my poker grind 2016

Posted 8 years ago

My name is Cory, I started one of these in the past but it didnt turn out so great didnt keep up with it much, so here is to a new year, new me.

I'm 25, been playing poker for a good 5 years now, online about 2 years, and man do I struggle with the game, playing way out of a bankroll just adding money on a site, not using my hud to my advantage. I got tired of losing money so 2016 is my year to run it up, I am playing on intertops under Otb_redbaron. He is my fav online player and I try to root him on as much as i can on stars.

So after having a talk with a friend and wanting to get better, I got notecady for my HM2, started putting together a hud and using it, actually really liking it and its helping in a lot of spots, I was missing a lot of value.

we started off with 27 bucks, at the time my poker limit on cake poker was almost up and all I could do, I will be grinding the 4nl and 10nl when my bankroll allows me, I am two tabling and found out that its perfect for me to do so, I played about 4 hours today and came out on top!! up 30 bucks, we are sitting around 58 bucks at the moment, pretty happy with todayAttached Image

Day 2 started out really bad down 20 bucks in a instant, ran 77 flop middle set into turn set of jj, lost a pot with AA vs AA vs 10 10, 10s hit a set on flop, but we battle backed to a 4 dollar profit, as we 3b with aks and 4b shoved up against a9 and we held, and then ran into some other small pots, and booked a solid win for day 2, couldnt be happier!!Attached Image

As I am from USA and I had all other accounts before i signed up with poker vip and with the rake races and pretty much easy competition so far at the micro stakes I cant beat it,

I knew he had AAs, he overbets when nutted, way to go notecaddy for the help, but I wasnt scared to get my money in, I knew he didnt have a full house already because he is not limp raising with 2 tens, and with that turn i'm not scared to put all my money in.

Am I missing something here..?? You limp call a 3 bet with 64s then get it in with a flush draw with one card to come..??
