Hi all!

I didn't play that much this week because I started renovating my office I played one tournament namely it was two day main event but only for Slovenian players. I made final table and finnished on eight place.

I played main event day one and some cash games at the same time which was not good idea. I didn't focus enough on cash game tables so I played bad and we see this on a graph.

Results:
- playing sessions: 4
- limits: NL 60, NL 40
- studying hours: 2
- hands: 3.105 + one tournament
- profit: +353,27 $

Goals for this week:
I will not play because I have to finish renovation office I will post the results next week ��

Hi all!

It's time for new update. I played decent poker with bad volume of hands. Again I did better on NL 100 than on NL 60 but due to low sample could be just variance, also orange line on NL 60 tell us that I ran bad. It is tough to plan how much I should play this week because I am working afternoon .

Results:
- playing sessions: 5
- limits: NL 60, NL 100
- studying hours: 1
- hands: 4.002
- profit: -26,87 $

Graph:


Goals for this week:
- play 6 sessions,
- 5k hands,

Hi all!

First of all - happy new year and good luck at the tables to all of you!

It's been a year since I started writing a blog here, so it's time to post yearly rewiev of 2022:

- words:
It was very tough year. In January I lost my job over the night and it was stressfully situation even if I got new job in 14 days. February and March went okay but then in April I was scammed for 4,5k $. I was off the tables for almost a whole month. In May I didn't play a lot because of my 30th birthday. Over the summer I traveled a lot (I should in 2020 but due to covid everything was delayed to past year) so volume of poker was very bad. The worst thing happend over the summer is that I got an allergy at work. Everything itched me and it was very difficult for me to cocentrate on and off the tables. I had some problems with my poker agents too - another very stresfully situation. In October I changed the agents and I renovated my office. November was okay and in Decemer was a death in the family.
However-tough year but I survived it At the end I visited 6 new countries and went on 9 Iron Maiden gigs. Due tu allergy I didn't study enough but I am very motivated now to change that.

Hi all!

I was studying enough but could be better. Most of the time I was reviewing hands, but in this week I should doing more on strategy. I had a really bad session on Wednesday after then I was playing less tables and focusing more on the right moves. That's why I didn't reached 9k hands (It was 7k). I made some mistakes, not just a bad run Plan for this week is to focusing on each hand I will play. If I will not play 9k hands, nothing wrong. I am still shooting at NL 100 but I am walking on thin ice

Goals for past week/realization:
  • volume of hands: 9.000/6.929
  • meditation: 7x/7x
  • volume of studying: 10 hours/10 hours
  • volume of playing: 35 hours/21 hours
  • run 34 km/34 km
  • workout 6 times (3x running and 3x sport exercises)/6x

I don't know why but graph was completly different that It should be (I can see how much hands and how much profit I made on the site). However as I said I run bad with some mistakes so I was down for 250,45 $.

Goals for this week:
  • volume of hands: 9.000
  • meditation: 7x
  • volume of studying: 12 hours

Hi all!

It was good week but then on the weekend I didn't feel so good to play my A - game so I didn't play poker. That's why I failed at volume this week but better to play less hands than playing when you don't feel it

Goals for past week/realization:
  • volume of hands: 9.000/5.773
  • meditation: 7x/7x
  • volume of studying: 10 hours/10 hours

  • run 34 km/30 km
  • workout 6 times (3x running and 3x sport exercises)/6x

Graph:
Once again - some big untracked hands so tracker shows me complitely different graph. I was up 300,47$.

Hi all!

Last few weeks I have lost motivation for posting updates here, because tracker wasn't working well, so graphs was incorrect. It seems that with last update It's working fine.
However, shot on NL 100 went not that good. I decided to go back to NL 60/NL 40 and come back on NL 100 stronger. Plan is to play 50k hands on NL 40/NL 60 first.

I already played 16k hands on NL 40/NL 60 in last two weeks.

Graph for past week:


Goals for this week:
  • volume of hands: 10.000
  • meditation: 7x
  • volume of studying: 12 hours
  • volume of playing: 30 hours
  • run half marathon
