I know this is a bit off topic and not quite about poker, but you can now get online Spanish lessons over here:

This is a site I have been working on for the last few months.

September and October

September went pretty well heads up wise started off playing $23 turbos and I realised the competition is pretty much the same as 11$ up to when stacks are around 12bbs deep, the guys at this level tend to make huge compounded errors like they would at 11$ like for example many 11$ guys would raise/fold 3x at like 10 bbs while at 23$ they would raise call even with a really weak hand since they have the pot odds to do so. the swings at 23$ were pissing me off too much so decided to go back to the 10 euros after about 150 games.

MTT wise things didn't go so well ended up losing around $150 or so which was actually caused by me playing bad and lead me to come to a huge realisation that at the middle stages of the game you should really try to maintain a big chip stack rather than playing just to survive and squeeze into the money.

This month started of pretty well but i ended up going on monkey tilt and started playing some $57.50 heads ups and ended up losing around 500 dollars, now i've recuperated most of it and am now  about $200 in profit for the month, pretty poor I know but thats how it goes sometimes. after analysing my stats and my situation, I've decided that gonna stick to grinding the 10 euro games where I have a much higher roi than at 23$ where I've had a 5% roi since june. so according to sharkscope I make $2.58 per game at 10 euros and $1.10 at the 23$. So even a retarded monkey can work out that from a pure profit perspective its better for me to play the 10 euros. Its probably the case that im really im good at killing fish and not so good ad killing decent players, whatever it is i dont do it for  the bragging rights I do it for the cheques, so from now on to the end of the year im just gonna focus on grinding the 10 euros and maximising my profit by increasing volume, I can comfortably 2 table them already but i want to eventually be able to 3 table then 4 table them and get in around 1200 games a month or so. for now im jsut gonna work on 2 tabling and trying to get in 600 games a month.

Updates!

Bonjour, First update for about a month and a half now. July was liek the wors tmonth in recent times, ended up being down most of the month untill around the last 10 days or so i ended up making it back and breaking even for the rest of the month. I felt liek the bad results were caused by me getting really unluck over the 1st few days then my game just went on a sidetrack and actually became worse.

At the start of this month heads up was pissing me the fuck off so I thought let me give mtts a try, ended up having quite a few good results at the 45-180 mans 10 tabling. this graph is my overall mtt results, looks pretty decent but only a small sample size.

I feel playing both mtts and heads up work pretty good since they both require different skills and allows you play larger volume because mtts can help you to deal with getting bad beats, multi tasking, endurance and that kind of stuff.

heads up wise, I've had a few sessions with cogdissonance and have seen some sick improvments in my heads up game. one of my biggest leaks I've found is that I don't focus enough on playing the style that most exploits my opponents playing style furthermore another realisation is that someone may play one style in one situation and another style in another situation for example LAG in position and Loose passive out of position.

This is the graph for the month

Playing: +$1113
Bonuses: +$100
Live Home Games: +$15.47(lol)
Total Months Profit: +$1228.47

Yeah so another best month for me, good to see that I am still making progress. I aim to be having +2k months regularly by the end of the year and I think I can do it if i keep progressing at the rate that I currently am and a bit more work on my game.



P.S.
Rick Ross is killing it these days

RAWSEEEEEEEE!

14 Day Challenge

I've noticed when i check my results on sharkscope and the cashier compulsively i tend to be effected more by short term results and it takes up valuable time as well pondering on how my graph would look like if x or y happened so in order to combat this I plan to not check either of them between now and the 16th

End of June

This month has been pretty gay in some ways but good in others. I started off playing $20 heads up again running really well for like 60 games or so, then everything started to turn upside down from there, suck outs left right and center, still managed to maintain a positive roi though. Yesterday I was pretty convinced I was playing Jesus himself  this guy would call any raise i made, so i decided to do a huge 3 bet with TT when he raised to like 50, I 3 bet to something like 300, flop comes something like 862, so i bet around 400 he calls, turn is a blank I bet again, river is a 3 and I'm all in, then he shows 63 for a rivered 2 pair? I mean where do these kind of fish come from? with all the bad luck I've had this month I'm lucky I've even made any money. Fish cause me so much stress sometimes, but I know I really love them deep down.

I wasn't able to get too much volume in since I was playing $20 an wanted to become more comfortable, now I feel more at ease playing them, if only I could have some better luck.after playing 231games this month I feel that there isn't much competition at the $20 so I I'm gonna move up to the $30 over the next few days whenever I feel like I'm playing good.

My aims for next month are to focus on putting in more volume at the $20 and move up to the $30 and hopefully if all goes well i can make some proper money.

Results:

Playing: +$390
Bonuses and Rakeback: +$52
Total Month Profit: +$442

LMAO!

This is how I'm running right now

I sympathise with you Phil I really do

JokerStars!

Seriously guys! this is getting out of control, poker is so gay right now, been breaking even for the past 60 games, today had to have been the biggest joke, played 10 won 5 lost 5 and in like 4/5 I lost I got it in with the best hand, im definatley feeling like I must be playing Jesus or El Golden Boy or something. These are like the most spasticated hands ever
