PS doesn't load properly on my machine so cannot play there.

Its not my initial br management policy..
I came up with this safe plan after reaching 1k + .. i started about 150 -160$

I edited up in my initial post

Hi krasops, great first blog entry and interesting bankroll management plan.

Hope you get to ♠_biggrin:-stage soon! Good Luck!

Hey krasops!

100 bi's for a regular limit looks like a very conservative BRM. For example, my BRM is based on never playing a limit with less than 40 bi's for it, and taking 4 bi's shots at the higher limit when grind 44 bi's for that higher limit. With your bankroll my regular limit would be NL20/NL25 and would take shots at NL50. Maybe you are missing some value with playing NL10 with that bankroll.

Wish you the best of luck! Subed!

yo Alleen86,
First of all i want to say a big TY for your job and your whole study effort in w34zel's walk through. I'm grinding with your excel parallel with the tables :-)

I can understand what are you saying but my plan it's not exactly a pure bankroll management for poker ,
It's more like a safe business plan. Let me explain this..

When you have 100 bi for a regular stake u can

1) Invest(training sites,coaching,books,staking,trying other formats) in poker without harming the bankroll
2)Learn Variance Without Busting
3)Work Tilt Effectively
4)Try Different Strategies More Easily
5)Do shots feeling comfortable
6)Have micro-cash outs

All this come up to me after some not so good run @ shots -break even ages - tilting sessions..

Anyway, Im reaching close to 30k hands in my Army free period through 18 to 30 December...
I will post tomorrow my progress/results/thoughts...Have fun @ grinding fellas

So here comes the update.

WITHOUT POKER IN THE PAST WITHOUT POKER IN THE FUTURE

As you may saw i had to play poker from mid-november , so it was kind of a bet for me. The happy thing is that im back in my hometown so mixing poker with good social environment is something that helps of course. In order to emphasize in some thoughts i categorized the report in 3 timelines.

Graph 18 - 30 December 2014:

18 - 24 Dec : crushthemALL FEELING

The first 2k hands i started with some nl10 - just to be in my zone... Nothing special .. nl10 seems the same soft territory with many funplayers.The surprise come to nl16 ... Guys nl16 is maybe the softest stake now in stars.. OK .. Maybe i run super hot in there.lololol But i think it's a good stake-stop before you do the nl10 - nl25 jump. I continued my days mixing nl25 - nl16 with a very good short run-out.... In about 7k hands i was already in mood to do a nl50 session. I had this crushthemALL feeling and i didnt table select , just ctrl + s and open tables -- In fact the fishes are less but that isnt an excuse to not trying to find a good table[mistake1] As you see on the graph the nl50 shot is a Bungee-Jumping line in the white circle ... this was a DON'T GO AWAY session...A Lock-down in my room and regrinding the losses from nl50 --- i was happy cause i watched my tables more carefully and with a little luck i come backed !

Well maybe it wasnt lucky @ all --- Some WTF-HIGHLIGHT hands

26 - 27 Dec : Winter HAS COME!

Had a very good Christmas holiday with everything +socialEV included expect poker So after my head was cleared i started 26 Dec will the happy crushthemALL feeling playing good poker,table select ok.. BUT the poker gods weren't with me in that phase.... What you can do ??? The only thing u can do is to keep taking optimal decisions as much as your knowledge allows. As for mistakes i have to dig in the hands. As far i remember i made some wrong tilt sizes preflop with premiums and some tilting sizing's again post-flop with made hands.[mistake2]

Two hands describing the hard Winter

28 -29 Dec The questionable Comeback

28 Dec was my best day .... Everything worked ok - - the made hands paid by second best hands so I haven't a sad story from this day --- 29 Dec was a question for me..... I have left with 500vpps for 50$ and starting making rakeback grinding ... By rakeback grinding i mean zoom + regular tables ... Something im NOT used or good at all [mistake3] ... Fortunately i cut this tragedy early(-4.2 25nl bi) and keep playing my regular tables - table selecting - 4-8tabling -- etc.... I made my decision and im not going to loose my heart and roll grinding vpps. So i ended up regrinding a Little as u can see on the point the green line stops ......

Finally

Tomorrow i'm back to army ( its 5 min with car from my house ) so i want to see how the things will go and my main purpose is to mix my poker thing with it. I will try to database review all hands and post some thoughts on them..... Till the next update - happy grinding and
CRUSHTHEMALL IN A NEW HAPPY 2015 YEAR!

As you can see i have got only 9 days of pure poker ( 2 of them was <1k hands - lol to count them i know ) and the other was Army thing... My only simple goal until August is mixing poker with army... So I'm OK with this volume as the situation allows me...I have played some mtt's and got some action from mtt players too....My plan for February is continue playing nl16-nl25 and some nl50 until i hit something about 60-80bi for nl50 to start play nl50 regularly

I'm leaving you with posting some hands i get involved in January ..... Until Next update hope you ALL grind With Fun
