Day 4

This day started very good. I found 6 juicy tables with many rich fish and played them till noon. After that things didn't go that well and I lost almost all my profit till last 200 hands where I managed to win a couple of buyins. I was running like a sh*t after noon. Flopped set over set few times deep, ofc I had bottom set :) Also there was 1 fish in zoom who played 65/40 and he overcalled my 3bet every time. I always had something, but he always flopped nuts (except one time when he flopped top2 and turned boat). He had $1.5k on the table after 1 hour of playing :P Hope for some better run tomorrow, 2k down till now.

I'm not quite sure, but I think somewhere a little bit below 6k VPPs. Still can't get sne this year, even if I play 240k hands/month till end of the year. I had only a little bit over 100k VPPs when I started this grind.

yeah, like 8-9 hours per day. It's really annoying, I will try to play more tables next week most likely to get 12k in 6-7hours

Nice challenge Janka!
Quick question: Why are you playing mon-frid 9 to 5? I guess you are doing this on purpose but don't you think you are sacrifying a lot of EV?

Probably, but it's really anti-social to play all the best ev times, as you never have time on the weekends or nights.

Also, the blog title IS in fact playin' zoom NL200 n drinkin' beer

How do you expect him to drink beer at 9am in order to make it home for an 8 hour session with a clear head, if you want him to turn the pokersession and beerdrinking sessions around to eachothers' times?!

Yeah.

Most softer games are somewhere around 8PM - 6AM, but I really don't wanna play that time every day :P
