Have managed to get 100 games in today, despite only planning on playing 30 as i'm going out shortly. Thanks to a few absolute fish rematching for 20+ games i've pushed myself and gone for 100 to add to the 135 I played yesterday. All making up for the the loss of volume due to the hangover i'm definitely going to have tomorrow.
Ran terrible in card distribution, fortunately I made up for it in all ins and ran 20BI above EV 
That puts my overall ROI at 9.23% over 1.5k $30s.
Sustainable? 
Nice to see you're still playing! It's been an age since I've been around here so thought I'd say hi!
Sorry to hear about your dog matey 
Always sucks when a close pet dies.
Anyway keep up the good work, and keep running so well!!
Cheers Tim, when I moved to $30s at the start of the motnh I certainly wasn't expecting a 110BI month ♦
Hey Jim, glad to see you around again, does this mean you're playing again?
AArvanity?
Volume has sucked big time this week, my laptop charger keeps stopping working so have had a lot of downtime with that, it works intermittently but it's not enough, for example it's just gone off now. Ordered a new one yesterday that should be here tomorrow, so that'll sort me out for the weekend grind ♠_cool: Overall my low volume has been pretty meh, no big ups or downs, which is fairly boring considering what usually happens in HU Hypers
Anyway, gtg before my laptop dies.
I'd like to.. Played again the other day, I think I'm pretty much starting from the beginning though, definitely a fish out of water right now!
Will read a few articles/watch a few vids and put some hours in, see if I can play poker at a poor level once again!

Here's an interesting hand. Villain is a slightly winning reg, but generally we're readless. I'd 3b shoved vs 3 of his opens so far, so taking into account this and the fact he is a reg, we can heavily discount the vast majority of Ax and Kx from his range thanks to his preflop limp. Qx is possible, but still a lot of them will minraise or open shove preflop.
This means the main question is: Do we think he is capable of value shoving a 7 here? There are a lot of 7x hands in his range, but I would be very impressed if he managed a thin value shove here.
Bluffing this runout is very good for him, he knows I have very little Ax and Kx in my range as well, so this is both the perfect runout for him to bluff, but also the perfect runout for me to hero call. On the river he shoves 210 into a 240 pot, so we need ~40% equity to call him off.
The only hand i'm a bit worried about is Qx, but this shallow I think there is only Q2-Q8o in his limping range, and I don't even think he's taking this line with all of them.There are an absolute ton of bluffs, hands like T6o, 89 etc etc, and I really don't think 7x is either value shoving or turning into a bluff here. Oh, and a very small amount of flushes as suited hands tend to raise or shove preflop.
Any thoughts?
Me call down, reasons what you mentioned.
Also

what do you mean very little? I can see hands like K2o checking back here, Id jam, but do you have Ax in your check back range 11bb? ♦
Typo in post that Manu pointed out, we need ~30% equity, not ~40%
I meant very little of the 2 as a whole, I have no Ax hands, and a few hands like K2-K5o pretty much ♦
Really nice progress, makes me want to go back into HU hypers again 
I played them for a while and like you I was also running quite a bit below EV although my EVROI was just like 5% at the $7s. So I ran back to 5max but this makes me want to try them again, thanks ♦
Get back on them ♠_cool: Variance can be a bitch, but as i've found the last month it can also be heaven
Anyway, regarding the hand, I did call down, he had 53, so my logic worked
Unfortunately it didn't yesterday when I floated a c/r on a JJ4r flop and shoved over his bet on the turn (Vs a decent reg) with complete air ♦ He had the Jx, which I just wasn't expecting a c/r from.
Wtf is this? 2 days under EV in a row!? :f_eek:
Put some decent volume in for 1 tabling this weekend, played about 270 games since Friday, hoping to get another 500 or so in before I go on holiday on the 23rd. Got a lot of things on and work most days so can't get any more than that in
Just for you graph whores out there, and to allow me a bit of a brag, here's all my $30s to date.
Hey Wriggers I really love your blog. I remember you, for taking the time to comment in my downswing thread. Glad to see you're progressing quite well. If you don't mind me asking what was your learning curve like? From reading your blog I see you started off in ring games how did you transition to HUsng's?
I have since moved to turbos and have had my best run ever but since school is around the corner will be short on time so back to hypers. Wondering how you improved your game? Cheers
Hey, sorry I didn't reply, I saw this post as I was on my way out then forgot about it
Np about the comment, I know how brutal variance can be, especially in these games and it can feel neverending, was just letting you know that it does end eventually, and that it can go the other way too! ♦
I've played a fair few different games over the years, starting out at NL FR ring games, I had minor success there beating up to NL50, then I transitioned to SH games where I had to up my game, unfortunately I didn't and the highest I managed to beat was NL25, after this I had a short stint at PLO, which was fun but pretty brutal :f_biggrin:. After the PLO stint I moved back to NLHE SH ring games, until I played the first Micromillions on Pokerstars, where I decided to fire up some Turbo HU SnGs, and I really enjoyed them. I grinded them for a few months before trying out some Hypers, and found it was even more fun!
I played for a month or so, probably a losing player before studying a lot and improving.
Thanks a lot for the reply Wriggers, it was nice reading your story. Glad things are working out for at the hypers. After another failed stint at the hypers I think I'm a better turbo player and will stick to those for the time being. All the best at the tables though.
Cheers
Haha yeah Hypers aren't for everyone ♦
First 2k games completed on the $30s, careful, graph is NSFW.
