There ya go ! Not "I hope" but "I will"


Today was sick day :

Games: 48
Avg Buyin: 2.15$
ROI: 53.7 % (EV 31.4%)
Time: 1.7 Hours
Bankroll - 269$

Its really nice as I feel my game improves and get better.
Every time I review a game , I learn something new.
ST lets me put the volume i wish and still have time to improve my game.
I really hope I'll keep doing this for long time , and when the doomswitch will come... I'll be able to deal with it well... lol...

:spade: I've managed to get a shining silver leader board star near my name in sharkscope :f_cool:

Most annoying hand today (I even managed to trap with it.. rofl)

And now for something off topic.
If anyone of my loyal readers (the whole 3 of you ...) like watching good TV shows , There is a new show called Sherlock , its about Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson on our time line (they use cellular , laptops).

I've seen first episode and it was really good.

Till next time , Have fun and best of luck to you all .

Hey ,
this was a crazy upswing.. lol...
I still have many holes in my game , I think I should wait for bigger bankroll before moving to the 5...

How long have you been on the leaderboard ?
Btw , its enough for 2-3 bad session to remove me from there.. lol...


Today went ok ,
The nice thing about ST is that I play so many games that when I manage to give and get bad beats (although I get more then I give... but thats because I manage to play better hands pre flop)

My stats for today:

Games: 54
Avg Buyin: 2.15$
ROI: 6.5 % (EV 32.9%)
Time: 1.6 Hours
Bankroll - 279$

I decided sharing two hands which made me smile in today sessions.

Went for isolation here

Some interesting hands (for SuperTurbo's!) here Foldi, I think we need a better HUD for our game though.
[#Hands] [VPIP/PFR] [Steals - CO BU SB] and [FBB2Steal maybe FBB2SBSteal]
If the hands require it we can put in limp-fold/call and fold to 3bet.

10BB's I'm checking behind - with 5BB's I think your push is good given his 43VPIP. This is from all positions so you can imagine in the SB his requirements are much less - maybe 60%+

This is one where I'd like to see the steal stats, esp seen as you have a few more hands on him. This looks like a fold at these blinds, though 20/40 I would call.

This is the one that looks like a mistake to me, esp in the 1st level. I'm trying to bear in mind that we only have 21 hands and that this is a $2 game so we see more random plays - but when I see this min-3x UTG raise from a guy with his stats it looks like a premium hand. EDIT - Apologies - I thought you called, looks like you got them all right !

Tell me the results later ;)


Well , I didn't have much time to post on the blog , But I kept playing at least 50 games each day.
since my last update I've been running good.

1. It really confuse me sometimes when someone just 3xbet , what are they trying to achieve here ? do they have monster or trying to steal ? do they want a call ?

I saw you suggested adding stats to HUD.
But when I copy /w stats from HEM , this is what it gives me. (Can it be changed?!)

Btw , Stop turning skype off when you're playing.
I've waited 30 minutes and you didn't come back to review :f_mad:

Sorry about that bud, I had to play and don't like skype on. I was only an hour or so - think we should arrange a time ahead so that it doesn't clash with either of our playing times.

Easy now

Owe , I wasn't mad :heart:
Today morning I played 2 sessions before work , went bad , came home player another 2 sessions , went good. (I'll post stats soon)

I feel like my games review in the last couple of days wasn't as serious as it was in the beginning and I need to play less and study more (Maybe Nib doesn't want me in his limit yet... lol)

Lol, not my limit any more ! You wrote some good advice for yourself, esp when you're in between limits I think this is paramount. The games will be different in style, more aggressive on the whole and this will screw around with the ranges you've been used to. more review = less spew _o:

Well , Had a game review with Nib today,
We talked alot about ranges (I wont tell... shhh....) and after that I tried to loosen my game a bit from the BTN (fixing a leak)
and although I busted out couple of games even with good hands like AKs vs 33 , this hand was priceless... LOL....

gl with your super turbo voyage. I hope you get far. The true skillz i think you need to acquire to beat these are grind motivation, tilt control, persistence. strategy and game thoery will easily fall into place but many people give up on supers too easy because of the swingyness. If you think you can master them you will cruise through the limits. Just keep a solid head and understand when your running good as well as bad.
