Hi guys!

Some story about me:
I am 21 y.o. from Ukraine, now study in Saint-Petersburg.
I have been playing poker hard from February 2014. I began from Nl2 on PS then had some break and began again but sng's 1,5$ and 3,5$ I'd played approximately 2000 in 0$ and decided to play zoom. For now I'd played ~150k hands.

Why I decided to do this thread:
Some days ago had a huge downswing on Nl25 and my BR dropped to ~$25.
I understood that it all happened because of my indiscipline and inflated self-important (correct me if smth wrong).
Think this thread helps me to stay focused, disciplined and among all to meet new friends.

My goal:
I start fr NL4 on PartyPoker playing Fast&Forward moving to NL100 on PP(because only this limits on PP)
So i want to build BR $10,000 to play regular NL100-NL400 not only PP
My BR-managment 25BI for limit(250$-NL10,625$-NL25,...) if I go down to 20BI of current limit I go back to lower limit.

I will post here daily hands and weekly results.

I started 03/11/2014

Starting BR:$26,92

03/11:2528h +$20.27
04/11:2806h +$18.22

Current BR:$65.41

Good luck everyone

        There is some changes of my challenge.

        I did the plan for the next 30 weeks.

        So, my long-term goals are play 300,000 hands of speed,rush,zoom-poker SH(i play on PartyPoker) and to reach a profit of $5,000-10,000(I don't focus on money result,so it's what i want).

        And this goal I divided for mini-challenges for every week:
        1.Play 5 days a week excluding weekends
        2.Only 2 tables
        3.Only 2 session, each 1:40
        4.~10000 hands weekly
        5.Every weekends: analizing of my played hands, studying theory, watch videos, so raise the level of my knowledges.
        Will update this thread weekly.

        The rules for each limit as before, but think on NL25 and NL50 I'll do some changes,but first of all i must reach them.

        Good luck everyone.

        Let's do it!

        Week 2/30

        Current BR:$654.39

        The week was hard,because i have to study a lot in university.
        I played 9032 hands it is not my weeky volume but i have to study.
        Nothing interesting to show you guys.

        Have a lot of problems in psychological aspects, must work on them and my discipline leaves much to be desired.

        So my goals for the next week:

        1. Play 10,000 hands on NL25
        2. Super concentration on my game
        3. Do plan for the next day everyday
        4. Study,study,study....

        GL!
