Seems you've got a good bit of everything else figured out though!
Thank you sir
Yeah it definitely feels much better to not be running on 2 hours sleep

My grinding routine however, isn't because I'm in the wrong mindset or whatever. It's just like.. .whenever I wake up the first thing I do is turn on the computer and look at the tables to see if they're any good...

Fact: I'm more likely to wake up and start grinding for 2 hours rather than eat breakfast/wash my face.

If you want, maybe you could ask someone to upload it again and PM you.

But you'll prob have to wait for my next video if you wanted to watch one, sorry.

Re: I will make it to HSNL!

Grinding Updates:

Been a couple of swongy days since I lost posted.

Some interesting things happened:

- Some regular gets tarpped by a fish in a 6m game and I write in the chat "loltarpped"
- Regular says "lol ur face" and proceeds to challenge me to hu4rollz
- I accept even on 2 hours of sleep
- Villain plays super tilted until he sucks out on me. I was up 4bi or something before that. I play very stationy at the start cause he was tilting but he stopped bluffing me after that.
- I ended up only +0.7bi~ and decided to quit him cause I really shouldn't be playing on 2 hours sleep.

Swongy session. Had my AA (200bb) and KK (150bb) cracked everytime I slowplayed them vs his 3bet or 4bet.

Profit for month is on +$19.8k and +$22.1k after rb.
Bankroll is on $37.3k after cashing out recently to help pay for things.
188k FPP's. I need to play ~16k-20k hands of 400nl-600nl to get the $4k bonus.



HHs:

Grabbed by Holdem Manager
NL Holdem $4(BB) Replayer
Hero ($1,030)

(Pre 16%, Flop 91.4%, Turn 95.5%)

This was vs the regular.
Discussed it with a friend, and I'm not sure it's a cooler given villain's propensity to stop bluffing rivers vs me...
Friend thinks villain may just be shoving KK there enough for this to be a call.

Re: I will make it to HSNL!



Random question:
My goals in poker are more than just financial goals so I've been wondering lately about how people get into stuff like coaching sites or like getting signed with Pokerstars or something. Making it official and getting more well known or something like that...

Any idea how one goes about doing this?

Post a sick call down at nose bleeds or post a mega awesome graph in BBV.

Or be a leader in a community that PS is interested in (athene / chiren comes to mind)

Get noticed.
Get signed.
Boom.

Re: I will make it to HSNL!

1) coach me
2) i brag around in the bbv for a month how i know superpwn fishes due to triplerangemerging
3) You get well known
4) You get signed by coaching site
5) you give me half of $$$ due to getting you noticed by the bbv/nvgtards.

nah serious, prob just have to make a couple of vids, send them to some coaching site and maybe coach some people so you can prove to them(coaching site) you can coach. You start to get well known, win some donkament somewhere, then play abit of live tournos. And you may get signed

Re: I will make it to HSNL!

For a coaching site you probably just need to write them a letter and make a application video showing yourself playing etc.
As for pokersites they want people who have followers, so a big blog is usually the way to go. Or anything else that makes you outstanding and famous.
