You can use any of them. PT4 you need to request hand histories from CoinPoker support or pay for a third party addon that grabs the hands and converts them. The HUD in PT4 doesn't seem to work yet on CoinPoker.

GOOD MORNING 2+2 COMMUNITY

It's Monday, time for another update.

Let's start with the graph :

Im happy with the red line improvement - goal is to get that redline to at least breakeven. Loosing a bit on the red line, not too shabby. Compared to the first graph i posted, the red line improved by a lot.

Still running 10 buyins under EV but hey, thats poker.

Winning at 9bb/100 (14evBB/100)

Realistically im probably winning somewhat around 7-10bb/100 in those games.

Planning to take a shot at NL50 this week, Not sure if Coinpoker is the best Option for NL50 tbh. I play a lot of morning sessions and at this time all the NL100/NL200 regs are taking NL50 into their session aswell to have enough tables. Might move my Sessions to evening/night to have higher EV.

Goals for this week :

- play 15k hands (need to put in some more volume)

Thatas actually the only goal i have for this week 😃

Lets share one funny hand
This guy was jamming 4-5 hands in a row, so i figured he's tilted and just jamming any 2, so calling A8s is gonna make me some money.. yeah in EV at least 😃

Thanks for reading, see you on monday !...

Hello guys, it's Monday so its time for another update.

As i mentioned last monday, i was going to withdraw another 300€ to pay one more bill, which i did.
This week my goal was to play 15k hands which i didnt achieve. Mainly because i was only 4-6 tabling and focusing on playing good poker rather than putting in a lot of volume on autopilot.

So i played around 6k hands in iPoker. Unfortunately the graph is not really correct, since Pokertracker doesnt track the hands right, when opponent takes a Cashout. What happens is, that Pokertracker shows the Hand lost, even if i won the hand. Its a known issue that Pokertracker Support already knows about for months.

So i deposited 900€ on iPoker and withdrew 1350 couple of days ago. A total profit after rakeback of 450€.

I withdrew my balance from iPoker mainly for one reason. The tables are anonymous until you sit down, so getting good tables is kinda hard since i think a lot of regs are using Seating scripts. I contacted MagicSeat to get a bit more info about how their seating script works on iPoker and if iPoker could detect it, here is their answer : It is technically impossible to trace the use of the script, as it masquerades as other programs on the PC + fully imitates manual selections. Ipoker is the most loyal room and he does not pay attention at all, for all the time we have been working no one has received warnings or bans

I cant really afford to take the risk and use a seating script myself - if they somehow can detect it and ban me and confiscate my roll that would be a huge downfall right now.
Also, if a site doesnt allow seating scripts i don't want to be that guy who still does it just because they cant detect it. That beeing said, i withdrew my balance to play on a site where i can table select a bit better without using a lot of my time finding good tables.

Back to Coinpoker. I deposited some money on Coinpoker and started grinding NL25 again. Going to play NL25 for a bit before i move up to NL50 there.

For Coinpoker i am using DriveHud 2 because its much easier to setup than Pokertracker 4.

Coinpoker graph for this week :

Im up $74 ($250 in EV) in 5400 hands. Running 7 stacks under EV. Nothing new, we getting used to it 😃

Made a total of around 500€ this week, withdrew 300 to pay a bill and bankroll increased by around 200€.

Not bad for playing mainly NL25.

Goals for next week :
- play 10k hands on 5 days.
- study 2 days
- workout every day atleast 30 min and go for a 15-30 min walk every day before starting the grind.

I think my main problem right now is that I get into the grind way too early after waking up. Most of the time when i start my session, the first 30-60 minutes i am almost always down. Stacks flying around, stupid plays and tilting sometimes.

Going for a 15-30 minute walk before i start my grind will probably help with that.

Thanks for reading everyone. See you next monday!...
