Hero bets $8.55

Pot up to SPR 1.5 or so and check deeper would be my line.

It's going quite well.

I've taken some shots at HU PLO 100 and it went pretty well.

Obviously I've been running quite good.

And I need to stop playing regs at HU SnG's 10... Because it's bery bery bery -EV for me.

Yes, it's a good practice, but I can't even beat the rake vs them...

So I was thinking of buying Vision for a month and WORK hard.

But even without it I feel confident, that I can beat PLO 50.
Obviously, I need to table select pretty hard, as beating 18 bb/100 rake is NOT EASY.

I mean, I am getting 60 % rakeback now, but still... Whales must be sitting there for me to beat the rake and be +EV!

Anyway, action was amazing yesterday. So I am gonna keep avoiding the regs and I should be good.

Also, rakeback has been helping me a TON!

And I need to STOP overbluffing certain spots. Especially vs guys who are not capable of folding flushes on paired textures :D

I need to take some time off.

I just don't enjoy playing.

Obviously, I am on a downswing, too but that's not the only case.

I need to do some real life activities too

Will ttyl guys.

Thanks for reading.

I am back at tables!

Trying to play PLO and NLH at the same time.

I have to say that it's quite fun, I just need to be aware, that I am using different opening sizes in NLH n PLO :D

Anyway, I was very demotivated and my roll was at 55 USD... so I figured now or never. And I am back at 311 USD!

I have to table select way better. Because playing vs regs with 18bb/100 rake is just stupid idea.

I've been playing a lot.

I realized that TABLE SELECTION is almost everything.

I've been battling regulars a lot. Ok, they are not very solid, but neither am I

And beating 18 bb/100 rake is just suuuuuuuper hard.

Vs recreationals it's definitely doable and winrates are berri, berri good, BUT...

But still they're not there all the time. And sometimes they win with weird hands.

I don't want to moan. I am old to that

I'll share some hands with some comments maybe.

Also, I'll share some of the crazy bluffs: some of them went through whereas others did not. Well such is life.

Hi @ sebadread, thanks for asking!

Unfortunately I had to quit the bankroll challenge, for multiple reasons:

1) PokerStars changes in RB system
2) Motivation issues
3) Real life issues

My roll was around 1k, but then I had to withdraw majority of it, as some unexpected things happened in my life.

And I'm not planning to deposit again, as I had 60 % rakeback before and now it would be less than a half.

Rakeback was my main source of income, as I had to beat huuuuge rake.
