Poor TF

My months online has not really started, having gone a few days with friends. Even if I had a wonderful weekend with lots of live games, not much to say for the moment in terms of progression of this challenge, with just 3000 hands and 13 CG MTT ... Also, I would like to take this opportunity to return to a Final Table (poorly) played last week. And while reviewing this TF to draw something, as much as I do with all of you ...

The TF is of course the most important moment of the tournament, one where we should concentrate fully. Many inexperienced players relax instead, happy to have arrived there and enjoying their joy. Yet this is where it all begins, so far nothing had not really matter ...
You just play for 4 hours, nearly 300 players have jumped, it's beautiful. The passage of the bubble, you have recovered 1.5 times your buy-in, big deal ... Since the bubble, you have played at least an hour, often more, to achieve this TF where prices are beginning to be worthwhile. If you lose now, in 9th place, you collect 5 to 6 times your buy-in, 3 to 4 times what you would have taken the bull ... Not bad, it was worth it to apply a bit to go that far. This will fund your tournaments of the evening, maybe even some of those tomorrow. Plenty to be satisfied, no?
but guess what: If you earn 4 extra squares and finish fifth, you will collect 3-4 times more, something around 18 to 20 buy-in. Reach the 3rd place and you will double the gain, it is 32 to 35 buy-in that you tend your arms! ... As for the victory, it is usually more than double the 3rd place, you can expect to earn the right to replay the tournament a little over 70 times, enough to see it coming ...

Nothing very interesting, everyone knows to do in the first 3 MTT to hang a lot! I just wanted to remind that a ratio of at least 12 / 1 sanctioned lack of ambition and the fact consider TF as an objective in itself ...

Even when it was fully aware of that and we are determined to give everything now in this final stretch is so important, it is still necessary to adapt to achieve entirely new context begins. Many factors make the task complicated
- We just play short-handed, sometimes for long enough, and it returns to full-ring.
- The position relative to players with whom we played in the semi-finals has changed completely, either because other players have come intercalate.
- We have played with half of the table, the other players we are perfectly unknown.
- We do not know the objectives of each other, even those with whom we played in the semi-final: This very LAG player in the semi-final he will continue playing only victory, or Will it settle down on the contrary, very sensitive to significant levels offered by each site won? This shortstack who left to die there reached his goal and he will now try everything to get back into the game, or will he instead go to sleep, hoping to win one or two places?

A council is to systematically clear look at the other table while playing his semi-final, to begin to take notes and analyze future opponents. Another important aspect is how to shift gears from the semi-final, especially if you were very active, to take the time to calibrate the opponents and understand each other's goals. Not so easy when you have the habit of attacking 2-3 of 5 hands. Yet unless a very large stack, it is essential otherwise the wall almost guaranteed ... The last point which I think is important is to take the time to define what will be our goal and our strategy in the TF, according to our stack and our position at the table ...

And now, back then on that last-TF, where I have not been able to make all that ... Well, I have extenuating circumstances: It was the day after my victory in a € 10 rebuy who had seen me go to bed around 5:30 am, to turn and look back, unable to sleep as after every win this game (before the mischief-makers do not tell my place I know, this happened to me fortunately not too often ;-). I was flat that night, and I also had the insight to play no big buy-in, not throwing that about 20 € in the early evening, persuaded him not to go too far and going to bed soon ...

But now, the famous variance is still there: Often we play well and we jump in the first part of all tournaments, so it is not unusual to go away sometimes playing poorly ...

is indeed what happens in this 20 € HS (6 max) 270 players. After mounting a huge stack at the start of the tournament (I take the chip lead after less than an hour of play or nearly tripling with KK against JJ and A10), I play in "I'm exhausted and I have chips, "which translates roughly by: I raise a hand on both, and I 2 or 3barrel almost every time, preferably when the BB is a calling station to station calling ... I come anyway to save a piece of stack to get to 3 tables, and decided to time to stop the bullshit. When we reach 12 players, all players on my table have a similar carpet in the 200k, and I will be able to arrive in TF with 800k, is the largest carpet in my penultimate table. Of course, this came at the price of a sustained pace assault extremely ... The TF

opens, and I have no idea who are the 2 players from the other table. That nerd, but tired and still not convinced of my ability to perfer tonight, I have not even thought about opening another table ....

The first of the 51 hands (only) that will last my TF has no interest but I will book to define the forces at work:



Here is a stack that does not go unnoticed ... And I take it just to the left, not good, that ... Hopefully it is not too painful anyway.

I let you discover the hand 3, which is played terribly wrong in more ways than one. I raise first mechanically button, after all I just do not stop for half an hour ... And yes, forgot the second great principle: Know how to shift gears at the beginning of TF ... Nothing makes me go test the chip leader and his 2.6 million chips with a hand like 89o. Turn bet when I should let go easily my 3rd pair, right? Yes but now I was in a head table dynamics that does not let go, and I have no insight to realize that everything has changed with such a stack of a completely unknown player to my left. When he bets river, I say (of course, what else?) He uses his big stack, it is therefore necessarily biased bluff and my third pair kicker foam is super good about its tiles .. . I will still not let me pull a guy who has more than 3 times my stack at the beginning of time!



hand 4 has at least the merit of making me realize that the chip leader will never leave me alone, I have already greatly jeopardize my chances of a podium with these two shots and that I must calm down and think about how I approach the TF ...



But of course, there is a little late. Dropped to 10 blinds and smaller stack, a misery for our friend the chip leader, against which we have very little FE, I'll have to rely on luck to double ... For now, indeed need more strategic thinking: I'm going to push when I have a legitimate hand with the right amount of equity in the position where I am, waiting for the blow that I will double or out.

If the chip leader is very active and pays nearly all the reminders of my opponents, making everyone very cautious, it is however very patient with the idea of paying my skinny belt, and I manage myself and maintain or even grow for a few orbits with push respected:
- Main 109s 9 with the button
- Main 99 to 14 with SB
- Main 20 with the button
109s - Main 23 with QA high-jack

Hand 25 is as favorable as I enjoy a walk with 63. And here I am and managed to hand 26 with a stack of 425k (we are now 20k/40k blinds) or the third stack at the table, as you can see on the replay of the hand. However nothing has changed, there is always a simple strategy to push as soon as the situation seems favorable. Q8 to SB is borderline, but it is nevertheless sufficient to push a hand once again ... and enjoy this time it a nice stroke of luck, to the detriment of other players who would have liked to see one out ...



So here we are with this stroke of luck back to the starting position ... Phew! However, I feel absolutely no good ... If I know there is no question to reproduce the error start and I'll avoid reminders too marginal to be systematically punished by the chip leader, how should I approach this second chance offered to me ?

Should I play ultra-tight in resteal only, leave the cards to decide, and probably gain a few seats because other players will emerge in all probability before me? Where should I keep playing to try to attain at least the HU at the risk of leaving too early in a final where I now have a better stack than 4 players?

I can not decide ... And I play in between, without a strategy, not wanting to stop playing with 20 armored HS at a table but trying to take little risk to not be the first to go out ... It's never a good calculation of course, and it gives this example, by hand 32:



... or that, by hand 38:



Fine examples of play weak passive permitted! Or I play and I agree to take risks by playing aggressively, or I fold both hands, no shame in SB facing the huge chip leader if they decided they'd play for super-lock ...

I can not decide what to do ... And meanwhile, our stack decreases visibly, and nobody comes out ... If I restart, the other will call me, I'll be OOP, and if I spend all my hands, I'll be the last stack ...

Go, carpets that avoids thinking! Yet is it really reasonable when you look at our carpet over that of others, and knowing that not even the excuse to play to win in view of the mat CL? Main

48:



And the hand 51 (a player is released between the two) ...



And now, 5th, and a huge sense of mess ... Even after writing this article, I'm not sure what I should have done: Should I wait for one or two more players out of which slowed to about 10BB to move, or play all hands drinking thoroughly to try to catch the 2nd place (and even from time to time victory HU anything can happen)?

What I do know however is that my next TF:
- I will have seen the other table for the semifinal
- I take a big breath and forces me to completely break the rhythm bustle of the 1 / 2 final by stopping the raises marginal (for a while)
- I forced myself to take a decision on what to do. Better a bad decision than no decision at all! ...

month of November

The first quarter ends. Already. Time passes quickly decidedly ... On my very first post on this blog, I expressed my fear to get bored pretty quickly how to play poker. Well this is absolutely not the case. This does not mean that I am convinced that it is possible for me to do my main activity (unique?) In the long run, eh, let's be clear. Nevertheless, I am pleasantly surprised by the complete lack of sense of idleness. I feel very very busy: working, reading, grow, play, eventually it takes much time and leaves little room for glandouille.

Let us look at the mixed record of the 3rd month ...

terms of wages, it remains low, to 1576 €, while in progress compared to the previous month. But let's face it, with a final day at 2350 €, but this seems unlikely. If November was a month of 29 days, it would be a second negative month after that of September ...

After 3 months, so we show a positive balance of 1911 €, nothing really Folichon be, but what is very positive, however, is that the recent improvement portends better days to come. And yes, that's a trick I learned in my job before: When it is going wrong, always sign a new major customer on the eve of the Board ...

The other big positive of November, the volume of game I had trouble finding a rhythm on the first two months, being easily tired or overloaded. This rate, I really found this month by playing a lot, tremendously well, too, no doubt. In fact I totaled 205 hours of play on the months, an increase of more than 40% compared to previous months ... And the worst part is that I've enjoyed it, I do not remember being at no time went to play backwards. In these hours of play, it would add hours of reading, viewing videos, reflection, but I do not recognize them. So I have to pay attention to the risk of saturation, but for now, no problem that side.

analyze each month as the business and results of each of our business units.

The cash game online

A volume of gambling surge (89 hours hands and 35000, respectively +42% and +30% from the previous month). A bad result overall, although somewhat less catastrophic than the month of October, since I post a net loss of 670 € (the loss was from October 1457 €). The positive point is clearly improved at month-end, as shown in the curve of the Month:


After hitting bottom to € -1355, there clearly had a positive result back to the famous click. Obviously, this improvement should be confirmed in December. I do not set specific targets but they are nevertheless quite clear: I was down NL50 mid October "in order to quickly regain 36 caves" before climbing into NL100. So far, I'm losing by 26 wineries on the boundary, so it's 62 wineries that I have to return before rising a notch. Confidence is certainly fully recovered, but it still seems an unattainable goal in less than two months. We'll see ...

TLMs online

Again, a volume increase: 74 MTT played (cons 65 in October), in 92 hours (22 hours more than in October, which is obviously normal in view of far better results). The average buy-in was € 35.7, down 10% from the previous month, according to my strategy of caution earlier this month.

The most notable development over the previous month, is in terms of results: 21.6% ITM (against 18.5%) are completely anecdotal and irrelevant, the 5 final table slightly more significant (cons 3 in October - I do not count on TF satellite tournaments, not significant). And above all, the big difference comes that I could not carry on the previous 2 months: 2 perf significant, a 3rd place for € 1,150 and € 2,110 for a victory.

Finally, MTT online so I reported € 2,736 over the month, an ROI of 104% and a net gain of 29.6 € schedule. It's much better, and again, the dynamics is positive, the highest confidence, and I intend to keep going.

I actually thought I was going to announce another perf tonight, but my TF stopped at the 5th place when my A7 failed to address the K10 chip leader .. . It will, moreover, that I return to this TF someday because I had very difficult to define a strategy to adapt to its particular context, and I left in 5th place when I was the second belt (light years from that of the huge chip leader) leaves me a little taste Bitter taking into account differences in earnings between each place ...

game live

Even if I played a little more live in November that I had done in October, it remains fairly low:
- 2 with 1 large MTT (SPF 1200 € ), no
GTI - 2 S & G friendlies at 10 €, which I did 2 times the second, winning each time énormissime a net gain of 20 €.

The picture is therefore a loss of 1400 € for a playing time of 24 hours. It is of course also some significant than was my huge hourly earnings of € 245 in October, based on one tournament ...

I still think it will be impossible to draw conclusions from my results live in view of the volume necessarily very low. It must remain for me a pleasure activity that can also be the source of the "big shot" likely to be required for the success of this challenge.

So what objectives to December? Well as usual! Grind it into a cash game, it perf in online MTT, and we are pleased about 3 or 4 events live!

And why not try to replace the cash-game by S & G, Stefal wonder? I'll reconsider, but for several reasons it seems unrealistic:

- First, I do not take the same pleasure that S & G MTT or cash game, the blame for the optimal strategy the discipline of not playing (I caricature). It is true that I never really tried the HS, where the action must necessarily be stronger than S & G full-ring.
- The cure for the pros I think this sport is to play more tables. Unless I'm completely incapable of playing 2 HU at the same time. However, the HU is essential for the ROI, and if you play more than 3-4 tables, it is impossible to avoid the multitabling HU ...
- To generate a reasonable expectation of gain time, it is imperative to play at least 50 €, and perhaps even 100 €. Do we find enough tables to these limits on. Com? I still do not feel. Well, yes, I know there are ways to find solutions to that problem, ...
- What about the margin improvement? I'm currently playing NL50, which does not augur a gain schedule is very important, even playing well and in a time of opportunity "normal". But I consider this as an accident, and hopes to play again soon at the upper limits, with hourly earnings prospects far more important. And we can always dream and hope one day have the level of or NL600 NL1000. Whether to play S & G € 50/100 expect hourly earnings to close to that of NL50, can we limit up to the same extent? Is it possible to multitabling S & G to 500 € or 1000?

Without doubt we should dig this subject I know quite badly. But frankly, this does not motivate me more than that ...

Finally, thank you all for your many nice messages after my victory yesterday. I look forward to more such post in the coming weeks ...
