What's up! After much thought, I've decided to temporarily pause my $100K bankroll challenge. It's been a fun journey so far, but it's time to shift my focus for the indefinite future to some exciting coding projects. Not sure when/if I will continue the challenge. Time will tell ⌛

Current bankroll: $19,530 📈

🏆 Victory! 🏆

An extended break from the grind seems to have done wonders! 😂 I jumped back into action and took down the $150 CSOP+ Coinmasters $20k GTD tournament at Coinpoker last night. A much appreciated $5700 boost to the bankroll towards the $100k goal 💰💪

Sometimes stepping away is the best way to come back stronger (or to run better, of course). 🌟

I dag startet en av årets største og mest prestisjefylte online turneringsserier i poker. Som tidenes nest mestvinnende COOP-spiller er dette de ukene jeg gir alt for å kunne konkurrere på mitt aller beste. Siden jeg bor i Norge blir jeg tilskuer i år :(

[Norsk Pokerforbund @Pokerforbundet]

Vi har flere av verdens beste spillere, i en av verdens mest utbredte tankesporter. Trist at man skal bli hindret i å konkurrere fordi man bor i Norge. Vi trenger en debatt om poker og pengespill @Nettavisen @vgnett @db_sport @NRKno @NRKesp1

⏰ Hours: 261

🚨 Temporarily stepping away from the poker tables. Not gonna lie, recent results have been tough - frustrating, honestly. A break to reset and recharge is needed.

[TheDreamIsStillAlive @kdlsnsb]

🔄 Reset and Rise 🚀

After a tough weekend dropping 12 buy-ins, I took a page from Phil Galfond's book: a reset is not just possible—it's necessary. 📉➡️📈

These past sessions have been about getting back to the basics, reevaluating my game, and approaching each hand with a clear mind. It's not about recovering losses, but doing a proper reset, and embracing the new experience and growth each session brings.

Here's a graph of my past few sessions.

[TheDreamIsStillAlive @kdlsnsb]

@gazelligpoker This was assuming we don't split our bet sizes and instead build simplified strategies by using only one sizing, if that wasn't clear

[TheDreamIsStillAlive @kdlsnsb]

@gazelligpoker The EVs between emplying a shove or check strategy or small bet and check strategy on flop should be quite similar. Based on the intro text I assume we are employing a shove or check strategy. If so, AJ becomes a shove

[TheDreamIsStillAlive @kdlsnsb]

Well, that put a nice dent in the $100k challenge.

[TheDreamIsStillAlive @kdlsnsb]

I'll take it 🏄‍♂️

[TheDreamIsStillAlive @kdlsnsb]

Didn't win one pot >40bb tonight, but lost multiple 200bb pots 📉👀 Decided to wrap up early to review the hands, and turns out they were all solver-approved. 🧠✅ Back to the grind soon, but tonight, we reflect, we learn.
