I was about to post I felt so good about my whole journey so far at NL400. But the games are just so swingy at NL400
I have been staying at Dustylove for a couple of days now and we managed to put in a lot of grind to say the least. I beat a new record by playing over 6k hands in one day! So so far have I played more then 10k hands this month! I guess I will beat all my records for hands played this month.
However as far as results goes I am not very happy. I have played NL400 the whole month and it really feels that the games are tougher. I started of very quickly and won 5BI. Then the variance decided to go nuts (plus I played bad in some pots) so I lost 10BI in like 1k hands.
When I came back to the tables I felt I really had an edge over most of the players (not the toughest regulars but a lot of them) and I think I played well. I went up the 10BI I lost and there I was 15 min ago. But instead of quiting (as I planned to) I played a couple of more hands and lost like 7BI in no time (some coolers, some bad beats and some flips - most against really really bad fish which hurts even more).
So excluded RB etc I guess I´m down a bit more then 2BI which is a pretty bad result for so much grind.
What have I learned?
A lot of small stuff that will improve my game a lot. Most important though is that before, I saw most of the players as "good", playing a bit too careful against them as a saw them as better then me. After some input from Dusty however I see a lot of faults in most of them so now I view a lot of players as "bad". I just need to improve my game so I can take advantage of those errors!
Can I beat NL400?
I have tried once or twice before and failed, and variance is tuff, but I actually think I can beat NL400! If I can run good/not bad for a day or two, so I can get a role that can handle the swings, I am pretty shure I can pretty soon become a NL400 reg.
