Hi guys.

I will try to keep this weekly posts a bit shorter, since I have a lot of stuff on sundays and wanna keep it short and simple.

I will also post my monthly results every end of the month and then I will tell a bit more about my month and what is going on etc...

About this week, I am a bit dissapointed, I was lacking focus, I was too tired all the time and didn't feel too good during all week. Then also my game was not on point. On friday I decided to go out with friends a bit to have some fun and to chill outside a bit to clear my head. Of course we went crazy and I didnt play on saturday haha. On saturday I took day off and was thinking alot of few things that were bothering me. I had a really nice saturday and cleared my head, had a nice lunch and I slept a lot!

Today (on sunday) I'm feeling much better and am totaly on point. Then also my game was at the top! So I guess i just needed 1 day off to clear my head a bit and now I am ready for a new working week.


Rating for previus week: 2,8 (from 1-5)
Graph for previous week:


For next week I want to:
-Rate my game at least 4.3
-Play 7/7 days
-300$ profit
-150 MTT's

Pictures of some deepruns:

1/55 zodiac 15$


1/250 8$ zodiac Rat opener (Finally I have this RAT avataaaaar)




Current Bankroll: 3217$

HI!

What was going on this week:

I started this week pretty bad, but manage to turn things around at the end of the week. Both Poker wise and other
stuff. I was not on point at the beginning, not focused, to worried about stupid stuf etc...
On wednesday and thursday I went for longer walk and was talking to myself a bit (haha) and listening to some podcasts
and reading books and then I was much better and also played better and then also results were good.

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: I think the worst was that I wanted to do to many things per once and when i was running out of time everyday
I was nervous and not satisfied since I didnt do everything. And then also worriyng for this too much was not smart.

GOOD: Good thing was that I quickly found those leaks and start working on them. I also did more sports than usually
and that really helps me.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: I will be more scheduled this week, I will worry less and most important I will be more
organised in general. AND NOT STRESS UP FOR EVERY LITTLE THING!

Keep/improve GOOD: I will stick to my sport plan during the week, every evening I will repeat what is important
for me next day. AND NOT STRESS UP FOR EVERY LITTLE THING!

Weekly graph:


What I want from upcoming week:

- play 7/7 days
- 150 MTT's
- 300€ profit
- Sport outside 4-times

new week.

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: When running bad, I was frustrated too much and that affected my game a bit.

GOOD: Did a lot of sports and had few very good study sessions which helped me alot since after those sessions, no matter Iw as running bad I still played
very good poker and got back my confidence.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: Every study sesh I will take a bit more serious, cuz that way I learn more and then no run bad can ruin my day, If I am confident in
my game then nothig else matters.

Keep/improve GOOD: I will keep doing sports every 2nd day and keep studying like I am at the moment. I like how most of my days look like currenntly
and I just wanna continue in this flow.

QUEE PASSAAA

What was going on this week:
Started this week solid. Played good, feeling good. On friday I woke up sick, my throat was killing me and later I got headache aswell.
So on Friday I played shorter session cuz of that but still played fine. Saturday and sunday I was legit in bed all day watching netflix and
rewatching lord of the rings after years Was fun but now my back hurts so much cuz of lying in bed all day. Today its monday I do feel like **** still
but hopefully tomorrow I will be able to grind normaly. Will try today aswell few tables a bit just to see how I feel.
So obv a bit dissapointed that I got sick cuz I couldn't reach my volume, but it is what it is I cannot do anything against that I just tried
to enjoy the time I was given cuz of this problems hehe.

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: Went outside with wet hairs which probably led me to illness LOOOOL
GOOD: I didnt get too tilted cuz of ilness (like back in the day, I was always angry that I am unable to do my thing), I think I handled
it great and also enjoyed the time I was force to spend in bed.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: WILL DEFENETLY DRY MY HAIR NEXT TIME BEFORE I WENT OUTSIDE, SPECIALY IF ITS -1 DEGREES

Keep/improve GOOD: Live for the exact moment I am in, not overthink too much about future and past. Defently meditating every day for last 1,5 years
is helping me with this BIIIIIG TIME!

Weekly graph:


What I want from upcoming week:

- play 5/7 days
- 120 MTT's
- 200€ profit
- Sport outside 2-times

(a bit less of everything since I don't know if I will be 100% better already)

Helloooo

What was going on this week:
This was pretty rough week. Mostly because of poor mindset, probbly still not recovered well from being sick and overall was kinda nervous and not in the right mood from the beginning
of the week. Because of that also my game was not on point (played my -B game all week) and therefore results are also poor. So overall probbly the worst week in last 3 months, but it is what
it is, now its time to repair the mistakes and I am ready for new week and new challenges. I did recover now, I feel much better arfter being sick for 10 days ish, I also went outside to do some sports and now I am fully back in the grind mode and I feel much better already.

I also think its good that hard days like these come because they just like grounded me, so that on the good days you remind yourself of the bad days and that you dont just celebrate but you say to yourself "mother****er you have to work HARD" and that you are always in the right mindset.

So I did take away alot from this week .


What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: My mindset was not on point and I didnt realize it soon enough. Also my reactions to things that I cannot influence were poor, I was too nervous all the time and was stressing too much over little things.

GOOD: I went outside for a walk. I did talk a lot with myself about things above, I tried to calm down with being honest with myself and that helps, it brings me to the right mental state and then its easier to handle those things.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: I will stop reacting recklessly, will try to remove unnecessary doubts about myself and in general stay more calm and on point when hard days like these come.

Keep/improve GOOD: I will no matter what continue to do my daily short workouts and every 2nd day I will do more intense workouts since I love to be exhausted from sports and it helps both my mental and physical health. I also want to hangout more with friends, so I will try to see some friends during the week not only play Warzone every evening lol I will keep working on my mindset that I wil be more and more calm in tough situations and thats it. Otherwise I am pretty happy with how I already improved in mindset in last 1,5 years.

Weekly graph: (here it is, the beautifull graph of this week I wouldn't say I played bad, just not my A game, I also ran very bad these week.)




What I want from upcoming week:

- play 7/7 days
- 170 MTT's
- 400€ profit
- Sport outside 3-times


Weekly highlights:

3/667 5$ MonsterStack on GG, my favourite morning MTT. I will not stop playing these one until I F*****G win it once

What was going on this week:

Nothing special this week. Played everyday, I still feel like I am running a bit bad and also not playing my best game. I did however play much better at the end of the week when also results were a bit better, so I guess bad run affects too much on my game, could be some mental game leaks, so I will try to improve in that aswell. Other than poker I had a lot of fun this week, friend of mine had a birthday and we had a dinner together and drink few beers. I was also doing workouts everyday so I do feel mich better now. I want to run 5km every 2nd day but my leg is causing me some problems at the moment but I think it will get better soon.
I did play a lot of games aswell with friends so that was good too.

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: My reactions on bad beats were bad. I tilted in the way that was furstrated with it too much and it affected my daily mood too much.
GOOD: Did a lot of sports, hangout with friends more than I usually do and again I tried to bring as much positive energy to people around me as possible.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: I will re-read the book about mental game, or at least some chapters in it. I will study a bit more that when I run bad I will not be as tilted since I will be sure I was playing good. Also I will be more focused during my sessions.

Keep/improve GOOD: I will keep running 5km's every 2nd day and do workouts every day of the week. I will keep try to be better for few % with people around me and talk with them more often.

Weekly graph:


What I want from upcoming week:

Impressive consistency sticking to the game plan for a full year and steadily moving up, I imagine like 90% of players starting up would have failed by now. Sounds like you're still enjoying the process so don't see a reason why you can't succeed, GL! How long are your sessions and how many tables do you play?

Hi man!

First I have to thank you for nice words! I cannot stress it enough how much it means to me that I hear something like that from other people! I like every kind of feedback here and that is why I started weekly blogs in first place, so THANK YOU!

I do agree with what you said, a lot or lets say, majority of players give up, but that is in my opinion because they don't really enjoy poker as a career/proccess/long term grind. I simply love everything about poker, it has already changed my life to muuuch better and I just started. Not because of money but because of all other things, because of puting my life in order, because of poker I am interested in something so much that I want to study everyday, play everyday and get better everyday, it drives me towards, it motivates me and therefor it makes me happy.

I like to be challenged all the time and poker does that very well. It is indeed beautifull game and therefore I am consistent simply because It already gave me so much. I really changed alot as a person as I started going serious with poker. AND I LOVE IT!!

Sorry for long message, sometimes I get emotinal, but it is what it is, its how I feel haha and I wanna share it!

My sessions of playing are usually around 8hours (I start registring MTT's at around 7am till 12am and the longest it can last is till 4pm ish). I play 9 tables all the time and at 9am where I have the most action I have around 10-12 tables, but never more than 12. I have 10+ tables only if I have timebank on every table and if I am playing my A game. Otherwise its 9-10 tables mostly.

How about you ? also grinding MTT's ?

What was going on this week:

Not gonna lie, the best poker week so far. I played my best poker, mindset was on point and I also had best week result wise.

I had 2 days off due to some family meeting and one day I had a worker at my appartment so I couldnt play. I did however really enjoy those 2 days off, got some rest, got some fun (got drunk waaaaay toooo much lol).


What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: I got too drunk. Like I dont mide when I get drunk, but sometimes its just toooo much and this time was for sure not good.
GOOD: No matter the good run and big wins and playing great, I was able to reset my mind properly and play my A game everyday even tho I won big and was verry happy and everything. Ofcourse this should be standard but since I didnt yet have 1K+ day I couldnt imagine the feeling around that. So I am very happy I was on point and next day I completly erased that from memory and just played from beginning again.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: Dont drink everything they offer you next time (lol drinking fish big time).

Keep/improve GOOD: I will keep going with my current flow. I like how things are going since I am on point most of the time, even when I am not I become quickly aware of it and I get myself together pretty fast. I like that I am also helping others alot, talking and listening to people alot, spending time with people I care about and trying to be as good to them as possible. I will keep doing a lot of sports, always have some time for myself since I found out that I really enjoy being alone aswell(reading, listening to podcasts, learning new stuf etc..)

What was going on this week:

Hi guys. Pretty insane week for me. Everything about poker went well, I was playing great most of the time, I studied very good during the week and therefore the results were great aswell!

I am happy with how things are going ATM, obviously results wise is great but not just that, I am proud on the fact how I aproach the game, how good I play and also how good I study. I will keep doing the same and show everyday what I am capable off and show everyday the right attitude on the tables and away from the tables.

I will stop doing sports for most of december and continue with my workout, running and other sport goals in january/february. Thats simply because of time and priorities, this is just not the top1 priority at the moment.

I am still doing my daily routine workouts (pushups and exercises for my leg problems) and I will go hiking in the mountains a bit more now since its a lot of snow here in Slovenia at the moment and I will replace this with other sport activities.

I am also happy that I am aware of the time I have and that I know how to spend it well and that I dont overwhelm myself cuz of lack of time and still spend it as good as I can. OBV with playing most of the time and studing alot I dont have planty of free time, but when I do I spend it well. So thats GREAT!!

In next week I will play also 2 live tourneys, so my online volume will be a bit smaller, but hey, maybe we bink live tourney that would be awesome!

I will also do yearly report at the end of this month.

I wish you all beautiful new week and a lot of success !

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: I didnt organize my diet well enough. I didnt eat enough and I didnt eat at right time.
GOOD: Everyday I showed the right attitude behind the tables, studied great played great and in general was on point with all poker related stuff. I also have 2 of my own students which I help in poker and I think our sessions were also on point and great!

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: I will organize my food meals a bit better, I will set time when and what I want to eat, since that helps me feeling better in general.

Keep/improve GOOD: U will continue to show the right attitude everyday, to be consistent with my plans and to continue to work as I am working right now. I will keep being a bit better to people around me and try to help as much as I can.

What was going on this week:

A bit different week this time. Since I had 2 live tournaments I didnt play much online. Only 2 day online and even that i shouldn't play since I dont like playing afternoon and I forced myself and therefore my game was not on point.

Anyway, live tournaments went good!

1st one was 100€ one day tournaments which had 32 entries and I finished 5th for mincash 230€.
2nd one was two day event, which on Day1 I didnt play the best, I still played decent (my B+ game) and finished the day with 23bb's so I made my first live day2 yeeeeeey

I started day2 as the last in chips but I played my A game and due to some lucky cards when we were on stone bubble I was chip leader. When we got ITM I also got one leader up and then made a HUGE mistake ICM wise and punted off half of my stack. After that I had around 6 bb's and then busted quickly on 15th place for 550€. (tournament had 220 entried and first 21 were ITM).

I did play very good, probbly my best live poker ever till that mistake. I did the spot next day in HRC and got maximum out of it. So despite the HUGE mistake I learned a lot of new stuff, specialy for live play. I am still happy cuz I am getting more and more experiende in LIVE POKER, but also a bit angry for mistake, as I shoudl be. So all good, we played, made mistake, learned from it maximum and next time we will be better prepared and crush even more!

I also had few very nice dinner's this week and was hanging out with my friend a bit more then usually. I will now spend a bit more time with girlfriend, friends and family during holidays and then back to GRINDSKYYY on 2nd january.

I wanna play around 5 more days this year and then completly off to spend time with my loved ones and specialy my girlfriend who is supporting me as nobody ever did! BIG UP FOR HER, she is the ****ing GOAT!!!

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: I skipped some daily habits because of change of schedule and next time I dont wanna do that, since it affects my daily mood too much.
GOOD: Helped others alot and was being a bit better to everyone around me all the time.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: Next time I change schedule for whatever reasons I will not skip my daily habits and also I wanna be better organized with my eating schedule and food preparation.

Keep/improve GOOD: Will keep trying to be as good as I can be to people around me and try to help as many as possible.

Hi guys!

Since one year has passed since I first posted (ish), its now time that I say few words for this crazy 2021.

So first of all I want to say that now I am playing full time. All thougt this was my wish, I still didn't expect it to happen this year already.

So this is for me far the biggest achievement in my life. I am very happy for that and aswell very proud. But the real grind only starts here. From now on I have to work as hard as I was now and the most imporant, keep enjoying in the process.

I'm playing full time from 1.8.2021, so around 5 months. From then I played 600 MTT's on avarage per month and earned 1.3K on avarage per month. My goal for 2022 is mostly to increase volume and to keep grinding and studying in same flow as I am doing now.

I currently live alone in my appartment and my monthly expenses are very low (around 600€). So I'm pretty calm with my LIVE BANKROLL and also my POKER BANKROLL is optimal for the stakes I am playing. So I'm under no pressure. I am playing ABI 7$ and my BR is 4.3K. I'm not planning to move up in stakes ATM, I want to be able to play 12 tables at once with my A-game and to be top 3 regs on my stakes and then I will move up. I currently play 9 tables easy, also 10 is not a problem, with 11 and 12 I struggle some times. About regs, I think I'm one of the best on my stakes in morning schedule, but for sure not top 5 yet.

But anyway, moving up in stakes in not a priority for me. Only priority is to play as much as I can and study a lot and to incsrease volume.

My only wish for 2022 is to continue in the same flow. To keep being disciplined, consistend and full of positive energy. Resutls will come by themself.

I don't have any special goals or any money goals, however I will writte down few other goals that I want to achieve this year.

Graph for 2021:


Goals for 2022:

- Play 7800 MTT's
- Keep being consistend, disciplined and hard working.
- Read at least 6 books this year
- Do sports at least 4 days per week
- Run 10km and 20km marathon
- About money, my only goal is to achieve monthly profit 2K on avarage, so if I'll make 25K this year I will be more than happy.



I wish you all the best in 2022 and to have a lot of fun! LETSGOO! )))

QUEE PASSAAA

What was going on this week:
Nothing special this week. I played 6 days and 1 day I went snowboarding here in Slovenian alps, place called VOGEL. I posted picture bellow. It was sooo nice and it gave me more energy and good vibes

About my game, I could play a bit better, the only thing I miss is FOCUS. IF i gain a bit more focus, I will play my A game all the time. So I am currently working on that, I want to play as good as possible everyday.

Results were good this week. If I would play this few % better, they would be even higher.

I also like it alot how I am stuying atm. I really look into all spots that I didnt know what to do, everyday that I play. So I study around 2hours at least per day. Plus I coach 2 of my poker buddies where we study together, plus I have 1v1 with my coach almost every week once. Sundays and saturdays I study less, so only around 30mins and probbly sundays after the session I will try to have completly off.

In general I feel very good and I like how things are going atm.
Hopefully this continiues that I can continiue living a dream playing poker full time and having fun every day!

What did I do BAD this week and what did I do GOOD this week:

BAD: Reacted to things too quick and without thinking.
GOOD: I've read alot, spend a lot of time alone, which I like for some reason LOL . I helped other people.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair/remove BAD: When something unpleasant happens, I will not react Immidietly, but will accept it and think it through and then react. I will no make to many future plans and try to be even more present.

Keep/improve GOOD: Keep helping people around me, keep reading alot, keep edjucating about things that I'm interested in. But main focus still stays on stuying and getting better in poker.

Weekly graph:

HI!

What was going on this month:
Quite swingy month. My mental game was not on point. I had some anxiety probles during this month, which is not new for me since I'm facing anxiety and panic attacks for last 10 years. But I became quite an "expert" in that field haha so they are not here anymore, at least not most of the time. This month was a bit more stressfull, all tho I dont really know why since everything is gucci. But some times this anxiety just appears, I have to face it and thats is. I am better now, I am talking more with people in general, I try to talk with myself alot, explore even more about human body etc, since that calms me down. So I think nothing special, its mostly cuz of crazy december and then it hits me a bit later haha.
Also I was not doing enough sports and eating a bit unhealthy and then my immune system is not ready for a bit "tougher" days hehe.

Poker went okay this month. I could play better, so plan for next month is just to play a bit better a bit more focused. Would rate myself 3.8 (ish) for this month.

I will do a bit different approach this month. I will play every day this month, at least I want so, so if I dont get sick or smth else that I cannot control, then I will play 28 days. I will study a bit less tho, so since I will not have days off from grinding, I will ahve saturday and sunday probbly off from stuying after the sesh. Monday - friday normal schedule of course I think I am studying a lot more then I should maybe so I think this will be even better for me

What did I do BAD this month and what did I do GOOD this month:

BAD: Not enough sports, unhealthy food, not being present enough.
GOOD: Studied a lot, talking with people a lot, reading a lot of books.

What I will do to remove/repair BAD things and what I will do to keep/improve GOOD things:

Repair BAD: Do sports 5 times per week and 2 times just walks. Eat more fruits and in general eat more small meals per day and more healthy ones.

Keep GOOD: Keep reading alot, keep studying alot and keep talkinh with people, about poker, about other things, being even more social that I already am.

Monthly graph:


What I want from upcoming month:

- play 28 days
- 700MTT's
- 2K€ profit
- Do sports 5 times per week

Monthly highlights:

2/478 10€ winamax


2/564 6€ ACR

Hi!

Another month behind me.

Started poorly, but then I dropped in stakes a bit and added tables and now I'm feeling much better and playing also much much better. Now I play avg buyin 8€ with 12 tables all the time, which makes it around 35 MTT's per day. I play at least 6 days per week.

Graph for March:


In April I'll have simialr volume, just few MTT's less, since I'll go for a 4 days trip in Belgium.

In April I wan't only to play as good as possible and to focus only on performing at my highest and that will surely bring also better results.

I'm feeling confident, also I'm workin on my game a lot so I'm not afraid of anything.

So going strongly in to new month






Highlights:

2/48 10€ 6max


2/605 5€ KO


1/91 6€ 6max ACR


1/76 10€ KillTheFish


Bankroll: 4686$

This is a great thread and you've made some awesome progress - congrats!

Do you think low stakes MTTs online are still quite beatable?

What bankroll do you think is required for $215 MTTs?

Good luck man!
