The NL is coming along. The DC vids help. PNLHE also helps. Have played about 2k hands since I decided to work on NL. Can't complain about the winrate, but i'm still playing crap in big all-in hands.

Decided to play a microsession before sleeping.

Quit after that. 5 stacks in 25 minutes. Thats pretty special even for me.

Good job quiting there. Losing 234539473249723 more stacks in another 25 minutes would have been sicker.

Yeah, the K5 hand 3-bet push on the flop and the TT push on the turn are ouchugalee.

1k nitty hands of 50nl +56
1 drunken session of 5/10 lhe +340

Poker is a completely arbitrary and nonsensical game imo

Week in review

Played about 4k hands. Up 420 at 50nl. 200ish at 3/6 lhe hu, and 150ish at 2/4 and 3/6 6max. Not bad.

Going to wait until i've logged a few more k hands of 50nl before i think about moving up. Sorta weird, but i'm more comfortable playing against the regs atm. I tend to make mistakes in extremes against the slightly donkish but not horrible players - either being too nitty or stacking off too light depending on my mood. Dont ask me to explain.

Will also continue with learning HU lhe. Think there's some massive massive edges to be had and its way more interesting than 6max.
