Hello again
So to the
game:
Well I decided
to make a deposit on the 25tᵗʰ December (Christmas resolutions?) of around 40$. I started by playing a couple of micro mtt to
get a feeling of the field and the game itself, (only a tournament at a time)
and that actually led me to a coupe final tables which nicely solidified my
bankroll.
Now to the
plan:
So though I
would say cash nl6max to be my favourite type of the game, I decided to
give it a try playing 6max hyper turbo sng instead. There are a couple reasons
why I did it, first I think it’s probably better to start a new format of the
game since I’m going to start from zero, then I think (not sure if I’m right)
it’s easier to study…?
Before I
made my decision I gave it a try playing a couple sessions of some variants of
the game: cash nl6max, zoom 6max and the 6max hyper turbo sng. One of the things I
noticed was that there is a considerable difference in the amount of regulars.
And after some research through blogs and forums I came to the conclusion that
I have enough information to give it a go in the HT. Katerina289s blog might
have been a considerable factor in my decision.
So I made
some study, defined my ranges and started playing. After a week of playing this
was what my results looked like:
Most of
times I get 4 recreational players to 1 regular at a table, most of times
recreationals are loose/aggressive, some loose/passive, and the regs are few enough that I can
review their game and ranges in the few time I have.
I won’t be
putting a lot of volume as I don’t have much time, and I only play 1 or 2
tables at a time depending on how I’m feeling. I must mention that I have a 9
to 5 job and though I’ll try to dedicate around 2 hours a day to game, I won’t
be able to do it every day. So my main study goals are:
- To study at least 30 min before sessions (review some hands, figuring out the regs hand ranges and defining and improving my own ranges).
- During sessions mark the hands where I have doubts.
- In the end of the sessions check those hands in ICMIZER.
- Keep reading “Kill Everyone” by Lee Nelson whenever I have a chance and feel like it.
Than my
monetary goals would be:
- To go up in the stakes (I’m currently playing the 3$ HT, I intend to move up when I get 101BB of the next level, and if I need, to move down if I get bellow 80BB of the current level).
- Reach 1k profit till the end of February.
I know you
might say it isn’t right to put a monetary number as a main goal, but truth is
I don’t expect to invest much in volume since I don’t have the time for it,
which leaves me to putting the best game I can in the few volume I’ll make. I
hope variance won’t go too hard on me.
Well that’s
all for now...
