I'm trying to switch to 6max towards the end of the year and probably for good. I'm finally so tired of vpp whoring and not improving 20 tabling - there's just too many of us there now and I feel most new regs are a lot better doing that than I am. Starting to watch some old dc/cr vids tokeweed gave me a year ago. I'll be posting some hands only in my blog coz it feels a lot more personal.
hand 1:
villain is a standard tag/semi-nit, folds to aggression in 3bet pots and runs 18/17/3.5 and 4%3bet, nothing special but I did win some medium pots against him

no history but I'm really clueless how these things go in 6max, FR I pretty much call like the fish that I am for fear of being reshoved with a set, or nut fd plus overs, 6max is obv more poker and aggression so I just need to know if raise/calling his turn lead is good to do

im just thinking about it now... i get 8800 in milestones plus fpps, granting i just break even lol
if by some miracle i pull off a W then better. any advice on people who play tons of hands? i havent really done 100kvpp in a month, maybe like 85k at best which was just one time and i got so tired and burnt out after. im planning to do it at 100nl. you think odds are good enough to go for it?
sometimes is better than absolutely nothing it seems for me. no complaints though, ive been rebuilding my roll and shooting for that 3k milestone this month and if i really get into a nice groove and finish hot before november ends, might even go for a 100k vpp month next month just to get my br back to 20k which will be epic since this year ive done so many retarded things and tilted/emo'ed for months and months which i really can't afford to do being old and all lol. paid for all my debts practically before i started rebuilding and it feels good to finally be debt free again. id like to personally thank handbanana21 for helping me out rebuilding, i will not forget jlost88 and yadadameen21 if ever i quit poker and find something else to do after this year. stocks is doing so-so and i haven't really gotten into it seriously yet, maybe next year. how the fuck do i make paragraphs here btw?
i hope kevin can sweat me sometime when i move back up to 100nl, how about it kevin? :D
gonna play 200k hands in 20days just to get back into the grind. been slacking alot last month coz i got so affected by 2buyin insta coolers every time i started a session. so now im moving down to 50nl and just gonna clear that 3k milestone and re eval after if i leave site or continue. gl me
im trying out this whole trance thing (im old lol) for grinding music coz indie rock tilts me to no end lately. help with suggestions, artists, albums, where i can download like playlists etc. i liked that armin van burren "sail" thing when it was posted here.
so far i only know, tiesto and armin van burren, i dont want old stuff but def similar sounding artists/djs would be great. thanks in advance to all you young people!!! lol
