Great movies LEX! Glad you could join us...haha.

Yesterday , **** yesterday I was recovering from the night before flu and felt good enough to play around 6 pm. I get stacked at 2/5 with another miss combo draw while waiting for 5/10. Nothing pretty happen , I peak at plus 800 for the day until I get dealt this hand.

Co raises 35 (700 effective )Bu flats (2k effective )hero in sb raises 175 (covers)KsKh co and bu flat

(535) flop 8d5s6s
Hero leads 225 co jams 500ish bu tanks jams 1725 total.


Not to concern about co but button was the huge spot. He can def have all two pairs / straights / and sets but also had every draw possible. I was confused except for the way and time it took for him to shove made me really fell he was weaker than stronger .

Hero calls 1525 more
We all agree to run it twice
(4505) turn 3s river 7d
Turn Js river 4d

Co show 7s7h
Bu show 5c7c
Hero show KsKh

Another fun spot to get scoop . Was a tuff call and sucks I was actually so far ahead esp on turn. I've been running really sour in all in but gotta keep working and grinding .

Keep battling

Your beats and coolers/setups are disgusting. Don't know how you keep fighting without a break or so. I'd lose my mind. Horrible. Now THAT is running bad.... KK hand and these past two hands. Geezes. Sorry my friend. I know how it feels. We all do.

Appreciate it . Ya it is coming to around a 200 hour downswing/breakeven . Even though I'm approaching 20k DS I'm still up for the year . Gotta battle through and it is not easy. My boy Matt helps me and I help him. I cannot wait for today to play!! Gonna walk eat gym eat play

Long overdue update, I am chilling at my place in Naples. Getting away from Baltimore for a little while, I rode home with a friend of mine. We stopped in South Carolina first for some good ole country golf. Finally arrived home Wednesday, board and lack of motivation decided on a goal. I wanted to take on the BEAST. Its a rake race held on wpn which offer some good incentives. I did some quick math and came up needing to grind around 70 hrs to make sure I'm top 3. I have hardly grinded at all this month and this will put me back on pace.
Started at 12 am sharp Friday morning and grinded throughout the week.
Played about 25 hr total 100 nl< 12 tabling. I ended the night in 2nd at around 14k points. Going to do 10 hr min a day next 5 days. #LEGGO

5-18

Another day in the books. I ended with around 6k points bringing me to number 1 by a few k. I cannot let up and continue to go harder then ever. Below is the graph and a few fun hands. Played for about 13 hours total.

Very nice perroww... keep up the work up.

Head down steady grinding. Keep fighting on keeping this open or closing it. I lerk 2+2 all day and should be doing more useful things with my time. I waste heaps of time need To schedule my day out. Almost out of 20k downswing Leggo! Back to grind

kids sick gl dustin hope you keep this thread up

I fell pretty healthy actually...

Watched few hands of your final table on WPN sunday. Good job!!

Hey problems I appreciate it. I end up making one mistake I felt where I bet the turn in a spot vs lift _me_up. I should def be checking back most of my range and cost me 1/3rd of my chips. Other than that I thought the field was pretty weak and I played well. First tournament I played in a while so nice to get a nice 4 fig score .
That said I'm officially snap the 20k down swing and now on a nice upswing. Took three week changing from 5/10 live to 100nl online. Not really sure of my plans at the moment . I'm two week above schedule thanks to that bink and need to decide what the best move to bank some $$$. I still have a place in baltimore where I can play some great 5/10 live or I can stay in Naples playing online and sharping my skills. Either way im thankful for making 20k over last few weeks to regain confidence and still make this year a turning stone .

6-13 goals

5 sessions 2-3 hours long .
25 pull-ups , push-ups, sit-ups
Avoid snacking and drink h2o


In about an hour, gonna be starting the beast . I will have to put in over 70 hours this week but def doable. I might be dabbling along side some sngs and mtts but we will see. Updating my website and most likely going to be posting a bunch of content on there. I hopefully can get the time to work on it. If anyone is wanting to make a few extra buck and really good gif maker hit me up .

Today started out great . Finish over 6 hrs before 7 am about to sleep , my phone goes crazy. My dad called needing me to come get him (2hr) and drive (3hr) to pick up a **** ton of animals from a good friend who passed away . Left at 8:30 am with no sleep and just not returning close to 1:30 am. I am dead tired and hopefully can recover a lot of play I missed today . My work is cut out for me Leggo!

you can do it.....just grind grind and then some more grinding....good luck!!!!

Well Sunday done. I got wreck this weekend in mtts and cash for about 2k total. I did final table two mtts but went out 8th and 7th . Good new I put in about 13 hrs and am 2nd on the points list . So as long as I don't lose to much more this week can still breakeven .

Slept around. 5 hrs ... Def fell little tired this morning. Gonna try to stick with this schedule today.

4x 3 hour 12 tabling session~
I been mass tabling all weekend except last session last night where I lost heaps. I wanna try to really focus today .

Smoke 3 Js ~ have a morning one and a Nightime one. I can have one in between when I need the urge . Gonna try to cut back on my smoking . I tend to smoke 1/4 a day or more. **** some days I've smoke every bit of a half .

2 hour family time ~ I am at home with loves ones and I havnt really spent much time except last week with them. This challenge is ruff on is all but they always make me my happiest.

1 hour Review ~ gonna do it before I start. Need to start review all hands .

4x 45 min I between breaks~ need to do Atleast 5 pull-ups push-ups and sit-ups .

1 hr One outside activity

I have a lot on my plate today , I really think I can achieve all this if I really try . Leggo Mondays

19 hours a day scheduled? respect but never going to happen man unless you are in fact an android

Been on close to that schedule for past month , hopefully can continue. People always talk about burnout but honesty I've fault through it for years . I have one big thing on my mind I want done and nothing going to stop me until I finish it !

Done for the day/night . Played over 10k hands and ended down around 1k. Felt I played sloppy early and got in the zone late . Will prob post weekly graph but my non showdown was good and stats looked good. I did 5 session total two I hit a stop loss .

keep long term heart health in mind
