Greetings!
As I understand it, here in the order of things, talk about your path in poker and ask for advice in difficult situations. Well, I will gladly share the traversed path and listen to advice for the future =)
I have been playing for several years with interruptions, and a bit more tightly in the last six months. I play mostly NL2, only there some successes, in fact, I reach :)
The first picture I attached my schedule Until September 1, 2017, the second picture - after, the third - the overall picture, but only on NL2. Then I realized the book I read Nathaniel Williams "Beat the microlights", and suddenly started to play better =) Well, more.
I began to understand better all these videos filled with YouTube, on which they talk about thinking ranges and why in some situations the opponent can proevel himself =) At micromolymes, all these judgments are not so pronounced, so it's easiest to play nitovolently, but still I want to climb limits (until my attempts are not too successful), and for this you need to improve your skills.
After the new year, my game got a little worse, probably this is due to the fact that I made a cache and my bankroll is usually $ 5, which for some reason quickly flies away, even if they grew to $ 15 =)
But this bothers me not so much as the fact that despite the fact that for most samples I have a positive win rate, my bankroll somewhere is flying away: D
I hope that the questions that I will ask will receive distinct answers, because the theory in general terms is good and useful, but to get an answer to the question about my particular game in a particular hand, on a particular street, against a specific opponent is quite another matter :)


So far it's interesting to hear if my schedule looks like how it should look on the microliths, or already on schedule, without looking at the stats, is there anything to argue?

I'll tell you a little about my :) My poker story started in 2011, in that far year, my friends and I decided to play poker for the first time, we really liked the game, we threw money and bought a poker set, from now on we would meet almost every weekend at a friend's house and play, 6 people on average, then we started playing online poker rooms, PokerStars, into free freerolls. To this day, we play poker almost the same company that stood at the source. But unfortunately we do not gather so often, as all have grown since then, everyone has their own worries

Hey man, good to hear you have improved! You can really see this comparing the graphs. First one was full LAG-Style allmost bluffing every hand i guess. Good to see you play your valuehands now :cool:

As far as the latest graph goes, you want to try and balance that redline. Overfolding in certain spots is crucial @ the micros. But you want to try to make a little move here and there. For instance 3bet in late positions more and steal or resteal by 3-betting.

Use your knowledge about ranges and apply it . If youre not blocking bluffs on certain boardtextures and runouts your opponents might have those bluffs. The other way around if you have the blockers but no made hand, and you know youre opponent is not completely brain-afk try and rep that made hand. Not too often, a negative redline is nothing bad, but yours is way to low. Just be a little cheeky breeky if you know what i mean :D

What gametype are you playing? NL2 Zoom or regular tables? Oh, and stats would also help!

Keep up improving, you are on a good way!

Hi Ivan, glad you improved to the point of winning. About your bankroll flying away i do this too (or at least did not so much anymore). Used to look at my results over a day and be like +5-10 but my bankroll was up only like +2 lol.
Yeah this was because after some time of playing my Best cash i started to look through lobby and find some interesting mtt don't cash in it so lose $2-3.. maybe in a day IT does not seem much but after a month can be close to $50-60 and If you never cash that's alot of your profit ar 2nl. Im not saying You are doing it too but you probably have some discipline issues like spin&go sportsbets casino and maybe like me just throw $2 in a daily mtt which is actually $60 monthly.
Good luck

Thanks for advices! You right, I'm not blocking a lot of bluffs, when I could and then folding on their bets, and now I'm gonna become a little cheeky breeky at those moments :D
About stats... What exatcly is important? Postflop? I would to improve my playing against some bluffs...

Dude, you're absolutely right: D I play some sweet knockouts, sometimes through satellites, but not always, and I do not always get a profit from it either:D


P.S. That is my stats.

Sorry im responding a bit late, had a busy day...

Generally speaking you want to take a look at your stats and your opponents in certain positions.
For instance preflop 3-Bet, Fold to 3-Bet, 4-Bet, Fold to 4-Bet use a tool like equilab (link below) to see how wide their ranges is in those spots. You can do that if you review your session, to get an idea on what those stats look like so you can make decisions based on them.
Postflop things like fold to C bet, raise to C-bet or check-raise on the different streets. Im goin to link you a site were you can read that.
Also Aggressionsfactor is important. It gives you an idea on how passive or aggressive an opponant is overall.

I cant really see the stats the picture is quite small.

equilab: https://www.pokerstrategy.com/poker-software-tools/equilab-holdem/
Quite a nice tool, you can also use it to study your euqity in certain spots. Take care tho, PS doesnt like it when you open it while PS is running.
