Hello my name is Nikola and i am writing this challenge to make my self accountable, responsible, and possibly make some friends in poker.
I am basically killing my self with slots, i take my poker winnings and dump them into slots, and vice versa taking sometimes when i win huge on slots i go and play higher stakes where i don't have good bankroll for and where i don't have an edge so...

This are the rules :

Starting bankroll is 100e

5nl -> 40BI in EV without rakeback move to 10nl
10nl -> 40BI in EV without rakeback move to 20nl
20nl -> 40BI in EV without rakeback move to 50nl
50nl -> 40BI in EV and I am done. Maybe i continue to post down the road.
This apply only if i run good , ill need to win 40BI both ways

Here is something about me, i work on construction in field of geodesy as a surveyor. I am 26 years old and i have been playing poker since i was like 17 but recreationally home games have sometimes a bink and so on... I mainly play cash games because that does not require time for me to play long sessions.
In lost couple months i am really into studying cash and i think i improved and i will try to improve my self and my game.
I will try to update this post session after session. And probably will add something to the list on improving in the future.
And maybe i will post some hands from time to tame. See you at the tables


First session :


Session : +35e
Bankroll : 135

Thanks everybody for the support i appreciate it.

So with this post i will write about DAY 2 and DAY 3.

DAY 2

Day 2 started great, i played really sharp i was like up 2-3 buy ins after 400 hands. And suddenly my concentration and focus was gone. I was playing like idiot.
Ended up day with 1-2 BI in + but me EV was negative around 1-2 BI i was really upset.
Also Purged 30e on slots ~ 6BI

DAY 3

Day 3, i come from work i make my coffee. I am really sharp and feeling good playing pretty aggressive and its paying off. Really satisfied with my play, in course of couple thousand hands.
I won 700bb pot

iPoker - €0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 110.2 BB
BB: 344.4 BB
UTG: 106.2 BB
Hero (CO): 440.2 BB
BTN: 100 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has A A

UTG raises to 3 BB, Hero calls 3 BB, fold, fold, BB raises to 12.4 BB, UTG calls 9.4 BB, Hero raises to 40.8 BB, BB calls 28.4 BB, fold

Flop: (94.4 BB, 2 players) 5 Q 3
BB checks, Hero bets 47.2 BB, BB calls 47.2 BB

Turn: (188.8 BB, 2 players) 9
BB checks, Hero checks

River: (188.8 BB, 2 players) 6
BB checks, Hero bets 352.2 BB, BB calls 256.4 BB

Hero shows A A (Flush, Ace High)
(Pre 82%, Flop 92%, Turn 95%)
BB shows K K (Flush, King High)
(Pre 18%, Flop 8%, Turn 5%)
Hero wins 691.6 BB

Currently running 10BI over EV but still playing good, and running good witch is better then play good or bad and run bad as well.
Currently 18BI Profits and 8BI profit in EV.


And here are the results :



6000 Hands : +89.17e
Bankroll : : 160e
Rakeback : Around 10e waiting to collect with the bonus rakeback i am willing to collect all together to have better calculation on it.

Also i would like to add that plan for the future:
Play more hands.
Play 1 table and try to tag properly players that u have information's on.
Study for big session on Sunday when i have day off.

Thank you all for the support. Hope u run good as me.

Have you thought about self banning yourself from the casino features? Sure you might win on slots but it's mathematically impossible to ever win on them in the long run.

I'd just hate to see you do well only to spew your winnings and have to quit all together.

Really don't know, but i am fighting myself to stay disciplined hopefully would make it. This is why i started to blog, to keep my self accountable for action and to remind myself daily not to play it.
Thank you for advice.

Hello grinders.

I haven't updated thread about for a while.

I have been busy with work and personal stuff, need to learn language because i will move to Germany during this year. As well i am going to get my driver license.
So i have withdrawn my funds, and these were the results.

I will reset the challenge and i will be pretty busy in next period so i will play and study when i have free time.

Ill try to put 10-20k hands a month.
And try to update this tread once a week.

Results.






See you at the tables
