For the last three months I played a lot of poker on Stars with a 2ptBB/100 winrate (NL50 & NL100) and read a lot of stuff here, at LP.net. I have never been a poker genius, just a decent grinder with a dream of becoming a successful player one day. I have been fully concentrated on my game since mid November and grinded my roll up to 6300.
The other day I deposited $400 on Everest, cause I was staying at my friend's house and he's playing NL50 6-max on that site. I decided to join him while being there. Everest was my first room ever and the last time I played there was in August last year. Having in mind that I improved a lot during the last few months I decided to play there a bit. Games are a lot easier than on Stars so I actually did expect good results. At first I played NL50 SH until I boosted my roll up to $1k. Then I started 6-tabling NL100 SH and now my roll there is about $2750, after less than 2 weeks of play.
I honestly feel that it's the best time for me to finally build a good roll. Even though I have the Supernova status at Stars I'm not going to play this site for now, because I don't think I can beat the games there with a higher winrate than 2ptBB/100. I'm gonna stick to Everest for some time and grind NL100 until I reach 18k there. I know that's one strict BM rule, but I have to open up my game and start making moves and even now, despite having over $6k on-line, I'm scared to do it :[. Hopefully I'll stop playing 17/14 sooner than later and I'll switch to a more profitable style as soon as I feel totally comfortable with my roll at .5/1.
I'm definitely going to play at Stars again, but I'll probably start from NL200 there with a really decent bankroll .
To make this blog entry entertaining, here's a song:
yeah evt is pretty sick soft. dep 340 then 8 tabled 25nl there and in a week it reached 1500. beware of the downswings there thou, coz they come in long long stretches and can really make one tilt.
if poker is dangerous to them i would rank sports betting as a Kodiak grizzly bear who smells blood after you just threw a javelin into his cub - RaiNKhAN
