Im really pissed now! No REALLY! Like 1.5 year ago, when i started playing, one USD was something like 1.8 LV(our national currency). So.. if u get 200$ u get 340lv which was like average salary here. Now 1 USD is 1.29Lv. and 200$ are 260lv. which is like HALF of the average salary now! So, what happened? The fucking USD is like 2 times cheaper now! And i get like 2 times less money for the same thing! So wtf after all the b2b network has a future??
Edit: maybe this is good for the EU economics but its not good for me!
Well wtf, just moved to play on unibet, which is also a prima site but it has its own tables in EU currency. So i started 100nl quite good - 3 days of playing and i was up like 2k EU. Than something WRONG happened and i dropped those 2k in 4 days. I just played my game all the time but my good hands were always vs monsters and my flips all lost. So wtf now im break even(or maybe worse im 1 bi behind) for like 11k hands. I think i should take a break after such big swing or something? Hands i can give for example are like this:
Well im not saying i lose money only on setups or outdraws - im sure i make mistakes too. The bad thing is that when i get 2 hands like the above in a row im getting really tilty, but i do not stop playing and put myself in bad situations(which is relally bad for me cuz i play 10 tables).
Anyways im really happy these days cuz its like 90% sure that i took my last exam for my first master degree and the only thing left is my diploma work.
I just wanted to start blog here @ lp.net so here am i. I think ill make my first post something like introducing.. so..
Im 24 yrs old living in Sofia, Bulgaria. I study mechanical engineering at the university here and try to play a lot of poker when i can. Actually poker is my main money income since ive started playing(like 1 year and 3 months ago). You may say wtf how the hell is this possible when u play 100nl - well its possible cuz the average salary here is like 400$ - so u can live pretty good life here with normal 100nl win rate. So ive started playing poker around November 2006 when i got lucky on some free rolls, collected like 100$ and with them started playing on 5pl tables in prima. At that time lp.net was already really big poker site and i could find a lot of information at the forums. I like the tight style of playing in the beginning cuz ive always liked to play 9-10 tables, and i play mostly tight now also. I have a very conservative bankroll management + i make constantly cash outs so im only a winning 100nl player so far taking shots at 200nl.
Now something about my current situation.
I have a normal to decent win rate at 100nl - like 180k hands i run like 3.5bb/100 so far. Thats not the case with 200nl ive been trying to pick that level up since January - no success there. Actually im getting pretty much owned there. Here is a picture of my February game on prima:
I will really appreciate any advice. Maybe some of you will share some experience with me about their way from 100nl to 200nl and what trouble they had there. Im really thinking to book some lessons too. Ive been thinking if i can qualify for myth's program if he run it again.
