Weekend Update - Last Week of September - #The Final Sprint


Weekend Update - Last Week of September - #The Final Sprint

My graph is contrary to popular belief that weekends are the softest of the week. Unlike the expected 20-30bi upswing most people would like to believe ''actually happened'' quite the opposite.

With the influx of recreational players doing the most odd and peculiar thing, it was also the most tilting period of the week. Being unable to justify or reason why a player made a horrific play and beat you is very mentally distraught. All though I ran much below ev as the graph suggests

I'm not for one putting blame on just run bad; and in all honesty have played absolutely horrific in several sessions where I spewed uncontrollably. Sunday was particularly bad for me, the coveted "Red-Line" at Small Stakes Cash games is almost 100% due to me: bluffing much too frequently, value betting way too large, not having any of my big value bets called down.


One more week left in September.

Let's Review our September Goals! 


Volume Goals [x]
Tilt [ ]
Time Management [ ]
Profits [x]

For the remainder of this week I'm hoping to play as much A/B- Game as possible and keep spews and tilt to a minimum.

A particular thing to remember I think is, A-Game's tend to be a little more high variance than B-Game; due to the pushing of small edges. It is also worthwhile to note that as a grinder it's quite important to not only improve your A-Game as much as possible but also to improve your autopiloting-B-Game and minimize if not eliminate your C-Game.

With that in mind, later on in my sessions it'd be very beneficial to stray away from high variance plays that may be marginally profitable in the long run.

Good luck to everyone else ! =)

  1. Hi Danny,

    Its great to meet another player with a personality at a time where so many online poker players are too robotic. Your honest self assessment is refreshing to read and it is most definitely something that I could learn from.

    Good luck in achieving your 2013 SNE targets except, of course, when it involves running one of your sick bluffs on me,

    Radek
