Following gl. I'm in a similar spot I play to much and miss out on real life. Might hit you up for since coaching when I have the money.

Thanks man. Lol im probably the cheapest coach out there, i dont even know what i should take but usually have just done whatever the person can afford to charity. Seeing some of the hourlies people are charging makes my blood boil lmao. Now i have two guys that i do cfp with and thats plenty for me, i dont really coach to make money so if your tight on $ and feel i can be of help send me ur discord in PM and ill try to give you some direction and advice free of charge obviously.

trust me , its worth it, he opened my eyes on the right approach toward the game. but at the same time i want keep him for myself :3 huehuehue

After a 100 abi straight down start to the month the 3 last sessions have really recovered it nicely, looks alot more beautiful without the nosedive early on huh . Study up and down in efficiency and energy but doing something every day, some days more and some less.

Month going well. Did some light study today and broke a huge 1-day losing streak Might be slightly inaccurate due to manually uploading hhs but w rb should be around 9 atleast.

Well this is a bit silly now. Had a day 2 and then took 11th in a 109 100k that lasted for 11h so wayyy longer session than planned/more games, table count was good but whatever. Happens, not gonna fall in to these long sessions bs again.

Last 6 weeks (probably around 50 on the dot w rb)

Noice

very impressive work ethic and well deserved results!

what's the range of buy ins you play currently?

Whats even more noice is i 1 tabled the h82 pko hyper on stars on my laptop because im not disciplined and was bored. Won it tho, monthly:



Thx appreciate that!

Well technically i guess 22-250, but i dont play every 250 and if i play a 22 101% sure i maxlate it. I do maxlate alot of my lower end and it adds up, today i took 2nd in a 27 6 max for 1.7k, i have infinite of binks in acr 33s that i maxlate etc. But my abi is around 70ish so my bread and butter is like 55-130 reg speeds (both pko and non pko) but i play alot of 215s and some 250s as well, just refusing to be a bitch about top end buyins, just staying (somewhat) disciplined w re entrying etc.

Lol absolutely unreal. Bink a 215 pko for 3.6, 2nd 215 bh for 1.5, shipped 82bb for 2 something. 2nd 66 turbo pko, and a bunch of cashes im forgetting for another insane day. To the guy who saidd i make it look easy, yeah i get it looks easy at this point because it is But i know better than to think this is the new normal, downswings will come and i try not to ride this wave too high and honestly feel kind of like imposter syndrome or wtf its called where i think stupid **** like im not good enough to win this much. Well guess what bitch, i did. Just keep focusing on my day-to-day and slowly improving my habits, ignoring all the negative voices and all the self doubt, im definately not perfect in any way in studying, amount/efficiency but im consistently showing up every day and trying to improve upon it, and since i got my db reviews (last time i recommend those at this point if u want to improve and have $ it literally has done more for me than all of the other 8 years of coaching and "study" etc combined in a few months. And also, to vlad cun tzin. This is how recs should speak to you in chat (explaining how pkos work... hu in 82bb ) hope ur ds is as bad as ever!



Month/today lol:



Dont be ****s,
yours truly
Blommish

One of my favorite threads, although I don't MTT

Thanks man i really appreciate these posts, and you dont mtt yet*

Pretty rough start to the session, was stuck a few k for sure and then started scrambling back, said id fire the 525 apl d1 if i wasnt max down and just not feeling it, so i played it and have a lil day 2 tmrw, realistically i ladder once or twice and get a bounty for a 2k cash but a sweat is always fun Got some huge bluffs through and one tabled it all the way, feel like i played it really really well except possibly for some bbl stuff because pkos are rough.

Bricked it quite quick. Doubled once and then lost TT<33 for a decent pot. 1.4k cash, Bo-hoo, taking today of to study. Making sure i dont get complacent when things are going so well, i did slip with some long sessions and its fine, back on track and grind tomorrow probably.

Studied quite a bit, going to walk in the winter hell to the store, look at some more and get up to grind again.

"As a rule, man is a fool. When its hot, he wants it cool; when its cool, he wants it hot. Always wanting, what is not"

thanks for sharing. It seems i was the lazy grasshopper (~1k MTTs in past 6 months).

Well that doesnt necessarily make you lazy, depending on your life situation and what your goals are, it might be both impressive or it might be unexcusable imo

Short session today, gonna sleep again and get up around midnight (have a $630 ticket) then considering starting laate evening rather then eeeaarly mornings, but undecided yet. Played this 2 times and made HU both lol, got a lil boink today tho:





Doubt anyone will listen through a 1.5h vid, but id recommend it:



"You cant own success, you can only rent it. And rent is due every day"

,

Not much to say really, took 15th in a 215 300k for 1.7k, bricked alot, played high variance (3 630s, sattied in tho). Then won a bounty jackpot for 1.3k, made d2 of 215 1m with heaps of chips and rounded it of with a (by quite some margin) year high bink of nearly 16k.

Im ****ing exhausted, but **** me it feels like my "hard" work is paying off. Now its time to really get my **** together.


Month (35 atleast w rb):



Last 7ish weeks:

yeah you are right. Quit the Job that was paying the bills and sold my car to have some cash while figuring out if i can make Poker a career. It was a rough time as i recognized i was full of bullshit and kinda welcomed more of it on a daily basis which is a dangerous way to go and lose control. The good thing tho is that i am in a lucky position to give myself another ~5-6 months time without having any responsibilities. Can fully focus on getting better daily and moving up the stakes if i keep my expenses on bare minimum (rent/food/gym/dog).

e: congratz for the big score and thanks for sharing the link!

The responsible advice would be that it sounds like you should have figured out if its viable a bit more before you quit your job, but im all for yoloing and doing what feels right. However if ur doing it and barely playing recreational volume (exaggeration) how are you going to see if it can work? Id make a plan for the next 6 months to make sure that you dont just waste them too (which is my impression, correct me if im wrong).

Yup, improving consistently (no matter how little. any >0% improvements = amazing), will do wonders, but you gotta be careful with the bsing urself, sometimes its hard to tell when ur lying to urself about the progress ur making/the effort u are putting in to make progress. Progress isnt always so trackable and it can take a long time for change to be noticable depending on what it is, i think its crucial to have some sort of mindset or whatever that helps u remember even though its not happening much it will if u just keep trying to better urself. Consistently improving + time = bingo. Best of luck buddy.

As for poker had a bunch of stacks/runs, chopped the 88 apl 3way w 2 regs for 3kish and finally got the 630 through to have a real fun monday session:

Hey mate, thanks for your reply and the nice words. I have came to the same conclusion and looking forward to a grindheavy winter and then re-evaluate after 6 months. Although I haven't made good progress in terms of poker past last months I am thankful for those experiences that were eye-opening on certain topics.

Well there you go, go get it and i wish u the best of luck

Ended november losing alot playing way higher variance (planned).
Stopped and made 10k the last 3 sessions, won 4/4 fts today lol. Avg entrants have been 48 during the last 3 sessions which is ridic low.

More importantly im looking for someone who is very good with excel/making sheets for poker study and am willing to pay obviously, or if someone knows relevant tutorials those would be appreciated too. I need to improve the way i track everything im doing early on studying a topic, usually i go about it by starting as wide/covering all of the topic, then from there narrow down to the point where its very digestible without losing quality, and from there i actually learn how those strategies work postflop and why, but im so **** with sheets and cant seem to find many good tutorials that fits what im looking for, so if anyone knows any tutorial/can coach excel for $ send a pm

Happy to give it a shot - will pm you with details
