Hey everyone. Last 3 month grind on BetVictor. Played 80k hands in November and went from 4nl to mix in 10nl.

Goals: 60k hands per month NL and start learning PLO.

Hey Fab welcome to the site.

Stats look just about perfect for the micro stakes. Any reason to learn PLO? The rake at the lower limits is insane and when building a role you may be better off sticking to NHLE for now.

Thanks Harvie.

Main volume will be NL. Goal is to play 60k hands NL10 in January.
I just like to become a good PLO player as well and will play PLO 4 mainly on Betvictor where the rake in micro stakes is lower than on other sites,and little bit plo 5 zoom on stars.

At the micros I don't think you need a 'bluffing range' to balance your value hands as players at this level are not thinking this deep.

The turn changes nothing and I don't expect them to fold any Ax hand if we bet, I'd check and see a free card, give up if we miss and bet if we hit. The 3h is not a good card to barrel as it strengths their range and makes it easy for them to call with Ax.

Good thoughts, thanks.

Played little volume over christmas, but ran good and played well.
Will put in more volume this week.

January Update:

Made my volume goal as i played 60k hands on ipoker but ran really bad and was tilted the whole month:)
Still even money because of rakeback. Played around 15k hands on other sites where i won a little.

I try to update more frequently now even if ran bad or play bad.

Stats look good overall but you might want to get your VPIP and PRF closer together 22/16 makes it look like you're calling too many hands. Would try and tighten that up to 22/20 or 22/19.

Solid performance and would be happy with that as a 60k hand sample goes. Can't win everytime and rakeback will always be there to help.

What is the other site you played the 15k hands on?I almost wana guess one with no rakeback maybe or a standalone platform?

Played on betvictor and little bit on stars. Thanks for suggestions on the stats, will take a look at that for sure.

This are all cash hands between Feb till May.

I switched over to normal tables as my winrate is much higher there as to the speed tables.
I had a nice MTT run in March and won a little over 3k there, so i have a nice roll now to play 25nl and a lot of the scoop low events.

Startet with 3 events yesterday(11$ and two 27$) but didn`t cashed in any of them.

Where have you been buddy? 3k score...what in? Tell us moreeeeeeee

Posted 7 years ago
Well,always told myself i will update later or tomorrow which is a pretty bad habbit. have to get better at it:)

The 3k score came from the sunday storm anniversary 1M MTT, where i made a sick run to the final 4 tables and dreamed about the over 100k first price:)
But very very happy with the over 3k score there of course.

This month i play a lot of the scoop low events and cash games on the side. So far i min cashed in two and had one deepish run on which i will update later:)

Cheers guys and good luck at the tables.

Scoop L1 11$ -11
Scoop L2 11$ -11
Scoop L3 27$ -27
Scoop L4 27$ -27
Scoop L8 5.5rb(16.5) cash30.48$
Scoop L12 11$ -11
Scoop L13 5,5$ cash 15,25
Scoop L17 11$ -11
Scoop L19 11$ -11
Scoop L23 27$ cash 41.75

made a nice run in the 3max pko event nr.13 with 20k runners where i lost a 80bb(430.000 chip pot) pot w AK vs K6s pre all in to finish in the 700 range and was a bit unlucky in KOs so only cashed for a total of 15,25$:)

Cash game:
Only played 10844 hands(-18$) so far this month, so have to push myself to get at least 50k hands in this month.
