Yuck. Down about 1.5 buyins after a short session of 300 or so hands. I'm kind of tired tonight so I'm not going to push it. |

Random thought: I suck at post-flop play. That is all. |

Update: I've been running good and playing decent over the last few sessions. Bankroll up to $620 (+4.6BI). There's been a few times where I got a little lackluster and made some stupid calls but nothing too costly. Still, I need to play my A game, not my A- or B+ game. |

So I was playing absolutely awful at 10nl last night. I'm down 1.5 BI and decided to shut it down. 20 minutes later I've calmed myself down, logged back on and opened up 6 - 5nl tables. Why do you run like God when you move down a level? It's great to regain your losses (and then some) by moving DOWN. So many players make the mistake of sitting around waiting to get back at a certain villain or move UP stakes to recoup their losses. Not good. |

Just squeezed in an hour session of almost 500 hands. Bankroll up to $640ish. I've barely put in 4k hands at 10nl since the start of this operation but it's coming along. I'm at 11.42ptbb/100 right now so hopefully I can keep it there if not improve on it a bit over the next 10k+ hands. |

Just wanted to make a quick note here. I'm going over my stats in PT and I'm a winner at every position (FR) after 5k hands of 10nl. What's funny is that when I clear the filters and run it through all levels, I've made almost as much in the SB as I have on the BU. And I'm generally pretty tight from the SB, folding to a steal around 87%. I know it will probably even out a bit as I go, but what the hell... I felt it was noteworthy. |

Played 1k hands today and ran just barely over break-even. Lost 3 BI when my Kings ran into Aces, I paid off a set, and then I got sucked out when villain luckboxed 2-pair on the river chasing a flush. But I managed to grind back just as much as I lost so it's all good - win rate is down a bit but the bankroll is not. |

What is your training regiment like? And how do you plan to procede with your goals? | |

Your avatar is seriously disturbing. Even iopq's ladyboys are better than malnourished crack adicts. |

Ok. Apology accepted. I haven't played much 6max and when I have it was with mixed results. It's not that I'm a FR nit or anything (14/10) or that I'm not aggressive enough (2.8 AF) for 6max, I just haven't felt the itch to make the switch. I might mix in some SHNL some time down the road but for now I'm content with FR. |

Good thing you are working yourself slowly back in shape, and its very smart to talk with your brother in law before training to vigourously. | |

I didn't mean just eat less but more so limit my portions and don't over-eat... and yes, of course kick out the sugary foods and drinks. If I can do that I'll drop a few pounds overnight. Probably just do some light jogging and biking with some light-weight/high reps upper body workouts. Getting started is easy though, sticking to it is the hard part. I should find someone around here to do a prop bet. :P |

Here's another random thought. I need to learn how to fold. Holy shit do I need to learn how to fold. My post flop play is atrocious at times and it's not because I'm stuck in a tough spot. I make spewy bets with over-pairs and top pair without even attempting to put villain on a range. And I realize that downswings at uNL are not the result of variance but rather horrible post-flop decisions that turn into tilting. |

Phew, I climbed out my rut and grinded back my losses from the past few days. Got the roll up to $672. Played ~100 hands at $25nl for 3.5bb/100 just to get my feet wet. Grinded some 10nl the past 2 days and everything is back to normal. |

Had the day off due to some electric problems at the office so I put in a healthy session of 1706 hands at 10nl for 8.29bb/100. Bankroll updated on first post. |

Yeah, I realized that and I have been working on squeezing more value out of my hands, like betting the river more. It really helps when I can narrow down what villain has and what he'll call with, obv. I'm slowly getting better at it. |

Ok, time to leave August and 10nl in the dust. Hopefully I won't be back. Setting a stop loss at 5 BI @ 25nl just in case I hit a run of bad cards or I happen to play like dog shit. |

Congrats man, It'll feel good to start raking in $50 pots. 25NL will probably be the biggest jump so far, but there's loads of fish and the regs mostly suck when you get some info on them. | |

Thanks Carroters! I haven't had time to really play much the past few days. Only ~700 hands in @ 25nl for 4bb/100. I renewed my subscription at Grinder School (for the full membership this time) and Spenda's vids are f'n great. |

Hey Nutty, had a quick look over your op and looks like its all going along very nicely. Grinderschool is the nuts for micro/low vids, helped me out of the micros in no time at all. I find 2-4 tables perfect when moving up limits for around 5-10k hands. GL crush them 25nels sir!! |
