  1. Good start, running considerably below EV on the PLO tables but shipped a 100x hexapro in the promotion for €500 so can't complain. 

    I've started drilling my push fold on gtowizard since it is actually my weakest game for sure and there are a lot of regs playing way more accurately than me at the 5-15bb level.

    It was actually humbling to see how bad I am at the spin n go format. When I drill the other formats I usually get 95-100% accuracy for preflop but at the super short 3 handed with no antes I am actually a whale! Good to know.. Not for long.

    Biggest loss:

    I cold 4bet and arrive at flop with 2.5 SPR. Considered potting it but went with half pot or check which sets up a 1 SPR on the turn which I jammed when i pick up a FD. would rather have an 8 or a 5 with my AA but picking up the FD and pair blocker is good enough to jam it I think. The guy snaps preflop and flop and then tanks turn. Some people.. NH dickhead

     No MTTs played at all yet but will get some volume in at some point.

  2. Long time no see after i raged off of the site after getting my bonuses blocked by support, but I'm back.

    Played on party poker for a few months and had OK results in the real name events but no major scores after a lot of day 2s.

    Span up a 300 deposit to ~5k but donked most of it off playing too high PLO after bad sessions (what's new). It was a decent spin but most of it was because they gave me 65% rakeback instead of the 30% max they advertise.

    When the rakeback offer ended and I heard about the unibet changes on the Chip Race podcast I figured it was worth coming back to unibet since they do seem to have their heart in the right place on the macro level.

    So far just grinding the low stakes PLO apart from 1 satty  1 freeroll and 1 PLO mtt.

    After an initial redeposit of £300 I've withdrawn the deposit and have left £200 on the account to try and spin.

    December goals: 2k profit, ship the nightly PLO tournament, no arguing on the forum

  3. You seem to already have all the table selecting and stats to optimise your profitability so I'd suggest improving your accuracy in regards to bet sizes and frequency.

    I've found the best way to do this is to study flop textures since there are a finite number of them and you can approach them one at a time and check them off the list. You're an organised person with your numbers/record keeping so I imagine it would come naturally to you. 

    BB vs BU & BB vs SB in single raised & 3b pots would be my starting point

  4. The good news is I won another UOS:

    The bad news is I didn't run good at the higher cash games when i took a shot (.50/1 & 1/2) and then played a C- cash game grind back at lower stakes because I was still frustrated. Not going to post any hands because I would be breaking my own blog rules 😉

    The MTT win covers the losses I took at cash with a little bit left to spare. And more importantly, UOS leaderboard top 10 is now back in my sights!

  5. I managed to punt a 30bb stack in the Titan with 6 left a few nights ago and went out in 6th, it was absolute ICM suicide.

    But what do we say to the god of punts? Not today.

    UOS Mid 39 is in the bag!

    I've had a rather low volume week but this will definitely get me motivated to play a big weekend schedule

  6. Will be playing all of the UOS low and some of the UOS mid. I don't know how a €50 rebuy is considered midstakes but there we go.

    One mincash in a mid UOS was the only MTT result. Happy with how I am playing though. Got some huge exploits off vs a few of the weaker MTT regs who never change their name.

    Played a bit higher than normal on Sunday at the cash tables since the pools were soft and booked a 2 buyin win to offset my MTT losses. Overall a profitable weekend without much volume.

    Biggest pot won:

    He donks turn for pot, I raise call and rebink. Extremely high level stuff going on hereimage.png.d71356fa0c388b4fedef3e2e40a5ad06.png 

     

    Biggest pot lost:

    3b pre, Opponent 1/3 pot flop and stacks off to raise (60/40)

  7. Gonna play the chip race MTT later and the Titan. I lost about £400 yesterday after I worked it out. It got to the point where people would just put the money in because noone had seen me win a pot.

    Some fun hands along the way so you know I wasn't BSing:

    4b pre all in on flop, gotta love the BB coldcall 3b with KJT2 and then call 4b. He knows I can't win a pot. Excellent fish logic. Too good.

    All in Pre

    pots2.png.006a49091a3c7f3b158e28931f07e737.png

    3b pre 3 ways to flop AI on the flop.

    Moving down to where they respect my raises.. All in pre

  8. So I lost all the money I made yesterday and more at the 50plo and 25 tables It started of -200 at 50PLO vs monkeys at keyboards.  Then the rest at 25plo and NL tables. I lost every all in I played for about 1500 hands. Cashed out full balance and taking time off. WTF? I am in shock.

  9. The blog rungood is back 😄

    Some hands:

    Biggest pot (BBs) It's nice to get a preflop spot with so much equity, very unlucky for the opponent we have such good sidecards with our AA vs their specific hand. We have 72.3% EZ game.

    potd1602.png.7373cba0aa0d90d91a004d0871d8a271.png

     

     

    Biggest pot (€€€) Took a 1/2 shot when I was running good and... continued to run good

    ppotd1602.png.45d207b75fc75e1ac949f08a29572003.png

     

    No MTT scores but my ITM rate has been consistent and just missing out on some big pots late in the tournament, no complaints here though. Setting my sights on hitting level 7 before the end of the quarter and looking to play 10% more volume in the second half of the month. Gl at the tables unless you're vs me.

  10. No blog updates as I have been busy grinding + have started managing a League of Legends esports team. Not as much spare time for complaining about how bad I run! 🤣

    Biggest pot was an absolute gift, he jammed turn over my pot bet after I x/r flop: wat

    potd1102.png.458ee6cdb0bc87988c355c22921669ca.png

     

    Biggest punt: after playing exclusively PLO I loaded up some NL tables and first hand I open rip 100bbs instead of raise (PLO tables have pot limit so i just jam for max and click raise). I've now adjusted my default PLO raise to be 3x so this should prevent it from happening again. -€25

  11. After grinding for a few weeks I have reduced my average daily punt count to below 2. Hooray!

    Biggest pot, I flat badreg UTG+1 open on button and then 4bet vs a badreg BB 3bet and badreg UTG+1 call. We have ~40% pre vs their wide ranges.

    Yesterday's punt:

    I 3b pre and just bet/bet/bet vs yet another badreg. oops.

  12.  I spent around €150 trying to get into one of the promotional jackpot hexapros (which I did). As the table popped open my client froze and it took me a good 4-5 minutes to get back in and have all tables open. I had around 16-20 tables open I think? And I have a brand new gaming laptop that can definitely handle the processing so IDK what to say. Don't open 20 tables as it might crash the client? After getting the client back to see AQs vs a BU all in I didn't manage to get the call in time. I finished 3rd

    The whole experience tilted me to THE MOOOOOOON and I blacked out and the next day I wake up with €300 less in the account. Samlife

    No MTT action this week for me so far, just a lot of early exits and mincashes.

    Running at 2/4 in pots over €100 (which is already an improvement on last month!)

     

    Biggest cash hand(cash amount) - €153.49:

    Single raised pot where I 3/4 pot the flop and get called by SB and checkraised by the BB. Not always a fistpump jam, but on this table it was. (We have 49.55% 3way so essentially + 50bb spot in EV)

    Biggest cash hand(BB amount) - 511BBs

    I 4bet pre and got 3 callers. All in on the flop gets 1 call. Justice turn card to drop his equity to 10%

  13. 0/4 in the final day of the winter series but still managed to come 5th on the leaderboard for 15000 bonus points. I'm very happy with the result considering I bricked all 4 tournaments on the final day.

    Bonus completed + the leaderboard prize boosts the bankroll for an extra €280.

  14. Only managed 1/4 cashes in the winter series and came 5th for a few points. Holding 3rd on the leaderboard with 1 day left which would be €300 but anything can happen.

    Biggest cash pot: I 3b pre and opponent donked for pot on flop and turn and shoved 2/3 pot on river. Not the best river at first glance but it actually was the nut river vs this specific opponent. Ez game sometimes.
