Progress log, PLO 10-week transformation

  • Progress log, PLO 10-week transformation

    Posted by Oscargyllenberg on October 20, 2020 at 5:24 pm

    Hello everyone! Just joined the PLO Mastermind and I thought I’d say hi. I’ll share my aspirations which I promise to hold myself accountable to. I’ve been a winning hobby/micro-stakes PLO player for a long time and want to take my game to the next level. Thanks to soft live games I have thought of myself as a Semi-Pro but school and work took time away from grinding and I have not taken my poker improvement seriously enough to go pro (until now).

    My vision: I am a PLO mid to high stakes regular who is playing both live and online who gets to travel the world and enjoy the excitement and freedom of being a poker pro.

    My Purpose: I have a healthy obsession of optimizing my life. Teaching myself the patience and strategic skills necessary to become a pro excites me. I work on optimizing my poker game as well as life balance daily.

    First update of my progress log. Where I am going to mention a couple of things that I have done for my own progress in my first month of my new poker journey.

    1. Played a lot of poker hands (40k). Been able to thanks to being in between jobs and having a lot of time on my hands.
    2. Started using a HUD for the first time.
    3. Started the preflop trainer on discord. Use it every day that I play to realize better if the marginal hands are worth being opened from different positions.
    4. Joined a study group on Mastermind discord. Talk there quite often.
    5. Attended the live Q&A Mental game pod with Fernando and Jan. Got great in depth answers!
    6. Studied the whole 10-week PLO transformation program in roughly 3 weeks. Found it amazing and addictive!
    7. Started the “Crusing small stakes”- series. This has made me look at preflop in a new way which I think has helped me simplify my game and play more efficient.

    I can say that I really have a new understanding of the game in just a month’s time and it’s nice to feel that in most spots I know what I’m doing or know what I did wrong.

    Unfortunately I’m using macintosh and cannot access either the PLO trainer or HEM but those are things to look forward to in the future.
