Hey reader, thought i’d chuck in a quick update, its not been all that long ago so nothing spectacular has happened really, played approx 2.3k hands at 2nl and i’m 3BI’s down, 2nl really is about volume so there's not a huge amount of hands that i could post on here that i’m having trouble with, the average player there is just soooo unbelievably bad you’ve just got to get the hands in against them and hope that your ‘actual’ ev line stays somewhere near your ‘expected’ line lol.
In my case, sadly, this week it hasn’t but hey, i know that 6max is a swingy game anyways and playing it this low is bound to be more volatile in terms of variance, i’ve just really gotta grind it out to get my roll up to the $115 mark when i can take shots at 5nl, hopefully i run good when i get there as well :D
Apart from playing 2nl HE i’ve been playing some $2 PLO as well, not much, but i’ve decided to start mixing it up a bit to keep me entertained, also, PLO at the $2 level is insanely easy so it’s a good way to help build the roll, i’ll be the first to admit that i don’t have a huge amount of knowledge when it comes to PLO but i do know that a good place to start is to try and make sure that all 4 of your cards are working with each other, or the odd 3 card hand with a straggler, like 9TJ5 for example, the basics is plenty to beat $2 PLO though, so it'’ll hopefully work out as a good way to take my mind off the micro HE grind, who knows… maybe one day i might play only PLO if i discover i’m better at it.
So graph since the last update then:
Like i said, nothing spectacular, just thought i’d throw in a little update, my all-in ev graph is saying i’m running at about $6 below expected so i can take a little comfort from that, what i’ve lost playing 2NLHE i’ve pretty much made back playing $2 PLO though so its not too much of a disaster i guess.
Current Bankroll: $70.66
2nl BI’s needed to move up: 22
Got a bit of time off this week so hopefully i can get in a bit more volume and the next update will see me a bit closer to the $115 mark, i really hope i run goot lol
Peace out
You got this man, eventually you'll get an actual good streak of wins and move it up. I am still going to play about 2.5k more hands @ 2nl before I go up. btw, what are you buying into the 2nl tables with? 100/250 big blinds?
ReplyDeleteAnyhow keep up the grind
