You've already crushed it so why worry about variance? You should have moved up to nl 5 a month ago.

Is your country now banned?
Check with support -- maybe your IP address is getting misread as coming from another area.

Hopefully there are other rooms you can play on...

Can't find my groove in Holdem, playing like the fish you want on the table. -12 BI.

I picked up plo zoom, 2 tabling, have to work hard to get more volume in and attack the leaderboard too. Just taking things slow, learning a bit more and having fun!

Looking good so far!
Having fun is a huge part of success at poker, I think. Yeah, you can make money "grinding" but when it becomes a chore to play, you might as well get a job -- the hourly is better in general :coolface:

If you're thinking PLO, think kyyberi
He has a beginner PLO course that is well worth the time and effort.
He also has regular PLO coaching sessions.

All the best,

Found a new site to play on, partner of PS too I think. Pokerdom will be my new home.

Few minors, lowest stake they offer is 1/2 (4NL) playing boost/zoom. Have a few hands in just to test it, seems really soft. Not a lot of regs.
It's webbased, but pretty smooth. Wanted to grind 2nl, so have to get lucky with small deposit and run it up!

Let's go!

Not winning (Yet) but OMG people calling 4 bets with 23s, 109o, bluff with no equity on turns. Software is meh, hard to make notes since it's web based. High potential to do well on there, might take a new deposit lost a few all ins, excited, never seen a pool so bad :)

The hard part of playing on those types of sites is that it becomes nearly impossible to put players on ranges.

Best of luck :gl:,

the adjustments are easy. play your hand by absolute hand strength, never fold anything decent. short term variance can be pretty high, but it's really easy

Almost busto, hit an eight BI loss in 3 mins span, shame the site doesn't seem to offer to run it twice. Only a first deposit bonus for their casino and not for poker. All in all tho, the site is really full of fish. In a few days I make a deposit that can stand a downswing, so I can grind 3/4 tables zoom (boost tables) and I think it will be good!

Back soon and will keep posting, it's fun playing poker again :)

Trackers not allowed, can't show any profits. Need to find the grind, but doing very well at zoom :)

F**** lame site, 120 buy minus EV. Its so surreal. Something really fishy is going on. I'm gone cash out and see what Acr does. FK that site!

Enough, this morning I loose 15 buy ins within the hour, all like no freaking way. Done with Pokerdom, have some trouble with a cash out, but should be fixed. Unregulated Acr then, yay me!

Can't get my money out, yay Curacao licensed company, so I lost another 10 buy ins. This site is so rigged!

Long time, I kept playing on the Russian site and was doing well, until I hit a cruel downswing (site is just weird, favorites the smaller stacks and fish in run outs). I moved my still nicely increased bankroll over to an American network. I'm getting destroyed on the skrill rates! Pokerwise after battling it out on 5nl it is time for the next step and I'm planning to stay there on 10nl Blitz.

Well the badrun is starting again, small sample but I feel okay about it and my bankroll can take a small hit, before the run good!

Better days to come!
