I didnt blog about January cause i played like 9k hands only ( exams took a lot of my time ). In February i felt like there were many coolers for my opponents.
HU:
But obviously im very happy with my results and i hope i will stay concentrated every time i sit down to have a session. ( and not just focused when im winning )

This month i was playing allright, but there was still time i could play better and more focused.
Bought glasses to computer, i look awful in them, chose the cheapest frames cause noone will see me in them except poker tables ;O but now my eyes can rest while im working
my friend is looking for a position within financial services industry in London. He studied in London School of Economics. Anyone knows anyone who could help him find his dream job?
for 3 days now i played with higer steal from BTN and SB; 2,5BB raise from BTN, trying to 3bet more from BB or call vs SB and raise good flops vs suitable for this play players, call more 3bets in position as i had before 70-75% fold to 3bet
here are my stats, 4 tables only as i try to think more lol:
changed BTN:
steal overall 35.5% now:
and i will probably start talking loudly to myself :O while in making decision process to make myself pu ppl on ranges t all the time and think consciously about every hand
some hands that were tough for me: ( i made stats visible in hands )
but still not sure if i can call this, i mean there are maybe some draws he can play like this ( like JT, QJ, maybe J8; A-hi FDs, but first: im not sure he plays them like this, second: they stll have decent equity, third: so many hands beat me: AJ/KT/KQ/QT/J9/TT/QQ/KK and he surely can play them like this cause there are so many draws and he doesnt want to see turn with his hand that is now strong ) so i shpould prolly fold it and wait for a better spot with this guy
it's a deep spot vs -7ptbb for 150k hands 3bettor and a reg, he leads weak, then checks so i decide to take a stab, i hope that reg called on flop cause he had either a draw like T9/56 maybe 99-TT and maybe some lower pairs like 66-55, when they both check on turn i assumed i can have a chance to take the pot, i guess reg can still have something and he decided to check - not to scare fish on the king
and here's a hand i dont know what im doing lol i should check turn or if i choose to bet i should fold to a raise lol i was prolly thinking that its so small i can call can maybe he can be bluffing or 'valuebetting' an ace ;o it's like i make a small bet cause i either wont win more on this or he has me and then when proven im beat i talk myself into calling cause it's a small amount, wtf :/
here's a rather simple spot, i think turn is a check vs an active player that wont prolly fold KX or AX after calling flop and it's like the worst he can have there
i thought he can have a draw at the time on the river, i have 17 hands on him and know only that he's a fish, so not sure if call is ok, maybe bet flop, tho i preferred to check and get value on turn from weak hands that won't call flop
on turn i raise thinking he has a Q and makes a 'pot control' bet and on river if he checked i wanted to make 2/3 pot bet, this river raise is ok right?
against a 59/32/55 ( 37 hands ) it's an optimal play? i can wait for him to bet 3 streets but if he has like KJ and an ace comes or an 8/9 it will kill my action so it seems better to raise and wait for him to shove
its a call right? tho he has very small aggression, he's too tight pf to have K7/K3, tho maybe it's nor totally excludable, some KX with high club? Ac7/Ac3?
after 1st april till now, mostly 6 tables, someties 4, sometimes 8:
i had 45% on BTN; in this month ( 40k hands in the graph above ) i changed it 35%:
and i play now 4 tables only trying to make as many notes as possible
i must srlsy butcher many big pots to loose like this over large sample or do you see some major flaws in my PF play from stats?
and i choose tables with at least two fish, so maybe i just donk know how to play fish lol

43/29/47 4 60 hands,
thought he can play his draws like this too and will bet them cause the guy behind is 66/35 for 100 hands, so since i checked turn he'd like to take the pot

45/10/54 6 80 hands
this river is a fold to min-r but i just couldnt do it and also i should bet more to make it look like a busted draw, and bet more on turn since there are so many draws and he is in possition so he will call a lot prolly
obv i have to have a very small edge ( yes, i still belive i have an edge over my tables ;o ) to have such a terrible run
and thank universe for 50% RB :O
i think my biggest flaw is that many times i fly on 'autopilot' insted of thinking hard on what opponent has, maybe i should play 30-40 min. sessions...
KK vs AA ( ai pf ) x2 ( 1,8k + 1,4k )
straight vs FD ( ai on turn )
TP vs TP lower kicker ( ai on turn, he rivers flush )
and lost two flips ( AKs vs QQ and FD+2overs vs underpair on 4bet pot lol )
but i'll back for my moniez... and they will wrap it for me...
(a straight, Three to Seven)
