The Dream Is Still Alive

Good luck with your challenge and hopefully you control your tilt now.
If not you can always check the psychology articles and videos .

Hei guys and ladies,

Today was so long day but very productive! I play a little poker too, but really small sample. I think i lost 2 buy-ins KK vs AA, top 2 pair vs set...but i get 10$ reward so the bankroll is almost the same.

Today i did it starting ranges in equilab and coldcall vs any position. And then i decide to make starting charts and all actions (calling range, 3bet, 3bet/fold, vs 3bet call, 4bet...) in word and it looks pretty good! here is photo:

this two photos is just for playing from utg

So tomorrow i have to print those charts and start playing!

This is first what i'm going to do and secondly buy gold status here and watch and learn weazels series!

I think it will be very nice blog. It's not much for now, but I imagine what it will be. Keep up. Nice. Following

hei,

@SDK1987 - thanks and i will do my best to control my tilt :).

@ 4s4s4s - i will do my best to be a nice blog and thank you for following!

I'm currently playing 5nl and i think my BRM should be something like this:

NL5 start with 100$, move down at 60$
NL10 start with 300$, move down at 200$
NL25 start with 800$, move downt at 550$

That's all for now. Later i will post some hands probably.

Hei. Last week i played very bad. I played 4 zoom tables and my decisions were very poor and i'm just clicking and no thinking. So i decide to play 2 zoom tables because i'm much more concentrate and take better decisions. And i start making notes on opponents so i hope it Will be better this week.
I have to start studying poker otherwise i Will never improve my game!

have fun

nl5 zoom is fun but you must be ready for the swings, some days can be brutal when they just hit everything they need to!

Smile and know you'll own them all in the end!

Good luck,

Mal.

Hello everyone!

Like u can see my blog is not the best or nice. In fact i think it's the worst blog here! So i Will try to improve that and to be more interesting for everyone.

Update:
1. I move from zoom game to regular tabels!

Why? I don't know. Yes i know. Because i can't beat that game!!!! Simple is that.

I have small sample (8.974 hands).

I play zoom last 2 years. A lot of hands on microstakes. I realized that it's just not good for me. Very swingy, the game is too fast for me. I'm just clicking button fast fold and i'm like a robot. I stop thinking and don't even know what i'm clicking and why!

So i start to play regular tabels and it looks a lot easier, really.I play just 4 tabels but i am a lot more focused on the tabel! I don't know why i always thought that it's important to play a lot of hands. Now i play a lot less hands but profitable and I play slowly and calm (no tilting) - I ENJOY IN PLAYING POKER NOW. I try to table select good with bad players on tabels! U see opponent every hand how he reacts and it's easier to make a plan how to play against them.

2. The fact is that i'm still a fish, but really want to do something to be better. And i realy think i have done the first step to be better!

My weaknesses:
- not focus enough (surfing on internet, looking pokerstrategy forum while i'm playing...)
- not study enough ( i mark a lot of hands now but i don't do a session reviews)
- take better notes ( please if someone have some examples i would be very happy if you post here)
i think if i write the whole action is just too much.
- emotions

Ok plans for tomorrow:
1. Post hands
2. Play some poker
3. Study 10 old hands
4. Analyse 2 hand with Equilab
5. Fitness

In game:
1. Focus
2. Take time on decisions
3. Analyse villain and adjust
4. Take usefull notes
5. Table select

GL!

Now i have some stats on him but when i play this hand he was unknown!

Ok. Here i could 3bet preflop but like i said here villians were unknown so i decide to call preflop. Flop easy call (pot odds = 22%; equity 9out for flush + 3 outs for 8 (straight) 12x4 = 48%)
Turn i hit flush and go for X/R but he Xb. River he wait for 30 - 40 secunds and R-AI!

He kokicar,

how are you doing? Thank you for being in our Bankroll challenge!
We are trying to give a weekly or at least bi-weekly update of everyones challenge. Just to make sure we include you - don't forget to post your update in our https://forums.pokerstrategy.com/forum/thread.php?threadid=326222&goto=firstnew thread, it's due every Monday!

I find it very nice that you also think about your blog from an outsider's perspective. My concrete advice as you did in the hand before: do not post "my 5 interesting hands" but concentrate on one, bring in some funny pics demonstrating your thoughts. Graphs & stat discussions are also well liked - oh,and of course participating in the BR-challenge :-)
