Thx guys for stoppin by! ;)

Ok it is few days am able to fully grind 9mans. I can make about 150 games a day, so I ll make 6,5k VPPs.

I was super surprised how games changed. In terms of regfestness. Lot of normal turbos regs moved to KOs and made KOs more reg-infested in peak hours So in some hours u cna play very soft normal turbo 9mans, in some hours it s better to play KOs...
We can debate that it is also because of holidays, fishes are on vacations...but fishes also have time to paly if they r out of job...who knows. I saw games with 7+ winning regs, lol.
Good thing is, that u r still able to table select, thankfully, lot of regs are just "stupid" and registerin in tables full of regs.
ROI should go down coz of average tougher and tigher field, but so far my ROI is fine like it was before Vegas...will see.

I have again a bit different aproach to some situations. Playin live with enormous fishes teached me even more how to juice value. I concentrate more on ingame selection and definitely more on HUs with fishes. Am also tryin to r/f r/c as best I can...

OK, GL!

Hey!

In July my goal was to grin 6,5k VPPs just to maintain SN status. I grinded only less thn 10 days, one day I made 273 sngs, I was playin 20+ tables, mixin 9man turbos, 9man KO turbos and fifty fifties. Had to mix a lot, even chasin rake am not willin to play games with 5+ regs, no thank you. But still I could find nice games at KOs, definitely not goin to play regular turbos, but instead of 18mans I was tryin last months I ll add fifties for rake chasin - super easy format, kinda funny, can play 25+ tables and so on. August will be the same, only few days free to grind, rest is holidays with my girls...

OK, July:

I am happy with results, runnin bad at 15s 9mans, runnin hot at 30s KOs and fifty fifties.
Hourly with RB around 35$/hour.

:heart: :heart: :heart: FULLTILT MONEYYYYYYYYYYYYYZZZZZZZZZZ :heart: :heart: :heart:
Am so happy it is happening, already got message from PS to Supernovas VIPs confirming all the info...one time :) Gonna be nice to have my roll back. Also lookin forward to swappin FPPs and possibly playin here again, will see.

OK, am gonna take this day for movie or so, thn few days grind, holidays and few days grind, GL!

Hello guys,

another very quick month. Played only 10 days, rest was with my family, so in this I am very happy.
Lots changed, majority of my games are fifty50. Thing is - better traffic, interesting new format, easy for multitabling, lot of money in them, higher stakes runnin and so on...vs KOs were I have to table select a lot and not sufficient amount of games were runnin...
So, good month, had semiruns at freerolls - 400$ in 1M, 45$ in 100k, runner up in BoP 1st round shootout :/ Also played few FPP satellites, juiced my rakeback.

Results are:

With RB my hourly: 54$

For next month am gonna change few things.
I will give a shot in more aggresive bankroll management, will play fifty50s 15-30-60 stakes, dependin on current roll + 9mans 30s+ +18mans 30s+, all turbos, based on my roll. I will decide exactly how aggressive and so on. I wanna try to play as near to 120hours. And I wanna try to add few tables and near 25 tabling as much as I can.
This is the way to make about 155k VPPs in 4 months, hopefully sooner, try if I can play 25 tables and 120h a month. If I ll be at least BE and will make some roll, am gonna hit SNE next year. If my roll will get some wounds, I ll get staker. If I ll find am not able to play 120 hours or 25 tabling or sometin else, I ll have to reconsider...
Nearest few days I want to study a bit...

OK, GL guys!

Tim64 thx, means a lot from u!

OK, yesterday...
So am playin these 30$ 9mans, my m8 herekpl joined for a while, am sayin how I love these, lot of fishes, nice spots, runnin horribly, but w/e...and thn he s sayin DUUUDDEEEE U R IN THE 300$ GAME!!!! FFS...made my day...TableNinja somehow despite all filters, maximum buyin set to 30$ and so on, somehow registered me in 300$ 9man and it actually filled up and ran...busted with better hand and ended my first day of "more aggressive bankroll management style" with like -600 under EV at 9mans.
Felt very bad, only because of that 300 game. I know it wasnt my fault, all filters set, doublechecked, no 300 are showin at the lobby ever...so some buggy thing...but still it is my fault and feels bad...
Anyways, it was big loosin days after long long time, so it is also wakeup call. Felt bad at night, woke up at the mornin and am like horny to play, thinkin how many games i ll be able to play tonight...thats great feelin. I wanna recover quickly and "downer" gives me motivation...

GL!

Hello guys, today I have more IT/hardware question for those of u masstabling on Pokerstars, using TableNinja and Holdem Manager.

Recently I tend to play more thn 20 tables and I sometimes have feeling it is not that smooth, little lags here and there. I think my PC is solid, so I am mre inclined to think it is about optimization of TN, HEM, Stars...
I mean, when i have 15 tables, everytin super smooth, with 20+ I can tell the difference.

If anyone is masstabling and usin softwares, can u tell me your hardware and how s it runnin?

TY!!!

Or you could play just 2 tables @ the $300s. Your PC won't lag, your hourly investment will be the same and you'll have plenty of time for your decisions.

Hi, what i did, was buying instant (don't know if it's called that otherwise) internet for my lappy.

It's from my cell phone provider. You just get sim card or modem or whatever and you put it in your lap-top. I took the smallest option that's available for 11€ per month.

That way i have internet not only when electricity is out but even if something happens to my internet on my PC. (you just have to worry that your battery in lap-top is at least half full).

I hope I made sense.

btw,

nice, interesting blog!

Internet connection isnt the problem, I have one main plus two backups ;)
Laptop I also have, I was just wondering, if anyone is using also backup power source that can hold 30mins-1hour...it might be much easiest and very cool way for dealin with blackouts. Ofc I know that internet will be down coz all the switches or routers or w/e in the house will be down, I ll use mobile phone or sim card internet via USB, but it would be nice not to have to go for laptop...

Hey guys.

Interesting month is over for me. I had few basic goals...

Aggressive bankroll management, moving up - after the pretty bad start I dropped to only 16$ ABI, playin fifty50. Took me some time but I managed to build it and was climbing up. I was thn playing 30s fifty50 and 30s 9mans. Slowly I was adding 60s fifty50, hit 100k FPPs, bought bonus and had roll for only 60s. There s not enough traffic at fifty50s, so I add 60s 9mans and 60s 18mans. Unfortunately had to cashout coz I needed to build new PC, but my roll is still fine for 60s. I consider this as a very big success for me.

120 hours - failed, played 85 hours. But I was sick, I had computer problems, I studied a lot, so am not unhappy, but will have to work on that.

25tabling - I am close, if I were playing only fifty50 = no problem. But mixing fifty50, 9mans and 18mans is a bit harder, so I am 23tabling or so, depends on current traffic. But I ll be there soon.

OK, here is the graph.

With RB my hourly is about 54$.

I must say it is fun to move up but also it is pretty soul crushing (using roy4lpl4yors blog name). I mean I have to get use to swings in thousands $. But i keep in my mind, that being BE at 60s+ is niiice profit. Just move up a little bit more and SNE is very possible next year.

For the next month I want to play 120 hours, 23-25tabling, applying same bankroll management. Being BE is fine prerakeback. Keep on studying 18m, fifty50s, work on mindset (talkin about swings), count in buyins, not $. Be positive, it s about greater goal :)

OK and for the PC issues. Firstly I bought SSD (Samsung 830, should be the best). It worked a bit. So I built brand new PC, i5-3570k, 8GB RAM, did a lot of work about keepin it cold and silent, so I invested in solid PSU, few chase fans, huuuuge CPU fan and nice Bitfenix Shonobi case. All in all, it is awesome. Wasnt too expensive, it s perfectly silent, still werent over 37 celsiums CPU and 25 celsiums MB Fans spinnin at 800rpm max, awesome. Love the new Intel stuff, with ASUS MB it overclocks itself, it s very power efficient, silent...can only recommend.

GL folks!

i think is winnings+rakeback(the blue line)/the number of hours played.
