bump.

I m back in Malta after doing almost a full 3 weeks of running around europe and seeing family friends and gf. turns out berlin isnt as bad as i had remembered it (mainly for its ridic amount of parks, lakes and general 'greenery' but also for the food - and its price )

but it feels good to be back and get back on the horse tomorrow.

i havent done any grinding while i travelled apart from last weekend where i think i dropped $300-400 but i now am going to play on PS.fr, PS.com and ftp and have come up with what i think is a sick value schedule and finally a fairly big move up in ABI. i ve paid off all the debts i have had remaining from last year and am gonna play unstaked up to $109s and gonna sel action to the sunday majors. i ve also cut out each and every turbo MTT from my schedule results orientation ftw but i just hate them haha.

too tired to make TRs now but i have some fun pix from all the doings and goings i ve had in the last few weeks (open air festival and tons of sightseeing in amsterdam, and saw my siblings again that are the awesomest posers for camras i ve ever seen haha). will post tomorrow or maybe later

goals for every single day from now till july 24th (gf will come over then):

[ ] grind my full schedule across 3 sites (evaluate and adjust along the way)
[ ] finish my review w rdy2win, do a fkn review with grampa
[ ] exercize in some way shape or form daily (includes start runing for 10k in cardiff)
[ ] quit smoking ( -.- )
[ ] total of 200hrs+ (pref 250) by july 24th

daily routine will be sth like get up around 1pm, exercize, breakfast and prep food for the day then hopefully start regginf and late regging around 3pm and reg until around 10pm then grind it out and pass out around 4-6 am. rinse repeat for a full month then take a deserved break. hwile gf will be here i ll just grind weekends and to cheesy stuff the rest of the time i think but still pumped to get back on the grind!!!

hope yall had a good time and good luck at the tables from here on out

no way u can grind one month through! take atleast 1 day off every week or you will get wrecked sooner than later. gl with your goals, but rest is important aswell in MTTs otherwise u will get mad

Goodluck with your goals blakk. I only grind mtts on Sunday and if I had to do that every day of the week I'd kill myself, 5 min break, every hour for 14 hrs to bust for a min cashes is torture.

i d disagree bro. i m a weird guy in that i generally perform best after a short warm up period and then obv i d like to go as hard as i can. it so happens that in the end of july my gf will come around so i ll have a vacation then anyways. would be dumb not to grind my ass off till then. in other circumstances i d agree with u tho.

i probly am mad already

but i might take one or two mondays off depending on how my sundays pan out

u re doing it wrong

but thanks man, i guess u rly gotta dive into mtts to get to know and love them. doing it on the side can very much be torture.

------------------------------------------------


speaking of, my first two sessions have been pretty meh. i deffo am not playing my A+ game but i m also running pretty bad. keep bubbling and ftbubbling stuff on .fr and .com and got so mad at ftps software that i decided to drop it for the time being. had a few issues with both my hud and tableninjathat didnt make it easier but grinded my first full schedule today and absolutely love the pace of it. picked out the very best mtts and keeping the table count at or below 15 at all times. gives me plenty of time to make good deisions. made two fts today but couldt close them out

9th in the $5c with $1.3k ftw
3rd in the €50 progressive SuperKO 6max with €600+300 ftw

cashed the nightly €100 €30k gtd but could get deep in it. such an amazing MTT, gonna deffo play that daily.

thats it for now, will post graph tomorrow. month at roughly $6k

i recommend folding alot to my 3bets like today

how many tourneys your playin with your schedule per day? like 60 or is it more?

i find myself struggling with reggin after 3-4hours just because its too warm or i just got unfocussed somehow :/

btw. cool pics, always nice to see a face to the online grinders

FTP has issues with Huds for some reason I couldn't get it working with the double deuce but when I tried it on some $2 thing it worked fine.

Winamax might be worth checking out. I shipped the warm up on stars.fr at start of the month so that my fav site atm. They have a micro series next week the high roller and main look work checking out.

think i had u first time at the tables. was a 5q with 40left or smth... SN like on 2p2 tho atleast on .com

yeah cuttin turbos is always a good way... and for the FTP issue, there is HM forums which will help you (atleast it helped me with HM1 and MTTs which were not multi-entry)

Tbh I prefer the avg Monday to the avg Sunday. Sickening variance fests those massive fields are. Another reason why .fr is so awesome. Most fields are in the 200-800 range

+1 ... monday >>> sundays

atleast if u dont have a superhuge bankroll and dont care about the swings, mondays are best for variancefree printing

Yea I agree with you about field size thats why the euro sites are decent.

I just play cash the rest of the time Sundays have the big gtds which keep you dreaming of a score.
