I bubbled the Wcoop Warmup, ongame Major and the late 888 100k yesterday. To add to that i came 50ish in the ipoker-Major and Hotter44:-(

 

I am still facepalming at a keyhand in the Hotter44. I was onetabling at that time and still messed up my sizing so bad. Need to bet 5k more on Turn and ship river. With that sizing i handcuffed myself. Villain was a solid reg, i have no idea why he doesn't cbet. I doubt he has alot of kings in his Range, since hes cbetting kt+. Can only see ak and tt+ not cbetting and being able to call a riverjam.

Had a similar start to the year with couple of "big" scores of 600$ and 3k when starting with 0 deposit. But after that have been just throwing money away and I am taking a month of poker and still 2 week to go.

I have been wathcing the videos and really trying to work on my mid game... Since that seemed to be the part I have the most problems. 

good luck on the games and your blog.

I've been playing mainly MTTs now for 2-3 Years with decent sucess probably running way above average tbh. This year started off great with a 6k score on Winamax early in January, but ever since I got nothing going and am down 20kish. Which is no disaster, I knew it could happen especially when your edge is not huge, you are bound to go through larger downswings. 

My goal for this blog is to find at least one hand per day to post and evaluate. I do think there is still alot of edge to be had in MTTs, but I think for me the times of 20tabling midstakes and printing moneys are over. Its also something that I don't get much joy out of anymore. 

 

I got inspired to start a blog after watching some of Andrew Brokos videos, i like his clear analytic ways:-) I will start posting Hands tomorrow or Monday, right now I'm writing on my notebook where I don't have HHs. 

 

Anyways, I hope my english is ok and maybe if I keep at it with this blog I will post some more personal stuff:-)

Hopefully I will make a deeprun tomorrow, which seems to be one of the best Sundays of the year with Scoop.fr, Wcoop and FTOPs, very exited for all of this. 

 

For now I will close with my favorite Summer-Song, since the clocks are changed tonight, and I am very excited to leave the dreadful past few months behind me and start a new age of crushing;-)

Somehow I can't do links since all the popups for links/media pop up blank... 

 

PS.: I never wrote a blog before, so hopefully I will improve on making it interesting the futureheart
