Back to blogging

My enthusiasm was fading in the last 2 months. I had great plans for 2014 and I feel a little bit disappointing about how the thing are going.

First of all I ended 2013 with a small profit at cash games and I cashed out the entire sum. After this I deposited on PokerStars right from January 1st with the intention to play for Supernova this year.

I intended to play 6-max SnG hypers starting from 1,5 USD with a decent roll (I thought), 150 USD.
After merely 1000 games  I was down 100 BIs with 60 BI's under EV (WTF is this EV when you analyze your decisions with ICMIZER?)

I've never experienced such a bad run so far and I felt a vacation is the best thing I can do. Perhaps a Live tournament can help me overcome this black period.

I don't know how Katherina or Andre can play these games, but I'm already sick and tired of them.

5k deal update: Volume volume volume

Apparently in my last blog post I was mistaking about the number of games. I wrote 0,8k games, but I observed theese days I reached this number only this week.

My bad :)

In the last month I played rarely, but every time I did it i was looking to play as much as I can.

For example. Since 1st of August I played 210 games (we talking about slow SnG's with 15 mins blind level) with 65 USD profit.

It's kind of a bad result since I consider this games very easy.

I intend to reach 1k games next week and close the first part of the deal. We gonna split the profit and move on to the next phase, 2k games with 60/40 cuts in the favor of the backer.

We will see how things evolve. My goal is to play as soon as possible 4,5 USD 180 ppl SnG's and MTT's.

5k deal: First update

It's been quite a while since the moment I begin playing sit and go's on staking and coaching. According to SharkScope, after 841 games I have a small profit and an average ROI of 10,6%. That's very low because the limits I've played, 1,5 USD KO 90 ppl and 2,5 USD 90 ppl on PokerStars.eu, are incredible easy to beat. The field consists in recreational players and weak regulars.

The days after a Micromillions boost

In the very first day of Micromillions 4 and I had two deep runs, which help me to boost my micro-bankroll.

This Micromillions series started incredibly well for me. In the first 3 events played I developed a solid game and I was able to make a deep run. If the Event #1 was a madness rebuy tournament, where I had a lot of bad situations and coolers, the other two events from Thursday were perfect.

I had a stack and time to play. In the event #3, 6-max NLHE, I finished 938 from more than 41k players, a good result rewarded with only 23,65 USD. But money wasn't that important. The morale boost gained after this tourney was the real prize.

In the same time I had Event #4, Zoom MTT, undergoing and there the things were all the time under control. At one moment I was even in Top 10 chip count, but finally I've ended up 92 and cashed in more than 100 USD.
