Why don't you stay at 50nl for a bit longer and take a proper shot at 100nl! You will most likely save time in the long run compared to keep dropping back down!

Jef147: Why don't you stay at 50nl for a bit longer and take a proper shot at 100nl! You will most likely save time in the long run compared to keep dropping back down!


answer to that question is cuz im following the advice of my coach, short shots 5bin shots and rebuild at 50nl if we fail.

im trying atleast this time like this again Smile im feeling good

@Jef147

1. Short shots are best

Let’s think about 2 different approaches to shot taking. From our sample bankroll management plan above we can see that upon arriving at $875 our plan is to take a 5 buyin shot at nl25. Our threshold for moving back down to 10nl is therefore $750. Let’s compare this with someone who has the same moving-down threshold but likes to take a 20buyin shot at the next limit.


Player 1 – Moves up at $875, takes 5buyin shot.
Player 2 – Moves up at $1250, takes 20 buyin shot.

So why is player 2 taking a 20 buyin shot? Usually players rationalise as follows - “I really hate it when my shots fail, I’d much rather save up and have a really good shot at the limit so it’s less likely I’ll need to move down” Perhaps this rings a bell on an emotional level, but is it actually strategically sound?

Well imagine for a minute that we only drop 1 buyin on our 25nl shot before going on a huge upswing. It wouldn’t have actually made any difference to us whether we were taking a 5-buyin shot or a 20-buyin shot. The main difference is that in order to take a 20-buyin shot we have to spend countless hours grinding at the lower limit, even though our roll is already in ok shape to take the shot.

Ok lets go!

I will start my session very soon.

Plan.

-5buyin shot , move down at 2500$.
-Play slightly tighter but stick to my winning strategy.
-Avoid high variance situations.
-Play 10k hands and break even to get settled in and comfortable with the new limit.

We can do this!

Damn, we started out so good but ended up losing slightly less than 1 buyin.

But i did not enjoy this at all!

Man those aggro monsters turn me into a frikkin passive nit, and even beeing a passive nit , they seem to 4bet me to get me to fold everytime i 3bet.

sitting here sweating, knowing i definitly am not playing my best game. what should i do????

I get to basicly no showdowns

Ok, new day today, well rested and back from a run, Caught some new pokemons so i am feeling great Laugh

Plan for today, stay to the same range as yesterday, avoid stuff we cant stand behind.
Play shorter sessions maybe mix some 50nl with 100nl Smile

I did make some calls that was questionable, i think not horrible but i still think i should be able to fold. we can do this!

Fold and save money!

Starting to get more and more comfortable playing at the new limit, i have a good feel for most of the regs.

Did we enjoy playing this morning? sure! it was fun! Smile lets end this week with a nice win this evening Wink GO GO

Should we be calling? i feel like in a multi way pot against that riverbet, he just isnt gonna ship a smaller flush, is he ?

Ok , the grind at 100nl continues im starting to feel more and more comfortable Smile

Last session before 2 days off, lets end this week PEAKING and feeling good! Laugh

what have we learned sofar.

- Players fight more for every pot
what does this mean? its a good thing, we just play abit tighter and value bet more, bigger bets for value and smaller bluffs.

- some regs seem to have big egos :D
what does this mean? it's a good thing, we just dont let them get to us, they are gonna be hanging themselves Smile stay strong.

I find it abit more 3bet and 4bet heavy.
how do i adjust? We dont 3bet and 4bet bluff as much, we play smaller pots we aim to play IP and let them do the betting.

I guess thats alittle bit, probably more,

Note to myself

-Trust your gut, FOLD , we save money where they dont Smile
- Bluffs have to make sence or they simply just dont work Smile
- Always have a plan for the hand.

LETS GO!
