Hey RunItOnce Community,

I'm a 21 year old guy from germany who recently finished school and played poker for quite a while now. I'm now free until late summer with basically nothing to do, so I decided to make this poker thing a full-time, serious job. My poker background is mainly Heads-Up, I played up to 200nl on different sites quite successfully. Anyway, I decided to switch to 6max on Stars, currently trying hard to beat NL50 Zoom and not get crushed too hard :D
´
My approach to this is pretty disciplined, I play at least 2k Hands a day and I'm wrinting a journal everyday about my mindset, my game, my mistakes and so on just to keep track and actively improve on my game. I'm also analyzing many standard spots, aswell as big pots with CREV to get some insight on what the optimal frequencies roughly are. I'm not using GTORB or PioSolver, since I think its pretty much unnecessary at NL50 Zoom. I'm currently struggling to find out, how I should be approaching NL50z, as I still think I bluffcatch way too much.
Also, analyzing my DB everyday, I do a few things which I adopted from HU, like cbetting not enough probably (idk about that one though) and x/c'ing with too many A Hi's on boards I should be cbetting.

My overall stats so far are: 25 | 19 | 7 | 49 | 59 | 47 (VPIP/PFR/3B/F3B/CBET/FCBET)
Positional RFI stats are pretty standard I guess, with the exception that I open way too many SB's because the NL50 population folds their BB way too much imo.
Also, my AF seems pretty low as it is at 1.97, AFQ at 43. Therefore, my WWSF is at 44, WTSD at 22, WSD at 66% (samplesize probably). River call efficiency is at 1.97 so far.

Anyway, enough of the boring stuff, this is the NL50z graph so far (ugly, isn't it?

My goal is to get the effin green line to the top! Samplesize is laughably low though, so I don't start doubting myself too hard yet :D
Plus, after analyzing the hands it was clear, that basically all big pots were coolers or setups or suckouts. (besides 3 or 4 where I bluffed into the top of villains ranges)

I'm gonna post some hands right away just to get this started!

I don't really like this one in hindsight, I think overbetting Turn, overbetting diamond rivers would've been better? My thought process in game was that I'm not really betting any ace there for value anymore so my range is polarized to basically flushes or nothing. Although I dont really know what sizing I'd use with my sets. Might be a smaller one, which makes my range uncomfortably unbalanced. Also I thought that he doesn't have too many diamonds in his Range OTR with me blocking the Kd. Also not blocking any spade made this bluff pretty attractive for me. Looking at this Spot in CREV, I get way more than enough foldequity, thinking that the avg NL50 player's calling range is restricted to flushes OTR.

So this one was played against a 14/9 Nit, so I decided to x/c this Hand in these positions against this guy, which might be a mistake already. I think b/f seems fine too. River is kind of unfortunate, but I talked myself into a call, thinking his range would be exclusively KQs, QQ. Probably not even all KQ's tbh, and bluffs. I think the call OTR was pretty bad against this guy because he won't be able to show up with too many bluffs there probably. I completely discarded KQo from his range, so it was only KQs which I block and QQ or some ATs. Anyway, I think the call was bad after all, simple as that.

So yeah, I think the post is quite long already, I posted some of the hands I played pretty bad imo to get some more insight. I won't be posting coolers/setups and this stuff because its not really interesting. Neither for you nor for me.
I look to keep this thing updated with new hands and graphs a lot, although I might experiment with not looking at my results in the near future because of my mindset, but I'll see about that.

Until then,
gl@the tables! (not against me of course :D)

*Edit: I posted the HH's as a picture because I dont really know how to post them otherwise. If someone of you guys could tell me, I'd be very pleased :D
