My objectives - Operation Newbie

Ok, so i've seen some people posting operations
here's mine

I started with a 400$ br that lasted me 6 months, breaking even or losing little... until it ended (thanks to variance, the tilt gods, and some donk plays)

I now have started again with 200$

My first objective is to go up to 1k and reduce my donk plays to the minimum. I've been reading all i can and have been working on my game, i now feel i can beat the low stakes if i don't get away from certain general guidelines.

I feel i have a better understanding of tilt now, but i'll be watching that too

OK, so i started on saturday with those 200$ on 25NL
i've played about 1-2hs everyday and have had 4 winning sessions and 1 break even
I am now at 295$

I play full ring games and low stakes sit n gos
I'll try to post some hands and updates on this and hopefully i'll be up there in no time.

cheers!

Played for 2 hours yesterday, up another 20$...

315$!!!!!

GL. There is a danger you may be under rolled so you need to really watch that tilt.

Recommend: Setting aside a number of buyins you're prepared to drop in a session. If it ever goes over that, stop and no excuses. Go crack one out or something

Friday night: -33$

some bad beats (a lot maybe) and i managed to overcome a small moment of tilt and cut my losses (i'm happy about that part)

Total: 282$

Keep trying, gotta keep trying...

I hear you, thats what happened yesterday. I'm setting the limit on 2buyins.

Thanks for the advise

Good luck! But following proper BR management you need a bankroll of about $500 to play 25NL. Maybe it would be better/easier to play Sit'nGo's till then, say the $5's?

I don't know..up to you anyway obviously!

when you are playing at 25NL, you will hear a lot about br management, especially when you post a roll of ~$300.

my opinion, you are fine...so long as you set a limit as to when you will drop to 10NL. say, you go under $200 or 20 BI's...then, you need to either drop a level, or reload.

choice is yours...not all of us want to deposit $50 and build it to $10k. some of us are in this for the hobby, and would like to play at a level we feel we can win some decent money at...and stay there until we can beat it...because we dont mind reloading.

good luck

On Saturday, played a few SnGs and went up to 300$

Thanks all for the support and advise, i realise i may be a bit underrolled but i have come to learn that my game improves a bit like this as i tend to play more reckless if i feel my bankroll is big, that's why i did'nt load more for this operation.

357$

416.30$ and counting!

i now have poker tracker although my sample is minimal, i'll post some stats when i get some more hands in there

I'm totally stuck around 450$...

:/

havent been able to grind anything lately
