Hello guys,
I proud to have my first contact with the English community on pokerstrategy.

I'm new to this community. My name is Mira and i'm a STT grinder. I'm now a reg at $15 FR and 6max games. I've been playing poker for almost 4 years, but started to grind on pokerstars in mid October. I now play exclusively on Stars - ID: mira_xoxo

I opened this blog in order to meet the other members, share my progress in crushing the limits, improve and to keep me motivated and focused on my goals.

So... Up 'til now:

OCTOBER:
I deposited $600.00 on Oct 10th 2012 on Pokerstars and started grinding the $7 STTs. Also played few MTTs with no notable results. Had some awful days and a downswing of almost 60BI at 6max so October wasn't such a good month, but I managed to mix 6max with FR and I kept my focus and morale intact.
Profit at the end of the month: $653
Games Played: 1898
Profit includes a good part of new player welcome bonus, and some other bonuses like stellar rewards and things like that.

NOVEMBER:
So November started with my usual grind at $7 STTs. Managed to move up to the $15s late in the month. Started playing them with $2.3k. Things went pretty well. Unlocked 3 x $50 stellar rewards + some mtt cashes (nothing notable).

Total profit for NOV including bonuses and mtts: $2260Games Played: 2313

Graph for NOV below (Filtered only for STTs).

Next post will contain a personal challenge for December. Also my personal goals.

I welcome every $15STT player to join the challenge _love:

DAY 1:

Played only 6 max for today. Ran pretty standard in the first session. Made some profit. In the other 2 that I played I ran like @$$@. Won close to 0 flips. Pair vs A, A always came. Took a lot of beats on the bubble and HU. No problem, that's just the way it has to go and you can't do anything about it. I'll call it a day. I'll be doing 30 minutes of reviewing and then go out. I need a drink :)

Session 1: $130.47
Session 2: -$53.61
Session 3: -$61.63

Total: $15.23
Games played: 80

Below are some hands from this session which I selected during the session:

Love the video and the 55 hand. A million different full houses possible and he still delighted to get his money in with the j high flush..

Btw, hope you get your status upgrade soon. People are, sadly,a bit wary of basic members.

Best regards,
Tim

Thx coach. Lots of weird plays from weird players at the 15s. Sadly most of them got rewarded against me in the past sessions. The thing with my account is that I'm not sure if it's correctly affiliated. I think I've done something wrong. I'll have to wait a few days and see if I start gathering SPs.

No need to be wary of me even if i'm basic. I won't ask for stacking or anything.

Started the challenge on the wrong foot so I need to work hard if I wanna have a chance to complete it. Currently running 15BI under ev. Already played 2 sessions today, both negative. Guess I'll be playing around 150sngs today. Hopefully downswing ends and I run like god for the rest of the month :) Otherwise I'll go kill a penguin

Will post an update at the end of the day

DAY 2:

Lots and lots of badbeats. Started to run pretty good in my last session for today. Even though i'm not making great profits these days, i'm getting some BR boosts by unlocking $50 Vip stellar reward and scoring in both orbits in last week's BOP promotion - that's another $90.

Session 1: -$41.10
Session 2: -$24.42
Session 3: $25.06
Session 4: $125.05

Total : $84.59Games played: 120
