2015 : From mediocre Midstake Reg to Highstake crusher 250k +

Hello everyone!

2014 has been a very rough year for me mentally and on the tables. I'll start this thread off with a short bio of my poker career. Started playing NLHE six years ago, around april 2009. I started off by playing nl50 Fullring and got coached by very successful feel player and started 6 max and HU. I was climbing the step very fast and by 2010 I was playing 2-4 and 3-6. I've made decent money since then, but never been really able to move up to the higher stakes. Always had tilt problems and bad mental game. I would quit early if I was up huge (10 BI) but I would play till my fingers bleed when i was down. Had a couple of -20 BI days wich are really really bad to have obv.

2014 have been rough as a started realising I was really really behind with the curve, and always was more of a feel player. Never really studied outside playing excepting reviewing some hands and analysing opp. stats, but no maths and such. I felt like my game was falling appart and that I couldn't beat the game anymore. So 2015 is gonna be the year I re-learn poker by studying the maths behind the play and hopefully improve my game. I feel a lot better knowing there's a pool of information and new stuff I will learn. That definitely feel refreshing for me as poker as become more boring over the years obv.

I always love playing a very loose and aggro style that use to tilt reg and made them make very bad play. My style was very exploitable obv, but I knew how villain would try to counter my exploit so I could ''own'' them. Nowadays however regs are way more balanced and sound so that's not working as much as it used to and people counter me more efficently (hence I'm getting explo more than I explo). I also love playing deep stack poker I feel this is my strenght as it's less easy to get a ''perfect strat'' at 250 bb deep let's say.

So yeah, basically in 2015 I want to improve drastically my math game and learn a lot of stuff about gto strat. My goals are to be able to beat zoom500 by the end of april and start taking shot a nl1k. Also want to spend a lot of time in those forums (which are really great btw!) and help others and post hands and strat etc.

So here's a list of goals I want to accomplish during the year :

-Play 1 millions hands
-Write an essay on GTO play
-Put at least 50 hours in CRev and GTO software
-Have a winrate of 4bb +
-Have a skype discussion group with good players
-Move up to nl1k
-OWN life

  • Weekly goals januare 5 -11

-Play min 10 000 hands
-Play 50% of A game in sessions
-Mark at least 13 hands
-Put my first hour in CRev
-Participate at least 3 hours in the forum RIO
-Watch 2 videos and write about it

Thanks guy hope y'all have a crushing 2015 year. Beast mode!
