NL200 So Far.

So i moved to nl200 after playing a little more at NL100, sustained my 5ptBB/100 there.
within my first hour of moving up to NL200, i dropped 6 BI's. It was pretty sick, back to back coolers/bad beats etc. Between 7 hands of AA and KK, my Win at Showdown % was 0.

Heres a few hands from my short spell at nl200 so far:

Getting money in ahead is what i do best



The other hands are pretty much standard coolers of 4betting AA preflop, getting it all in on a 259 flop vs 55, or vs KK and him turning a King etc.

I played a small 1 hour session earlier, which went pretty decently, made about 150$, im gunna try put in some proper volume this week.

Cash Games so far.

So i've been trying to play some cash games recently, at the .5/1$ blind level, 100$ buyin. i've been 16 tabling these tables, full ring, playing about 1000 hands an hour. played about 16k hands so far in the last week or so, been playing sngs too so thats why i havent got 25k+, but this week gunna put in some heavy volume, hopefully 25k hands(25 hours ish).
Its going fairly good, running just under 5ptBB/100, which is 10$ every 100 hands, 1000 hands an hour = 100$/hr roughly, which is decent. I'm going to be receiving some coaching also soon and then moving up to 1/2$ 200$ buyin games where i hope to beat them, which will give me a pretty sick hourly. i think with the coaching + my own poker game i feel i can move up to nl200 without a problem, and hopefully after 50-100k hands of that maybe take some shots at nl400.

heres my graph so far anyway


running just about upto my equity in poker ev, which means im not running hot, or bad, just average, but im happy with that. im enjoying poker alot more also as its nice to actually think alot more compared to sng where there is alot push/fold mode going down.

Hopefully my next post will be my 50k hand graph, which will include some nl200, and i hope it turns out good.
