cannot withdraw thru bankwire for ftp so now im stuck with a 7300 bankroll on stars (cant believe rakeback/fpps made my br grow LOL)
now i have to make a decision to stick with stars and its constant hate for filipino players. i will 24 table once again but this time play my old game 2 years ago with a lot of new things ive learned in 3bet/4bet pots and postflop spots ive learned from my coach (who now works and cant coach anymore coz he's too busy) i really felt i kinda improved somewhat so the last and biggest leak of mine is my fear of variance and results oriented nature. 3 years and i still think of it the same way (the wrong way obv).

tbh id be happy just to breakeven at 100nl and collect rakeback monies and be rich like dannyohboy,wojtaspolak and hugadas lol
its sick coz i used to compare myself with guys i played with 2 yeasrs who are big winners at 200nl now haha

my situation now is this:

7300br - but need some withdrawals montlhly like 500 perhaps (can be covered by fpps easy)

50nl like .6 winrate over 300k hands
100nl -3600 over 600k hands
25nl close to 2ptbb over 100kplus hands

i dunno what to do anymore and what to learn next but here's a couple:
- postflop with marginal midpair/ weak redraw type hands played aggressively against the right type of opponents si something i should try to implement from time to time esp at 100nl.
- note taking other regs who have very consistent patterns which i can also try and exploit

all in all i think ill just fucking 24 table and grind 1 zillion hands and sip iced tea in boracay when the years over lol
too tired to worry about shit i cant fix

learn a different game. Any game. It doesn't matter if its something insane like badugi. You'll be having fun while you do it and as a result, you'll think through each spot more.

A side effect of this will be money flowing into your account.

i think stars admins think of me this way:

" damn this guy is sick, hes been losing steadily every month and just goes on and buys unnecessary and ridiculously expensive shit via concierge at the end month, how does this guy even pay for lving expenses???"
