Introduction

Greetings everyone. In the first place i would like to thank Kurya (Carrega) for the opportunity to participate in this project in which i will try to be the most active possible due to the fact that i m still finishing my degree and also training Muay-Thai ( some of the MMA related articles will be coming from me ) with the adjacent physical component.
As poker is concerned I m playing NL25 at the moment , its not going very well to be honest as I have a negative balance of 8 buy ins currently , however I m up 16 in NL10. Recently I have been following a new bankroll management strategy where I move up limits having 35 buyins and get back down if I lose 10 or realize my game is not sharp enough. So as we speak if I lose 6 more buys back to the good old NL10 and grind my way up once again ( lets hope I don’t need to do so )

Now lets analyse some of the hands I played today:

The UTG raise of 5BBs with ATo was made with the intention of isolating Julmust6 which was by then playing 68/0/0.5 e had a CBet call of over 70% and in I have seen him misplay baby aces , middle pairs and weak top pairs ( resuming … he played most of the hands poorly ). The flop gives me the A and I bet 2/3s of the pot , standard. I end up turning 2 pairs which surely gives me the best hand now, 2/3s once again and here I think I might had got a call from a pot bet as he pays me off with any ace or even middle pair in addiction his call to turn CBet is 100%! The 3rd diamond on the river doesn’t scare me and so for the 3rd time in a row I shoot 2/3s of the pot and once again I think I might had bet the whole pot for the reason above.

Well preflop nothing to point out. On the flop i decide to lead with my flush draw and i get 2 callers , possibly a pair and another flush draw just like me . The turn is a spade and so i complete my draw , I bet a little bit less than 2/3s and I suppose I should had bet a bit more in here ... A 2,25$ would have kept possible draws and pairs in the hand and bulk the pot some more. I go to value town on the river and get raised ... Now here I go deep down to the tank knowing I might be against a flush , the question is higher or lower , I end up calling , the reason is that the fact the villain is more likely to have a low/mid suited connector than a premium spade . Why ? There was no preflop aggressor.

That’s all for today , my best regards to all of you readers
