back to basics.
well Ive gone back to just grinding the 2/180's Ive upped the volume to pretty good results. I'm going to leave cash alone for abit because I need to build my roll and I can achieve that quicker playing the 2/180's. I'm almost out of my downswing there thanks to 2x 2nd place finishes in 8 games. Need to work on my headsup game:(

downswing!
well just a short post because im being lazy,
Ive gone on a massive downswing at the 2/180s, down over a $100. not made a final table in over 70 games. Ive been told its just varience but fuck me the beats are shocking.
so ive been playing alot of cash tables, doing pretty well, I even was mixing in some 25nl tables with my 10nl, and doing really well. then it comes. Like it has every time ive moved up to 25nl. Lost 3 buyins ($75) in about 100 hands. I'll not bore you with the hands but lets say I got it in good and the river was awesome. I did tilt about $15 away so thats when I quit.
So atm my poker is not so good, will update more in the next couple of days
bankroll $950

500 Mark
500 2/180's that is. Not much to comment on really, I just need to keep it up and stop tossing odd games away when I cant be arsed to play. Over the past 3 nights reached a final table each night coming 1st x2 and a 5th. It didn't even take that much effort to as well, I really wish the 4/180s were turbo. I'm going to email stars about it! Anyway Stats below.
Played in the syndicate that I mentioned in a few posts back. I got nowhere, out pretty early when I raised preflop with AK the BB called then a short stack pushed all in, I shipped and the BB decided to come along with 33 the shit bag, he had me covered. The short stack flipped over AK and we didn't improve.
Its late so I'm off to bed night..

Great start to the month.
Well I'm still grinding the 2/180s at stars to great results. Since my last post Ive hit a 1st 2nd and 3rd finish and I really should of come 1st in them all. Ive made a few little changes in my strat also, well they where leaks. Ive stopped playing AQ all together early on. This is normally linked with me tilting so if I have a urge to play it then I know im beginning to tilt. Limping with suited connectors too just bleeding chips that I don't need to.
In my last session I played two sets of 4 tables. Which in the past haven't gone to well but im starting to get used to it now.
At the beginning of each month now I'm going to set goals to pass, hopefully this well spur me on to keep up the volume and interested.

- Play every 2/180 the same.
- increase volume to 16 a day.
- Keep taking shots at the $11 mtt @ stars.

...and back to blogging
Well its been quite eventful since I got back from Corfu on the 14th. I rang partypoker up to reclaim the bonus they so kindly paused for me. big mistake!
In the 1st night dropped $80 3 tabling .5/1 limit nothing drastic but I didnt feel comfortable continuing. So I withdrew my remaining $30 there and added it to my stars account. Thats been up and down too, it took a while to get itm playing the 2/180's but I eventually hit a 4th 3rd and 2nd place finish. One thing Ive noticed is my roi is starting to even out. I think because I hit quite a heater in my 1st 150 games Ive expected to maintain it which isnt possible.
I still have leaks that I need to plug in these like raising and calling with hands like AQo AJo/s early on. Just need to be more patient.
Over at www.raisetheriver.com Ive joined a $11 MTT syndicate either to play on stars or fulltilt. This includes playing a min and max of 5 MTTs over 5 weeks then all the profits are split. There are 11 fishys signed up so hopefully someone will score big. I nearly did last night came 33/4929 for $93.66 , I played really well and was only a coin flip or two away from a final table. I'm sure there will be alot more syndicates in the future so If you haven't already signed up theres always time now (nice plug)
Well since my blog description says micro CASH player and I cant be arsed to change it, I might as well give a paragrah to whats happening there.
Ive had a few sessions back at 10nl mostly while Ive been in a MTT and Ive done decent. scored 2 buyins last night. Ive kinda figured where Ive been going wrong, 3betting and bluffing. shock horror. The task Ive set myself is to only 3bet preflop with AA KK QQ JJ AK AQs. Theres no need to 3 bet lightly at 10nl because the fish at CO is a agro donk running 55/30/4. In the future If I ever move up limits I'll have to work on that side though.
Bankroll: $860

Last poker for two weeks
Well tonight is the last night for poker for 2 whole weeks. I'm going to use it to play some mtts that I don't normally register for.
ipoker: $5.50 $10k speed rebuy --->update: nowhere near cash.
10+$1 $10k freezeout. --> update: came 53rd for $33
pokerstars: $3.30 $50k rebuy. ---> update: nowhere near cash.
I will also play some 2/180s too. lets hope I hit a nice score :)
On other poker fronts ive started to play fixed limit bonus whoring. I logged into my partypoker account and found a $75 waiting for me if I reach 450 points. Ive already had $15 from that playing last night and this afternoon. Played 900 hands of $0.5/1 for a profit of $7 + the $15 bonus. so going ok there. With me going on hols from tomorrow I rang party poker up about the bonus, stating that by the time I get back from holiday the bonus will have expired. To my surprise they canceled the remaining releases and said to ring them when I get back and they will restart it. So I'm getting the $15 free :D
Anyway off win some mtts. wish me luck!
