10/14/2014 Day 1 – Deposited 100$ in my quest to get enough money (roughly 1300$) for a new PC in order to start streaming games (“The Dream”).

The first lesson I learned today = NEVER EVER PLAY ROULETTE

Lost 50$ at Roulette. Started out pretty slow since I have to get used again to playing multiple tables (did 12 for now). Standing on a 56.27$ bankroll at the end of the day. I’m not sure if I should be more aggressive than I used to be. One thing that I noticed is that people are 3betting way more than half a year ago, I have to adjust that.

10/15/2014 Day 2 – Went pretty smooth today, didn’’t play a lot since I partied last night like Dan Bilzerian, God damn though, it was a worth it. Met a cute Scarlett Johansson look-a-like on the bus today, went out and had a cup of coffee with her, meh.

Now to get on-topic. Bankroll added up to be 62.97$. I’m pretty happy about all this so far, played 17 tables today, I just couldn’t get a nice setup of 9 tables on each monitor because of the damn waiting list, felt like having OCD, one small empty corner was driving me crazy. Saw a lot of fishes on the tables, got some good all-ins. I’m playing on PartyPoker btw if you are in anyway interested.

If you have any questions, like if you want to see my graphs or anything at all, just feel free to ask.

10/22/2014 Day 9 - Hey guys, no update for a few days, I know, I know ..

Really sorry for this, I've just been incredibly busy with school and other projects, I did find the time to play some good ol' poker though.

It's been working really well so far, finally after a week of playing I got my groove back on, I'm really trying to play as much as I can.

So right now I'm sitting on a 108.35$ bankroll, nice eh ? Well the climb is real and I'm not going to stop.

Today, most of all, I had a perfect day, I called around 4 very big bluffs, got some nice money going there.

So here is the graph, redline went a bit low, gonna try to get that back, but I am indeed playing 12 tables so it's all going to work itself out :



And again, any questions, feel free to ask, gonna try to answer as best as I can.
Thank you and good luck

10/23/2014 Day 10 - Bankroll 145.86$

Managed to play 2 hours today, probably gonna get back to the tables a bit later tonight.

I did get a nice 25$ cash bonus for completing one of Party Poker's missions ("Win at our cash game tables with all pocket pairs in descending order, starting from A-A all the way down to 2-2.")

I'm gonna try to put as many hours as I can and get my bankroll fast to 200$ in order to move up to 4NL.

10/27/2014 Day 14 - Bankroll 158.20$

Didn't quite get to play a lot of poker in the past few days since I partied like crazy. But when I did play I got owned by ******ed hands ... like who the hell 3bets 78o OOP ?!? Hehe no problems though. Today I got a nice 9$ pot, Ahigh vs Khigh flush on the flop lol (kind of felt bad for him).

I just need to get a straight flush and I will get another nice 25$ cash bonus from a mission, can't wait to get to get up in stakes.

On a personal note, I met with my group of friends, haven't seem them in like 2 weeks, thats how all the partying started. University is going good, I only got classes 3 days per week so I can focus on poker and other activities in the remaining days.

What about you guys, whazaaaap ?

10/28/2014 Day 15 - Bankroll 168.25$

OK guys, I know everyone hates Mondays, but this one was just perfect. I had the wierdest dream this morning, even woke up before my alarm... I actually got surprised of how ******ed my dream was:

I was at the tables, just doing my thing, and all of a sudden I see AA in my hand and some loose aggresive fish just shoves 5$ before me (I don't know, seems like I dreamt I was playing 5NL, even though for now I just play 2NL) AND yes ... I was seeing stats, pretty stupid, right ? I called the guy with my aces and he stacks me with quads vs full house (yes, AKK flop, he had KK). I woke up instantly, sat on the side of my bed ... and started laughing, at 7 AM on a Monday morning. Seriously, I'm a very deep sleeper, sometimes I can't even hear my alarms, so I just laughed.

So that's pretty much how my day started, after which I went to school, laughed with my mates for about 4 hours constantly, it was just one of those good days, you know. Came home, played for like 10 minutes, won 10$. What else do you need ? Definately playing some more hands later on tonight, I'm very excited to see what's gonna happen.

10/30/2014 Day 17 - Bankroll 198.88$

Guess what ? I'm gonna move to 4NL, FINALLY! Well as you can see I'm having crazy runs, I really can't expect more from myself, I'm playing like a boss. I really hope I can keep this gameplay and mentality up on 4NL aswell.

Yesterday it's been the worst day out of the 17 ones yet, everyone was making their hands on the river, I did some bad calls, anyway ended up losing like 11$ and got down to 159$, but I got everything else back today.

I'm really curious what kind of adjustments I need to make for 4NL, or if I need to make any at all.

Gonna play more this weekend and I'll keep you guys informed

11/2/2014 Day 20 - Bankroll 216.99$

It was a pretty booze soaked weekend, I mean.. what do you do when you're 20 ? Party your ass off. Managed to play a few hands, not as many as I wanted, but still got a nice profit.

Yesterday I had a losing streak, again, everyone was just completing their hands on the river, calling even pot bets with a weak draw.. but they were getting the cards.

I went down about 5BI and stopped playing, took a chill pill and thought ... OK I'm going ABC poker, stop overthinking hands and just play. Went back at the tables, got everything back and now you can see I'm standing at 217$. Everything is going great.

I'm -EV overall with about 4$ since I won JJ vs QQ today. xD

Anyway, here's the graph :

11/10/2014 Day 28 - Bankroll 261.18$

Hey guys, it's been a while since my last post, had a lot of stuff to do. Anway, 4NL didn't really go as planned at the beginning, every single session I played was breakeven and I got a bit frustrated.

Anyway yesterday I did a sweat session with an amazing dude from my poker group and he made me see things in a different perspective. Basically I was not 3betting enough, or 4betting the light 3betters. This small change resulted in a massive upswing and things are finally going my way, starting to beat 4NL, going to grind it up until I finally build my bankroll to try 10NL.

On a personal note, school is going great, my classmates are just perfect, finally found something I actually really like. I'm studying Management (English line) for those who are wondering. All the case studies really make your brain light up and I actually learned things I can apply in poker (who would've believed that?).
