Hello all
I've updated you some time ago last on how I went from 25$ or so to about 7K on CarbonPoker And from a similar amount to about 10K on partypoker. Here we go again!
I went from 25€ to 11.000€ overnight on b2b poker (kickoffpoker is one of the skins for that site) you can actually still find me on the toplist. Currently in second place as Nohend

Thanks alot.
How I did it is just good timing, playing fewer tables and relying on reads and opponent capacities. You can't bluff against a guy on 025/050 but the same bluff could work 90% of the time against a guy on 10/20. Adjusting your game to first of all which stakes you are playing and also taking it further by adjusting your game to your current opponents, current position at the table and so on.
Yes you are correct, cashgames have proven far more successfull for me than tournaments as my total tourney winnings are a bit less than 50,000$
Bankroll management is non existant but the good part is that you're only down 25-100$ if you go broke. Detachment is quite important and keeping a frame of carelessness is quite powerful.
Yeah, you're the second player here I see doing such big winnings specially while playing cash games. You made it by playing PLO or NLH? Anyway congrats for the nice job

obviously I am not going to attribute this to pure skill I got unlucky in very small pots and lucky in very big ones!
As for poker tracker, no I have never used it and PokerOffice made my computer run way too slow for comfort. if any proof was needed; When I wrote the post I did also say that I was on B2B's current toplist in second place, clearly stating how much I was up for the 24 hours
Situation update: I'm up the €14K so far. However I'm cashing out 12k and leaving 2 to rebuild, next goal is to build a bankroll up to 100K
Until Next time.
------------ Just realized my typo in the OP. My nickname is nogrind, not nohend I guess I typo'ed because nohend was a guy who had a 275K stack on 50/100 a few years back and I stole the idea for the nickname from there.
but the good part is that you're only down 25-100$ if you go broke. Detachment is quite important and keeping a frame of carelessness is quite powerful.
hmmmm i'm not sure i'm going to believe this
