The beast trading crypto and playing poker

Hello sir,

I just got into Jackspot sng's and i stumbled onto your thread. Im most def following you.
Keep up the nice results.

Best regards

I have a few questions regarding spins?
What is a decent chipEV to aim for? ITM? Is evROI also important?
I know this is a small sample but just wanted to make sure im getting it right. Most stats say im doing pretty good in terms of expected value right? But for one reason or another im down 20+ bi's. I just want to learn and understand those stats better...

Thanks in advance for your reply and good luck at the tables!

Hello
I saw some of you send me a friend request but for now i have some troubles accepting new invitations .
I think the easiest way to calculate things is to aim for ChipEV there is a program called swong slim where u put ur chipev and they told u what should be ur ITM and ROI for those program we exclude 100x+ because u want to see how much money u are going to make with basic multiplies like 4x - 25x. Yea this is the problem with Spins u might have 80 chipev and lost money and u might have 25 and have profit . Everything depend on what is ur winrate on 4x+ what is the ratio u got tis month between 2x and 4x+ . Ur graph look nice but u need to have better winrate for player up to 7s i have seen people with 90 chipev on 3s-7s . Play 2 tables and probably the best way is to figure out what positions u are not making enough bb per 100 hands and work on it .

Cheers!

Hey fellas i ask pokerstars to send me my Hand history from the last date they have on me.
I put all buyins between 28 and 30 because RB was 5% long time ago and i saw i made over 1200 buyins on 30s i am bankroll nit ? Going to attack 60s and hopefully 100s soon gl on tables mates !

I finally found the best way to exercise this summer

Hey fellas!
Missing me ? Probably not . It was super nice month I will start one by one .
First poker related this month was epic fail . I couldnt grind a lot but still make a lot of coachings so i will get some payment from there too .
My girl left for Hanover so i spend as much as i can time with her we meet the Serbs! Then we travel to Serbia for a weekend spend really nice time and bring some tasty gifts in Bulgaria : rakja ot Dunja . We visit some palace make a lot of photos had a dinar probably in the best place ever ever start asking how much is cost of apartment there . I really enjoy staying in Nish with my friends and my girl . And the food was epic . Still that day every meal i have rated for 1 to 10 now i need 20 number scale because of that food . Coffee place were great ,taxi were cheap food quality was great if u are not vegan,vegetarian or any sort of not eating meat and lactose free food this is the place for you .
After that we got back to Sofia prepare some stuff in the university again for my master degree and get a flight to Germany to send my girl to Hanover .
I didnt even took my laptop we spend as much as we can time together . Visiting some parks ,BBQ with friends ,museums and traveling on the rivers over a boat drinking some beer. Weather everywhere was epic . Super hot no rain at all . After that i take my flight back home get back yesterday and now starting to create working plans for the new month . I start playing 60s but i will need to get in shape for few days havent played like 12 days .

Chipev 70 everytime when i dont have to grind i run hot ...

1971$+ 435$ RB + some private money from coaching
I made like 2406 total for 27 hours or close to 90 $ per hour this is something that i can get use to ♠_cool:

Gl on the tables!

one small announcement i CANT accept friend request or write private massages so if u want to contact me u need to use Skype : alzirius4445
I will use the forum to answer a guy .

This questions is really important and i am playing some MTTs from time to time myself . There are a lot of pros and cons. Advantage of the spins that u can make good hourly on low stake without searching other platforms ,usually stars is enough u can still find enough fish till higher stakes and probably with removing RB it will have even more recreational players .U can make ur own time management like play 2 hours go out drink coffee play other 2 hours go do some bank stuff then grind back again 2 hours , this in MTT is not realistic especially in pokerstars limit like up to 10$ u will see super big MTTs with slow blinds that can go up to 10 hours grind. So in hourly winrate both are good option for time management i prefer Spins than MTT coz i cant stay like 9 hours on one place every day 9 hours .
For games u can choose a lot of rooms to play spins and some MTTs in small rooms dont have enough traffic during day time so u need to stick with big rooms and a lot of players where variance will be bigger . Spins u will learn a lot more in depth preflop and postflop play especially postflop. In MTT i see a lot of good regs on higher stakes not sure what to do and not many of them use piosolver or program like that to improve their game . MTTs even on higher stakes i see a lot of bad regs that bink some good MTT make a lot of cash and underestimate the luck they got and play higher stakes than they should witch on spins u will see too but not so clear because when u check ur chipev u know u are not soo good and need to work on ur game or go down on stakes . I still think in near few years spins will have a lot of money to make from . My idea is to build roll and learn in depth HU 3way game so when i play MTTs and i go to final table to have advantage over the players . And play more expensive MTTs like 100$ buyin and field between 1k -2k people . The both formats are profitable, high variance its about time management and witch one fit more ur style .If i forgot something ask my in the skype because i am watching the question from picture file .
GL !

Hey fellas ,whats up!

I hit 100s division at the gym i am over 100 kg so i need to start training again i had some problems with the elbow but i will try to burn more calories than to set up big weights . I start 4 tabling 60s and 30s with mix frequencies for this month i see my avg buyin is 53$ so we will se how it is going to end . Probably at the end of this week i will finish my lab experiments and will try to step up more hardcore . I have some students from stable like 5 guys so need to work with them too send them some hands to analyses to see how deep they think into the hands.
I start eating healthy so no rakjia ,beers etc .. bought 3 kg of chicken breasts and a lot of vegetables so i can prepare like several meals for the 2 days ahead so when i got hungry not to get rush to eat something unhealthy . We will see how it is going to work i set goal to reach 95 kg now i am more like 105 kg. Before u judge me how fat bastard i am i am 2m long so 95 is good weight for me ,easy to make pull ups and other exercises included own body weight .

I will post my graph for Chipev i havent check my money account yet i will do it in near future to see is there any profit .

P.S.1 if someone know if bulba31 have a blog i will be happy to read he is kind of legend on 60s .

P.S.2 what do u think about this reg ,call ? I will be happy to hear some thoughts

GL guys on the tables and lets prepare properly for winter .

Interesting and good call with t8o but I think its standard vs overbet river.
When you over bet river, you are capped to trips, boats and quads that you X flop and then B B and for bluff SDs and FDs. In your obet river you don't have Kx hands nor hands like AA QQ and such, so you are polarized to busted SDs, FDs, random no SDV hands so bluff catching with 8x facing over bet is fine! If you used different sizing like 1/3 1/2 2/3 you could fit Kx, QQ AA TT in such spots as well as strong 8x (A8 Q8). Since you used over bet river, you are polarized and 8x is a must call, especially because K on the river splits the pot (works in favor for opponent to have weak kicker with 8x because of JJ88 kicker doesn't work on K run out river!).

t6o hand is also interesting. I don't dislike his play because he blocks straights that call down (64 and 68), has a weak SDV (he will have better hands that he can play with b b x or b x b, x b b and such). His limping range 10bb will have on this texture and run out straights, 2 pairs, sets, over pairs. So thanks to that strong range that he will play as b b b, he can in the same line fit bluff that have blockers and weak SDV (which this hands fits in).
The only (potential) problem with this hand that I see is:
- Sizing (on the turn)
- Fact that it blocks your flop calling range for both straight and flush draws which makes your pair type hands to be more likely
- When you call 2 barrels you are less likely to fold river your bluff catchers facing such pot odds OTR
- River PTSR (you get amazing prize to bluff catch with any 7x 9x here if he ever bluffs which he will do, busted FDs, turn hands into bluff that have weak SDV and such).

So I don't dislike the play, think it has solid foundation in terms of how his overall value and bluff range looks in this spot, but I would definitely use different sizing's here, set up river to be pot or over bet, not 1/2 pot or less because it invites opponent to bluff catch thin always and with bluffs this will be more times -EV then +EV play because opponents in Spins are call happy in such spots super often.

Winter is coming - with Stars RB changes ♦
Need to figure out hourly differences with 2, 3 and 4 tabling on 15s, 30s and mix. We can look into it together and figure out best options

1.- Sizing (on the turn)- agree
2.- Fact that it blocks your flop calling range for both straight and flush draws which makes your pair type hands to be more likely - exactly
3.- When you call 2 barrels you are less likely to fold river your bluff catchers facing such pot odds OTR -exactly when u know that i have SD value it is hard to make anyone fold there .
4.- River PTSR (you get amazing prize to bluff catch with any 7x 9x here if he ever bluffs which he will do, busted FDs, turn hands into bluff that have weak SDV and such). -yea when i saw it is bulba i snap call he is doing really weird lines .

vs reg i will balance this but i think 80% of the time i will x back and make delay cbet so i can make over bet on river if i want to fold 3d pair .
i dont say it is bad to bet but when u are playing vs reg that he have 200 hands for u and ur limp stab is 75% u dont want to fold to jam so much equity in this spot.
Vs fish i will be stabbing here because fish is easier to manipulate fish dont think for ranges it just see it have 3-4-5d pair and decide to call to fold dont give a shit about u .
About T8 hand i agree but still i want to give max combos of bluffs in his range and somehow when i have Tx i block alot of straight draws , for me it will be even worst call here with 9h,Th . Yea we could argue a bit that when we have T we block TJ in his range but still avg people defend 60%+ so we will have enought Jx in our range and in this hand i had Jx and went for max value .

Hey guys June pass by and it is time for Update!

First i will start with my favorite room pokerstars ,it is official next month we are grinding through the new system of points i am trying still to figure it our mathematically how much is going to be the RB so i can make hourly calculation and to decide what to do because a lot of luck involved with opening the chests so only time will tell .
July in Bulgaria is hot like hell avg 38-44 degree Celsius and i am sitting all day under air conditioner and only sport activity is to try to survive the day . Next month i will go with my girl for one week on black sea in Sozopol for a week so i hope rains to pass us coz of this hot weather storm is going to rage in next few days at least it will become colder . I made an account in other room to try spins for back up and like a fish in first 10 games it give me 100x on 10euro game so i manage to win the game and took nice price for it .In pokerstars i was playing 4 table 60s at the begin of the month but at the middle i had so much coolers that my chipev drop to 38 i was still making cash but my actual chipev and multipliers ratio from 2x > to anything better won was brutal so from 3k+ drop to -3k so it is standart downswing but coz of my roi drop to 2% i needed to play some 30$ games to fix it . Decided to invest in some crypto currencies that one friend suggest so i am now more like investing and holding than reading how to trade etc ,coz i am brutal fish there and dont want to try to play with the shark without any proper introduction with the format.
So july in few words
-master degree work in the lab done
-having 6 students
-playing 1,5k games in stars
-playing around 300 games in other room
-investing money in crypto currencies

pokerstars chipev charts and money .

upswing is on the lower limit as always .

-1670$

hourly this month around 36$ so i should be up around 1900$ but no luck

RB is 920$

so Stars i am down around 750$

now other room like i said i am up somewhere 700 $ but pt4 is not showing everything maybe bug maybe coz i got to final 16 on mtt there who knows

so it is more like 700$ with no RB because i collect points w8 to get higher status and then sell them for cash.

at the end this month i am down -50$

It is good that i have side winnings from coaching , affiliate programs, crypto currencies , winning some cash at euro probably all bettors guess those games there were full of money .

So next month i will work again with PIO ,will work with Peija( if u havent check his video playing spins it is brutal shame they set up only gold status for it when i know that pokerstartegy dont offer to many rooms maybe this is the reason other wise it is for diamond status ). I will go for 1 week on black sea and will have defense on my master degree on the end of the month i just want to find time to write it coz i am super bored and lazy doing this .

Cya guys and gl on table if u ship 10 000x after reading this one 1% donation to me and my buddy so i can go back to Serbia and buy few bottles for my non drinking alcohol friends Ivan,Radoj and Peija

I see some 100x multi rubbed of on you from me? :f_love::f_thumbsup:

You should come to Serbia regardless - summer is great time to drink and chill doing procrastination like a boss

I few the same like this girl . The guy is pokerstars and u open a chest or coffin like some Russians mention in 2+2 thread

18+

Different chest color what is the AVG winrate from them .

When i need to explain my friends what am i playing for a living

I fell the same way like that guy.
MICROSOFT You Made Me Racist !

about poker ,life etc.
Havent played many games this month because i was on nice hotel with my girl in Sozopol . Then i was sick few days because weather fucked up and was cold at the end but i had goals to drink a lot of beers so ..
At the end of the month i will have Exam for obtaining a Master's degree so i am working my ass for this thing . August is my last month with my stable so i need to talk with the boss to see are we going to agree on something or we will go on separate ways .

Hey guys report for July.

I talk with my boss and figure it out that i sign on 13.09.2016 so i will play till then for the beast community and after that i will try on my own i save enough money to try play on my own . I need to grind 2400 games till then i and i start shooting 60s and 100s but probably will back up from them coz i dont want to get in make up few days before i finish my contract will stay on 30s and try to make as much money i can.
I did great job on my master's degree defense and got really high score so really proud with my self . I was fucked up mentally in poker because of those exams so now i can focus really hardcore on grinding .

This is the money chart around 540$ USD

There will be some RB but i lets say it is around 10$ for easy calculations .

From coaching, affiliates i will get some cash too.

The best thing about July my girl come for 10 days so i didnt grind just go to sea , swim ,eat ,shit , s*x repeat and then studying for my master degree coz i was really nervous and could not grind normal with this back thoughts about this exam.

I will post few hands from my 100s to see that games are not as bad as people describe them just hard work fish is everywhere .
