It’s been a while since my last blogpost. After I returned from bali (which was a really relaxing week btw) I started grinding in our new apartment in graz. I’ve been running pretty bad and whenever I’m on a downswing I really don’t feel like blogging. After today I’m even for the month after 29k Hands which isn’t too bad considering how horrible i ran.
On Win2Day I seem to run bad since over 3 months. I just checked and I managed to make whooping 2k€ since November 1st on Win2Day which is a really poor result considering how bad the competition is. The main problem is that there is so little action that I just can’t get many hands in. I only played 40k Hands of nl400+ on Win2Day since I started my HEM-db in August. And we all know that 40k hands are nothing. The funny thing is that there are quite a few regulars there that consider themselves to be a „poker pro“ because they managed to win xxxxx€ from fish at limits as high as NL1k allthough they havn’t played much more than 300k hands of poker alltogether. I find it interesting how lightly many people take the decision to „go pro“. For me it took a pretty long time to finally think of poker as my actual job. Also I finished my bachelor in computer science in order to have at least something if the day comes that poker can’t be played profitable anymore (allthough I don’t think that day is going to come ever). I guess many people see the „easy“ money and think it’s going to be like this forever. I’m really curious how the pokerworld will look like in 2-3 years. I think it will still be possible to play profitably but alot of the mediocre winning players that are around now will be gone because they won’t be able to show a profit anymore when the games continue to get thougher. We’ll see, I hope I’m not one of these mediocre players

Here are 2 hands I played against one of the Win2Day regulars. The first is only to show how bad he is and the 2nd is nothing special but it illustrates well how I run at Win2Day these days:
I didn’t play nearly aggro enough to justify his offstack here
