This time around its no joke. Bankroll builders!

Remember 3 days ago when i wrote its unrealistic to make 500$ by the end of october 😃

I think strategywise for me its also about not thinking about the money as money..

Its chips in a game and i use it to win more chips and become better in a game were the purpose is to have as many chips as possible..

In 25NL were bets get upto 10$ i ser alot of scared money.. they dont go for the big valuebet otr because what if i loose 12$ if villain hit the draw..

Over the last 3 days ive been exploiting the hell out of scared money with big bets and big bluffs and it works a really amazing amount of the time.

Selective aggression against weak opponents.. Wow what a key to unlock..

Also i realize im running hotter then fire and I will be cooled down. Thats how the system works..

But for now im glowing in the glory of finishing my challenge in 3 days rather then 35 days..

If im not too beat up after work and focused tonight im gonna fire 2 tables of 50NL and take a shot at it. Just to feel it out and see how it plays..

Also looking to find a solid mtt to play. Have yet to cashed one at GG.

One of the first experiences I had after moving from 10nl to 25nl was feeling very, very frustrated because they never ever paid off my value, leading to the first realization, a ha moment: The only answer that makes sense here is that I have to bluff the **** out of these nits. The second was trying to find a way to do it without spewing and becoming a maniacal whale. And, the third was learning from very smart, successful players that if we don't feel like we're spewing a bit, we are probably not bluffing even GTO (which means we are far from actually exploiting the nits 😃 ).

All of this is still a work in progress though, but it has been a fun journey.

Cheers!

Took a shot a 50NL yesterday and played a mtt. Total results went down for 20$.

I think i can handle 50NL but im not gonna go until properly rolled.

As it stands roll is at 930$ and im already regged for a wsop online event tonight.

I started a new challenge were im gonna go +1k before last of oktober.

For now im gonna stick to 25NL and just grind it out.

I feel like theres is leaks in my game i need to adress and also like lifeleaks that affect my game.

After cashing a mtt and running decent in the cashgames roll is now at
1163$.

Have not been playing that much theese last couple of days due to anxiety and personal stuff but have put in hours in videos and gto wizard.

Also been trying to up my aggression more. My redline would probably be decent now if i owned a tracking software license.

It came to my mind today that i dont think ive had a loosing day in the whole run through 25NL.
Ofcourse im running really amazing. But i really feel like my game has clicked for Micros.

Im very agressive, i find spots for taking nonstandard lines for max value, im figuring villans ranges out.

I fired up 4 tables of 50NL today. Right now decently in the green but still alof of hours left in the daily grind.

2 buyins in the green at 50NL.
Might cool down for the rest of the Day and play some 25 but ill feel it out after dinner with my kid.

Trying to get to platinum octopus but its gonna be a while. Hitting gold crab in 509 points ans so far the wheel has been a shitshow.

Ive been out on a walk and thought hard about poker and my personality and my recent fastpaced climb up the stakes.

Its always been a trait of my low selfesteemed personality to kindof selfimplode when im happy and doing good.
Either in life like relationships or in right now. Poker..

Its like im not worth it and i have to destroy it or make it harder..

Im gonna set up a set of rules for poker and follow them no matter what.

Bankroll stands @ 750$ after the madness and im somewhat happy i managed to keep atleast that.

NEVERAGAIN.

So i havent been updating here in a bit since the lsst drunken slots night..

Basicly since then ive been playing alot and splashing around but not really finding any rythm or real fun in the game..

Yesterday i was gonna observe the 500NL games on GG. And one of the tables i looked at seemed so off, i closed the other ones and after 50 hands 4 players had vpips over 63%

I decided, im sober, im focused, i got this! So i waited and sat down. 500$.

With theese guys most of the hands were over 200$ preflop.

I nitted up and basicly setmined 77+ and played AA KK QQ and KQs+

First real hands i was down to 412$

im on the Button with 99. HJ makes it 12 and CO pops to 44, i call, HJ folds.

Flop Ac 9h 3c. CO bets 80$.

I just shove, some foldequity maybe but i have the best hand like all the time against stats - 68 43 33.

Villain calls jam with 4d 3d and i scoop.

Down to 814$ and this happens.

Im on BB with JTo.

Btn makes it 11 and i call.

Flop is pure gin 7s 9h 8c.

Villain bets 15 and i make it 55.
He makes it 205 and i shove.

V had As 9c.

I scoop the biggest pot i ever had and leave..

The 500NL money wont go in the bankroll for now. Saving that for a trip with my girlfriend.

Ive been kindof lost with poker last week and decided ill sort of start over tomorrow..

Starting roll: 650$

Stakes: 10NL and 25NL

Timeframe: October.

I wont play drunk.

I will warm up to get focused.

I will stop if running bad.

I will aim for 2k minimum hands/day.

Lets see what October brings and a big samplesize of the same stakes bring.

Goal is to move to 50NL 1st November.

Livegame yesterday 1/2 6max. Went well and was a good time. Left about half a buyin up but most of all i had a really good time

Well, the GG - gods are punishing me so bad.

I get to finally shove AA preflop deepstacked and get called by KK just to get kicked on the turn by a K.

I get QQ in on the flop deepstacked for 175bb on 4 2 Q. Fish has called a 4b pre with 5 3 offsuit and hits the 6 on the river.

Im so sick of trying to play good fundamental poker when the ****ery is nonstop..

Im not blaming GG and not talking about rigging or any bullshit like that.

Im just on the worst run of all time.

Roll stands about 650$ and i just might take a break for a while.

Been a while but beacuse the game hasnt progressed basicly at all.

I must have played 20K hands since my last post and 20 mtts and roll stands at around 650$

I feel like im at the point were im just about to progress but cant really push trough to the good side.

I go up to 900$ and finish 4th in a mtt. then i go back to 600 in the coming week and so it goes on.

I switched to our Swedish site, Svenska spel poker and its so full of fishes. i sat at a table yesterday with
me and another reg, the other 4 players had a vpip over 60%..

Still i managed to come out loosing due to variance, K high 2 card flush vs A high 2 card and on and on and on..

Weelllll i forgot about this one for a while. Im not dead and im not broke.

I havent played much, focused on other stuff and keeping sober. trying to work out some and study poker more then ive been playing.

Started last monday with a weekly update in one of our Swedish pokerforums and im gonna post the same here.

This is monday - monday.
