fest_student Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 (edited) Hi, Have been playing semi seriously mtt:s for now, with a 15€ abi. I'm on a downswing for now, and lost the joy to the game for a bit. Decied to find back the joy, and thought that the best way would be to get back to the roots and start to grind the unibet 10€ 5men sng tables. The idea is to study at least 1h/day ranges and other strategies and play also everyday. In the beginning I will Olay only 4 tables at a time since its a bit different and faster poker from mtts. This challenge is following: start bankroll: 200 Games that ill need to play to pass the challenge: 1000 games I know that a bigger bankroll would be better, but if this challenge starts with a 200€ downswing in these games I'll happily stop the challenge. Interested to see what the result will be, or do we go broke before that. we'll see. wish me luck Edited March 25 by fest_student 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fest_student Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 Day 1 So day 1 in the books. Started the session with studying opening ranges for 5handed no ante some rutine work nothing special. Then played 3h. My game felt pretty good, did some bluffs that was bit unneccecary, but all in all I'm happy with my game. I felt really confident by my decisions. So getting back to the sngs was a positive experience. The field was interesting, so I'm excited to continue the challenge. Day 1 results Games played: 40 Result: +59€ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fest_student Posted April 3 Author Share Posted April 3 The challenge continues Been busy and sick during last week, so didn't play at all games which belongs to this challenge. Only mtts and some other drunk games with friends. Today I started studying icm spots in 5man sngs, and realized that I've been doing some mistakes before. Started the session with some drills before I started playing. Played for about 2hours and a bit over 30 games. Results of the challenge after last session Games played: 31 Result: 123€ Result of the challenge Games played: 75/1000 Result: 221€ This week it time to grind Moore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estzen Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 You might have a nice potential there- even at €25s - few days ago, I saw a guy calling vs 3bet jam with 52o! - What can I say, poker iz not dead, its so alive that its hard to believe that some just cannot make money. But of course, if most people lounge on a sofa, and hit it like a slotmatchine.. or jam waiting their next draw... where do we get... to the MOON!

GL.😂 Well mooving up in stakes is ofc the main goal, but before that i should play more since I’ve been lazy af with the volume😂 and yes, poker is not dead. And nice to see that unibet is doing solid work in busting chetars, since rta is nowadays one of the biggest threats to online poker. do you play SNGs alot? Would be nice to discuss the game some more with you or anybody who plays as a reg 10€ or higher 5handed sngs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fest_student Posted April 9 Author Share Posted April 9 Update: as mentioned earliwr, been lazy af with playing. Been sick and had a lot of other things going on. Tomorrow i’ll have a surgery, so will be off from work for the rest of the week so I’ll at have time to grind if I feel good. anyway been studying a lot of ICM solutions, and played today a few games before champions league. games played: 17 resutl: 83€ PROJECT UPDATE games played: 92 result:+ 304€ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estzen Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 @fest_student No I dont play much SNGs, but I play MTTs 25s, 50s in general and most supernovas every Sunday. Sometimes when I have nothing else to find, I play whatever SNG where most players waiting. 25s are like 10s and 5s in MTT strenght - to me at least seems like that. Pretty fishy pool. At the same time, its a bit another type of game. Never gonna grind it, but it can be an occasional sit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fest_student Posted April 11 Author Share Posted April 11 Update Atm recovering from the surgery, have anyway played the community league and a few sngs on the side today. After last update: games played: 18 result: +89€ Project update Games played: 110 result: +393€ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanWPl Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 wow , such a amazing results 😮 🙂 grats bro! i dont have idea how you do it :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fest_student Posted April 22 Author Share Posted April 22 Update Have played 98 games since last update, pretty break even. Some good sessions and some bad sessions, variance. Noticed that I usually tend to lose on Mondays (not today) since I tend to drink two days in a row on weekends. SNGs are pretty intensive, especially when they are pretty much shorthanded on unibet. One other thing which is different to MTTs is that in these sngs we go a lot more to the flop shortstacked. These are pretty new situations for me and need a lot focus, which can be difficult while being hangovered. Update Games played since last update: 98 Result: -30€ PROJECT UPDATE Games played: 208 Result: +363€ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fest_student Posted April 22 Author Share Posted April 22 UPDATE played 13 more games tonight, and decided to post the results directly (will do it from now on always even its been a short session, makes counting easier). I feel good about my game right now. Took today many screenshots from difficult spots, will later on try to figure out what would've been the right way to play those spots. Challenge update: Games played since last update: 13 result: +38€ CHALLENGE UPDATE Games played: 221 Result: 401€ 400€ mark passed, feels good 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fest_student Posted April 25 Author Share Posted April 25 UPDATE Played 45 game since last update, feeling good about my game right now. But ofc I'm running hot also. Games played since last update: 45 games Result: +104€ CHALLENGE UPDATE Games played: 266 Result: +505€ So, the 500€ mark is also passed, feels also good. Starting to realize that I took an ambitious goal for the volume for the challenge. Still 744 games left 😄 But I start to like this game format a lot, and I've also found a bigger motivation to study the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
