Hello everyone !

I'm back to tracking my journey with you guys. When I look back, only time I managed to be consistent was when I had some kind of social pressure. Here are my previous threads:

This are my lifetime results :



Daily schedule :
- 14:00 Wakeup
- 14:30 Gym
- 16:00-18:00 Screenshots from grind/BBZ/Mammoth seminars (Monday-Friday)
- 18:00 Poker session (registration of slow tournaments till 23:30)
- 04:30 Going to sleep

Fridays off with seminar at 17:00.

Weekly goals:
- 250 Tournaments
- 7/7 Gym
- Phone usage not allowed while in bedroom

Monthly goals :
- 1000 Tournaments
- 6000 € of EV

This Thread will be updated every Friday. More information about what tournaments I play, where I play them, what stakes I play, what I do in the gym, how I study, what I study will be shared along the way.

Let's go Warriors !

TID, mang

Will you be streaming some of your online grinds ?

Not the great start of the thread. When I first posted, I was talking to a friend about running a thread and decided to not post because I would give too much information away to competition.

However in last few weeks I again hit inconsistency which was repetitive in my recent history (since I started to play evenings). I somehow don't operate well when my biggest task of the day (playing poker session) is delayed to evening.

When I played evening schedule my routine looked like this :

Wake up 13:45
Seminar 14:00
Gym 15:30-16:50
Poker session 18:00
Sleep around 05:00

Here is good example that I'm doing lesser priority things first before the "big stone". The only time when I was consistent (hitting 30 working days in a row) was when I played mornings.

I started playing poker full time at the end of 2019. And since then only consistent period was first 1.5 years. Recent 2.5 was total mess. That is also seen on graph(volume,results and my body condition).

Also another indicator of consistency was writing a blog. That thing probably kept my motivation levels high since I had social pressure to perform.

Poker goals :
Play 45-55 Tournaments a day
Attend Mammoth seminars when they run (5x per week)
Do all the screenshots each day

Poker plan :
play 10$-55$ tournaments for first 60 days, if both months are in 3k+ zone we start adding 162$ Pacific Rim, 82$ Pacific warm up, GG 105$, ACR 109$ and some others which I currently don't recall.
atm I have 1.1k->1.3k in buy-ins which leads to 150-300$/playing day, 4500$- 9000$ /month. If we add above tournaments we could reach 1.8k-2.2k which results 270$-450$/playing day, 8100$-13500$/month.

DimaOgon achieved back2back years with netting over 120k$. So it's definitely possible.

Fitness goals:
- get six pack

For this I will get in touch with my trainer and follow exactly diet/exercise plan

Daily routine:
- Wake up 05:15 (cold shower, coffee, go trough improvement notes)
- Starting session 05:30
- Seminar 14:00
- Gym 15:00
- Free time from 17:00
- Go to bed 21:00

I understand there will be times when I will be tired, "burned out" in pain, but I need to push trough. Like in Army, there is no choice. I need to get this muscle back for uncomfort and do it anyway.

In 2 days I'm going on vacation so my plan will be adjusted accordingly. Shorter sessions and play half of the days. Update will be also delayed to next Sunday and then proceed updating 1x/week.

Most likely not. But I'm thinking about 6 table view with no cam + music with occasional commentary.

Okay.
- I managed to put in 2 sessions on vacation
- Attended 4/5 seminars
- Did all the screenshots
- Did 5/7 workouts
- Did contact Fitness coach for meal and workout plan



I had a lot of time on vacation. After some days of thinking I figured out that is the best to play highest $/game tournaments. So I created myself schedule which has potential to make 300-500€/day on EV. And if my ROI will be bigger than 15% I shouldn't face more than 9.000$ downswing. My ABI from now will be 40-50$. Playing everything from 10$-162$ on all sites. 36 Tournaments in total. If I play every day, we can reach over 1k tournaments/month.


What happens if I go on bigger swing than 9.000$ ?

I will play the same schedule but sell everything above 50$. It's do or die scenario. I need to make it on this scheudle, there is no other option.

Last week results:



Goals for next week:

- Play at least 252 Tournaments
- 7/7 Gym sessions
- Attend 5/5 Mammoth seminars

Crushed all 3 goals.

Next week :
-II-

Past week results:

sick man, love to see a disciplined man accomplish his goals, inspires me to do the same.
I have a general MTT question: What do you think is the top ROI achievable with an abi of 30$ without table selection, just playing the games on your schedule? Over a big sample of course, you think 50% is doable?

On Ipoker or some NJ pools possible. More like 40-45%.

Crushed all goals.

Next week :
-II-

Missed The first goal by 10 tournaments due to maintance on Stars and ACR.
7 Gym sessions done and also training and meal plan are in progress. Booked 40 hours with Fitness coach.
Attended all seminars




Goals for next week:

- Play at least 252 Tournaments
- 7/7 Gym sessions
- Attend 5/5 Mammoth seminars

Played 7 tournaments too little. I tilted one session and closed registration window earlier.
7/7 Gym done
Attended all seminars


July recap :

Profit/loss : +11,834$
Count : 1,086






I'm BE without lucky jackpot hit. That means I'm most likely not 15-20% ROI player. I'm seeking help and doing everything that is in my power to beat this schedule with higher ROI


Goals for next week :
- Play at least 252 Tournaments
- 7/7 Gym sessions
- Attend 5/5 Mammoth seminars

Had 2 days off last week.

1 Day for database review and explanation of those leaks with a coach. The other day I was too exhausted to play.

6/7 Gym days.

Attended all seminars.


Past week results :


Goals for next week :
- Play at least 180 Tournaments
- 6/7 Gym sessions
- Attend 5/5 Mammoth seminars


Next week I need to take 2 days off schedule due to family visit and 1 day of coaching session for PKO's.

Okay, today I have time for a bit longer post. Last 2 weeks were quite interesting in realization of my current knowledge and how to proceed in the future.

Few days ago I had coaching with one of the best PKO players on the planet for 5h. We adjusted my playing schedule and covered variety of topics which lead me to :

- Play 7 tables max
- Study more
- I bought pio edge for postflop ICM

Last session I had, I made over 200 screenshots and realized after 2 days of hard study that I probably blundered 200-300$ EV if not more. ATM my biggest leaks are :

- Identifying how to VPIP range when +RP and -RP is included in spot ( ICM PKO spots)
- ICM postflop(everything) Understanding how +5% RP / -10% RP / +15% RP influence my strategy
- Still struggling in identifying If I wanna RFI only or LIMP only in chip EV PKO spots with -RP on other stacks


So my goals for next week is to study until I cover all screenshots with fundamental understanding how to play that spot + 1 future street. Then play and repeat the process.

- Attend all 5 seminars
- Follow the gym plan (6-7 training's a week, depends on how good the recovery is)

Results for past week:


Gym progress :



As you see in above image my weight is pretty steady. Which is good indicator since I have more intense training's than before when I started to work with personal trainer. My food intake is same every day and I'm feeling hungry all the time. So that should be good sign of being in calorie deficit.

Here are example of my training's:

A)



B)



C)



D)


And then I have for each one different variation (A2, B2 etc...).


Pictures before I started to work with personal trainer on 23.07.2023 :

5 seminars : done
Gym plan : done

This weeks graph :



Played 3 sessions. Had 1 day off to visit family, the rest I studied.


Next week goals:
- Attend all 5 seminars
- Follow gym plan
- Play when you cover all screenshots

- Attended 4/5 Seminars
- Followed gym plan
- Played 1 session


Past week results:



August recap :

Profit/loss : +8721$
Count : 277




Body weight: 74.1kg







From now on I will post monthly.

Goals for next month :
- Study 2 days, play 3rd day
- Attend all mammoth seminars
- Follow gym plan (6 trainings/week + rest day)


After that month I will reevaluate if 10 playing days are the highest EV choice. Atm I played when I finished with all the spots from previous session, but that usually takes me between 2-4 days. So in that next month I'm sacraficing studying to play more. In the future when I generate more and more knowledge I should lean towards 1:1 ratio between studying and playing.

Mtts are always fun to follow. U seem extremely structured which is a great quality to have to make it long term. We play quite a bit and out of curiosity i gotta ask why u have the img u have on gg?

Gl with your goals. See ya at the river

Yo, I checked you threads as well. And I understand why its hard to keep posting and find good reasoning. I do it because of selfish reasons. It helps me to be consistent due to social preassure.

Regarding image on GG (Andrew Tate). He taught me lessons which my father couldn't and made me realize how soft and irresponsible I am towards my future and family. That's the reason I have him for profile picture. To remind me of that.

Yeah i think it can be highly personal why its important to do it and for some it may be, for some it may not be.
I am not asking out of judgement, i have personal friends who are very successful who view him practically as a role model but i just cant wrap my head around it. I just think anything he has to teach plenty of people who arent also ethically compromised (imo) also teach, find it interesting why so many and especially people who do well would possibly be looking to him for advice, i dont listen much to him but have an idea, can you go in more on depth on what he taught you?a

Also does it make sense to you that someone who knows how to get infinitely rich which he seems to claim why would they sell that for 49$ per month or whatever. They are already getting rich no? Is that maybe how he gets rich? I know he does other things but that seems like a straight up pyramid scheme.

I also learned nothing from my father, maybe only thing i learned was what i dont want to become and i really think he is a strange role model, although as i said im not saying this with judgement, i just want to hear your opinion on something i think we look at differently.

When I listened to him I just looked into information which I could use to help myself. So I can't tell much about his academy or products he is selling. The biggest things which made a lot of sense to me are :

- How to be a man
- What being a man means
- What masculinity is




What I would suggest if you are interested in him is to listen to this and use your own reasoning and logic and take the best out of it :


If above link doesn't work copy this one. I have no idea how to use links in this platform.

And I don't wanna argue about it, because its just worthless for me at the moment to defend any point regarding that topic. I gain nothing and lose a lot of time.

Well i didnt really want to argue, i was interested in learning more about your opinion that differs from mine. Im pretty curious and i dont mind disagreeing respectfully, i think its pretty healthy to disagree and challenge your thoughts/beliefs or have conversation (about most things, not the extreme stuff like racism etc). I wont try to convince you about anything but i mean come on there are plenty of ways to learn that from people who are not full of ****. Learning how to be a man from him is an interesting choice. But if you think its pointless i leave it there and wish you the best of luck, cya at the tables for sure.

I was going to listen as open minded as possible but cmon man 5h?

I understand you. When I wrote that I don't want to discuss it further, it meant for whole audience. Because this thread will fastly shift from its core. If you would like do discuss about it and challenge thoughts add me on discord : atathegreat#1231

Yeah 5h is a lot to digest, especially if you are sceptical about the guy. I get you.

I did add him and ended up having some great conversation and totally learned some things, what i expected the talk to be was not what it was. I really am interested in how your journey goes and think you have an interesting view on things. Following for sure @ cya at the tables

Just subbed with e-mail notifications.
Love the plan, discipline, gym, MTTs, Tate Mindset, Goals.

My favorite video is about his cam business and how in the beginning he had 100% control over the keyboards while the women entertained viewers, Tate himself sexted the men motivating them to send more donations. Tate even laughed and joked how his sext skill were so sick that some men went into debt due to donations. Pretty funny and motivating.
