Bankroll challenge
I gave my word not to comment on certain posts so I started a new one to answer you @1warlock. Doug says he wants to be a guy who does what he says he'll do. So he's finishing the challenge. It seems he loathes poker now and he went ballistic with people continuously criticising his strategy. And with other beat down questions like, " why arent you on Pstars? ( He's in Vegas)
My own comment is that it seems the game he can beat is .10/.20 cash.ha
He keeps calling allins correctly theory wise and Villains are always nutted. Haha
To be clear, he has taken some huge bad beats too.
He calls this his final chapter in poker.

This is not going to be good for his business. I honestly have no idea what he's trying to do here but it doesn't sound smart. He could get off the felt completely and still run his training site as they have achieved a pretty solid base. Blowing up at the micros is about the last thing I'd ever want to do in his shoes.
No idea why he would hate poker or care what people think about his strategies. He still crushes online high-stakes cash and does well live. Let them criticize all they want while they keep funding your retirement
I've said it before and I'll say it again - there is almost no place for GTO-based strategies at these stakes. Its foolish to even try to balance any part of your game against these populations. Its exploit for maximum value all day, every day. Its horrible poker according to theory but its also the only effective approach. Take your bluffing frequencies and toss them out the window because you are lighting money on fire with them.
I'll be perfectly honest and say I do not do well at these stakes at all. I have a hard time forgetting everything I know and just play face-up poker. I'm not supposed to call these people donkeys or fish but that's what they are. You can't beat a donkey with finesse - you must value-own them with a totally unbalanced strategy. It drives me nuts and I simply won't play these games (or free sites or low-limit live) anymore. Not worth the aggravation for a few dollars when I can grind higher stakes and not want to lobotomize myself.
BTW - just saw you on top the Champions Leaderboard last month. Well done. If I may ask, what are the 10-categories that they score? I only played a few SnGs and maybe 1 6-max session last month and somehow I'm on there (way the heck down but there). If there is a multi-disciplinary board to work on, I could get into that. I need something to motivate me to practice here.
Good explanation there.
@1warlock
Yip - it was there, buried in the threads. Thanks. It would be good it some of these things were put into an index somewhere for easy reference. There are lots of questions and its not easy to find answers here without direction. Anywhoot - too many things to play I think for me. I think I'll stick to the SnG's and 6-max and just work on a few things, like how to crush souls.
