on winning the $50 hope you make it $5000 soon. I noticed that you don't use chip ev for Spins which is the only relevant metric there if you want to see how you're doing, everything else can be really skewed by variance (not winning $3s, but mostly $2s and stuff like that). As for your NL adventures - SB and BB defense are indeed tricky to play, bc OOP and often times you have to defend with marginal hands, but given the correct pot odds you should be able to improve there IMO. Good luck on NL10, wish you won't have to go down to NL5 again!

yeah let's do that ... 5 tables rush poker ... sure it will go down fast, but at least I can be sure, rather than unsure if I'm going to win!

I had a very good $5nl session, got BR to $210, played some nl$10 at 1 table. Lost a few, but I'm not afraid anymore (for now).

Thanks so much Tony!
I am a spin n go/ tournament noob really when it comes to theory ... I think 2K spin n go's is not much? I have no idea what is a longer term for that game! (Do you?)

I will have to look into this chip-ev-thingy (yes that bad :f_rolleyes:) ... for now:

I had to download the statistic actually ... good news it is above 0? Bad news is that 14 seems like a small number haha.

Thanks again for your post, will have luck at nl$10!

Yeah 14 is not really that good. I'm currently running at about 100 (which is super high to be honest, so I expect to be humbled down sometimes in the future) at the micros at PS. I think the break even point is like 35 or sth. Also 2k is my volume for like 3 months (but I only play like 2-3 hours a day max) so I wouldn't say this is little. Anyways, it seems like you found your groove at the NL tables for the time being, so good luck with that.

Around 35 break-even, allright ...

I forget I played the game that much then, but I played 2 tables I think most of the time :f_eek:.

I think I can get better at that game though, but we'll see, right now more fun in cashgames indeed.

NL$10 doesn't seem that hard at first glance, even softer it seems like ... probably just the players I ran into though.

I only lost because some river-suckouts (that I didn't pay off when they checked into me, happend few times ha!)
