Vegas!

Hey Gang,

Gonna head to Vegas in a couple hours to hang out with a big group of friends. Hopefully I'll get a chance to put in decent volume at the 2/5 and maybe 5/10 games at the V. Anyone that's in the area feel free to leave a comment so we can get in touch.

Hope everyone has been well.

Cheers,

Ugh.

Hey Gang,

So I started Friday completely crushing and ended the day at +730 over 5k hands. Came home around midnight to fire up the tables again it was just a disaster. -740 over only 2800 hands. I ran terrible but that included some really sick coolers (set over set, runner runner BS).

Awesome Friday Afternoon:

So far I am running 6 BI below EV. It just feels really sick because when I'm not getting sucked out on, I'm just getting totally set up which just makes things that much worse. Great start to July.

June Results/July Goals

Hey Gang,

Hope everyone has been well. Let's start off with June's goals.

75k hands at 100NL/200NL - Success
Study more through vids/sweats - Success
Become a rakeback affiliate? - Still working on this one.

June was sort of a downer at the beginning of the month but then I decided to get some coaching to get myself over the hump. For anyone that is looking for a good full ring coach, you definitely gotta look up Damn Ringer on Cardrunners. This guy is just really good at helping people plug leaks as well as giving good insight on really common spots that trip people up.

I have also been using my down time on watching FR vids on CR, mostly from Rask, and have been really helpful. If you aren't already, check out the videos on CR and it could definitely help add to your overall winrate.

The topic of becoming a rakeback affiliate is still in the works. There is just so many things that I have to learn before even considering doing this. Hopefully in a few months I can get this venture off the ground.

As I posted above, June got off to a pretty crappy start. Breaking even for the first 50k hands was just like a kick in the nuts. I'm sure everyone has experienced it so I won't go too much in detail about the ugliness. The 2nd half of the month is when I got some coaching from Damn Ringer and after a few sessions with him, I see 100NL completely different.

The major adjustments DR has helped me make was to open up my game more and attacking when the time is right. I'm still getting the hang of it but each day I feel like I am getting better. Needless to say, I hope to be at 200NL in the near future and hopefully crushing.


OVERALL:

+3100 over 97k @ 100NL, 1.58BB/100
+1350 RB

GOALS:

75k hands at 100NL
Take shots at 200NL
3BB/100

Hope everyone has been well and good luck in July!

Cheers,
