February is completed and here are my results for the first month :

Hands : 39.357
Profit : 50.46 Euro + 9Euro rakeback + 3 Euro Bonus.

Bankroll : 112 Euro

Not the results that i was expecting for my challenge but is a decent start. I just have to work more on my game and i will reach my goals. Slow and steady :D

Im not an Excell expert but i made some math :

I just have to put in what limit do i play and how much money i want to win and i will get:

How much hands i need to play
How many days will take

I think i can play 1k hands every day this month and i think i can make those 38 euro that i need to move to NL5 in 20 days, give or take a few.
Of course if things goes the way i want :f_wink:

I will add later my goals for this month.

Good luck everyone ! :f_drink:

This are my goals for this month. I decided not to put goals like money and winrates out there.
So i choose only things that i can control and if i play my 30 k hands and work on my game the results will come for sure.

Great results still!

Thank you Tim ! :f_drink: I now i can do much better, i just have to put my lazy ass to work.

Hey ungluecklicher thank you :f_drink:

I moved here in 2009 and i started to work here. And after that i never left. In Romania i get in 3 months the same money i get here in one month.
I´m going to Romania only 2 months a year to take a break and relax.

Good luck with your challenge :f_thumbsup:

For the first 7 days of this month my winrate was at 10bb/100 but the day before yesterday and yesterday i lost almost 8 BI :facepalm:

I´m not happy with my game so in the next post i will analyze my database and see what i have to do to improve my results.

Database and Stat Analysis review


UO PFR% - I open way to much from EP&MP, a bit higher from CO and in the BU i can add some hands. I have to drop some hands in early positions.
This stats should look more like this: EP 14%, MP 19%, CO 27% BU 50%, SB 36%- in SB i can add a lot more hands if BB has a high fold bs SB steal (add stats to HUD )

3bet - My 3bet is way to low i have to learn/remake 3bet ranges.
This stats should look more like this: MP 4%, CO 6%, BTN 8-10%, Sb&BB 8-9%

ColdCall - This is a bit to high. And in SB is almost double i call way to many hands.
This stats should look more like this: 12-13% overall, MP 6-7%, CO 8-9%, BTN 10-12%, SB 7%, BB 26%

Cbet - My cbet on the flop is low, cbet Turn is f***ing to high, River Cbet a bit high.
This stats should look more like this: Cbet Flop 65%, Cbet Turn 52%, Cbet River 44%

Flop Raise Cbet - I dont raise enough hands on the flop. My stat is 10 and this stats should be around 15%

WTSD, WWSF, W$SD - My WTSD is way to high i dont have a Fold button, WWSF is way way to low, W$SD is low this is mostly because i go to much to SWD with trash hands.
This stats should look more like this: WTSD 25%, WWSF 47-50+%, W$SD 50%+

This is all for today I will add tomorrow a few more stats and some conclusions.
To find your leaks is not that hard to learn and adapt....well that is the hard part :fouet::fouet::fouet:

I analyzed all the stats but makes no sense to post them.

The conclusion is simple: I kinda suck at poker ! Almost all stats are bad/wrong.

In Greek mythology Sisyphus was the king of Ephyra. He was punished for his self-aggrandizing craftiness and deceitfulness by being forced to roll an immense boulder up a hill only for it to roll down when it nears the top, repeating this action for eternity.

Once up on a time there was a man named George whose day job was to play NL2 poker for...eternity. :truestory:

The work of Sisyphus :

This is all i need to do to improve my game :

-Use the right Open Ranges
-3bet more ( use the right 3bet ranges )
-Use less hands when i ColdCall especialy in the SB.
-Learn what hands to Cbet on what boards and how many streets.
-Learn to fight more for every pot. My WWSF says im like Spiderman and i should be more like Batman punching all Villains.
-Learn how to play from blinds. ( use the right ranges )
-Make new-tight ISO Range. ( All french players are loose pasive fishes, they all Limp...maybe this is a strat in France )
-Bet more when people check flop,check/raise more flops.
-Stab Turn and River.
-Fold more when i get raised.
-Stop being a Fish.

I cant fix all my leaks at once so i will go step by step.

I have in my Pc Opening Ranges from the next poker coach : Weazel, BsB, Zerros, Scrimitzu, Confidant, McRoger, Santi Tores, Gordon Gekko...so i have where to choose from.

This is what i decided i will use for myself :


I work a lot on my game and i play a lot less untill i will fix some of my big leaks.

Good luck everyone ! :f_drink:

Hello Rhodriguez. Thank you for visiting my blog! .


Last year, the whole year, i´ve read only one book and that happend only because i had no internet connection for 2 days.
I rember i picked the first book that i stumble on and the title was ¨Me before you¨.

Last week i was using google to find some interesting books and a title got my atention : ¨After you¨ by Jojo Moyes.

After a few minutes on Amazon i got this book :

I´ve only read 30 pages, but i will finish the book for sure this month.

If anyone has any suggestion for a book that i can read next month please let me know.:f_drink:

Hey Tim, I'm a Photoshop enthusiast. Yes all pictures are made more or less in Photoshop.

I used to love to do photomanipulation a few years back. And from time to time i still use the Photoshop.

Some work that i´m proud of ( even tho sometimes i use some tutorials to learn new things ):

I used this one as a Christmas card last year.

One of the first photomanipulation that i did.
