Ok, im on a little bit of a down swing, down 10bins, last session i lost my flips ran into KKvAA twice and lost with AA vs KQ all in pre ( flop 345 , Q, K ) lol

i have also made some river calls that i wouldnt make if i played my A game, it has been stuff like Top 2 pair vs bottom str8 and set over set, but it was situations i could have gotten away from losing a total of 140€ less.

Note to self going into this evening session,

Stick to what we know.
Bluffs have to make sence.
Trust your gut and fold strong hands when we are beat.
Running bad happens to everyone lets lose less than what other regs do

Lets just crush!

bankroll 3.2k

Damn This was a tough session, but we made it

Too tired to write anything else, ill just post this evenings graph and a fitting video for it

Great recovery ..i find myself I sessions like this a couple times a week its a ball ache getting it back

Agreed 😊

Haha the perfect video - what got you out of the hole?

wasnt it

It all started with 66 OTB , MP opens 3x we flat , BB makes it 12bb MP calls we call, flop comes J 8 6 with 2 diamonds, BB makes it 22bb MP calls , we shove BB folds and MP calls with AJ , dead to running FH ( 250bb pot ).

then we just started hitting and getting paid.

Ok, had another coaching session with weasel today, always super motivating, and now i know what to work on again

Always nice to see we are going in the right direction and at the same time we get something work on to improve even more.


This evening i will be playing abit fewer tables and get back on track

Lets go!

Yo,

Last few days have been pretty rough, been a mixture of losing most of our flips getting coolered and also a couple of misstakes.

Gonna put that in the past focus, play alot of hands.

Noticed in the session with weasel that i have been slipping abit back to old habits , calling too many 3bets, this is going to be easily fixed.

And i have also been defending too wide from the BB , this is the biggest misstakes that iv been doing lately, so lets focus on this

Hello guys,

The rough run continues, and my mindset is starting to slip.

I do feel like yesterday i played my best poker sofar at 100NL, we ran into AA with KK and lost 2 flips QQ v AK and AK v 10 10 all in pre, and i also had alot of other unfortunate spots.

Even after all this , we only ended up losing 1BIN wich is a very good thing, but what tilted me was that we were going to book a win in 2 sessions but i lost huge ones close to the end both sessions.

I did also rage quit ( took 30 min break ) after making a stupid 57€ call OTR ( this was when i was stuck at most ).

So... so far at 100NL we have basicly been breaking even, BUT after yesterday im confident that if we can just keep up this game, we are definitly beating the game if not CRUSHING, just give me some run good!



Why am i getting angry about varience?

- Fear, i fear the thought of moving down to 50NL again ( Bankroll 3,1k )
- Had been on a nice upswing peaking at 4K and have been losing since.
- I have been losing the majority of the flips lately.

Why should we not get angry?

- So what if we have to move down again, we just rebuild and keep on going!
- Variance is good! otherwise we would not have bad players
- Losing flips is going to happen 50% of the time, wich is pretty often we are also go on a sweet run eventually where we win the flips


What am i going to change ?

-Basicly my focus on the money, going to try super hard to not think of the money.
-Stop looking in the cashier, and absolutely not check the graph mid session, just be aware.

While writing the last sentences i got a call from my Brother and he gave me a really good laugh always helpful

PS.
Writing down your thoughts like this is for me atleast super helpful, it helps me let go of the weight and it gets my mind back on track.

GOOD LUCK AT THE TABLES EVERYONE!

Great entry mate and just keep going! Like you say you are playing well enough it has just been variance mainly! Going to happen and it really wouldn't be a disaster if you moved down to 50z as you have previously and bounced straight back!

Like I said last night, trying to be just aware is perfect! We have to remember that money us the reason we play, so trying to ignore it completely is going pointless as if you do we stop focusing on why we play and why we want to improve.

I tend to look at my graphs and balance after my session as I know that then it will have no effect on my game but still reminds me why I play.

Definitely think his is your main weakness atm, a lot of your commentary on this thread is about how much you have won or lost that day which is the sort of thing you see on breakeven 5nl players threads because they are complete mental fish

Yo,

Happy with this evening session, kept my cool the whole time, i did run bad in the beginning but i kept fighting and it didnt bother me.
Couple of bad beats and we also ran into AA vs our KK again but still didnt get mad at any point this session, didnt check the cashier or graph mid session.

lets keep it up lets just have fun while playing dont be silly and get pissed off when the bad end of varience hits you, keep calm and fight! :)7

Gnight, lets continue tomorrow

Good Morning,

Feels like a it's been a while since i played a morning session, i do have good memories of Saturday mornings though

So lets copy yesterdays mindset and keep on grindin ? and add in some run good? sounds like a plan lets go!

Lost my flips this morning also, but no problem i was playing against whales, we booked a small win

We played good solid poker, going to continue now with the same strategy Mindset is good and i can feel the rungood in the air

Good to hear you're running good man. Keep the grind strong!

OK so last session of July

Lets make it a great one, focus on stuff that is important.

Play every hand as good as we can, dont focus on money just make good desicions.


Goal for tonight

Play 4 hours and feel happy about how you played when we are done. thats it
