2.2k hands @100NL fr, +$275

BR $6680 weeeeee!

Following my BRM plan I made at the beginning I should now be playing 1/2FR regularly and be shotting 1/2 6max on occasion. I´ll be staying at 0.5/1 until the end of the month and then overthink my BRM plan again for the following reasons:

- I´m curious if I can maintain a winrate >2.5ptBB/100 over a solid sample, until OP start I was 1.8 longterm

- I dont wanna switch sites, since I have a good deal at CDPoker and like the software, but iPoker 1/2 FR is contaminated with rakeback- and FPP-pros.

- I´m not confident in my 6max game. I could probably beat 100NL FR, but I doubt I could do a bigger winrate than at FR. I´m not ready for 1/2 6max yet

- I´d like to have a somewhat deeper BR to avoid tilting/scared money issues. My biggest improvement this month was to learn to really think things through before I act, to strictly concentrate on ranges and ev´s, not being results oriented and to always look ahead and not letting yesterdays beats phase me. If you scroll up you´ll see that I went on wild 3 BI monkeytilt once, but I did not get in this chronic semi-tilt state of mind that cost me so much moniez in the past.

- I have exams and 3 weeks of business training in Feb/March and will therefore not have the time to study the game in depth. I don´t want to advance in limits without advancing as a player. This somewhat correlates with tilting issues, when the next downswings hits at 1/2 and I´m stressed the tilting monster may come out again.


On todays session: I had a brutal start, getting stacked twice with set over set and one rivered boat over boat. Again I ran nittish 13/11/4, I tightened up in EP due to tons of shortstacks, still I´m the only regular player with a two-digit PFR. Att.2 steal was 25%, which is okay I guess and should be near optimal for todays table conditions. I´m looking for opportunities to squeeze for the past 3 weeks and did okay, funny side note: none of the regs has adjusted yet.

#1 SB is 13/8/3 regular, he stacked me earlier with the mentioned boat over boat, no history beside that. My image is solid, river bluff raises are very uncommon and I doubt he´s betting weak to induce a raise. I´m basically turning my hand into a bluff here, since I´m repping Kx/QJ and I have no idea if its a good play.

#6 This one is interesting. BTN is 15/6/2.1 semi reg, haven´t played him for a while. He´s kinda tricky, I folded to two possible floats before. I had a hard time putting him on a hand, he could have KQ, JJ-TT, 88, 22 and spades. KQ/88/22 raise flop a large % of the time, so he´s most likely to hold spades or tries to rep them w/ 2nd pair. C/c or b/f river?
