First of all, congratulations to a married man :-)

I have downloaded your excel ranges but experience problems when opening it with openOffice. The Buttons (macros) seems not to work with OpenOffice, is there any trick to fix or should I open it with excel only?

I believe it works only with Microsoft Excel... Didn't try with OpenOffice, though.

Ranges are w34z3l's, not mine, but I believe they are fine. I have seen even looser ranges than his. :)

I came home from the "honey moon" today. School starts tomorow. Time to get back to usual living. :f_eek: Will also steadily continue my poker journey, played just a couple of Spins on vacation. To start with, would like to show you a bit of atmosphere from the wedding. Here is the 2nd dance: :f_biggrin:

BBvsSB. Why you 3bet K2s, but call T2s?

As I said, I haven't invented those ranges, but I guess K2s has more equity and plays better in a 3bet pot in position (in case SB calls). With T2s we have enough equity and playability to call vs SB range, but not enough to pump the pot preflop. Postflop we can win the pot in various situations often enough (we need to win the pot in 30% of cases to make the preflop call profitable).

Here is the report for Get Rich or Die Tryin' - The Bankroll Challenge:

Starting bankroll: 1.061,04 USD
Targeting bankroll: 5.305,20 USD
Last week bankroll: 2.196,56 USD
-------------------------------------------------------------
Week 86
Hands (NL25): 3.519
Profit: 66,80 USD
Rakeback: 20,00 USD
Week 86 profit: 86,80 USD
Week 86 progress: 3,95%
Current bankroll: 2.283,36 USD
-------------------------------------------------------------
Overall profit: 1.222,32 USD
Overall progress: 28,80%

After a couple of weeks without poker, am quite satisfied with the comeback. After moving to NL25 seems I can't make a step forward in terms of bankroll, but at least I'm keeping up with the limit. There are many things to improve in my game, but I can't do it all at once and can't do it fast because of my poker time limitations. Firstly I will finish "The Mental Game of Poker" (~30% to left) and then will put the effort into combating with technical leaks. The mental game is very important so I consider doing (not just reading) the book a quality time. Was a bit more nervous this week than usuall (also typing a bit in the PokerStars chat :D ), but nothing dramatic. Overall am satisfied with the improvement in my mental game this year. Hope that will soon start to make some monetary results at NL25, though, because I can hardly be more break even than I am atm. :D

I have two postflop charts here to download (docx files) about blind defense as a preflop caller and preflop 3bettor.
