Hi all,
This may be a rather long thread so please bear with me
Was interested in your thoughts and feedback. To give you an idea I’ve been in sales for about 5 years now hence I’m no stranger to goals & targets. It has pretty much become the way I operate. I struggle to play poker without having an end goal in mind. But don’t get me wrong, any end goal I have in mind must obviously be realistic.
I’ve limited my play to online cash games, always following the 5% bankroll rule. As an average, yet improving player, is concentrating on a weekly bankroll increase of 10% achievable?
I tested it last week, and to be honest I did play a few sessions looser than I normally would. I ended up with a weekly profit of 10.12%
To give you some stats:
Played 23 sessions
Profited 17
Lost 6
Total playing time 14.35 hrs
Started with $67.28
Ended with $74.09
Limit .01/.02
I’m happy with the result but feel I could have made a few bigger laydowns to avoid the heads up coin flips, EG all in before the flop with AK vs QQ etc
I also feel as time goes on and I move up from the micro limits I will slightly have a better return as I won’t be against so many calling stations or crazy hand situations. I understand that those situations will always be in poker at any limit, but should be a lot less at a $3/$6 against a .01/.02
Thanks for taking the time to read this, and appreciate your time and feedback in advance.
